Do you know the feeling when you are just not sure how to feel?  I do not know how to describe it other than the fact that I am in shock. It is weird to think that someone you had seen earlier in the day completely fine and healthy. Then the next time you see them they are attached to a hospital bed with a breathing tube shoved down their throat. You can hear the slow repetition of beeps coming from the heart monitor letting you know that they are still here. 

You can see that they are in pain just by looking at their body. We were all told that Jasmine had been drinking when this crash had happen. She had a significant amount of alcohol in her blood stream which caused her judgment to be off. However, she had been driving carefully and was proceeding through a green light when another  car had hit her running the adjacent red light is what the witnesses had said. The other driver was unfortunately killed by the impact.

"Jasmine is in what we call a persistent vegetative state. It is a severe state of unconsciousness. Which is where the patient is unaware of their surroundings and incapable of voluntary movement. With a persistent vegetative state, someone may progress to wakefulness but with no higher brain function. With persistent vegetative state, there is breathing, circulation, and sleep-wake cycles. " Doctor Hubbard said.

This is what my mother and I have learned about Jasmine's current condition. We do not know how long it will be until she is fully awake and is recovering properly. 

"So you guys don't know when she will wake up again?" I asked clarifying.

"No Mr.Styles we will not know. You guys are welcome to stay here until visting hours are over, or one of you can stay for the night not all of you." He said mentioning the other four boys waiting outside our room. 

"Thanks Doctor." My mother said kindly shaking his hand.

"Harry love, I am going to go home and I will be back first thing in the morning it is getting kind of late."

I nodded and she kissed my forehead before saying goodbye to me. As the door to Jasmine's room opened I heard her tell the other boys they can come in and her saying bye to them as well.

I watched them all quietly walk in. Louis and Liam had the saddest looks on their faces ever. I did not know whether not I felt the exactly the same as them.

"Why do bad things happen to good people?" I heard Liam whispered quietly to himself. We all heard him though.

"She isn't a good person Liam. She is a liar. One day you will see that she is just using us all in the end." Zayn said.

"Shut up Zayn! You have no idea whether or not she is a bad person! You don't know her!" Liam shouted.

"Like you do Liam? How much do you really know this girl?" Zayn shot back at him.

"I don't! I am just trying to give her the benefit of the doubt right now and I would really appreciate if you could stop trash talking my friend!" Liam yelled louder this time.

"Yeah friend. We all hate her. I know you do you even told me so when you first met her. Did you not say she was going to be trouble? Well guess what she is! She also is not a good person if she was drinking and driving!"

"Okay and she was hit by some idiot running a red light Zayn!" Louis jumped in. 

Niall and I just sat back watching them all go back and forth. I didn't know what to think honestly. My friends are fighting over a girl who I was forced to marry. A girl who I really do not even care about.
