(Julia's POV)

I reach my hands out to grab Jeff as he completely wipes out. I hear a screech of pain and unlatch my skis, running for him. I find him lying by a tree, screaming for help. I rush to his side, gripping his hand.

"baby it's okay. I'm here." I tell him, brushing the snow off his mask. Katie runs up behind me, full of panic. "don't just stand there! call 911!" I scream at her, she signals for help and within a matter of minutes, Jeffrey is being loaded into an ambulance.

"Miss, would you like to ride in the ambulance?" The nurse asks.

"I.. I can't. I have curfew..." I mumble.

"I'll go." Skylar announces, stepping forward out of the crowd. "Don't worry Julia, I'll look after him." She says, I object completely, but what choice do I have? Besides, I don't want him to be all alone. However, I want to be the first face he sees when he wakes up. After realizing I've been zoned out for the past twenty years, the ambulance door slams shut with Skylar inside.

"Which Hospital??" I ask to no one directly.

"She's on her way to steal your man. I mean St.Matthews." Anika mutters, with a smirk. She starts laughing to herself, I glare at her and shuts up, but still has excitement all over her face.

(Anika's POV)

Everything is falling into place, just maybe not the way I thought.

(Jeffrey's POV)

I hear voices all around me, but I'm in too much pain to open my eyes, everything just hurts.

"Jeffrey." Someone calls out, my eyes snap open, being instantly blinded by the light. I lift up my arm to block it as I make out DePaul's face.

"What's going on?" I ask weakly, as I scan the room. When I turn back around, I see DePaul walking outside to take a phone call. I look around the hospital room again, noticing something I didn't before. Someone curled up comfortably in the recliner, dead asleep. Covered up with nothing more than her jacket, she begins to shiver, I find my spongebob blanket next to me and grab it. I pull myself up trying to cover her with it when I fall dead on my face. I scream from the excruciating pain in my hip, waking the girl. My vision goes blurred as she yells for help, pressing the alert button and kneeling next to me.

(Katie's POV)

*Text Conversation*

Katie: Hey.
Skylar: Hi.
Katie: Can you hang out???
Skylar: idk
Katie: ?
Skylar: It's been a pretty traumatizing week, don't ya think?
Katie: Yes. Therefore, you should have someone to talk to.
Skylar: ok.
Katie: Be there in ten.

(Jeffrey's POV)

I wake to another bright light, which is now the morning sun, as Grammy sits on the couch staring at me.

"Grammy?!" I yell at her.

"what." She replies, her expression not changing in the slightest.

"Were you watching me sleep?!" I ask.

"The doctor told me to keep an eye on you, so I did." She explains, still not breaking the state.

"Grammy... it's an expression... you don't literally have to..:." I trail off, trying to make the slightest sense of any of this.

"don't sass me Jerry. I'm paying the hospital bill." She snaps.

"when's Julia coming back?" I ask her, rubbing my eyes from exhaustion and letting out a yawn.

"Back?" she questions, raising an eyebrow.

"Yeah. Julia. Julz. My girlfriend." I tell her.

"Jefferson, she was never here.." She explains.

"Grammy, did you forget your glasses again.... or your hearing aids. Did you not hear me scream from falling on my face???" I ask infuriated.

"That was pretty hilarious if I do say so myself." She laughs.

"Grammy." I growl.

"Whoa watch it. Your girlfriend was never here. She has curfew. You should know that." She tells me.

"Her parents couldn't make an exception? Who was the girl in the chair? What happened to m-" I start.

"Slow down..." She tells me, clearing her throat.
