Corbyn parked the car and we all got out. we walked inside of the hospital and went to the nurses at the front desk.

"hi, we're looking for Jonah Marais." Corbyn told them.

"Jonah Frantzich?" one of them asked.

"yeah." i said. she started scrolling on the computer.

"he's on the third floor. when you get there you can sit in the waiting room until the doctor calls you in." she said with a smile.

"okay thank you." i said and i walked to the elevator with the boys. we went inside and pressed the '3' button. it dinged and went up.

we walked out and we noticed Jonah's parents sitting on the chairs. i went over to them.

"hi. how are you guys doing?" i asked. his mom got up from her chair and hugged me.

"we're okay. and we're glad that you are too. but we're just worried about Jonah." she said, sitting back down after.

"i'm sorry. it's kind of my fault. i asked him to come over."

"oh no, honey. he could've said no, but he wanted to be there for you. he's a really good friend. it isn't your fault at all." she said.

"well yeah, i'm lucky to have him. and you guys are too." i smiled.

"here, sit down." his dad said.

i gestured the boys to come sit down too. they came and all sat beside each other. i sat in between them and Jonah's parents.

"why did he even have to come here? did he get a head injury or something?" Zach asked.

"the cop said he could've because that stupid man pushed him so many times and he said he should go to the hospital to see if he did," i said. "i just hope he's okay and not mad at me."

suddenly a nurse walked into the room and came over to Mr and Mrs Marais (Frantzich). we all stood up. she said a few things before they followed her into the hall. the rest of us sat back down, waiting again. i went on my phone. i had a few texts from Emma and Maddie.

emma: are you okay?

maddie: hey. i called you and you didn't answer so i called your house and your mom told me you're at the hospital for Jonah. is he okay? and are you?

i went onto our group chat.

me: hey. i'm fine. i'm with the rest of the boys right now. we're waiting to visit him in his room. i'm just really worried about him, because i saw everything.

emma: do you want us to come too? maddie's at my house right now.

maddie: yeah, we're free.

me: idk. if you guys want. 

emma: do you want us to?

me: maybe i'll just come over to your house later instead.

emma: kk

maddie: okay❤️

me: ❤️

i went on Instagram and everyone was talking about what happened. people were writing "pray for Jonah" on their stories and were posting things. i had multiple dms as well. i went to check them.

lilia: hey are you okay?

milliebbrown: hey! how is Jonah? and how are you?

anna.seavey: hey, Daniel told me what happened. did you guys see Jonah yet?

finnwolfhard: is Jonah okay?

jackgrazer: where are you and Jonah right now? 

i dm'd them all back.

sadie.foster to lilia, milliebbrown, anna.seavey, finnwolfhard, & jackgrazer: hey, i'm fine. i'm at the hospital right now with the boys. we're waiting to see Jonah." 

i put my phone down after to think about things. i got up from my chair because i had to go to the bathroom.

"hey, where are you going?" Jack asked.

i turned around and they were all looking at me.

"i just have to go to the bathroom."

"oh."

i turned back around and started walking to the bathroom. when i came back out Jonah's parents were talking to Corbyn, Daniel, Jack, and Zach. they all stood up when they saw me coming.

"we can go see Jonah now." Corbyn told me.

we followed the nurse into the room, and Jonah was laying on a hospital bed. i saw a bruise on his arm and i noticed his black eye. but his eyes were open, thank God. Corbyn ran up to him.

"Jojo!" he gave him a gentle hug, laughing at the same time.

"hey, guys!" he said, sounding happy. i stood behind the small crowd, waiting for my turn.

"how do you feel, bro?" Daniel asked.

"well my head still hurts, and so does my arm." he said.

"hey i'm sorry for running away yesterday. i didn't know what to say." Jack said, hugging him as well.

"hah it's okay. i kind of sorted stuff out after that." Jonah said, laughing.

"i'm happy you're awake." Zach said.

"yeah. i'm okay. i just wanted didn't want Sadie to get hurt or anything." he said, "wait, where is she anyways?"

the boys looked at me and moved to the side, revealing me to Jonah.

"hey." he said, smiling.

"hi." i smiled back.

"i'm happy you came."

"of course. i was with you when everything happened."

"okay, Jonah we'll talk to you later. we'll leave you two lovebirds alone." Jack said.

"shut up Jack." i laughed. Jonah laughed too.

Jack, Corbyn, Daniel, and Zach walked out the door, leaving just Jonah and i in the room.

"so," i looked down at my Vans. "i'm sorry." 

"for what?"

"for making you get hurt. i shouldn't have called you over."

"what? you never made me get hurt! you never did anything. i could've chose not to come, but i did. i probably still would've even came if you didn't ask me."

"really?"

"yeah. i don't want you to get hurt. so i got hurt instead."

"why? why did you want to get hurt to save me? i mean, i'm so thankful for that, but now you're in the hospital because of it." i asked.

"because it was worth it."

"what do you mean?"

"i mean that it's worth getting hurt for you. you're worth it."
