So I wrote this when I was a little down, so it might be a little rough. Please "like" my story at the top if you like it. But anyways, enjoy!!
We were walking along the sidewalk, heading to our favorite coffee place. You were in your summer clothes, with bright colors of yellow and blue. I remember how much you were laughing and smiling at everything I said.
We had gotten to a crosswalk, and were waiting for the light to turn red to cross. It happened all so fast.
We started crossing and I heard tires screech as a brake was put upon them forcibly. I glanced to the right and saw a delivery truck heading straight for us. I looked at her and back at the truck and realized what was going to happen.
Out of fear and adrenaline, I quickly pushed her to the side, moving her out of the way. The truck missed her and kept going. Screaming was the last thing I remember before everything went dark.
I could hear people talking, but it seemed as if they were really far away. I tried yelling out to them, but I couldn’t find my voice. It felt as if something was pressing down upon my throat to restrict my breathing.
I fell asleep, and when I woke, everything was still dark. I could hear the voices again. They sounded more urgent than before. I could make out some of the words that were being said.
“Going!....Shock!!...Lungs are collapsing!...Nurse!” Nurse? I thought to myself, before I faded away again. I didn’t wake up again. At least, not alive.
When I opened my eyes, I saw my own face. A jolt of shock and fear went through me as I started “down” upon my bloodied and bruised face. There was a deep gash along my forehead and my skin was purple.
I “floated” down and saw that I was in a bed, to be more specific, a hospital bed. Still not realizing what was going on, but curious as to what happened to me, I looked to the rest of my body.
My chest was black and blue and crushed. Both my arms were stretched out at awkward angles and I had no legs. Another wave of shock and pain coursed through me as I finally realized what happened.
A memory started coming back to me. “I... I... pushed somebody out of the way.” I thought to myself. “And then I heard... Screaming?” I shook my head. It was obvious that I was either dead or on the verge of death.
I floated up so that I could get a view of the room. A monitor was next to the bed and there were several people surrounding me. They weren’t people in white, they were faces which looked familiar but I couldn’t place them.
One person stuck out of the people. Her once bright colored clothes were stained dark red and she was crying convulsively next to the bed. Her hands were wrapped around mine and she had her head on them. Her whole body was shaking from the emotions that she was feeling.
I remembered who she was! If I still had a heart, it would’ve started hurting as I realized who she was. She was the girl that I loved...
I hovered above her and tried to go down next to her. I made it, and when I tried to put my hand on her shoulder to tell her that I was still here, my hand passed through her and I quickly pulled back.
She shivered when I did that and someone else passed through me and knelt next to her. A face of surprise came across me when the person passed through me. I really was a ghost...
I looked down at her, and made a decision. I would become her guardian angel and keep her safe from harm....
I stayed with her forever, protecting her.....
