~Hope's P.O.V.~

I wake up and my head feels like it's about to explode. I wishI didn't remember what happened last night but I still have the memory in my head. Im about to take some medicine when I hear the house phone ring. When nobody gets it, I realize Isabel isn't here. The phone rings a second time. When I look at the caller ID, it's the hospital. I answer it immediately.

" We would like to notify you that a close friend is in need of you. We need you here immediately." the nurse says. I accidentally hang up the phone with my ear. All I could think about was Jake.

I run to the hospital and say my name quickly at the front desk.

" Oh yes, we gave you a call for..." the nurse says.

I interrupt and say" I know Jake."

"No." she says.

" What do you mean no?" she says.

" It's not Jake that is in need of you."

"Then who?"

I don't know anybody who can be in need of me except Jake. The thought of Jake makes me want to cry.

The nurse sighs.

" It's always hard for me to tell these things to people." she says.

There is only one person that would need me and that is Jake.  She gets called by a nurse and goes through a door. I am still waiting for her behind the desk. I am so annoyed. Why won't she tell me? I need to know. Maybe it is someone unimportant like Isabel or one of the kids. That was not good to think of them as unimportant but I can't help it. I need to know who is in need of me. After what felt like hours, the nurse finally comes back.

" Who is in need of me?" I scream. Everywhere in the office starts to stare at me.

She sighs again and says " The person who is in need of you is... Carlos Martinez."
