Bitter Sweet, chapter 5
In a perfect world, this could never happen, in a perfect world, you'd still be here.
Still Billie's POV
All of the bad news was sinking in.
First were the words of the doctor. "I'm very sorry but there is little chance of survival for your friend, we may have to turn off the machines soon." This ripped my heart into tiny little pieces. I felt like I had murdered my best friend... no my brother!
Next was the phone call from the cops, it turns out they believe Jason's car crash had been an attempted suicide.
Thirdly, the cuts that Holly and Tre had found... some of them dated back to a couple of months ago according to the doctor. So Mike had been feeling down for ages, yet none of us realized.
And lastly we still don't know where Holly ran off to, was she safe? Is she gonna do anything stupid?
No matter how many times Tre told me that this was not my fault I knew it was, hell I could even see it in his eyes, Tre knew it too.
It was getting dark outside and I started to panic about Holly.
After 10 minutes of me complaining about worrying, but not wanting to leave Mike Tre offered to go look for her.
I happily agreed and so lead us up to this point.
We are now allowed to see Mike so I'm sitting in a white room with the steady beep of the machines, letting me know that Mike was in fact alive.
I was scared. He looked dead already I couldn't take it. I just wanted him to be alright.
I jumped as the door opened, revealing Tre and Holly, who were soaked to the bone. I hadn't realized it was raining outside... I hadn't realized a lot lately.
I stood up and pulled Holly into a hug. Her shaking body embraced mine and I whispered into her ear.
"Where were you?"
She sniffed and answered "Mike's house."
I nodded and she looked up with sad eyes.
"What's wrong, why'd you run off?" I asked
"I did something terrible." she sobbed
I used to think that I was strong, until the day it all went wrong. I think I need a miracle to make it through, yeah, I wish that I could bring you back; I'm wishing I could turn back time!
