We arrived at the hospital, the nurses rushed Luke's stretcher inside. The other nurses tried to start cleaning up my cuts and bruises, but I couldn't stay still. I moved everyone out the way and ran after Luke. I could hear Michael's voice yelling at me from behind me, but I didn't listen. I finally caught up to them and all the nurses were talking to each other.

"Doctor, in an attempt to commit suicide, he ran his car into a building with a girl in the passenger seat. The girl is fine but he is unconscious" One nurse was talking to a doctor, in effort to try to speak fast.

"Wait. That's not what happened!" I screamed.

"Well you an discuss that with the court later. We have to get him into surgery" The nurse said to me in an attempt to get me away.

"Wait! Luke!" I screamed as they brought him through the doors to surgery. I knew I couldn't go through there so I just fell to the floor and cried. Soon I felt four hands on my shoulders. I looked up to see Calum, Katelynn, and Ashton all with one hand on me. Calum was trying to hold in his tears but then got really mad when Michael showed up and he walked away.

"Wait, calum!" Michael ran after him and then Calum turned around and started yelling.

"You said that everything was going to be fine! You were supposed to back him up! This is all your fault!" Calum then stormed away and Michael started crying. Ashton walked up to him and started to rub his back.

"You know that wasn't your fault. Calum didn't mean that. You know he didn't. He is just overwhelmed right now" Ashton spoke softly, trying to comfort Michael in the situation.

"What was Calum talking about?" I asked, trying to keep my balance standing up.

"Luke realized you were gone for a while so he went looking for you because he knew you couldn't have been in the bathroom. Then he remembered that Travis had threatened him-"

"Who's Travis?" I asked.

"The guy behind the whole kidnapping operation" Michael pitched in.

"Well Travis had threatened him. That's why he had come get you in Seattle. He figured you would be better protected with him around. Then he was going to go after you alone but Michael volunteered to back him up. So Michael was supposed to be protecting him while he went after you" Ashton finished.

"But once we got there, he realized they were going to drive you into the ocean and he got in the car and told me that he would be fine and to go take care of Harry and Travis." Michael finished off the story.

"So that's why he was in such a rush to get me out of Seattle. And here I was thinking that the whole time, he actually forgave me and wanted me back"

"No, Leslie, he really did want you back. He did forgive you. He just wanted to think over your relationship because you and him have been though a lot and he needed time." Ashton spoke softly, trying to make me calm.

"But he couldn't have time because he felt the need to come protect me. So he never really thought things over." I sighed, realizing that he was still not sure about our relationship when he came to get me.

"When we were getting dressed for dinner he kept telling us about how happy he was to have you back though" Ashton smiled. This is actually the first time I've seen Ashton try to comfort someone.

"Really?" I couldn't help the smile that spread across my face.

"Yea" Michael sighed.

I woke up, looking around the waiting room. Ashton and Katelynn were both fast asleep on the chairs, but Michael and Calum were no where to be found.

"You hungry?" Michael's voice spoke up from behind me and I jumped. I turned around to see him handing me a paper plate with a burrito on it.

"I'm hungry." Ashton ran up and grabbed the burrito out of his hands.

"Go back to sleep." I laughed.

"I can't. I'm up now." He smiled.

"Oh my gosh I have the worst headache." Katelynn woke up, holding her head.

"Well that's maybe because you were laying your head on that metal arm rest the whole night." Ashton laughed.

"Shhh" she smacked him on the head and held her head tighter.

"I'll go get you some aspirin" Michael laughed.

"The family of Luke Hemmings." A doctor came out the doors, looking around the room.

"Um, his family isn't here yet but we are his friends." I jumped up and ran to the doctor, eager to see if Luke is okay.

"Well, one of his lungs collapsed, but we were able to get his heart beating again. He is asleep right now and he may need some rest for a couple of days, but you can go see him" The doctor opened up the doors and we all ran through.

I opened the door to see Luke sound asleep. I went closer to him, close enough to where I could almost hear his heart beat. I was so happy that he was okay. He slowly opened his eyes and started to mouth something under the breathing machine hooked to him.

"What?" I tried to speak softly, for some reason I felt as if I talked too loud, he would break into pieces.

He pulled his arm up to the breathing mask and slowly took it off. "No Luke, you need that." I tried to put it back on but he put his hand in front of me, signaling me to stop.

"I shouldn't have been dumb enough to get into two car crashes" he sounded so beat up yet he forced a smirk onto his face.

"You're so stupid, Luke Hemmings" I chuckled, giving him a kiss on the forehead.

"You're the best thing that has ever happened to me, Leslie Montes" he smiled.

"Okay, enough with all the sweet talk and put your breathing mask back on, you idiot" Michael laughed and walked up to him. I almost forgot that they were all in here, I felt like we were the only ones in the room.

"I'm so glad your okay mate" Ashton smiled.

"We were all so worried about you" Katelynn slowly walked up to all of us. Luke looked confused and looked around the room.

"Calum got upset and left. He will be back. He just needed time." Ashton spoke in that comforting voice yet again. It's still pretty weird for me.
