Chapter 43 Struggling

Emma POV

I woke up feeling terrible. My whole body was in pain and my brain felt like it went through a blender.

I remembered everything. I remembered waking up, being sure I was dead, and Andrew and Logan convincing me that I was alive.

I believed them now because there was no way I would be dead and in so much pain, right?

I groaned and opened my eyes.

“Emma.” I heard someone say. “How are you feeling?”

I turned my head and saw doctor Wren standing next to my bed, checking the machines around me.

“Like I’ve been hit by a train.” I mumbled.

“Understandable.” Doctor Wren said. “I’m going to give you something to help you with the pain.”

I nodded and looked around the room. Where was my brother? Where was Logan? My breathing picked up and I felt fear crawling up my spine.

“Emma?” doctor Wren called me.

“What’s wrong, sweetie?”

“Where is my brother?” I asked, my voice trembling.

“He went home to shower and change his clothes.” he said, taking my hand in his. “I will tell him you woke up. He will be here in a few minutes.”

I nodded and tried to calm my breathing. He would be here soon.

Maybe Logan would come as well? Maybe he would be willing to hold me? He helped with the pain. Nothing hurt when I was in his arms.

Suddenly, a pang of guilt hit me so hard

almost gasped. How could I expect help from him when I was the one who told him to give me some time? He probably wouldn’t even come. I was being incredibly selfish right now. I would deal with the pain myself.

“Would you be okay to talk when your brother comes, Emma?” doctor Wren’s voice pulled me out of my thoughts.
