Cactus

(Avi's POV)

I think she's waking!!

But wait, I'm holding her hand.  If she wakes up to me sobbing like crazy while holding her hand, what would she think of me?

I quickly put her hand back down to where it used to be.

Suddenly, the door opened.  Scott came in first, followed by Mitch, Kirstie, Kevin and Esther.

"Hey, guys!!  What's up?"  I jumped in a panic.

"Uh....Avi are you okay?"  Scott asked.

I quickly walked toward them, and got away from Ashley's bed.  

I don't get it, why am I so nervous.

"Avi, seriously, what's going on.  Did anything happen when we're not here?"  Mitch asked.

"Nope."  I answered. 

Then I heard a loud gasp, Ashley's waking up.

I suddenly feel so excited but also so nervous.

Ashley's movements caught everyone's attention.

"Ahh....."  Ashley moaned in pain.

"Oh my god!!!!!  Ashley!!!"  Kirstie covered her mouth, and tears of joy fell from her eyes.

They all rushed to her bed.  Only I was still standing here.  I wanted to see her, but...what if she doesn't want to see me.

"How-how long was I out?"  Ashley spoke slowly.  Oh gosh, it's so nice to hear her voice again.

"Two days and a few hours."  Kevin answered.

"That long?"  She said.

"Yes, and I miss you."  Mitch said, sounds like he was about to cry.

"Mitch, I'm sorry...guys, I'm sorry."  Ashley said as she lifted her arm.

Mitch bent a little so Ashley could have better access to his face.

"How come you're apologizing?"  Mitch said as Ashley slowly stroke his face.

"Cause I was so clumsy, I hurt myself, and let you guys worried."  She said.

"Love, the only thing that matters now is that you're okay...."  Scott said.

"Yes."  Kevin and Esther both said.

"By the way, you owe me a 'I love you'."  Scott said.

"I love you, Scott.  And I love all of you guys."  Ashley said.

"We love you, too."  Kirstie said as she buried her head in Ashley's neck.

Then they all kind of did the same, like a group hug.

"So much love..."  Ashley mumbled as the group hug was going.

I was standing there, feeling alone and a bit left out.  I wanted to talk to her, but I just feel like there's an invisible wall between us.

A few seconds later, they pulled away.

"Thanks for taking care of me."  Ashley said.

"Well, we're here just for the visiting hours, but there's one person stayed here with you the whole night, and that's A-"  Scott was cut off.

"Mitch!"  I yelled out suddenly.  

Ashley turned her head so she could look at me, but I'm still looking at Mitch to avoid eye contact  with her.

"No, it's yo-"  Mitch was cut off.

"Yes, you did."  I said.

I then cleared my throat.

"Uh....Excuse me, I want to get something to eat, so....I'll see you guys then.  Yeah..."  I quickly went out the door.

(Ashley's POV)

"Well, that was strange."  Kirstie said after Avi left.

"Umm, Ashley.  You know, I didn't stay with you at night, Avi did."  Mitch said.

"I know."  I said softly.

"You know??"  Scott asked quite in shock.

"Yeah...."  I mumbled.

------------------------Flashback-------------------

"Ashley....wake up."  Someone cried, someone with deep voice.

Where is this place?  Why can't I see anyhing?  Is this a dream?

I felt my hand wet, I think it was someone's tears...

I can feel things.  This is not a dream then.

"Wake up, please."  That person said again.

That's Avi's voice!!!  Why is he telling me to wake up?

I searched for my last memory, it was when I was sent to the hospital.

So I'm in a coma?

Suddenly, I felt Avi kissing my hand.  It's a warm and comfortable feeling.

"Please, just wake up and tell me how much you hate that."  He said.

I don't hate that, at all.

"Or tell me how much you hate me, like how you would tell me almost every single day."

I only did that to remind myself not to fall in love with you, Avi...

"Or, my beard!  You always hate my beard, if you tell me that you hate my beard right now, I would shave it all, I promise.  Just please...."  He pleaded.

I love your beard. When I kissed you, it tickled my skin, and I like that feeling.... 

I need to wake up, I need to wake up and tell Avi that I'm so sorry for everthing.

Come on.....just open my eyes....

Dang it, I can't.

Maybe try my fingers.

I gathered my mind and tried to move my fingers.

I think I did it!!  I moved, I can move!!!
