Niki POV
I had been sitting in bed for the past five hours. It was already two in the afternoon, and I didn't bother getting up. I felt exhausted. Mentally and physically.

I opened my eyes slowly to the sound of my phone vibrating on my nightstand which was on my right. I reached my hand over and grabbed it.

"are you awake" Tommy messaged me. I hesitated for a few seconds to open the message. I didn't feel like talking to anyone right now. Wil has been in the hospital all night, and I felt disappointed in myself for leaving. I wanted to go back. I needed to go back. The doctors gave him a sedative which would keep him asleep for sixteen hours, so he is going to be asleep all day. I felt like sleeping all day.

I opened the message and responded with a dry 'yes'.

A few minutes after the message was sent, my bedroom door slowly opened, causing the creaking to echo through the silent halls. Tommy, who was still dressed in his red pyjamas, walked into my bedroom without making a noise. I looked like a complete reck. I slept in my makeup, so it was smudged all over my eyes, my hair was knotted, my eyes were red, I was a mess.

"Are you alright?" I asked Tommy.

"What's going to happen?" he asked as he sat down on the opposite side of my bed.

"I don't know." I told him, and I was honest. I truly had no idea what was going to happen. Things were obviously going to be awkward, but when Wil comes home, I want him to feel as comfortable as he was before. "I might get ready in a couple minutes and drive to see him. Would you like to come?"

Tommy nodded, staring at his fingers that he continued to fidget with.

"Are you ready?" I asked as I walked into Tommy and Techno's room.

I saw a small brown woven basket on top of Tommy's beauro, and it was filled with chocolate, sweets, flowers, and little notes written by Tommy and Techno in it.

They both said yes, grabbed their belongings, and followed me and everyone else out to the car. It was silent, but not as silent as the first car ride to the hospital.

When we arrived, we all walked over to Wil's room. Phil was asleep in a chair that leans back, Jack was on Twitter, Quackity was sitting silently in the corner, looking at Wil, Dream was on his phone and quietly talking with Jack, Sapnap was doing the same as Quackity, Fundy was eating a bagel on the desk beside Wil's bed, and Schlatt was elsewhere. Wilbur was sound asleep, and this had been the first time I've seen him since the ambulance arrived at the house. I was in complete and utter shock that Wilbur had to be kept down, I had never seen anything like this before in real life, and I hated it.

"Is he alright?" I asked softly and quietly, trying not to wake up Phil. Tubbo sat down beside Quackity and put his hand on his shoulder, trying to make him feel better, but Quackity was completely catatonic. Techno placed the basket on the desk beside Wil, and held his hand as he sat down. Fundy looked at it in amazement.

"He's fine. He's been asleep the whole time." Dream told me, leaning up in his seat, trying to fix his posture. I sat on the bench in the corner with George and we said nothing. The room was filled with the noise of the EKG Monitor beeping. His pulse was perfect, but everything else wasn't.
