*30 Minutes Later*

Tayler's POV

I finished packing just as Joey walked in.

"Hey." He said while giving me a half smile.

"Hey." I said, while patting the spot next to me on my bed.

He came over and sat down.

"My stuff is um, in the living room." He told me.

I nodded my head and put my hand on his shoulder.

"You really like her don't you?" I asked him.

He nodded his head, and looked up at me.

"Yea. It's just...everything about her is absolutely beautiful." He said while smiling to himself.

"You can date her." I told him while putting my hand back in my lap.

"Wait, what?" He asked looking nice up at me.

"You can date her." I told him again.

"But...what if she's not gonna be ok? What if something worse than you think?" He asked me, his voice quavering with each word, and tears forming in his eyes.

"Hey." I said as I pulled him into a hug, a few tears slipping out of his eyes and down his cheeks.

"Dakotah's gonna be alright. I promise." I told him while hugging him.

But that's the thing...I'm not sure if she's actually gonna be alright.

*2 Hours Later*

Blake's POV

I sat in the waiting room in the hospital with my mom, and I got a text from Tayler.

Tayler: We just landed. Give us 30 minutes and we'll be there
Me: Alright, we're in the left block waiting room

I didn't get a reply so I locked my phone and leaned my head back.

Please let her be ok. I can't lose my best friend.

*30 Minutes Later*

I heard the door open and I looked up to see four people.

They started walking towards us and I realized who it was.

Tayler, Kelianne, Cody, and Joey. I've FaceTimed them with Kotah before.

"Is she ok?" Kelianne asked as they sat down across from me and my mom.

"They haven't told us anything about her condition yet. All we know is that they'll be out to talk to us at approximately 4:30." I told them.

They nodded their heads and we all just sat there.

My mom was reading a magazine. Kelianne, and Cody were on their phones. And Tayler and Joey were whispering about something.

I leaned my head back and closed my eyes. I want this all to be a dream. But it's not.

Dakotah's POV

I opened my eyes and closed them quickly as I saw a blinding light.

"Ow." I whispered.

I heard a door open and I opened my eyes slowly, seeing a nurse.

"Oh, you're awake. We didn't expect you to wake up for another half hour." She told me while sitting in the chair next to my bed.

"Why? What happened?" I asked while sitting up a bit.

"You had a panic attack out of pure fear." She stated simply. "Normally when that happens, the person doesn't wake up for 4 to 5 hours. You've only been out for 3 and half hours though." She said.

I nodded my head and looked around the room.

"Is Blake here?" I asked her.

"There's more than just one person here sweetie. I'll send them in in a few minutes." She said as she stood up.

I nodded my head and smiled at her.

"Thank you." I said, causing her to smile.

She nodded her head and walked out.

I looked around and saw my phone on the night stand next to my bed.

I picked it up and unlocked it just as the door opened.

I looked up to see Blake, Kelianne, Cody, Tayler, and...

"Joey!" I yelled.

A huge smile spread across his face. And Tayler pushed him forwards.

He walked over to me and hugged me.

"Hey cutie." He mumbled into my neck.

I smiled as he pulled away. Everyone came over one by one and hugged me.

I looked at Tayler.

"Why'd you come?" I asked him while looking down at my fingers.

"Dakotah, you're my sister, I care about you more than anything. I'll always be there for you. No matter what I have to do." He said as he stood up and kissed my forehead before sitting back down.

Just then a nurse came in. She walked over the the machine things next to my bed and unhooked me from them.

"You're free to go now sweetie. Try not to get hurt anymore." She said before smiling at me and walking out.

I sat up and Blake handed me a bag that had clothes in it.

"We'll be in the waiting room, baby sis." Tayler said as they all stood up and walked out.

I walked into the bathroom and changed.

I was given black joggers, a grey crop top that said 'Sorry I have plans with' in black and 'Netflix' in red.

I had my all black high top Vans, and concealer.

I used the concealer to cover my bruises and grabbed the bag, and my phone, walking out of my room and down the hall to the elevator.

I went down to the lobby and stepped out of the elevator to see that we were the only ones in here.

I walked over to everyone and sat down next to Joey.

"I'm gonna go sign you out." Tayler said as he stood up.

I nodded my head and curled up into Joey.

"Are you cold?" He asked me.

I nodded my head and draped my arm over his stomach.

He sat up, causing me to sit up.
He took off his hoodie and gave it to me.

"No, you wear it." I told him.

"No, you're cold." He said holding the hoodie out to me.

"But now you'll get cold." I told him while frowning a bit.

"I don't care. Put it on." He said.

I took the hoodie from him and slipped it on.

It was warm and it smelt just like him.

I sat on his lap and curled up into him with my arms around his neck.

I felt his arms wrap around my waist and I slowly drifted off to sleep.
