           Mean while at the airport, Ricky's standing looking everywhere to find Brooke, but she's no where to be found, he picks up his phone to call her, but as he does that he see's that there's 3 missed calls from Mel, he hurries and calls her back.
                                                                 ****Ring****Ring****

Ricky: Hi, Mel I'm so sorry that I-....WHAT?! What happened? No no I'm on my way right now, I'll be there in about 15 minutes
                                                                                ****Call ended****

       Ricky hurries and runs to his car, not caring that he'll miss his flight to Iraq, and not caring about deploying with his troop, all that was on his mind and all he cared about was getting in his car, and getting to the hospital as fast as he could. All he could think was "How could this happen?" "Why did this happen?"  "She was perfect the night before" . Brooke's the most important person to him besides his family, hell she was his family, and he could not loose her to the world, not for anything really, she's the love of his life. His mind was going 90mph not thinking about anything, just focusing on getting to the hospital as fast as he could to get the love of his life.

                      ******************************************************************

Doctor: She's in the ICU, there was a minor bleed in her brain, and a blockage in her heart, now we got the bleed to stop, and we got the blockage, but her awaking up... that's entirely up to her, we don't know if she'll wake up today, tonight, or even in a month we have to be patient and let her make that choice.

Mel: Okay, thank you doctor. *Exhales*

Mr. Jones: I'm just glad that she's out of surgery, and alive.

Mel: Ricky is on his way, I didn't want to worry him.

Mr. Jones: That's fine, if you didn't call him, I would've. Actually I think I will call Alisha, I don't want her to worry.

                       ************************************************************

Outside the hospital Ricky pulls up to the parking lot, parks the car and heads inside. He bursts through the door, he walks up to the front desk in tears

Ricky: Brooke Jones please?

                                             Mel see's Ricky, and walks up to him

Mel: Ricky, thank you for coming
Ricky: Of course, I wouldn't want to be anywhere else, um... how is she exactly?
Mel: She's in the ICU, she had a bleed in her brain and a blockage in her heart that made her collapse unexpectedly, they got them both now we're waiting on her to wake up on her own, we don't know when that is exactly, but it could be awhile. 

     Ricky listening all while thinking of the last time they spent together: playing basketball, paint fight, slow dancing, and looking up at the stars. In his mind that was the perfect night he's ever had with any girl, but not with just any girl, his girl. He was thinking about all the perfect qualities that she had, all the perfect flaws, perfect smile, perfect laugh, perfect everything, if there was anything wrong with Brooke he couldn't find it because he didn't care to look for any of that, he loved her for her with everything in his body, to him Brooke was absolutely perfect in every possible way known to man.

Ricky: Mel? Is it okay if I see her?
Mel: Go ahead, we're going to wait for Alisha to get here. It's room 213
Ricky: Okay.

        He walks out of the waiting room, and goes down the hall to the ICU, he looks for room 213, and finds it and walks through the door, there he see's Brooke laying in the hospital bed covered in wires and a tube coming out of her mouth. He can't help but burst into tears, and examines her then pulls up a chair next to her, and places his hand on to hers.

Ricky: Hey, beautiful it's me I don't know if you can hear me, the nurse said you could, your mom and dad are here, your dad's calling Alica and Tiffany they'll be here in a few I think; Anyway I know you're trying really hard to get better for all of us, because that's who you are, thinking of everyone but you first, but I need you to do me a favor and get better for you right now because if you can't do it for you then you'll never wake up so. I'm going to be visiting you everyday, so you better get use to me some more because I'm not leaving your side until you wake up baby. (start's crying) I really need you to wake up because I don't know how to go on with out you, I don't really want to. I love you so much Brooke Jones, no matter what, even if I have to go on top of a 100 story building and scream it to the world I will, but I need you to be there if I do, because I want to see that gorgeous smile of yours when I do. I also need you to wake up so we can walk across the stage to graduate next year with all of our friends. They need you Brooke, we all do.
