Ch. 18

{Noel's POV}

I regained my vision a couple minutes later. I saw the doctor putting something in my arm. A needle. Probably taking my blood.

"What happened?" I asked a little weakly. I was unsure of what happened. I remembered my parents being here but I don't remember anything that happened after I passed out.

"You passed out. I was just taking your blood. You have to stay here for a couple more days. Your parents and Regina and Henry should be here and keep you company." The doctor said and left the room.

I got up from my bed and picked up my phone. The screen was shattered. 'Great. I'll fix it with magic. I can't stand things broken. I can't stand my heart like that. Maybe I should just crush it. I mean no one will miss me anyway.' I thought.

I fixed my phone. I dialed Regina's number and started crying.

"Hello?" Regina said answering the phone sounding worried.

"Hey. Regina. I need to talk to some one. Can you come to the hospital?" I asked Regina crying.

"I'm sorry Noel but I can't. I can't always be there for you. I have kids to take care of. I'll make it up to you a promise." She said sadly.

"Okay. I get it." I said harshly. I hung up the phone and threw it at the wall again.

'Of course. When I say I need someone. They are too busy with their lives to help me. Whatever. I don't need her anyway. Especially if I'm just going to rip my heart out and crush it. I should have done it years ago' I thought.

I fell to the ground and brought my knees up to my chest. I continued to cry till I heard a knock at the door.

I quickly made myself stop crying and wiped my tears. I got up and opened the door and saw my mom.

"What do you want?" I asked sadly. I wanted to talk to her but I wasn't sure if she would understand.

"I want to talk. I know I haven't been a great mother but it's still not too late. Please?" She asked.

"Sure." I said and walked away from the door.

I picked up my phone and fixed it again. I sat on my bed. My mom sat in front of me.

"What's wrong? Why don't you ever come to me or your father when you have a problem?" she asked.

"I don't because..." I paused for a moment and fought back my tears. "Because I'm afraid that if I told you everything that you won't really understand or you won't listen. So I shut you out because I thought that was the only way to get rid of the pain. But it just caused more." I continued.

She sat there quietly, listening to me. "Go on" she said.

"It's just...I wanted to see if you guys would care enough to try to make me talk about my feelings. Some times I feel like you aren't really here when you are." I said with tears rolling down my face.

"I get it, Noel. I do. Like your invisible, unwanted, unloved. But you are. You just have to realize it. I realized it when I married your father. He made me so happy. And so did Henry's father, Neal. You don't know him but he was a great guy that left me to protect me. He died saving the town. But since I have your father my life been great. But right now it hasn't because you've been in the hospital. I've been worried about you and everything. I can't lose my daughter. Not like my mom lost me. I won't let it happen. I love you, Noel. No matter what happens I want you to know that." She said with pain, love and sadness in her voice. Tears rolled down her face.

"You do? Really? Mom you'll never lose me. I love you too. It's just sometimes I feel like you don't. I really should. None of this should have happened." I said sadly.

"Yeah I do. You're right. It shouldn't have happened. But it did. It's okay. When you get out I promise to be there for you more." She said

"Thanks mom." I said. I looked at my phone.

'Hey, Regina. It's okay. I finally told my mom how I feel and she understands. I won't be needing to stay with you anymore. But I'll still babysit for you.' I texted Regina

'Okay. Sounds good.' She replied.

I got up and hugged my mom. "Thank you." I said crying.

"You're welcome." She said and hugged me back. She rubbed my back. "When do you get out of here?" she asked.

"A couple days." I replied.

"Oh okay" she said. And got up. "I have to go but I'll be back tomorrow." She left.

I was alone again. But I think this time it's for good. I finally let my mom in and frankly that what I needed to do. I never thought she would understand me or my feelings. But I guess she does. Maybe she's not a bad parent after all. She broke down my walls and that's exactly what someone had to do. Jake isn't do it, Regina didn't do it. It was my mom. I'm surprised it was her. Maybe this is a new start with her.
