The boys decided that the best way to tell the Roadies was to make a video.
Rye was at the hospital, beside Mikey, making sure that he wasn't alone when he woke up... If he woke up...

Andy, Brooklyn and Jack sat on the stairs, staring somberly into the camera that faced them.

Jack began. "Hey Roadies! So, we have something to tell you, and it's about why we've been so absent from our social media since last Friday... It's been a long four days, and-" Jack cut himself off, taking a deep breath before he continued. "Four days ago, Mikey was... He-he was... He was attacked... We found him and called an ambulance, he was badly hurt and..." Jack couldn't continue, so Brook picked it up, although rather shakily.

"Rye rode with him, and the rest of us drove shortly after, but by the time we'd got there... We'll... Rye said that they'd administered pain relief, and... Mikey... Mikey had an allergic reaction to it, which knocked him out... And.. well, he's..." Brook held a hand over his mouth, taking a few deep breaths before he stood up and left the stairs, leaving Jack and Andy to finish on their own.

"What we're trying to say is, that... Mikey hasn't woken up yet. We don't know if that's from his allergic reaction... Which wouldn't surprise us, or if it's from his head... He'd hit the back of his head a few times, and the doctors think that this may be why he hasn't woken up yet." Andy said all in one breath, making eye contact with the camera. Anyone who watched the video could see the tears in his eyes.

"Yeah, so we're just waiting for him to wake up now, and we'll let you guys know as soon as anything happens. Rye's with him now, so that he's not alone if... When... When..." Jack stood up then and left, following Brooks example. Andy looked like he wanted to leave, but he had to finish the video. For Mikey's sake... For the Roadies sake...

"I hope you all understand, and that's why we haven't been very active... We've been so worried about Mikey, and... We don't know when he'll wake up. We just have to hope that he's fine." Andy's voice cracked halfway through, but he kept on going.
"We'll still be giving you the covers and whatnot, but there's going to be a delay for vlogs... We're so sorry."
And then Andy broke down, burying his head in his hands, as Jack paused the video. He rushed back to Andy, and Brooklyn then joined them.

They hoped that Mikey would be okay.
