Chapter 24- I want you to be happier

Chapter 24-I want you to be happier.

Jackson's POV:

I sat there, trying to not make the decision, but she's just going to be asleep for her life...until she dies. I sat and sighed...she's been in a coma for five days. I have to do this...she'll be happier, wouldn't she?

*flashback*
"Rise and shine, sunshine."

"...is there any ibuprofen?"

"No, where does it look like we are? A pharmacy?"

She glanced around.
"No it looks like we're on an insane asylum, your life."

I raised my fist back..not like I'd actually punch her. But she got up and started running.

"Dont mess up this pretty face!"

*end of flashback*

"Sir?" I heard a nurse speaking and waving her hand all around.

"What?"

"You said you needed to speak with someone."

I hesitated.
"Oh...yeah...uhmm, I want to take Paige off life support."

The nurse nodded.
"We'll do it tomorrow, you should speak to the family."

I nodded and got up and walked down to the cafeteria which was where my parents and Paiges mom and sister were sitting there talking and eating.

"Excuse me..."

"Oh, Jackson! What's wrong?"

"Well....I thought about this a lot...and...I think....we should take Paige off life support."

They looked at me shocked, almost like if they would never hear those words come out of my mouth.

"How much longer until then...?" Ms. Daya asked.

I sighed, regret already hitting me.

"Tomorrow."

They looked at each other but simply nodded. I walked back to the room and sat in the chair next to the bedside and I held paiges hand and cried.

"I'm so sorry, Paige."

I just want her to be happier and this is the only thing I can think of.

I closed my eyes and fell asleep.

I walked around, I stepped on a rock and I somehow flew up to a cloud. I looked up and saw Paige, In all white, a halo over her head, her face clean and make up on, she looked gorgeous.
"Paige?"

"I love you, hulk junior" she grinned.

"Dont leave me!"

She looked behind her and back at me, she smiled widely.
"Dont worry, I'll always be with you."

I woke up and noticed it was already morning. I looked and saw that Paige was still in a coma. I held her hand and quickly walked to the couch. I don't want this to happen! I sighed as I rested my head on the armledge.

*flashback*
"Why don't we get to know each other better?"

"Guess we can."

"I'm a foster child."

"Really? That's messed up..."

"Yep...been one since I was six."

"I'm 18."

"17."

"I...I love you."

"I love you too." She grinned.

*end of flashback*

I shook my head, everything we went through...I should be going through what she's going through...she's the hero...heroes never die.

I closed my eyes and thought of the other times.

*flashback*

"Do it, Jackson!!"

I ran to the office and dialed 911. As I spoke to the operator, I heard Paige gasp.
"No!!" And then she started jittering.

"Paige!!"

*end of flashback*

I got that thought out of my head and sat there wishing I helped.

I heard a noise, then a blood rushing scream that was way to close.
