Honey's P. O. V.
I woke up to the ringing of my house phone. I leaned across the opposite side of the couch and checked the caller I.D., It was my dad.
Me: Hello?
My dad: Myles was in a car accident! His parents are on the way. Get down here as soon as possible!
Me: Ohkay! I'm on my way!! I got up, startling Chres.
Him: Hey! Babe what's wrong?
I ran around trying to find my keys. I didn't have the words right now. He chased after me as I ran out the door to my car. I turned the key as he hopped in the passenger seat, still trying to figure out what was wrong with me. I turned the key again as the engine purred to life. I smiled in my head, thankful that my car was being cooperative with me. I pulled out the driveway and sped down the interstate towards the hospital. I drove as fast as possible without getting hit.
Chres: Honey! What's wrong??
He yelled over the engine.
Me:... Myles. He was in a accident...
Two tears formed in my eyes. I wiped them, refusing to cry. That would be a sign that I accepted him being seriously hurt or dead. That wasn't an option. Chres held my hand as I drive and squeezed it every once I'm a while, flashing me a reassuring smile. We soon pulled into the parking lot and I rushed inside. I found the front desk and asked for the room number.
Nurse: Are you close family?
Me: I'm his cousin!
Nurse: You have to have authorized permission from his doctor or parents to enter his room.
I glared at her and spoke slowly.
Me: Look lady, this is not my week nor day! So give me his room number and let me in!
I yelled causing a scene. at this particular moment in time, I didn't care.
Nurse: Excuse me but I am not intimidated by you! Rules are rules young lady and you WILL abide by them as long as you are here! Now the patient you are here to see is in critical condition! ONLY close family and permitted staff are allowed! Now please wait in the visitors section until further notice!!
I was about to reply when Chres began dragging me away. He didn't understand. she didn't understand. Myles is family. He's like the big brother I never had, he took care of me, he never ratted me out for sneaking away from home at night, he had my back, and I have his. I sat down and for the first time in a while, I prayed. I asked God to keep Myles with me, not to let him drift away. I needed him. My parents soon walked in and my mom hugged me. I couldn't do anything but sit.
A doctor came out and asked the stupidest question.
Doctor: Are you all here for Myles Brown?
This nigga right here though!!
Me: Yes! Is he Ohkay??
Doctor: Yes, he just got out of surgery and he is fine. His friend um, Bailey? Bailey Jackson?
Chresanto's face stiffened. I tapped him.
Me: You Ohkay?
He nodded yes, he's such a bad liar.
The doctor told us we could go see him two at a time. I got up and Chres followed. Once we were in his room, we could see how bad he really looked. it was almost disappointing. I cringed as the blood stained gown he wore hung from his tattered arms.
Me: Hey Myles... don't know if you can hear me or not, but I'm here.
Myles: H..h...hey.
His breathing was uneven but soon steadied. He sat up a little, flinching at the pain.
Myles: Where's Bailey?? How is she?? Is she Ohkay?? This is all my fault!! I can't believe it!! WHAT HAPPENED TO HER?!?
He screamed at me. I shook my head and calmed him down.
Me: She's Ohkay...
He looked around and a few nurses came in, they made us leave until further notice. We decided to go see this Bailey girl. I entered her room and sat in a chair with Chresanto next to me. She was wide awake,
Her: Who are y... Chresanto?? Is that you??
He looked away and nodded.
Her: OMG I MISSED YOU SO MUCH!
She opened her arms and embraced him in a hug. What the fuck is going on?

Bailey's P. O. V.

I woke up and I was sore as hell! I remembered everything and had a huge headache. I sat up and started looking around the room. I noticed something very wrong. Where's Myles?? I started to panic as a nurse came in.

Me: Excuse me! Is there a Myles Brown here?

Nurse: Yes, I believe so. He is in critical condition, such a shame. Terrible car accident. Why do you ask?
