"Nicole?" Tanner answered and immediately heard shaky breaths.

"I-it's oph-Ophelia. She, uh, s-she got hit b-by I car." Nicole kept talking but the world stopped for Tanner. His feet were superglued to the cement, the phone slipped from his hand, but Nick caught it. His legs felt like noodles that collapsed out from under him. He fell onto his knees, his hands catching him, his breath getting caught in his throat. He's in a different country and the love of his life is in the hospital. Nick's  expression switched from confusion to shock as Nicole told him what happened.

"We're getting on the next flight back. If your going to the hospital get an Uber or something I don't want you driving while crying. We'll see you as soon as possible." He said into the phone then hanging up a few seconds later. "Tanner, you gotta stand up." Nick said and the rest of the group noticed the two had fallen behind.

"I-I can't. I can ba-barely breathe." The sobs wracked through his entire body as the other guys joined the two.

"Isaac, get plane tickets back to Austin. The next flight out I want at least Tanner on." Nick said trying to remain calm.

"Wh-why? What happened?" He asked pulling out his phone and finding tickets.

"Ophelia is in the hospital. We need to get home now." Nick said trying to get Tanner up. "T, I know your heart hurts really bad right now."

"Really bad i-is an und-understatement. It's sh-shattered." Tears poured from his eyes like waterfalls.

"Okay, But if you don't get up you can't get to Austin, if you don't get to Austin you can't get to Ophelia." Tanner slowly nodded as he stood up. Once he calmed himself they ran back to the hotel and packed their bags. Tanner couldn't stop the tears from flowing. He jammed everything in the suitcase not caring about the mess. "Isaac found us all tickets to a flight in an hour so by the time we get there and get through security and everything we should make the flight." Nick informed him. Tanner wasn't focused on nick. He knew he'd get out of Japan and he'd get to Austin if it killed him. "T." Nick tried to snap him out of it. "Tanner." He said gaining his attention. "She's going to be okay."

"How do you know that? She could be dead already but Nicole doesn't want to tell us until we get there. The flight is so long plus getting through customs it'll be an eternity before we can even get to the hospital."

"Tanner, I'm sure the doctors are doing everything they can to help her. She's going to be alright. Now, let's go before it takes even longer to get there."

The whole flight to Austin Tanner's leg wouldn't stop bouncing, he didn't stop picking at his nails, and he was constantly looking at the remaining time on the flight. His mind was racing with every scenario that could happen to Ophelia, but most of them were bad. Very bad. Once they landed Isaac, Larry, and Blake agreed to grab the bags while Nick and Tanner went on to the hospital. Tanner had already pre booked an uber on the flight so he could get in the second they landed. Once the car stopped at the hospital Tanner jumped out and sprinted into the building. Tanner saw Nicole sitting in the waiting room sobbing. He walked over and stood in front of her. She stood up and they held each other in a hug for a while. "Have they told you anything?" He asked once she pulled away.
