{A/N: So yea, its either Ian Anthony or David.. I HONESTLY DO NOT KNOW WHO TO PICK I LOVE THEM ALL.  HELP MEEE}

I grab my jacket and slip on my converse, running out of the door.  

“Hello,” some random stranger says to me, before I accidentally barrel into him.  As I run further down the hallway I call out “Sorry!” and continue sprinting to 57th street.  

I am just around the corner and I see smoke and lots of flashing lights.  I cannot believe this happened.  Why is it that the day he leaves me a note confessing his feelings for me, he then is in an apartment fire?  I don’t know what this means.  Was that the sign I was supposed to choose David?

I finally reach the burning building and see it:  A charred, black and ruined apartment complex.  I pray David is okay.  I’m really nervous he will get hurt or even worse.  

I run up to one of the paramedics, flustered and worried.  “Where did they take David?”

“Miss, he is now resting in Saint Teresa’s hospital and will be allowing visitors in about an hour.  He was okay but had a few burns.”  The paramedic smiled and I ran over to the curb, hailing a cab.

I was waving my hand for about ten minutes and no taxi came.  Then, a blue SUV pulled up to the curb and I giggled when I saw who was inside.

“Hey, sweetheart,” Matt, says laughing.  “Yo what’s up Mari, what are you doing?  Need a ride?”

“You have no idea how happy I am to see you,” I say opening the door to the passenger seat.  “I have been trying to get a cab for like an hour.”

“Where are you headed?” he asks me, as I climb into the car.  I buckle in my seat belt and smile as we start driving.

“To the hospital by the office,” I say, hoping he won’t ask me why or anything.  Knowing Matt, he definitely will.

“Why?” he asks, looking concerned.  “Is everything okay Mari?”
