4.3K reads? Oh my gods! Thank you all so much!!! I was considering ending this, but I've decided to add one more disaster:

NPOV:
Will drives back, constantly talking. I don't understand most of what he's saying, but I like the sound of his voice so I listen contently. He suddenly falls silent, so I turn to look at him, confused.

"Are you okay?" I ask.
"Huh?" He looks at me with confusion. "Yeah, I'm fine." He turns back to the road, tapping his fingers against the steering wheel distractedly.

"You seem nervous." I note.
"I'm not nervous." He says, not turning to face me.
"Will, look me in the eyes and tell me you're fine." I tell him. He sighs and looks over, his eyes meeting mine.
"I'm fine."

As son as he words leave his mouth, I'm lurched forward in my seat. There's a smashing sound and a scream, but I'm not sure who it's coming from. Something embeds itself into my forehead and blood gushes into my eyes, blinding me.

I fall back against the chair and glance over at Will, wiping the blood from my eyes. He's slumped forward waist the steering wheel, unconscious. I quickly unbuckle my seatbelt and now towards him, shaking his shoulder. When he doesn't react I start I sob, shaking him harder and screaming his name.

"Oh my god! Are you okay?" Somebody looks through the smashed window of the car and takes in the scene.
"Get an ambulance!" I tell her distraughtly. She nods and pulls out a phone as I run back to Will.

"Please... Don't die." I whisper. "I need you. Stay alive. You'll be okay..." I take a shaky breath. "Don't die." I repeat. "I... I can't lose you."
