My Brothers Friend || Zach Herron

Right Now?

"Y/n!!" I was pulled from my slow motion trance when I heard some one yelling my name.
I turned around and found Cornyn running across the street, which had been blocked off so there were no cars near the scene.
"Corbyn" he hugged me tight.
"H-he..." I tried to speak but Corbyn stopped me
"Let's go"
We walked to the uber he had ordered since the car was behind us in peices. I looked into the car and saw Jonah sitting in the back and jack in the middle seat
"Daniel?" I whispered as I crawled into the back and layed my head on Jonah's lap.
"He wasn't home when you call. I left him a message and he said he will meet is there." Corbyn climed into the seat next to jack and we were off.
***
We pulled up and I went shooting out the car and ran into the hospital, the boys close behind.
"Where is he!?" I half shouted running to the reception desk.
I got intercepted by Daniel who stood up from a chair and hugged me while pushing me back to a corner were we all sat.
"Where is he" no one had answered my question
"He came in about 5 minutes ago and they won't release anything to non family" Daniel answered with me still in his arms.
"Give her here" Daniel carefully handed my shaking body to jack who was sitting down.
I wrapped my arms around jacks neck and cried into his neck until I had fallen asleep.
***
"She is a mess, I don't think she is gonna leave until she knows he is ok" I woke up to whispering.
When I detached myself from a sleeping jack I saw Corbyn talking with Myta.
"Mama herron?" I whispered
"Oh honey, did we wake you" she hugged me tightly
"What time is it, when did you get here, what's going on with Zach" I rambled off the top three questions that were in my head.
"Slow down honey" she rubbed my shoulders "I got here about 2 hours ago. Corbyn called me right after you called him"
"Yeah ok, what's going on with Zach" she giggled a little and I just stared at her.
Did she think I was joking, I just saw one of my best friends get in a accident and I don't know if he is alive. Myta gave Corbyn a worried look and he just nodded his head. Then she lead me to two chairs and sat me down
"He has a few broken ribs and dislocated right hip. Also a concussion. He lost a lot of blood but that was so dealt with once Reece got here cause they share the same blood type. Along with a sprained ankle, So physically he is fine and will be back to normal in a matter of weeks. But....." she trailed off
"But what" I got scared
"He hasn't woken up yet"
My heart fell. After hours he still hasn't woken up. He should have woken up by now, he had to have woken up by now.
"C-can I see him?"
"Um...yeah if you want to" we linked arms and she led me to his room. Corbyn close behind.
Nothing could have prepared me for what I saw when I pushed through that door. Laying in a bed in the middle of the room, his whole stomach was wrapped up due to the broken ribs and dislocation. There was an IV coming out of his hand and a bandage on his head and ankle, a sleeping Zach was motionless and the only sound was the assuring beeping from his heart beat. 
A small Reece sat in the corner of the chair. A pink bandage was around her right elbow. I assume from the blood transfer. When she saw me she ran over and gave me a big around my waist. I picked her up and sat. Back down right next to Zach's bed.
"Y/n?" She whispered
"Yes sweety" I mumbled into her hair
"I'm scared"
"Me too honey" I stroked her hair hoping to calm her down like Jonah calms me down "me to"
***
Eventually we both fell asleep but I got woken up again by people talking.
I sat up as much as I could without disturbing Reece.
"Thank you doctor, we appreciate this so much" Myta was talking then there was a door close. I heard sobs and then saw Myta crying on the chair in the corner.
"Mama herron? What wrong" I stood up and laid Reece back in the chair. Myta looked at me and I saw fear and pain.
"The doctor just told me what is going on with Zach. "
"A-and?" I was almost scared to ask
"He is in a coma"
Just when I thought this night couldn't get worse, it did.
I didn't know what to do so I ran, I ran and didn't care where I was going. I started crying really hard, all I do is cry. I apparently went in a circle and ended up in the waiting room where the doctor had just given the boys and Bethany the news.
I stopped and stared at Bethany, she was the last person I wanted to see right now.
"You little bitch!" I walked right up to her and slapped her.
Her hand came up and to her cheek and she smacked me right back. Next thing I knew I had pinned her on the ground and was throwing punches.
"Get off of her" Jonah pulled me off and held me back whole Daniel walked Bethany out side with an ice pack.
"Serves her right, that little bitch" I was still crying.
"I understand what you are feeling-" Jonah tried to talk to me
"No you don't, it's all her fault if she hadn't cheated then me and Zach wouldn't have faught and then he wouldn't have left when he did and he would be ok!" I backed away "it's all my fault" I had finally realized it, it was my fault, if I had just waited a little longer to tell him or tried a little harder to get him to stay in the store. None of this would be happening, god what was I thinking
"no it's not y/n" He tried to grabbed my hand
"Yes it is!" I backed right into Corbyn who held me in a hug as I collapsed onto the ground in tears "it-t's all m-my f-fault"
"Shh" Corbyn whispered into my ear as he stroked my shoulder
"A-all my fault-t" we are there on the floor, everyone in the waiting room staring but I didn't care. My best friend was in a coma and it was mainly my fault.
***
I was sitting in Zach's room doing nothing but sitting next to his bed and talking to him.
"I'm sorry that your here, I'm sorry that everything ended up like this, I'm sorry that your stuck here and it's all my fault." I wiped a tear "if I had waiting a little longer then you wouldn't have left at that time and been fine. Or if I had followed you out the door and stalled you a little longer like I wanted to do then you would be home right now and everything would be fine." I took a deep breath to slow my breathing "I don't know if you can hear me but I need to tell you this while I know you are still alive, whether you can hear me or not." I hesitated before going on " I lo-" my phone rang through the empty room and I looked at the screen and saw Dave's face come up.
Shoot I have rehearsals tonight. I don't think I can deal with bring around people, especially since most of my songs are about Zach I swiped the green phone icon and pressed the phone to my ear.
Y: hello?
D: how fast can you get down to the amphitheater?
Y: I don't know why
D: we got some new equipment and we need you here to set it up for rehearsals
Y: right now?
D: yeah is there something wrong with that
I thought for a minute, I didn't want to leave Zach but I needed to get out of here.
Y:no, no problem at all. Be there in 20 minutes tops
D: you're the best y/n

I stood up and walked out the door ignoring the questions from the boys since Bethany was in the room and if I even saw her face I would start something and this time Jonah wouldn't be able to pull me off.
