Hold On Till May (a Fuenciado fanfic)

Tangled in the Great Escape

*Jaime's POV*

I stared at him in confusion.

"What...what do you mean?'

"He...he"

"HE WHAT TONY SPIT IT OUT!!!' I was getting really worried now,

"He's in the hospital..." and he mumbled something else I couldn't hear.

"Why?"

"He tried to commit suicide" he whispered.

I stood there for a minute my thoughts swirling a thousand miles per hour, my brain for one blissful second not realizing what he had just said. Then reality hit. Hard. I fell to my knees and almost passed out but i stood up after composing myself (sort of) and whispered

"I need to see him."

Tony nodded and we where about to walk away but John called

"Hey let me give you guys a ride over there."

We all got in, "which hospital" he asked .

"The one on Moon and Central".

John nodded and then began to drive. We arrived there about three minutes later. Me and Tony rushed in and John waved and then drove off.

We went inside and headed towards the desk,

"We're here to see Vic Fuentes" the guy typed something in and said

"He's still in intensive care but you can stay in the waiting room until he comes out. It could be awhile though, he was pretty bad when he came in. You...you should be prepared for the worst."

I started crying, I went into the waiting area and sat in a chair with my face in my palms. Tony, who also had tears streaming down his face, sat next to me and began to rub circles into my back while staring off into the distance, not really focusing on anything.

When I had finally calmed down I looked up and saw Mike walking from the bathrooms, his eyes bloodshot. He to had been crying. He saw us and ran over to us and we all sat there just hugging and crying, all of us a mess.

We eventually stopped crying but we where still very upset and all of our face were puffy and red. Apparently I had fallen asleep after awhile.  I sat up and looked at Tony, Mike to had fallen asleep. I asked him how long i had been asleep for.

"Five hours."

"Why didn't you wake me up?"

"You had a long day, you needed it."

"Thanks." He nodded.

We sat in silence for a while both of our minds wandering. Who knows how long we sat there. Eventually a doctor came out and said

"Those here for Vic Fuentes."

We shot straight up. I shook Mike, he woke with a start. We all walked towards the doctor, worry etched onto our faces. Mike was the first to ask "how is he?"

"Well we managed to stabilize him, but he's currently in a medically induced coma..."

We stood there in silence, glad that he was alive, but upset that he was in a coma.

"May we see him?'

"Follow me."

He walked us down a long hallway then stopped at door 0005. He motioned for us to enter.

"I will be out here if you need me."

I nodded in response and we walked in.

Vic looked deathly pale, and was hooked up to a whole bunch of machines. We all stood around him. Blankets covered him entirely but I saw his arm swathed in gauze. I gasped and took a step back. There was blood seeping through the gauze. I sat down shaking, Tony and Mike came and sat near me.

The doctor cam in and said "only one of you may stay here for the night."

We looked at Mike and said "You stay here with him. we'll go back you a bag".

He nodded and we walked out of the room and caught a taxi, seeing as we didnt have a car.

We arrived at the bus and we walked in. I opened my mouth shocked and nearly gagged. There was a metallic scent to the air and Red. Red was everywhere.

Tony said "Let's pack Mike a bag and then we can come and clean then get some sleep."

I nodded. We walked back to the bunk area. We quickly grabbed Mike a pair of sweats, shirts, jeans, and some shoes along with a toothbrush and toothpaste. We grabbed the car and drove to the hospital.

WE walked inside and went to Vic's room. Mike was sprawled out on the couch, but as soon as he saw us he stood up. We set the bag on one of the chairs in the room and rushed to hug Mike. We stayed there for quite some but he finally let us go and we said our goodbyes. As we where exiting I walked over and held Vic's hand and my eyes started to water so I kissed his head and me and Tony left.

The car ride was awkward to say the very least. There was a strained silence throughout most of the ride, Tony eventually broke it.

"So, uh, how's the face feeling?"

"It's felt better" I chuckled.

He grinned shlyly "sorry about that..."

I smiled "It's all cool. I really did look suspicious..."

He nodded then said "so you really plan on proposing to him?"

I nodded shyly "Yeah"

He broke in to a huge grin and said

"OH MY GOSH THAT'S SO AMAZING!!!! I'm so happy for you! Do you know where you're gonna do it? How? When?

He began to flood me with questions. I stopped him and said

"No i haven't figured out all the details yet..."

His smile drooped a little.

"But..." I said "you can help me figure it our"

He started squealing and fangirling. I laughed.
