Pushing Me Away Chapter 2.24 ( Rizzo) I titled by head back on the hospital wall. I crouched deeper into the chair I was sitting in next to Mercedes bed. I looked at her unconscious face and her healing cuts. I just wanted her to wake up. She has been in a coma for 2 weeks now. These have been the worst two weeks of my life. For one, my sister is in a coma. Without I have no one. I also lost the most amazing, caring, sweet, sensitive, boy I ever met. For no good reason either. And its all because of that stupid Jenny. Man, I hate her guts. Now, I just wish I had someone to fall back on. I needed someone, I needed Nick. I couldnt take it anymore. I havent seen or heard from him in 2 weeks. I needed him so bad. I needed to see those gorgeous brown eyes. I took out my phone and scrolled to his number. It felt good to be calling him again. Although, I have to admit, I am really nervous. I pressed the call button and put the phone up to my ear. It rung about 6 times, I was about to hang up but then I heard the soft, gentle voice I was waiting for. Hello?- I put the phone back to my ear. Hey, Nick? Its- I took a deep breath. Its Rizzo. Can we meet up some place? I want to talk to you.- I said. ( Melanee) I finally uncurled myself and got out of my closet. I was so tired. I just wanted to go to sleep. I laid down on my bed and cuddled up to my blankets. I looked at the alarm clock on my nightstand. It was almost midnight. My parents and my brothers where asleep. So now I really felt alone. I just wanted to forget about this night. I closed my eyes and soon drifted off to sleep. I woke with a start to a tapping on my window. I looked at my clock. 1:15 am. What in the world?- I muttered to my half-asleep self and pulled back my curtain on the window that I heard the tap and jumped back when I seen a face pressed against it. Jesse?! What are you doing?!- I whisper screamed. He mouthed - Open.- And I opened the window and shivered when the clod night air came in. Jesse pulled himself up and climbed through my window. How did you get up here?- I asked. A ladder.- Jesse replied and we both jumped when we heard a crashing sound. Jesse looked out the window and said, Well, there it went.- He shook his head and walked back to wear I stood. Listen, Mel, I feel really bad about what happened at the dance. We were having such a good time until Annie, and Jess, and , whatever her name is ( AN: Wendy.) dumped the fruit punch on you. And I also feel awful about yelling at you. But I get mad sometimes to, you know. But, I really shouldnt of blown up on you like that. Im sorry.- He finished. Me to. I know I can be a little over-dramatic sometimes.- I said and smiled. A little.- He smiled. I giggled. But really Melanee, you shouldnt get upset over what those three do. It doesnt mean anything.- Jesse said. I know. They just, ahh I dont know I just cant stand them.- I said. Dont worry. They wont bother you anymore. Now that your boyfriend will protect you.- He said put then look nervous. Boyfriend?- I questioned. Um, well. Sorry, I didnt mean to say that.- He fumbled with his hands. Oh. So, you dont want to be my boyfriend?- I asked, trying to hide the hurt in my eyes. No! I do! I mean, oh. Well, do you want me to be your boyfriend?- He asked. Well, kinda. Yes.- I said. He smiled then took my hands. Okay. So Melanee Jonas, will you be my girlfriend?- He asked. I giggled. - Yes.- Sweet.- He said. I laughed and pulled him into a hug. Suddenly we were interrupted by the door opening and someone saying. What is going on here?!- ( haha! Awesome cliffy! And Happy Easter!)
