7 Minutes In Heaven

Amber: I look at the two instantly feeling sympathy. "I was wondering if you knew where room 435 was?"

Ally
"Next door, i think," i say quietly, fixing my bangs with a hand. I don't really recognize her from school, but then again I haven't gone in a week...

Amber: I smile. "Thanks." I say and close the door, heading to the room next door to see my dying mother.

Ally
I watch her go quietly, wondering why she was here. End of visiting hours which meant she was a family member of someone if they were hurt.

Amber: The moment I step into my mother's room I burst into tears, seeing my father bent over with his head in his hands sobbing and saw my mother lying still, no heartbeat and the monitor beeping. I was too late, it was my last chance to see my mother and I hadn't gotten here in time.

Bekka: "Who the hell was that?" I hiss, suddenly angry, I didn't like girls who looked prettier or as pretty as me.
Except Ally, of course. Ally was beautiful, and I loved her.
"Oh, your brother, Burt. Such a cute kid," I smiled and looked back at Ally, and suddenly my annoyance flooded away.
I realized I'd started kissing her again as the feeling of numbness returned. There were sharp pains in my chest again.
Please don't let me die painfully.

Ally
I kiss back with a small smile, but pull away after a minute. The muted noise of a heart monitor filled the silence and it bothers me so much. The muffled cries of a girl, maybe the one who had come in. "I'll miss you," i say softly, touching her face softly.

Amber: I can't stand the sight any longer and walk out in the hall, still sobbing and I lean against the opposite wall and slide down, burying my face in my hands.

Bekka: I take her hand and put it at her sides.
"Don't stop kissing me, Ally . . . You make me forget . . . About what is going to happen tonight," I breathed out slowly and brought my nose against hers.
Now I knew how I wanted to die. As the pain in my chest burned, I tried to stay cool. I wanted to die kissing Ally.
But no, I wanted to be alive long enough to see Jonas one last time.

Ally
Sadness consumes me for a moment. "Are they sure, Bekks...? I - I don't want to be alone..." I swallow the thickness in my throat down. "No donor heart? Not one chance...?" I hug her close but gently, not wishing to cause her more pain. I kiss her once, twice...

Bekka: "Nothing. I won't live long enough to be considered to be put on a waiting list," I sigh softly.
A nurse tip-toes in and fiddles with some machines. Why?
Oh. Right. They want to make my death painless as possible.
"Ally, I'll miss you. I know we only started to . . . Love each other just a while ago . . But you're not only that, you're like my sister."
I didn't add she was the only person I'd miss. No one else meant as much.
I thought of Jonas and looked down. I still felt that buzz around him . ..

Jonas
I walked in, emotions swirling and conflicting inside of me. On one hand, she was the girl that broke my heart for the first time, rejected me just because I wasn't 'good' enough for her all of the sudden. On the other? I just couldn't shake these feelings I had for her that still lingered. She was amazing, the way she moved, talked, those eyes... and now, she was dying. Those eyes would dim and close forever. When I walked in, she was kissing Ally. I knew the rumors were true, but to see it for myself, to be reminded that she was just playing with me... I cleared my throat "I can come back later, if you're busy..."

Ally
I wince slightly, pulling away from her slightly but leaving my arms around her. Only because I knew he would hurt from it, not because i was embarrassed at being caught. "Jonas," i greet, blushing slightly anyway. "no, of course not...." I look down at Bekka, to see if she was okay with it.

Bekka: I backed off from Ally suddenly. Jonas.
I felt blood rush to my face. It made me think of the failing hear that was pumping it.
"Um. Sorry, Jonas . . . I didn't think you would come," my eyes drift all over him, making sure he's OK, he's alright, when I'm not.
I focus back on his eyes, feeling swirls spin in my stomach. To stop the feelings I sit up and take Ally's hand. I just feel confused.

Jonas
"I heard about..." ...you dying... "you know...I came as soon as I could to..." ....say goodbye.... I muttered, having a hard time getting the words out. Then I held up a box of chocolates before putting them next to her bed "Sneaking that past all the doctors was a nightmare, but I thought you might like them. Sorry that's all I could..." ...afford...

Bekka: I nod and can't speak. It's like a fire is roasting in here. So awkward.
I'm the only one sweating. I decide not to call on it because they'll just worry, like they should.
"Thanks," I mumble, unsure of what to say.
I'm sorry I broke your heart? That I lead you on, only to crush you? That I had a new fling the following day? It's pointless.
And him being here confuses me. I love Ally.
I do not have any feelings for Jonas. Right?
Whatever. My heart is all messed up anyways.

Jonas
"Well... I'll miss you, Bekka, we all will. Just wanted to say goodbye" I said softly, before turning to leave

Bekka: "Wait, wait," I call out desperately.
Then I turn to Ally, "Can I just speak with Jonas here, alone, for a moment?"
My eyes promise her it's just to talk. I hope she gets the message.
I just want to talk to Jonas at least one last time, if I only have a few hours left.

Ally
I give a small smile. "I don't mind." I catch the look in her eyes and shake my head slightly, standing from the bed. Do whatever you see fit to say goodbye, Beks. I won't be one to stop you. I turn and put a hand on Jonas's shoulder, his metal one with a smile before stepping out and closing the door behind me. Why should it bother me? I never got why people made a big deal out of it.

Amber: I look up when the door closes and spot one of the girls that I had seen earlier. I can't make out which one because of the tears filling my eyes and clouding my vision.

Ally
I look across at the girl who had walked in before, her cheeks blotchy with tears. I purse my lips a moment before walking over and sitting down with her, putting a hesitant arm around her. Why did we have to lose people... Why did I have to lose Bekka? Only seventeen, and her heart is already giving out. Takes heartache to a new meaning...

Jonas
I pause, uncertain as I look back to Bekka. When Ally leaves, I walk to the side of her bed and take her hand "What did you want to talk about, Bek?" I asked, forcing a smile. Screw her breaking my heart, that was the last thing on my mind

Bekka: I push my thumb in his palm and struggle to meet his eyes. It's almost as if I can see Ally in them, like I see Jonas in her eyes too.
I don't bother smiling back. I'm going to die. What's to be happy about? But I do feel oddly happy with him beside me.
"I want to say, that now for sure, you can believe I'm sorry for screwing you up," I avoid saying a much harsher word.
"And, yeah. I just didn't want to end like broken cords or something.

:O
