JoMari's P.O.V.💜

I woke up and to see a white roof looking nothing like mine. With a lot of bright lights, it's bothering my view. So I closed my eyes once again and tried to go back to bed I felt tired. When I try to move to get comfortable it didn't feel like my bed. So I quickly open my eyes to see where I was exactly because it wasn't home.

At first I thought I was just a bit hung over from yesterday assuming Riker and I might have done something last night, but when my eyes open I see I am at a hospital. I start to remember the crash. Poor Six, I thought. Then I realized if I'm in the hospital.... Poor Riker! I said in my head worried about what might have happened to him but feeling too tired to find out.

I try to move my hand but I realize Riker was holding it. Thank goodness he is alright. "Riker sweetie could you please let go of my hand." I spoke still trying to get comfortable so I could keep rest. Riker looks at me and smiles so wide, I don't think I have ever seen Riker smile so wide before. He let's go of my hand.

"JOMARI YOU ARE FINALLY AWAKE!"

"Yeah, what time is it I still feel kind of tired? I don't think I got enough rest. Oh wait and what in the world am I doing at a hospital?" I randomly said everything I thought.

"Do you remember that we got in a car accident last night?" Riker questions with a worried look I think he thinks I lost my memory.

"Yes, but how did I need up here?" All I could remember from last night was the crash nothing more. Although I felt as though I knew but I couldn't quite remember it.

"You fainted." Riker tells me with worry still in his eyes.

"I fainted for the first time cool!" Riker stops me from continuing on with what I was going to say next, by speaking up himself.

"COOL!? HOW IS THAT COOL!? I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU I WAS FREAKING OUT! I MIGHT NOT SHOW IT BUT I WAS WORRIED SICK THIS WHOLE TIME! I TRIED TO KEEP IT HIDDEN THAT I HAVE A FREAKING HOLE IN MY HEAD BECAUSE I GOT HIT WITH THE GLASS! IF I CHECK I AM PRETTY SURE THERE IS STILL A PIECE OF GLASS THERE!"

Riker goes to touch his head where the whole is and my small smile that I had from earlier fades. "LOOK WHAT I STILL HAVE IN MY HEAD SINCE 11 PM LAST NIGHT! I WAS BY YOUR SIDE THE WHOLE NIGHT I HAVEN'T TOLD A SINGLE SOUL THAT I AM HURT TOO! I TRY TO HIDE THE BLOOD AS MUCH AS I CAN IN MY NOT DARK FOR SHIT HAIR! JUST SO THEY WON'T MOVE ME FROM YOU, AND YOU WAKE UP LIKE ITS ALL GOOD! IT'S NOT A JOKE I WAS FREAKING OUT!"

I try to talk in a calm voice, "Riker thanks for staying with me but you should have gotten checked out. I was fine it was just a miner faint. I was fine you should have taken care of yourself. I can tell you where being strong this whole time for me. While I was not here. I thank you but you didn't have to freak out. How do you think I feel now that I know I am the reason why you didn't check yourself? You could have a massive injury. I think what you HAVE is way worse then what I HAD." I stated with much authority in my voice so I could get my message across to a worried, hurt, and pacing Riker.

"YET I STAYED HERE WITH YOU, MAKING SURE YOU WHERE OK, MAKING SURE WHEN YOU WOKE UP! I WOULD BE HERE. I PROMISED, I promised I would stay by you no matter what." I see a tire form in his eye but he brushes it away.

"And I appreciate it every so much Sweetie but you didn't have to do that." I stand up from the hospital bed and walk to where Riker was pacing back and forth. I go to hug him and he stops pacing, and hugs back.

"Sorry JoMari I didn't mean to scream at you. I was just so worried and I have been holding a lot of emotions in. When I saw you smiling, I just don't know. I was like wow why is she so happy? When I was here suffering. Stupid to think, right?"
