When everyone had arrived to the hospital, people had moved to the other side of the waiting room, away from us. Which I thought was quite hilarious.

"Anyone here for Ricky Olson?" We all stood up and the nurse looked quite surprised." We have him stable, but we're only letting 2 people at a time, since our rooms a quite small. So, first group may follow me." Ryan and Vinny went first. We sat back down and I rested my head on Chris's shoulder.

"Is Ricky going to be okay?" I asked. Chris kissed my head.

"I hope so. Dear god I hope so."

Everyone had gone except me, I wanted to go alone since Ricky was my best friend.

"Anymore visitors?" The nurse asked as Ryan Ash and Balz came back. I stood up and walked towards the nurse. She smiled and looked down at my tummy." How far long?"

"3 months today." I replied as we walked.

"We can give you a check if you'd like, just to see how your baby is doing." She offered.

"Oh no, it's okay. I already made an appointment with a doctor my mom had gone to." I smiled, the nurse nodded and she led me into Ricky's room.

Ricky had a cast running up his left leg, and a neck stabilizer on. He had a bandage around his head and two black eyes.

"Oh Ricky." I whispered. I went to his side and looked at his pale face.

"He had a spinal cord injury, that's why he has a neck stabilizer on." The nurse explained." I'll be back in 5 minutes." The nurse left after that.

I smiled down at Ricky." Hey best friend, I know you're there." I say." You look like shi-" I was interrupted by Ricky's body suddenly jerking quickly and the monitor beeping.

I ran out in the hall." I NEED A NURSE IN HERE!" I yelled. Nurses and a doctor came running in. A man nurse began pumping Ricky's chest, as another put a medication in his IV.

I watched in horror as this all went down, I couldn't move I just stood there tears rapidly falling.

"Come on!" The doctor shouted. He pushed the guy nurse away and pumped Ricky's chest harder. A female nurse looked the doctor directly in the eye and shook her head. The beeping of the monitor had stopped.

The doctor looked at me." Time of death, 5:53 pm."

"WHAT!?" I screamed" RICKY! NO!" I ran to his side and cried very hard.

"Ma'am, is he your boyfriend or husband?"

"No! He's my best friend." I cried, I ran my hand along his cheek." You could've done something to save him! You could've done your fucking jobs!" I screamed. I began pounding the doctors chest." What kind of doctor are you?'

"Can someone please take her to the waiting room?" The doctor asked. I was lifted up and carried away. I screamed, kicked, and cried as they pulled me towards the waiting room.

I was put into Chris's arms as everyone gathered around me. Chris held me as I cried.

"Babe? What's wrong? I know it's unbearable to see Ricky in this state, but he'll get throu-"

"Ricky's dead." I said sternly." Ricky's dead... They couldn't save him." I looked at Chris's face, he was shocked. Then his eyes teared up and he began to cry with me. Soon we were all crying.

What are we going to do without him?
