Daniel's POV

The light turned red so I stopped the car. I looked over and saw Kourtney's face light up as her favorite song came on.
"I found a love for me. Darling just dive right in, and follow my lead," Kourtney sang.
I reached up and turned up the radio a bit. "Well I found a girl, beautiful and sweet. Oh, I never knew you were the someone, waiting for me," I sang, joining in. I looked into Kourtney's eyes. 'Gosh damn, how is she so perfect,' I thought.
"Cause we were just kids when we fell in love, not knowing what it was," we sang together, not breaking eye contact. "I will not give you up this time. But darling just kiss me slow, your heart is all I own. And in your eyes, you're holding mine."
The light turned green so I started driving again.
Kourtney looked over and her body instantly stiffened.
My eyes followed to where she was looking at, just as the car rammed into the side of mine.

As soon as the car hit mine I jolted up. I looked around and noticed I wasn't in the hospital room anymore. Instead, I was in my room. I got up and ran downstairs. "Why am I here? I'm supposed to be with Kourtney!" I yelled, running over to Jonah.
"Hey, relax. She's okay. The doctors asked if we could bring you home for a day or two since you had been there for so long."
"There's such thing as the word 'no!'" "Daniel, calm down. She's okay. Nothing bad is going to happen," Zach said, walking over to me.
"No, I need to get back. What if something does happen? I need to be there!"
"Daniel. Calm down. We'll take you back after you eat something," Jack said.
"I'll eat in the car."
"No, you won't Daniel." Jack grabbed my arm and took me to the kitchen, sitting me down at the counter. Corbyn set a plate of food down in front of me. Pancakes, eggs, sausage, and fruit. Kourtney's favorite.
"I'm not hungry," I said, pushing the plate away.
"Yes, you are. You haven't eaten in three days. You are not going anywhere until you eat, so eat," Corbyn barked.
I picked up the fork and started eating.
All of the boys went into the living room, but they left the door open so they could see me.
I quickly ate the food and drank the orange juice Jonah had given me and went into the living room.
"Okay, I'm done. Now, let's go."
All of the boys stood up and followed me out to the car. We all got in and Jonah started driving to the hospital.

Once we got there I quickly got out of the car and ran inside. I checked in or whatever and went up to Kourtney's room. As I approached the door I saw Nadia sitting outside in a chair.
"Daniel, hey. You feeling better."
"No. Is she okay?"
"Yeah, she's fine."
"Are you sure? Nothing changed?"
"Well, one thing changed."
Before I got the chance to ask about it a nurse walked out of her room.
"You may go back in," she said.
I opened the door and saw Kourtney sitting there, watching TV. Thank God, nothing chan- wait, watching Tv?
"Kourtney!" I ran over to her and gave her a hug and kisses all over her face. "You're okay! I was so worried."
"Daniel, stop. Yeah, I'm fine. Why wouldn't I be?"
"You were in a coma for over a month."
"Oh. Where's West?" She asked, looking around.
"What?"
"Where's West? You know, my boyfriend."
"I'll- I'll be right back." I kissed her head and then walked outside, shutting her door.
Nadia and all the guys were standing outside, waiting.
"She thinks she's still dating West," I mumbled under my breath.
"What?" Jack asked.
"She thinks she's still dating West," I said, this time a little bit louder. I sat down on one of the chairs. I placed my head in my hands and bit my lip and closed my eyes, trying not to cry.
