I woke up the next morning to find Jazmine lying above my face.

"Good morning." I said a little confused on what was happening.

"Zenon...what's this?" She asked as she picked up the jacket that Calum gave me the night before.

"Oh that. That's just Calum's jacket. When I ran off crying he found me, and he comforted me the whole time." I said as I started to smile.

"Zenon...that's so cute!" Jazmine said as she began to jump up and down. That's when I remembered Dylan.

"Wait...Jazmine...what about Dylan? Oh my gosh! I'm still with him!" I said as I began to panic.

"Zenon...he might not even live. But if he does then I will help in any way, but before I do...you need to decide if you like Dylan or Calum more."

She was right. Who did I like more? Dylan has been my crush for so long, and I just started to date him for a while now. Then there's Calum. He's nice, sweet, and so caring. I didn't know who I was going to choose, all
I knew was I needed to wait to see if Dylan lived or not.

Ricky's P.O.V
After I left Zenon and Jazmine's room. I decided to head down to the hospital to spend the night down there just to make sure Dylan was okay.

~~~~~~~~
When I woke up the next morning I found myself surrounded by beeping machines and bright lights. I looked over to my left and saw Dylan lying right next to me in a stiff hospital bed. As I looked down I realized I was in one too. I don't know what happened to me, but I remember someone walking up to me and I blacked out after that.

I lied there for a few minutes when Jazmine came running in to see me.

"Oh my gosh! Ricky are you okay?!" She said as she was starting to tear up.

"Yea...I'm okay." I whispered as she came down to hug me. I hugged her back as I heard a loud groan. Jazmine popped up and so did I as I saw Dylan open his eyes.

"Dylan?" I whispered as he looked over to me and said, "Ricky where am I and where's Zenon?"

I couldn't believe my eyes. Dylan was alive. I was silent for a while until I remembered he asked me a question.

"You're in the hospital. You saved me from Ashton trying to hurt me and the kids. He put you in a coma, and you've been in it for about 4 days now."

He looked at me with wide eyes and didn't say anything until he looked around the room.

"Where's Zenon?" He asked as I looked at Jazmine and she didn't seem to excited to tell him.

Zenon's P.O.V
Calum and I were having lunch when I got a text from Jazmine saying that Dylan had woken up. I quickly started to hesitate. I didn't know what to do. I really liked Calum, but I also liked Dylan. What really mattered was who I loved. This was about to become my Hunger Games.

I looked up to Calum who was really confused.

"Is everything alright?" He asked with a worried look in his eyes. I nodded and we finished up our lunch.

~~~~~~~
Once we finished eating he took me to a small area in the corner of the exhibit.

"Where are we going?" I whispered as he turned and gave me a small smile.

"You'll see."

We kept walking for what seemed like forever until we arrived at a small opening in the wall around the area. He squeezed through it and motioned me to follow him. I managed to get through the hole to find a small blanket with pie, cake, cookies, and chocolate. I froze in my spot as Calum pulled me over to the blue and green tye-dye blanket and sat me down on the soft, fluffy blanket.

"What's all this?" I asked still trying to catch my breath.

"Oh...I just thought this would be a good place to talk, and learn more about each other."

I looked at him with a generous smile, and told him what happened while we were eating lunch. He stared at me with a sad look but then he looked back with a happy look.

"Well...I'm glad your happy." He said as I looked down at the blanket.

"Thats the problem. I don't know if I'm happy. I really like Dylan, but he never did anything like this for me." Calum looked at me with soft eyes. He got up and sat next to me as I lied my head on his shoulder.

"Zenon, you don't have to choose. I'm completely fine with you guys being together...as long as we can still talk and hang out."

I looked at him with teary eyes.

"Of course we can still hang out, and thank you so much for being so kind and caring. I've never had someone and kind as you." I said as he smiled and kissed my forehead.

"I'll let you get back to Dylan. You'll call me?" I nodded as he walked through the hole and I sat there with a blank expression as I picked up the blanket, all the food, and head back to my room.

~~~~~~~~~~~
Once I made it back to my room I dropped off all of the food, and found Dylan sitting on my bed. He jumped up and gave me a huge hug. I hugged him back. He was really back! He was alive! I couldn't wait to hug and kiss him again. Dylan was back and better than ever. I couldn't wait to see what was going to happen next.

Jackie's P.O.V
I couldn't wait until I killed Zenon. All these years she thought I liked her. What a dumbass! She won't know what hit her. Then Jazmine will be devastated, Dylan won't want to live, and Ricky, Luke, and Jace will miss her so much that they'll cry until they run out of tears. This was going to be easier than Ashton and I thought. Ashton was right. Zenon is weak. She'll be an easy kill.
