EMILY'S POV

Why? Why? Why?

Violet is one of my best friends I can't just loose! I barely just met her and she's already in a life threatening position. When I heard that she wasn't trying to end her life a wave of relief rushed over me. Luke and I didn't tell her that she was diagnosed with anxiety. I was drowned in my own thoughts when instead of the usual rythym of the heart monitor was replaced with a long beep.

Luke snapped his head towards me and I just froze. "We need a doctor!" Luke cried.

Three doctors rushed in and examined her body. "Get a defbrilator!" one of them scremed.

Another doctor grabbed Luke and I by our wrists and shoved us out of the room. The doctor that just left the room went back in with a huge machine. Luke was sobbing and running back to the waiting room. I tried to catch up with him, but he was too fast. Down the hall, I saw Ashton ask "What happened?" but Luke just ran into his arms.

Once I got to the waiting room Luke and Ashton were sitting on the floor bawling into each other's shirts. Calum and Michael stared at me, eager for answers. I slowly walked over to them. "Well, it seems kind of weird, but she wasn't trying to and her life. She was shaving and she cut her leg. You guys know she had a bad past and when she was lying in the hospital bed, her anxiety levels were too high and her heart stopped," I explained.

"What do you mean her heart stopped?" Michael questioned, "as in right now she may be.... dead?"

I nodded my head Calum pulled us into a huge hug. We stood there for another two minutes when Ash and Luke joined us. Eventually, everyone was bawling because if Violet died, we don't know if I would be able to live with ourselves. The hug broke apart and everyone returned to their positions. Exactly the same spots from before. I put my head in my hands and just breathed. I saw Violet take her last breath before...you know.

I heard foot steps, but I didn't dare raise my head. It had to be a he. So he wrapped his arms around my body and I buried my head into his chest. It was Ashton. He and I seem to be getting along fine which is a blessing because I like him. "Luke and Emily!" a nurse called.

Luke and I were shoving each other to see who could get their first to hear the news. "What happened?!" Luke screamed.

"Violet, she's ok. You may see her if you want," she explained.

We didn't even reply, we just took off to her hospital bedroom. I swung the door open and bolted to Violet's bed side. "Violet!" I cheered.

"Hey, guys," she whispered.

"Please, don't scare us again, Vi. I mean Violet," Luke corrected himself.

"I'm sorry guys," Violet apologized.

"It's ok," I assured her. Luke was intently watching Violet so I broke the silence," I'm gonna go."

I left the room and on the way back bumped into Ashton. "Hey," he said.

"Hi. Don't go in there just yet. I'm making them work out their problems. Well, it was kind of getting awkward in there so I just thought I should leave."

"Oh ok. The boys and I were really worried. We love you guys," he smiled.

"Awe, thanks," I ruffeld his hair and then hugged him. I love it when I hug him.

He broke the hig and I mentally pouted. We just stared at each other for a minute without blinking. "Um, well, I should go see her."

"Yeah."

He walked into her room and I heard a shriek. "Oh my god!" he yelled running out of the room covering his eyes, smashing into the wall.

I bursted out laughing while he was groaning on the floor. I went over to him and gave him my hand, but he pulled me on top of him and kissed me. That was unexpected. I closed my eyes and smiled. I opened my eyes beacuse I felt someone looking at us and Luke at the door frame. "Awe!" he cooed.
