Pierce The Veil Is My Family (Sequel to Pierce The Veil Adopted Me?!)

19: Please, Let This be a Dream

~Blade's P.O.V.~

At around 2:30am I was woken up by Jaime. I was obviously confused what was going on, so I asked. "Vic. Hospital. A coma. Hurry up!" was my answer. I shot out of bed after putting that together, put on purple sweat pants, and an ADTR shirt. I threw my hair in a bun on my head, then put on a hoodie, and put my headphones, phone, and phone charger in my pocket. I hurried with my socks, then threw on the first shoes I saw; batman converse.

I rushed down the stairs, grabbing a monster out of the fridge, and running out to the car where Jaime was in the drivers seat, and Andy sitting in the passenger seat. They turned the radio on quietly where Dumb by Nirvana came on. I opened my monster, and sipped it. "What caused it...?" I asked as we parked the car in the E.R. parking, which was in the back of the building, pretty fucking stupid if you ask me. "They don't know."

When we got there Mike and Austin were waiting by the door for us. They led us to the elevator, and presses level 3.

When we were on floor 3 there was a lobby area, with a desk that no one was at. There were automatic doors, and Mike and Austin led us threw there. I read the label on the door "ICU".

Once we were inside the thingy we passed a front desk where a lady smiles at us sympathetically, and we turn left, then entered a door that said "ICU Waiting Room"

In there there were two tables, two couch like chairs that fit two people, three actual chairs, little kid chairs, a tv, a bathroom, three doors; the one we walked in, the bathroom, and another one, and a window. All the people in there was Mike, Austin, Jaime, Andy, Tony, Stewart, and Vic's parents. I sat in the couch/chair thing next to Austin -who just sat down-, and who is like my brother. Andy moved a chair next to it. Austin looked at Andy, who nods, which leaves me confused.

Austin awkwardly side hugs me, and says "It's okay to cry, he's gonna be okay sweetie, he's a fighter. We'll get threw this. He loves you too damn much to leave you. He's your dad, he may not be your birth-dad, but the bond between you two is father-daughter bond." In my ear. I'm kinda glad he's here, 'cause he went through something like this with his mom, so he knows how I feel.

We sit there in silence with the tv playing Ridiculousness, but our minds somewhere else, when about twenty minutes later an annoying siren goes off. Tony rushed to the door, and listened to it. "What's going on..?" I whispered to Austin. "I-it's a siren saying someone in ICU is flat-lining. Vic is in unit 9, so we're listening to make sure it isn't unit 9." He whispers back.

"ICU Unit 3, emergency." the robot like voice says, and we all sigh in relief. Not happy about whoever is in unit 3, or their family, but thankful it's not unit 9 that they called.

I plugged in my headphones, knowing that I should listen to music to calm down a little. I think about what I should listen to, but when I can't decide I put it on shuffle. Second & Sebring comes on, and I -for once- actually listen to the meaningful lyrics. After listening to it a few times I knew that this song has a lot of meaning to me, and probably more to Austin.

I put the song on repeat, and looked at Austin. 'Why do all the bad things happen to good people?' I thought to myself as I looked back at the beige wall. I sighed thinking about the fucked up world we live in. After a while Austin moved, laid on the floor, and Andy sat next to me.

Andy wrapped his arms around me, and whispered things like 'He's gonna be okay' in my ear, and we cuddled for a while.

After a while around 5:30am Andy, Mike, and Austin wanted to go to Sheets to get something to eat. There's a Sheets down the road, so we went out to Austin's truck, and hopped in.
