I Never Want to Lose My Best Friend

Darling, You'll Be Ok

I woke up to loud footsteps rushing down the hall. I got up and slowly made my way towards the commotion. As soon as i saw nurses and doctors rush into Vic's room, i already assumed the worst. I hurriedly walked over to the room to see Tony and Mike being pushed out of it and doctors trying to resuscitate Vic. I yelled to Mike,

"Dear god, what happened to him!?"

"I dont know! I woke up to the heart monitor making that god awful beeping noise and the nurses rushing in and shoving Tony and I out." Mike replied. Soon Jaime wobbled out of my room towards us trying to figure out what was going on.

"Guys, why are like half the nurses in Vic's room?" Jaime asked with a concerning expression. We all shrugged and held each others hand, hoping for the best. Finally the staff cleared out of the room and a doctor approached us.

"Are you the family and friends of Mr. Victor Fuentes?" We all nodded our heads.

"Well it seems Mr. Fuentes's heart stopped pumping from a lack of oxygenized blood supply from his incident yesterday. He's now breathing fine, but is very weak. His condition is seemingly only getting worse. We urge you to consider surgery as a possibility, before it becomes too critical." We all nod our heads again. Mike stood up.

" I guess he's having the surgery as soon as possible. I don't care what it takes, or how much it cost. He's getting that surgery! NOW!" Mike shouted at the doctor.

"Ok sir. We'll need you to sign these forms and we will proceed this evening." Mike signed all the paperwork and gave it to the doctor. A nurse came over to me and asked if i was Kasandra Fuentes. I told her i was and she dragged me to some room where another doctor took out my stitches, then glued the wound shut. I filled out some release forms and i was free to do as i pleased.

We all grouped in Vic's room. Tony, Mike, and Jaime decided to go get some food, so i let them go. After they left i curled up next to Vic, wishing he would wake up. Oddly enough as my luck as been lately, i heard a yawn and a few muffled coughs. I looked over to see Vic opening his eyes and smiling up at me. I said sweetly,

"Good morning beautiful. Sleep well?" He chuckled and wheezed a little.

"Uh huh." He looked around the room.

"Where are the guys?" He asked with a strained voice.

"They decided to go get some food, but i wanted to make sure you were ok, because i love you the most." I cooed in his ear, before hugging him. He giggled, then coughed hard. Im now extremely worried about his health. He really does need that surgery. I choked out,

"So Mike decided to go ahead and scheduled your surgery for later this evening." I was waiting for him to yell, or object, but he didn't. He just calmly nodded his head while saying good. I embraced him even tighter.

"I don't ever want to lose my best friend..." I sobbed into Vic's shoulder. He rubbed my back.

"You wont darling, I promise. I'll always be there for you." He kissed my forehead, then held me close, comforting me, and calming me down. Vic was passed out cold once again. I just laid next to him balling my eyes out until I fell asleep.
