Meh Short Story

She started screaming as the heart monitor flat lined.
She was shaking him , screaming "wake up! please please please dont leave me here"
The nurses pried her fingers from him and had security pull her out.
She stopped thrashing by the time they got to the waiting room.
She was bawling but she sucked it up.
She walked in. His 2 brothers and little sister ran to her and asked how he was.
Julia looked across the room at his mother, the one woman
on this earth that meant more to her than her own mother.
Miranda was looking back at her, and as soon as she
saw the look on Julia's face, she screamed. Cooper grabbed his wife and held her. Sobbing with her.
The kids looked at their parents, then at Julia.
"Come on guyz. We're gonna go get some ice cream"
Julia took them to the car and they piled in and buckled up.
Julia drove to Dairy Queen and bought them all large ice cream cones.
Then she drove straight to Brandon's.
She let the kids out and they quickly ran to play with her cousin's sons.
She went to the garage where Brandon was working.
He was sitting on the couch in the back listening to the radio.
She walked to him and when he caught site of her he got up and crossed the distance hurriedly .
"Whats wrong, Jules?"
Julia looked at him. The tears in her eyes said it all.
He looked down at her and he knew.
Zach was dead.
As soon as he realized she was about to lose it he grabbed her.
She started screaming, so he turned the radio up.
She thrashed at him. Started screaming profanities.
"HE'S NOT FUCKING DEAD! NO NO NO NO NO NONONO! HE CANNOT LEAVE ME HERE! HOW COULD HE LEAVE ME HERE!" She wilted in his arms and started whimpering. "How could he leave me? I loved him. Why? I dont understand what I did. Why did God take my love. Why?"
Brandon held her for an hour while she cried. Then she realized that she needed to get back to the hospital.
Brandon said he'd take care of the kids for the night.
As Julia drove back to the hospital she realized she still had his hoodie on. The realization made her cry harder.
But she sucked it up when she go to the hospital.
She went straight to his hospital room, knowing that his parents would be saying goodbye. Maybe i shouldve brought the kids she thought to herself.
She waited patiently outside the door until Miranda called her name. She walked in and hugged her mother tightly.
Cooper joined the hug and they were all shaking with sobs when Brandon knocked.
"The kids know, Jules. They want to see their brother."
Julia looked at Miranda And Cooper. Miranda thought for a moment. "We will go outside. They will come in one at a time. I think you should be with them as they say goodbye."
Julia nodded her head.
Ben came in first. All he did was kiss his brother on the forehead and walked out.
Brad came in. As soon as he saw his brother he cried harder. He hugged his brother and kissed him a few times, whispered a soft "i love you" then left.
Abby was last.
She walked in, calm as can be. She got up on the bed and lay on his shoulder.
She was crying softly.
She talked to her brother about her birthdays, her wedding, all the things he would never see. She told him not to worry. That she would help Julia with the baby. She kissed him on the mouth as she did when she was a child and got up and walked out.
Julia couldnt handle it.
She lay beside him and she wanted so to open his eyes. To see that clear blue that she always melted in.
But she knew better. She was in a dead mans arms, pregnant with his child, and all she wanted to do was die.
She cried. She cried so hard she couldnt breathe. But she wouldnt leave him. Not even when the coroner came and told her to leave. She hit him in the face 4 times before he realized that she wasnt letting go.
She fell asleep in a her dead loves arms.
When she awoke she was no longer in the hospital but in his bed at his home.
And as she sleepily snuggled closer to the warm body beside her, she knew something was tugging at her memory.
She sat up so fast she hit her head on the wall.
She looked at the man beside her and realized it was Zach.
It was all just a dream,she thought to herself,just a horrible fucking nightmare
And as she sat there, he woke up, pulled her on top of him, and said "Happy Birthday, Princess"
