EPILOGUE / Chapter TEN

Daniel's pov.

We drove to Zachs house and we hoped that he was actually there. It'd be the biggest fail if he and kay haven't broken up and they're still in a relationship. Well, I'd punch Corbyn for telling us and creating the idea of leaving Las Vegas.

But except of this thought, my mind and my clear thoughts went with Melody through the exit and into the Uber which drove her to somewhere.
What the hell happend? She was sad. Or disappointed? Have I made something wrong and someone called and told her?
No I haven't done something wrong and she already knew about everything I did, so what happened?

I tried to call her once again but she didn't pick up. How bad could it be? We haven't even started to date yet.
I sighed and leaned back. Corbyn was driving, Jonah on his cellphone and I was overthinking. Like I've done in the last months. I feel guilty but sometimes I'm thinking about if she's really worth it. Don't get me wrong I love her and I know she's worth it but..
at this point, there are more bad than good moments and I guess that isn't how love is meant to be.

Of course the good moments, like yesterday or the day I met her, are the moments which are staying in a mind and in which everything feels right and I'm fucking missing her lips on mine (and yh, I know how cheesy that sounds) but what if we'll have a loose of contact again?

"Ey Jonah, play some music. This dude on the back seat is thinking too loud." Corbyn said to Jonah who instantly connected his phone with the car.
"Shut up. Do YOU know what happened? What if it's something bad? Like really bad?"
"She'll tell you soon enough and as long as you don't know, you don't have to mind. Besides. You cannot be there for her right now anyways."
I exhaled. "I get it and you probably right but-."
"He IS right. She would have told you already if he wasn't right and it's really worth a worry." Jonah said and started a song.

He was right. I love her, but both said the truth.
I know about Zach and I have to be there for him and as long as I don't know what happened I shouldn't be as worried as I am right know. Maybe it isn't that bad and she was overreacting.

Melody's pov

Hey hun,
Just wanted to let you you know that Zach's fine. He  and Kay really broke up and we're working on some songs to disturb him.
Everything's fine at yours?
Call me if you wanna talk. I'm worried 😣❤️

I read the message and put my phone back in my pocket. He might saw that I was online but I didn't care. I couldn't really care.
Instead, I took the little hand of Eloise and risked a gaze on the heart frequence monitor and I noticed a tear running my cheek. That can't be true and this has to be a nightmare.

I really wanted to tell Daniel what happened. I wanted to tell him that a police officer called me and told me that my guest parents had an accident and lying pretty injured in the hospital. I wanted to tell him that Eloise will die and its breaking my heart and I'm trying do everything to keep her alive since her parents can't be with her until tomorrow and I won't accept if they'll never see her again. She'll survive until her parents are in this room and are able yo say goodbye. She's an unbelievably strong girl and I believe in her and her strength.

But: I needed Daniels hug and his appearance next to me. I knew that Zach needed him, too and therefore I'll never act like my problem is more important than Zachs. I can deal with this by myself. Somehow..

I squeezed Eloise's hand slightly and I talked to her the whole time. The nurses explained that it could help and I should tell about the trip to Las Vegas. The Trip which was the reason for her death.
Maybe I needed Daniel who tries to convince me that it wasn't my fault. That it was just a really bad coincidence. That it's just the fault of the person who lost the control of the car.

A door opened and I imaged that Daniel came in but it was just the family's grandma. She told me that I should grab some food and take a break. I actually wanted to protest but my stomach growled in the same second, so I gave in and went downstairs into the hospitals cafeteria.
I bought something to eat, went to a table, took place on a chair and decided to call joelle and Lena since I knew that I couldn't really disturb them by something.

"Hey whats up girl? Where are you?" Joelle said and looked closer to the camera to see the background.
"In the hospital. Sorry for calling but I really need someone to talk to."
I took the fork and ate one of those disgusting fries.
"Hospital? What the hell happened? Is that the reason why you had to go or was that another reason?" Lena asked.

"No, that was the reason. My host family had a car accident and it looks pretty bad for the three of them. My little 5 years old host child is dying soon and Josh and Helen are in surgery. They'll be fit by tomorrow but they'll maybe never see their child again. Just because of that silly driver.
They were supposed to pick me up from the airport...
When we would have taken the tomorrow's flight, they'd be still at home. Without any risks, without any worries."

Joelle and Lena listened carefully and closly to me and afterwards they said nothing. I noticed that I was crying again and everyone in the cafeteria was looking at me. But I couldn't care less right now.

"Have you told Daniel? Or shall we come over? Do you need someone?" Joelle said worringly and I shrugged.
"I don't know to be honest. And no I haven't told Daniel."
"And why if I'm allowed to ask?" Lena wondered.

"First, Zach needs him and I know he'd drive instantly over to the hospital. Secondly, and the more important reason: Daniel isn't stupid. If Eloise dies, Josh and Helen weren't in need of an Au-pair anymore. I'd probably have to fly back to England and I can't tell that to him. It'd break his heart..."

Okey, hey. The next book is going to be sad and will include some quite triggering parts. I'm also thinking about writing more than ten chapters or longer ones.
See ya'all then :)
