-Kalel's POV-

The doctor was making sure I was all set to leave when there was a knock on my hospital room door. The doctor spun around and I leaned forward - Marzia was standing in the doorway, a wide smile on her face.

"Marzia, I thought I told you to wait for me outside," I told her.

"I know, but..." She started to say when Joey popped his head in the doorway. My eyes widened, "Joey's here to see you."

He walked up to my bedside as the doctor walked out. "I'll be back, Miss Cullen," The doctor informed me.

I nodded my head in understanding. Joey took my hand in his and brought it to his lips, kissing it gently. "How are you doing?" He asked me. I shrugged my shoulders. "What happened?"

"I don't really want to talk about it," I mumbled under my breath as I averted my gaze away from him.

"I came here as soon as I can," He added.

"Great..." I remarked sarcastically. He let go of my hand and took a step away from the bed. I looked over at him weirdly. "What?"

"I came all the way across the United States and the Atlantic and you're acting like you don't even care!" He yelled at me. I wasn't even fazed. I was too sad about what had happened. He sighed, "I'm sorry, I don't know what I was thinking..." I just looked at him. He came back up to my bedside, "How about I take you back to my hotel room?"

"I actually have a room at Marzia's and Pewdiepie's," I remarked.

"You could stay with us if you want, Joey," Marzia said from the doorway.

"Really?" Joey asked, "Do you have enough room for me?"

"Well, Kalel already has the spare bedroom, so you'd have to sleep on the couch. But we would love to have you stay with us. Wouldn't we Kalel?"

"I guess it wouldn't be unbearable," I said, crossing my arms over my chest. Both Joey and Marzia gave me a surprised look, "What?"

"I'll go get the doctor..." Marzia told us as she walked away, leaving Joey and me in the room by ourselves. I looked out the window and sighed.

-Anthony's POV-

I got off the plane and turned my phone back on. That's when I noticed I had a missed call. I pressed the button to listen to the voicemail. As soon as the voicemail ended, someone bumped into me.

"Hey!" I yelled. But they completely ignored me. I rolled my eyes and tried to call Rachael back. It went immediately to voicemail.

"Ugh!" I exclaimed in frustration, looking through my contacts to see who I could call. I could call Natalie, but I don't think Rachael told her exactly where she was moving. I could call her parents, but I don't think they really like me. That's when I scrolled by the name "Kenya Calvin".

"Where the hell did this number come from?" I asked myself as I went to delete it. That's when I remembered - she was one of Rachael's bridesmaids at her wedding. She was also one of her closest friends, I think she said from school. She might know where she lives. I dialed her phone number and put the phone up to my ear.

"Hello?" A cheerful voice answered.

"Hey, this is Anthony Padilla. Is this Kenya Calvin?"

"That would be me! Now, how the hell did you get my number?" She inquired.

"We met briefly at Rachael's wedding last year. We exchanged numbers."

"Oh yeah, I remember you. It's been a while, what's up?"
