Ben woke up and saw he was in a hospital room . He scratched his head and saw his dad in the corner , looking like he was crying .

"Dad ?" Ben managed to say .

"Ben ! Oh thank god Ben !" Han then ran over to him a. "You're awake ..."

"How long have I been asleep ?" Ben asked .

"About two hours " he said .

"Oh ... What happened ?" Ben stretched .

"You and Rey were driving home and you got in a car crash ... Everyone's alive " he said .

"Where's Rey ?" Ben asked .

Han looked down "she ... The car hit her side ... And well... She been non-responsive ... "

"Can I see her ?" Ben asked .

"The doctor just needs to check your vitals ... Your mom is on her way ... "

"Okay ..."

Ben was discharged and he quickly put on his jeans and shirt . He walked over to Rey's room .

He took a deep breath and walked I . He saw her laying in a bed , machines all hooked up and IV's in her wrists .

"Rey" he sat down next to her and grasped her hand . "Rey ..." He said again.

There was no response . He looked at her , sleeping , and quiet . He was waiting for her to wake up.

"Hi ... Are you her boyfriend?" The doctor asked walking in .

Ben looked down at her and nodded "how is she ?" He asked .

"Well she is breathing on her own ... She has brain activity and has a steady heart rate ... -"

"How's the baby ?" Ben asked .

"Baby ?" The doctor asked .

"Yes ! She's pregnant ! Oh god please don't say she lost it because -"

"It's not on her chart ... I'll have a nurse come in a preform an ultrasound and then we'll look around ."

"Okay thank you" Ben said . He sat down back next to her .

The door opened and it was Benjamin. "Oh god .. How is she ?"

"I'm not sure ... She's breathing on her own , has brain activity and has a heart rate but they didn't know she was pregnant... They're having a nurse come in to do an ultrasound ." Ben said .

"Oh dear" Benjamin said and then touched Rey's hand .

The nurse came in and began the machine . "How far along is she ?"

"Six weeks " Ben said . The nurse nodded and began .

Benjamin grasped Ben's hand and held it tightly . Ben was breathing hard .

"The baby is all right ... " the nurse said and walked out.

Ben and Benjamin hugged quickly and held onto each other tightly .
"She's okay" Benjamin said into Ben's ear .

"It's a relief " Ben said .

Hours , Ben's been here for hours . She's been asleep for hours and this was all his fault .

If he didn't put his hand on her stomach and distract himself they would have been in their homes , safe .

Benjamin went home , after Ben had told him that him staying awake like this isn't good for him.
