Dream World of Broken Glass

[.: Storm :.]

My heart hammered in my throat, as my hand slid into his. His eyes remained closed, unmoving. I traced a finger along his cheek, his skin cold beneath my finger. The doctor opened the door, eyes roaming over me.
"He will be fine." He said. I felt a flood of warmth flood over me. Not relief, but something I couldn't quite touch upon. Something I haven't felt in such a long time. Maybe things would get better.
"Whenever he wakes up, you two- I mean how many of you there are- can go home." I knew he meant they were still waiting in the lobby. My only family, Caleb, and my friends.
The doctor closed the door behind him, leaving Fang and I in the room, alone.
I knew he was in the room, but I felt so utterly alone. He was going to be okay, but I doubted him ever returning. I knew my optimism was in the drain, but it felt almost right. Tears pricked my eyes, and my face was in my free hand.
"What? Why am I in the hospital?" Fang asked, confusing apparent in his voice. My head bolted up, locking eyes with an utterly confused Fang.
"Do you- you know- not remember?" I questioned, wiping tears away from my face.
"Remember what? Was I hit by a car?" He sat up, leaning on his arm for support.
The funny thing? He was hit by a car.
"You were," He sighed under his breath,"I ran after them, too. But, they tried to hit me." I tried to continue, but something in my throat blocked out the rest of my thought.
I threw my arms around him, but carefully. I didn't want to hurt him, if he had broken a bone in his back. I felt his cold arms wrap around me. The cold metal of the bed pressed against my stomach.
Before I knew it, Fang's lips were pressed against mine. The world would have melted away, if Caleb hadn't come in.
"Oh, I see everyone is cozy." He said, clapping his hands once.
Another funny thing? My and Fang weren't dating. Fang had a girlfriend named McKayla. She was a blond with a whole lot of personality. I never dated, just flirted with random guys.
I pulled away before Fang. The room was silent, and a buzzing started in my ears.
McKayla poked her head in, a grin lighting up her face,"Fang!" She ran towards him, almost jumping at him. Caleb gestured for my to follow him. I obeyed, not wanted to anger him any more.
"What was that?" He whispered, a harsh edge to his voice.

I shrugged, feeling my face go numb,"It's just- I don't know!" His face was stern and unreadable, a cold glare locked with mine.
"There has to be an explanation! Let me guess. You accidentally fell into Fang's arms. And somehow, you two just kissed. That makes perfect sense!" He yelled, stopping the chatter around us. The nurses and doctors were staring at a red-faced Caleb, his finger pointing right at me. His jaw was clenched.
"YOU THINK I MEANT TO?" I screamed, bringing Sam to the middle, placing a hand on my chest and the other on Caleb's. She pushed, separating us. McKayla poked her head out, a concerned look on her face, tears staining her cheeks. I tried to scratch at Caleb, fingers only drawing a little blood.
He drew back, falling onto his back. He scrambled to his feet, face looking absolutely furious. He tried to grab at me, successfully grabbing my arm. Sam was thrown back, as Caleb and I struggled against each other's force.
Someone grabbed my shoulder, yanking me away from my thrashing brother. Caleb still furiously grabbed at me. Sam stood up, blood dripping from her nose. She put her hands up in front of Caleb, preventing him from going any farther. I tried to yank away from whoever was holding me back, but with no success.
Fang came out, limping. He was already dressed, obviously in his black shirt and black jeans. His face went contorted at the site of me and Caleb still trying to kill each other. A nurse was already dabbing at my face with a wet cotton ball. It burned, making me flinch.
"Are you serious, Diamond?" Sam hissed, stuffing a cotton ball up her nose. A few nurses and doctors saw me and began to head towards us, holding a few rubber ropes.
Taven who was in tow of Vivian and Evan, and had a grin on his face.
"We heard Fang woke up!" Vivian cheered, her smile quickly faded away. Taven's didn't until Evan pulled his arm and whispered in his ear. Taven's blind.
I felt the doctors close in on me and the rubber ropes wrapped around me, enclosing my thrashing body. Fang and Sam yelled something as I was carried away. All the sudden, my sight black out, leaving me alone within myself.

Awesome so far! (I've read this before, so I didn't have to re-read, if you remember.)

[.: Storm :.]

I'm just putting it down here, in case AA gets hijacked.

My eyes fluttered open, as my muscles struggled against the restraints on my wrists. Sam was standing in the corner, obviously looking torn.
"They said you can struggle and struggle, but they won't loosen up," She soothed, walking over to the bed,"They thought you and Caleb were "threats" to the over patients." Her hand traced the lining of the restraint.
"Caleb started it!" I accused, once again, struggling. Sam's face remained solemn. A knock came from the metal door, and Sam went to open it for my "visitor".
Fang, who was now rocking the crutches, entered, face relieved to see me. One of his legs had a cast to his knee, making it impossible to tell how severe his injury was.
"I thought they might put you in the white room with red foam squares on your hands." He joked, sitting down in a tan chair with black fabric cushions.
"Same thing I thought. But, apparently I'm just a threat." I moaned, tugging on my left restraint,"What's wrong with McKayla?"
Fang's eyes became dark and unreadable,"I broke up with her. I told her before I was hit by that car, I had a revelation. Worst excuse ever, be the way." He slumped down in his chair. Fang reached into his pocket and produced a shiny metal object.
"Sam wants to bust you out of here, since I can leave. Just don't move." He leaned forward, and began cutting the ropes.
Suddenly, Taven and Evan slammed the door shut, putting their backs to it.
"They have this all on surveillance," Taven yelled,"They saw Fang was trying to cut Diamond free, and sounded the alarm." Taven has a funny Irish accent, though he didn't grow up in Ireland. When Taven was learning to speak, our television had been switched to Irish channels. Now, he had one heck of an accent.
"Thanks, Tav," Fang said, working on my other restraint,"What was that whole Caleb thing about?"
"Don't you see? I love my family."

Before I could make any move to stop him, Evan swung open the door at the sound of his sister, Vivian's voice. A tall, dark haired doctor stood next to her, a security guard in tow. I felt my face flush as I froze in mid-leap to stop Evan. Fang had turned his head, legs hanging out the window.
I saw the doctor's facial expression as he locked eyes with Fang, who slid out the window.
"Good job, there," Taven said cheerfully,"Putting us on the first floor." He slid his legs through the window, and began sliding out.
I stood defensively in front of the security guard when he made a move forward. Growling under my breath, I rolled up my sleeves. The doctor took a step back, wearing a horrified expression.
A devilish grin danced across my lips, ultimately terrifying them both. Evan and Vivi ran past me and out the window, joining Fang and Taven.
"Now, why don't you tell me where my brother is, and I'll let you live." They nodded and ran down the hall.
Unrolling my sleeves, Caleb entered the room, a look of regret painted on his face.
"Diamond, look. I'm sorry-"
"Don't start with me," I hissed,"I'm not in a very pleasant mood after being restrained to a bed. Why don't you just keep looking pretty and pretend you at least half understand whats going on."
I instantly regretted my choice of words. A hurt look spread across his face. I climbed out the window, making no attempt at an apology. The breeze fluttered my red hair around, making me feel like I never have before. Almost at peace for once in my miserable life.

<3 amazing! (Please comment on the stories of alice and I!)

[.: Storm :.]

Of course!

I closed my eyes, taking a deep refreshing breath of the warm August air. Footsteps emitted from behind me, and I turned instinctively. McKayla, looking heart broken as ever climbed out of the window. I turned back, facing the direction the rest of my friends were heading.
"I didn't intentionally make Fang break up with you," I whispered, loud enough for her to hear,"I had no true intentions of such monstrosity." I heard McKayla laugh bitterly, probably planning how to murder me.
"Sure, and Fang really had a revelation." I chuckled under my breath as she spoke.
"That was a terrible excuse, I have to admit," I agreed,"He could do way better." McKayla stopped laughing. Maybe I sounded like he could have done better than her. Crap, I thought to myself,How much trouble do I want to get into?
Her voice lowered to a growl,"Tell Fang to get back together with me." I thought about it for a second.
"No, I'm in love with him."

[---> Rose <---]

Oh my gosh. Cannot wait for more!

[.: Storm :.]

Thanks!

McKayla seemed taken back by my awful words swarming around in her small head. She grew accustom to my statement.
"You what?" She asked, with an edge of bitterness and disgust. Her eyes were glazed with a fiery determination to most likely brutally murder me. I took a hobbling step back.
"You heard me," I stated without really thinking,"I'm in love with Fang. And, there is nothing you can do about it, McKayla. I made a huge mistake never telling him. And I payed for it every second he spent with you." My voice had grown bitter, not a good effect if I was trying to get away without any scratches or bruises.
"Now, I have to go," I said, turning around. I bolted away from her. I kept running til I caught up with Taven.
"Let me guess," Taven said, smiling,"You poked the angry bear, a.k.a. Mkayla, and then ran. Good choice. I could have done better...." He shoved my arm with his, almost shoving me off balance. I laughed, shoving him back.
"I'm not as sturdy as you," He said, still laughing,"Gosh, and I can't really see it coming, either. Not a very fair game, to be exact."
"Stop making excuses, Tav," I said, ruffling his blond hair.
