Chapter Nineteen~

Danny's P.O.V

The nights are becoming sleepless and my anxiety is becoming so much worse. Jack stays up with me now and Corey is still basically in a coma.

"Dude," Jack says.

"Yeah?"

"It's been five days,"Jack says and I sigh.

"Yeah I know," I reply.

"Should we just take her to the hospital?" Jack asks me.

"I mean, it's probably our bes-" I begin to say as I am interrupted by a banging on our door.

"Uhm, coming?" I say, kind of like a question.

"Police. Open up!" I hear a yell.

"What the fuck?" Jack says frantically.

"We can't stay in here!" I whisper loudly.

"Why not?" Jack asks.

"Do you not remember? Reality check! We have a girl living here who is in a coma and we broke out of a mental hospital, plus Daisy ran away," I explain to him.

"Oh yeah. Fuck me," he says, obviously frustrated.

"Open up or we will knock the door down!" they yell again.

"Yessir!" I open up the door to find them running inside.

"Can we help you?" Jack asks.

"Hands behind your back!" the cop screams at us.

"What? We haven't done anything!" he yells back.

"Jack, calm down. Let's just explain what happened."

"Please Officer, you have to let us explain to you what has happened. Plus, how did you find us?" I ask.

"I am giving no names. But it was a young lady who looked to be your age, seemingly obese," he describes. Jack and I both open our mouths in shock.

"Daisy?!" I yell.

"Sir, please remain silent."

"No!" I yank my hands from the cop and rip Jack away from them. "She has no right to tell cops what he have done!"

"Hey, cooperate sir."

"Look, I don't care at this point. Just get this girl to a hospital." I point to Corey who is lying on the bed, motionless.

"Did you do this to her?" the cop asks Jack and I.

"No, of course not! Why the hell wo-" Jack cuts me off and looks at me, reassuringly. "Put her in the ambulance and I will explain."

"So, you tried to save her life by funnel feeding her?" the ambulance staff asks me.

"It was the only option. We asked a pharmacist what we should do and that's what she suggested. I really don't want to lose her," I explain to him.

"I understand. I won't press charges on you because I see what happened. I really am not sure why you didn't call the ambulance immediately. But unfortunately, if she doesn't make it, there isn't anything we can do to save her because of how late this call was made. Is there any reason you didn't call us?" he asks  me.

"I don't know. I'm sorry."

"There isn't a need to be sorry. Go tell your friend that we are taking her to the hospital now and that a cop car can transport you there."

"Yessir." I exit the back of the ambulance.

"Jack, he said the police can transport us to the hospital where Corey is going."

"What? We aren't going back to the other hospital?"

"No. I didn't tell him about that," I say to him.

"Okay, but what about Corey?" he asks me.

"I'm not sure. We just have to have faith that she will be okay and come back to the hotel with us when she gets better. Until then, I will stay at the hospital with her. You can do whatever. Tidy up the room if you want. Get stuff together for her to come back," I tell him.

"But what if she doesn't?"

"She will," I say as Jack and I get into the back of the flashing cop car.
