Beach Party Part 5
Was I sleeping? Was I dead? I don't know. I felt warm inside. I was walking on the beach. I wasn't alone though. There was someone with me. I couldn't talk. But I heard her thoughts.
"Who is it?" I thought. I wasn't scared. I felt safe.
"It's me Zac." I recognized the voice, but I still wasn't sure.
"Who are you?"
"It doesn't matter right now. We are all here with you. You are going to be ok. You just need to snap out of it. Come back to us. We miss you."
"Where am I?"
"You're in a safe place."
"Who is us?"
"The people that care about you. You know who we are."
"I want to know who I am talking to."
"You're talking to all of us."
"Can I keep walking forever on this beach? I feel so warm and safe here. I don't want cold and dark anymore. I feel so alive on this beach."
"Do you finally know where you are?"
"I think so."
"Look over there." The voice said. I looked over and I was sitting in front of a TV. I saw myself on a bed. Rachel, Melinda, Aaron, Jacob, Tasha, Ayn, Crystal my parents; they all look really sad. I have an expressionless face. My eyes are closed.
"Why is everyone looking at me like that?" I asked the voice.
"They want you to wake up. You have been sleeping for three days now. You're in a coma. Take my hand, and you can wake up again."
"I reached for her hand. I hesitated. I looked back at myself in the TV. Do I really want to? I thought.
The voice finally revealed her face. It was Amanda. But she isn't in the room with everyone. I started getting scared.
"Sal?" I said. That is her nickname.
"Just take my hand Zac."
I grabbed her hand.
"Is it still going to be cold? I am still going to be alone? I don't want that." I started crying.
"I was in the hospital room. I kept my eyes closed. But I heard everyone talking. I wasn't sure what to make of it. I opened my eyes and started crying. I was cold, and I felt alone.
No one was paying attention to me. Thank god I thought. I spoke.
"Wow!" I said. "Must have been a kick ass accident for you all to be here." I said chuckling. I started coughing.
"Ow, that hurt." I said. I was bum rushed. Everyone came up close to me.
"Ok, if your gonna breathe on me, please have decent breath." Everyone kind of laughed.
My mom left the room to get the doctor I would guess.
"Zac I am so glad that you are ok." Someone said.
Who are these people I wondered. Jacob came up to me and tried to kiss me. I pushed him away.
"Yuck, what in the hell? Who in the hell are you people?" I said grinning.
"Fooled ya."
"But I am not going to kiss anyone till I get a piece of gum or something. I am sure something crawled in my mouth and died. I can taste it."
"Oh my god we are so glad you are ok Zac." Crystal said. She is one of my friends from Seattle.
"Yeah babe. You had us all worried and shit. You wanna roll Zac?" Tasha said smiling. She is also a Seattleite.
Rachel smacked Tasha.
"Tasha, Zac is still in the hospital and your asking him if he wants to get high? Oh my god. You're crazy." She said.
"No, Zac is going to not do any drugs. He is going to get better, and get help for his drug addiction." Ayn said.
"I agree." Aaron and Melinda both said.
"Ok people. I can make these decisions on my own. I appreciate all the helpful suggestions. Thank you all for coming. But what exactly happened? The only thing I remember about whatever day it was, I hit a tree. That's it. So it would be really cool if someone could fill me in."
They all started talking at once. My head started rushing. I couldn't think. I couldn't talk. I closed my eyes, and my body started convulsing.
