Alexandra's POV :

I hear murmurs, it seems like people are talking-no arguing. I try to open my eyes but it seems difficult to do. They feel so heavy.

I try again but nothing happened. Why my head is pounding so hardly! It feels like I got hit by a truck. My whole body is aching so badly. I try to move but just like my eyes even my body seems heavy like a bulldozer. Even breathing feels so painful.

So instead of moving and opening my eyes, I focus on the voices. With all the energy I can muster, I focus to hear what are they saying.

"Why the f*ck is she not waking up?!" a familiar male voice growls out. The voice is so familiar.

"I-I.... We a-are trying-g to- " A nervous voice replies stuttering before gets cut off again.

"The hell you are trying! You are not trying! Try hard enough! " The familiar one yells out in frustration making me frown. Why is he so angry?

I try to speak up but my throat feels so dry and choked up. I try again to open my eyes but feel myself loosing consciousness. My body feels light as unconscious engulfs me but not before I heard.

"Make her open her eyes, damit!"

~*~

My mind registers a voice as I gain conscious. I try to open my eyes but still I can't.

What is wrong with me ? Why I can't open my eyes? I panic. What happened to me?

"Alexandra.... Please wake up." That familiar voice that I had heard before says again.

I am awake!! I yell in my head .

"Please.... Don't do this to me." He whispers, his voice breaking in the end like he is crying. Who is -

Suddenly something clicks in my head.

Xander...

Xander!!

He is Xander!

He is here!

I try to open my eyes again but they feel so heavy. I concentrate on his voice again as he starts speaking again.

"I won't let anyone hurt you again. I-I.. I am sorry I broke my promise but not again..... I am so sorry... So so sorry."

Hearing the cracks in his voice , I know he is crying. I want to take him in my arms and keep him there. But why I can't move?

I try to think but my head starts hurting again and before I can do anything the unconsciousness greets me with open arms again.

~*~

I hear arguments again followed by something crashing loudly then growling. What the hell is going on here?

This time I feel much better, sure there is some heaviness in my head but it's bearable now. I concentrate on opening my eyes again and I succeeded but immediately groan, shutting my eyes as light pierces my eyes. Damn!

"Alexandra..." I hear him whispers before I feel him beside me.

I slowly open my eyes, adjusting to the light. I squint my eyes and look at the person hovering over me.

Xander's face comes into my view making my heartbeats quicken.

I open my mouth to speak but my throat feels dry.

"Wa-water." My voice seems unfamiliar even to myself. His eyes widen before he immediately grabs the water glass from the side table and put the straw in my mouth. I drink water  like I have been thirsty for year. It feels so good when water flows through my throat.
