Christian's P.O.V:
I'm afraid of falling asleep, like Timmy will come for her again.
I feel a tap on my shoulder and I instinctively I swing but miss.
"Easy," a voice says.
That's when I realise it's Taylor and Ben, Bella's aunt and uncle.
They pull me in for a hug and a tear rolls down my cheek.
Fuck!
I wipe it away.
Come, on. I'm a bad boy. We don't have feelings!
"How's she doing?" Taylor asks.
"Yeah alright, still in the coma though," I reply.
"You look tired, go get some rest, Ben and I'll look after her," Taylor says.
The last time someone said that, they tried to kidnap her.
"I'm all good, I want to stay with her," I smile and sit back in my chair again.
Taylor and Ben speak to Bella for a while before waving me a good bye.
"Bella, if you can hear me. I'm really sorry about this. I should have listened to you when you were nervous but I have one question, why didn't you wake me?" I kiss her forehead and pull the blanket tight around me before drifting off to sleep.

Bella:
I've figured out the third person to speak to me: Timmy.
And the fourth is my Aunt and Uncle.
Taylor and Ben kept telling me it was going to be alright. That I'll recover. They also mentioned that we're going to move from Melbourne to some place safer with new people.
But I don't want to move.
There are people I love in Melbourne, my list my be short but oh boy is it distinguished:
Christian
Ruby
And The Guys not including Timmy anymore.
I can't leave them. I won't!

When Christian makes his speech to me all I can think is that, it's not his fault and why didn't I wake him? I don't even know the answer.
I want to tell him this. I will tell him this.
I try to move my fingers, they move!
I wiggle my toes, they wiggle!
I'm having trouble breathing, I feel like I can breathe on my own.
Some one taking this god damn tube out of my throat!
But there is one thing...
I think I'm awakening.
