Vacation
Scott woke up to a beeping sound. He was used to not knowing where he was, but this time it was different. Scott tried to get up, but couldn't seem to move his legs. "What the fuck?!" Scott shouted, causing 3 nurses to rush in to calm him down. "Why can't I get up?!" Scott shouted, "Where's Karrueche?!" It seemed to Scott that the nurses were ignoring his questions, causing Scott to get more angry. Anger became sadness when one of the nurses shouted "You're paralyzed!" Scott, calmed his voice and said nothing else.
A couple of minutes later the doctor came into the room with an x-ray and a look of dissapointment on his face. "How are you Scott?" the doctor said, not really expecting a response. "Scott, I have some bad news; you're paralyzed from the waist down." Scott still said nothing, just starred at the wall. Scott thought about what the blind man said to him, "What will come will come. Even if i shroud it all in silence," He finally had an idea of what the guy meant by that, and what will come had come in Scott's eyes. He will never walk again.
"Uh-hem," the doctor cleared his throat in hopes to make Scott pay attention,"The good news is, we ran some tests, and it looks as if it is temporary. You could be walking again in as little as six months."
Scott, who was relived that he would be able to walk again one day still only had one question for the doctor, "Where's Karrueche?" The doctor let Scott know that while Karrueche was alive and showed no signs of paralysis, she was in a coma, and had been for 4 days. The doctor also told Scott he could see Karrueche as soon as he was released from the hospital.
Later that day, Scott, wheel chair bound, rolled into Karrueche's hospital room. Even though she was in a coma, Karrueche was still the most beautiful girl he'd ever seen. At that moment, Scott knew he wanted to spend the rest of his life with Karrueche. He had never cared so much for anyone in his life, and to see Karrueche hooked up to these machines, hit him hard.
Scott spotted some red roses on the window seal of the hospital room with a card attached, "To Petra, Love Mom." The roses were all still alive, which was surprising because of the lack of water and sunlight they recieved in that hospital room. Scott took one of the roses and set it into a glass of water next to Karrueche's bed. He figured as long as the rose was alive, Karrueche would remain stable. Scott decided he wouldn't be leaving the Karrueche's side until she woke up. He sang to her, told her stories and had conversations with her.
"Karrueche I promise that as soon as you wake up and I'm out of this god forsaken wheel chair, we are going on the best vacation ever." Karrueche had talked about wanting to go to Fiji, and Scott was gonna make that happen, all she had to do was wake up..
