Well that was...

^Luna's P.O.V^

Beep. Beep. Beep.

I can't breathe. My lungs feel as if they're on fire! Where am I? Why can I hear but not see? Oh god, am I dead?!

Beep.Beep.Beep.

No! I can't be dead yet! I am sure I saw Aidan! I have to see Aidan again!

BEEP.BEEEP.BEEEEPPP

"Tweety? Oh god Raven! Nurse! Nurse! We need a doctor!" Aidan! Ugh I need to open my eyes!

BEEEPPPPPPPP. BEEEEEEEEEEEP.

"Get the doctor! Your going to have to leave while we get your sister stable."

"What? No!" Come on! Opening my eyes should be as easy as breathing! Now that I think about it i'm not doing so good in the 'breathing department' either, I mean just listen to the heart monitor thingy!

BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEPPPP.

"Nurse, get that kid out of here! Bring in the defibrillator!"

"Raven!! No don't make me leave her!" What? No! they can't take him away from me!

BBEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP.

"Ready?" No!

"One! Two! Three! CLEAR!" A shock of electricity hits my chest.

Beeeep. Beeep. Beep. Beep. Beep.

"Well, that worked. Tell that boy that he can come back in now."

////////////////////////////Three Days Later///////////////////////////////

I take a deep breath in and force my eyes open, well that was easier than it was before....

I slowly sit up, being mindful of my injuries, and look around the room. Empty. Well then, wasn't really expecting that. Was I just hallucinating before or was it maybe a dream? It was too good to be true anyway.

After drinking the cool glass of water off the tray I take a deep breath in and start to move my now aching limbs. I am almost off the bed when the door to the hospital room is slammed open. Nathaniel...

"What the hell are you doing here Nathaniel?" He flinches at the coldness of my tone and looks at me with pleading eyes.

"Hey princess, how are you doing? I-I heard about the fire and-" I cut him off with my laughing, if anyone was to walk through that door right now they would probably think I had escaped from the mental ward (which by the way is two floors up from where I am) and would probably call the nurse to 'help keep the other patients safe'.

"Don't." He gives me a confused look. One word. I had said one word and fortunately for me he's as dumb as he looks. "Don't call me that. Don't ask me questions as if you care. And don't try and make up excuses and lies to explain yourself. I saw you. You were happy lighting my little den on fire, you were happy about trapping me and Drake in that little room!-"

"Wait... Drake was in there?!" He looked alarmed.

"Yes!! J-Just get out!" I stumble a bit after screaming in his face.

"Prin- ah I mean Raven please!" his eyes widen at what he called me.

"...what did you just call me?" he visibly gulps as he tries to think of a cover up. "Answer me." he starts to inwardly panic, trying to escape my glare.

"I-I called you Luna, why what did you think I called you?" He laughs it off as if he was joking, but that only made me angrier.

"Get the hell out of here Nathaniel, and don't come back. I don't want to see that useless face of yours anytime soon, ya hear me?" he just stares at me. "HUH?!" frantically nodding his head he inches to the door, still facing me. Just as he was about to open the door, an exhausted looking Aidan walks in.

"Huh? Raven?! You're awake! You're finally awake!" and with that, Nathaniel makes his escape, speeding out the door of my hospital room as if his pants were on fire.

I look back over at Aidan cautiously. Is it really him? Wait... why didn't I think of this before? How is he here? Shouldn't he be in Australia with his mother? And how did he know I was in hospital?

"How are you here Aidan?" Oh wow... I sound like an ungrateful cow!

"How am I here? What? No 'Hey Aidan' or how about a 'I missed you aidan and I feel so bad about leaving you and flying to America without saying so much as a good-bye' You know, it would've been nice to get, oh I don't know, some sort of contact so that I knew you were alive?! We all thought you were dead! We held off your funeral for two months so that we could send out search party after search party and you know what? I was the only person who didn't give up on you and all I got was a 'How are you here'?! It hurt when I finally started thinking that you wouldn't come back! I buried an empty casket for you Raven. I celebrated your birthday, I even went back to your house to collect your stuff only to find out that some people new in town had bought it and auctioned off whatever else was left inside! You have no idea how long I held onto the hope that you would come back, that you weren't dead and now that I've finally gotten over it, here you are." He just shakes his head after standing for a while and walks out.

'He's changed... A lot' I swipe away the tears that have been threatening to spill ever since he had walked in. I have disappointed him, upset him, angered him. Did all the things that we had promised to never do (accept date each other, there is no way that I am breaking that promise). I am a horrible best friend, if he even calls me that anymore. And worse of all, I let him walk away.

Breathing in I have decided I had had enough. I hate hospitals and I hate drips! I slowly pull out the needle in my arm and chuck it onto the bedside table. I am not staying here any longer.

/////////////////// twenty minutes later/////////////////

Picking my bag up off the floor, I head to the door and yank it open only to reveal the most beautiful sight I have ever seen. In front of me, stands a guy but that is not what I am looking at (well not at the moment anyway) it's what or rather who he's holding that catches my attention.

"D-Drake!!!" my bag drops to the floor as I scoop drake up in my arms, stuffing my face in his fur.

"Uh, hey Luna..." Oh, I slightly forgot he was there..

"Hey Harper... How did you find him? I thought he got lost in the fire? I was looking everywhere for him!"

"I uh- I saved him on my way out of the den.." As he says this, my face hardens.

"You were there?! I knew it! You still hate me! You're just like the others! You hate me enough to lock me in a burning basement!!" He backs up a little bit and raises his hands in a 'I surrender' gesture.

"Woah, no! I swear! I don't hate you! I have never hated you! I was only in there to try to stop Cory from burning it down!" Then it clicks. He was the one fighting with Cory.

"Why would you go against you're best friend like that?"

"Because, I finally noticed what an inconsiderate jerk he is" he shrugs as if it was such a simple thing to say.

"Well anyways. Thanks, I don't know what I would've done if drake died in that fire." I give him a grateful smile and hoist my bag up on my shoulder. "You know, you're not that bad to be around once you separate your cockiness from your politeness" I send him a wink and walk down to the reception to fill out the discharge papers.
