Beige Walls and Faded Furniture
Happy Valentine's Day everyone! I'm sorry I didn't update yesterday, I was kind of busy, but....here this chapter is! I just updated a few days ago, so it might be a little while before I update again. However, I will try to update as soon as possible!
----------------------------
Millie's p.o.v
"NOAH NO!" I screamed running to his side.
All the traffic had stopped, and people were starting to run out of their cars. But I couldn't focus on any of the chatter. I had to help him. What if he was dead? What would I do then?
"There's an ambulance on it's way," a random person said, but I didn't care. I just wanted to stay by Noah's side. I wasn't going to leave him till he woke up. No matter what.
I sat there, weeping because there was nothing else I could do. I couldn't help him get better, that was to doctors job. And right now, that was the only thing on my mind. I wanted to help him so badly, but I couldn't.
"Please Noah, don't leave me, come on. I believe in you. I don't know what I'll do without you!" I cried.
"Mills, you need to get up, the ambulance is almost here," Finn said, attempting to pull me away from Noah.
"I'm not going to leave him! I can't," I screamed, pulling back to Noah.
I didn't care what Finn thought. He wasn't going to try to get me to leave. No matter what.
"Why? Is it because you like Noah better than me or something," Finn asked angerly.
"Yeah maybe I do. But I also don't want my friend to feel alone. I know how that can feel. So for anybody else to go through that when I can prevent it, its terrible!" I retorted angrily, because how could Finn be so heartless?
"Fine!" Finn screamed, walking away. I couldn't stand him right now, and I was so glad that he was finally leaving.
"Millie, the ambulance is here, do you want to go with Noah? I need to call my parents to let them know and I think that the sirens would be too loud," Chloe said.
"Yeah Chlo, and thank you so much for letting me ride in the ambulance with him. It really means a lot to me," I responded, going to hug her.
Chloe nodded her head, hugging me back. I didn't want to cry into her shoulder too much, because it would be way more embarrassing than everything already was, but I couldn't help but shed a few tears. This was Noah's sister, and she was letting me ride in the ambulance with him!
"Just take care of Noah for me," Chloe whispered we pulled away.
As if on cue, an ambulance started rushing down the street, causing the remaining crowd to move out of the way. The sirens blared, making me want to cover my ears, but I just ran back to Noah's side, and let the emergency operators know what I would be doing.
Before I climbed into the ambulance, I gave Chloe one last look of thanks. This was something that relieve so much stress right now, I wanted to make sure that Noah at least made it to the hospital. I know that that's a dark thought too, but I can't help it. I have never been much of a glass half full type of person. I tended to look at the darker side of things, because it reminds me of the worst that can happen, and sometimes it's not so bad.
Unfortunately this was not one of those times. One of my friends could die. Yeah, I might not know him very well, but Noah is one of the best things that has ever happened to me! And if I lost him, I'd probably lose myself too.
---------------------------------------
The ride to the hospital seemed to take forever, even though it probably only took 5 minutes. And for the whole time, I didn't look away from Noah. I didn't want to end up looking and have him.... you know what, I don't even want to say it right now. More tears is not really something I look forward too.
Just as we got to the hospital, I sprang into action, trying to follow the stretcher that Noah was on.
"Miss, can you please wait in the waiting room? I'll have someone let you know when he has a room," One of the nurses said.
I nodded, because I want to help all the doctors out, but that didn't mean it was still hard for me to take a seat. I did need to recuperate though. As it turns out, when someone gets hit by a car, it can be quite stressful for all the people around them.
----------------------
After about five minutes of waiting, Chloe and her parents got to the hospital. I was honestly really glad that they were here now, because just me sitting in the waiting room, was honestly really awkward.
"Thank you for riding in the ambulance with Noah," Mrs. Schnapp said, walking over to hug me. I was honestly really surprised by the gesture, however I accepted it anyway.
Next thing you know, Chloe and her dad were joining the hug, thanking me too. I honestly really didn't know why. It's not like I saved Noah from getting hit. If I was being honest with myself, I somehow caused it to happen. Which doesn't make sense I know, but I had a hunch that it was true.
"Once again thank you so much for going with our son. You have no Idea how much that means to us. I'm sure Noah would appreciate it too," Mr. Schnapp said.
It really warmed my heart to hear that. I didn't know why exactly, it just made me happy to help people. It made me happy to put a smile on someone's face, even if it was a sad one.
Soon afterwards, we broke the hug, and all sat down. It was amazing how grim the waiting room of a hospital could be. All of the beige and white walls, the furniture that had little shapes on it, in faded colors. It was just overall a very sad place to be.
All of the colors, mixed together in just the wrong way. In a way to make someone feel dread and hopefulness all at the same time.
I bet someone heard the news in this exact room that someone they knew died. Or they heard that someone they knew was going to survive a dangerous situation. And right now, I was most definitely preferring the second option.
