Nena's POV

12:37 am

Kasey has finally fallen asleep on Louis' lap. We have been in the waiting room for over six hours. Jennifer is in emergency surgery right now, but if all goes well, she should be out soon. They told us that when the car came in contact, Jenn jerked so fast that the nerves in her brain shook, causing her to lose consciousness. Then her neck broke, causing internal bleeding. They don't know if she is gonna make it.
Harry has a badly bruised rib, so he came back a while ago and has orders to lay down for the next week. I, on the other hand, have a broken wrist, so my hand is in a cast.
I look ever and see Louis rubbing his hands through Kasey's hair. Then I see Niall, his eyes are puffy from crying so much. He keeps saying it was his fault, even though the cops said the other driver was drunk, he is blaming himself. Kasey's mom is just staring into space, probably still in shock. Harry is payed out on three chairs with an ice bag on his stomach, so I lean over and kiss his forehead.
"How is your wrist?" He whispers, careful not to break the eerie silence.
"Broken. Harry, I'm so scared." I feel tears forming as I squeak out the phrase. He takes my hand and places a kiss on it.
"Me too, love." Suddenly, his phone starts ringing. "Will you answer that? It's in my pocket." I reach over and pull it out, looking at the caller ID. Zayn.
"Hello?" I answer, sniffing up my tears.
"Fuck, Nena? Are you crying? What the hell is going on? I just saw a post that said you guys are at the hospital." There is sleep behind his voice.
"Yeah... We were in a car accident." I stand up and walk outside.
"Is everyone okay?"
"My wrist is broken, Harry has a bruised rib, and Niall's knee is acting up." I pause.
"Is that all?"
"Jennifer is in emergency surgery and they don't know if she is gonna make it." I say so fast, when he doesn't respond I think he didn't understand me.
"Do you want me to come there? I can get on the next plane and-"
"Zayn, no. Don't worry about it tonight." I pull my cardigan around my body tightly as a breeze brushes against my body.
"Okay, if you say so. If you need anything or if something happens, call me." He yawns.
"Okay."
"Love you guys. Tell the lads I said hi."
"Love you too. Bye." I hang up and walk back inside.
"Who was it?" Harry asks when I sit down beside him.
"Zayn." He nods and I hand him his phone back. Liam called earlier in a panic, but we assured him we were all okay, which is only a slight lie. Bill stopped by earlier for an hour or so and asked me if I wanted to go home, but I said no. I have to be here for Kasey.
Kasey starts to wake up. She sits up and leans on Louis' shoulder. Everyone is tired. You can tell by their faces. Not just physically, emotionally. I have never seen Kasey cry so much. We talked to Jacqueline earlier and she said she was buying a plane ticket here (they were on vacation in Italy). So we don't have an update on her, but she was having a breakdown on the phone. I tweeted about it, asking everyone to pray for Jenn, but I haven't checked on that recently.
"Mrs. Wilson?" Kasey's mom stand up so fast, that she almost falls back. Everyone's eyes are on the doctor standing at the door.
"Where is my baby?" Mrs. Wilson starts crying. Kasey and I stand up at the same time and rush over to comfort her.
"She made is through the surgery." He says and everyone smiles instantly. My heart is pounding.
"When can we see her?" Kasey asks eagerly.
"Well, she is out of the surgery, but she is in a coma. When the car hit, some of the nerves not only shook, but broke. She is currently unresponsive." He looks so hurt, having to break their hearts after getting them excited.
"Will she ever wake up?" I ask, holding Kasey's hand.
"There is a good chance, but if she does, she may not be able to walk." Kasey turns to me and I wrap my arms around her small body. She lets go of herself so I just hold her as she cries into my shirt. "Family may see her now."
"Kasey. You wanna see her?" I whisper and she nods her head. "You'll be okay. She will be okay." I give her a small smile before she disappears with her mom and the doctor.
I turn around and see Louis staring off in the direction that they left. Harry is staring at Louis and Niall is staring at me. I walk over to Niall and sit beside him.
"It's all my fault." He whispers.
"Niall, stop saying that. Please, you're making yourself hurt more than you should! The cops told us that the other driver was driving drunk. There was nothing you could do about it."
"I could've paid more attention to the road." I take his hand in mine and rub small circles with my thumb on the back of his hand. "Nena, if she doesn't make it. I don't know if I could live with myself."
"Niall, she will make it. Don't hurt yourself, please." He looks up at me.
"I'm not going to hurt myself, I'm not you!" He yells, causing Harry and Louis to look over. I feel like I just got punched in the stomach. He gasps and let's go of my hand. I pull my sleeves down over my hand. Louis comes over. "Nena I- I..."
"Nena." Louis says, kneeling down in front of me. I catch a glimpse of Harry. He wants to be over here comforting me, but he can't stand up.
"It's okay Niall. I know what you mean." Louis wraps his arms around me as all the emotions I've been holding inside, trying to be strong for Kasey pour out.
"Nena, please don't cry. I'm so sorry. Shit I'm such a fucking idiot! I didn't mean to say that, I'm just such a mess. I mean I may have killed someone, please I can't have you crying because of me." Niall is standing up, pacing the floor.
"I know Niall. I'll be fine." I wipe my eyes and Louis lets go of me, sitting back in a seat beside me. Niall comes over and gives me a kiss on the forehead.
"I need some air." He says, then silently exits the room.
"What was that about?" Louis whispers. Shit. He doesn't know yet.
"I- well... It's just that... I-" Harry locks eyes with me, seeing me struggling and calls Louis to come over. I silently thank him. He whispers something into Louis' ear and Louis frowns. I don't mind that he told him, I'm glad he did. I'm just really sucky at telling people about that. Louis returns beside me and takes my hand in his.
"I'm so sorry Nena. Please don't ever hurt yourself. I love you, if you're ever sad, you can talk to me." I nod my head, knowing that if I try to speak, more tears will come.
Kasey and her mom return a few minutes after Niall comes back. They are both in tears. I stand up and rush over to them, embracing them tightly.
"I wanna go home. I can't be here anymore." Kasey says and her mom agrees. Louis and Niall help Harry into a wheel chair and we start waking out. Louis has his car, to take Kasey and Niall home, so I called a taxi to come get Harry and I.
With Kasey in my arms, we walk out of the hospital and I stop in my tracks when I see what is outside. Hundreds of fans are outside with signs saying "we love you Jennifer" or "praying for Jennifer". They see us instantly, but don't scream. Instead, they start singing You & I. Kasey looks around in disbelief. The fans smile sadly at us as we pass by. It's almost 2 am and they are here to support us. That's why I love this fandom. It's not just a group of people obsessed with five boys. It's a family.
It's a promise.
