Thank you all for reading this far! It means a lot to me! Almost to double digits!! Can we make it that far? Bare with me!!! Anyway, I don't have Internet right now, so my life is boring, so I'm trying to write a chapter each night. Lets see how long that lasts.

~Nash's POV~

"Will you make me the happiest man on earth and become my absolutely, amazingly perfect boyfriend?" I asked, holding my breath, waiting for an answer.

"Oh my god. Are you serious? Are you playing a prank on me?" he asked, dumbfounded. That was like a slap to the face.

"You don't trust me? I am honestly hurt by that. I would never joke like that. But, if you don't want to be my boyfriend, I'll just leave," I said, turning around and walking away. The fact that he didn't say anything to stop me hurt.

I started running out of the woods and back to Reece's house, because that's where my car was. I didn't even bother going inside before leaving. I hopped in the car and turned the key in the ignition. As I backed out, I felt the tears falling, and I just let them fall. As I rounded the third corner, the tears were so bad that I didn't see the semi as it came hurdling towards the passenger side.

I felt the impact as my head busted against the window and all I saw was black.

~Reece's POV~

He just walked off like it was no big deal. I was standing there stunned at the fact that he asked me out, and then left me alone. After a few minutes of silence, I regained my mind. I ran as fast as I could back home, because that's where Nash's car was.

I almost got hit my two cars and truck before I made it back to the house. The door burst aside as I sprinted inside.

"Reece? What the hell is going on? I thought you and Nash were upstairs?" Clary asked, running from the living room, with Matt right behind.

"W-w-we were i-in the w-w-woods," I stuttered, out of breath.

"What happened? Where is Nash?" Matt asked. I took a few deep breaths before answering.

"Isn't he here with you? He ran out of the woods like a bat out of hell," I explained. Matt's phone rang, and he answered it.

"He hasn't come back. Is his car still here?" Clary asked, walking to the door. She looked out, and turned back around. "Shit. His car isn't here."

"Um, guys? We have a problem," an ashen faced Matt said. "That was the hospital. They said Nash was in a bad car crash a few blocks away." I fell to the ground, the tears already falling.

"This is all my fault! If I would have said yes, this wouldn't have happened!" I screamed, punching the table top, causing my knuckles to bleed.

"Said yes to what?" Matt asked.

"Nash asked me to go for a walk. To show me a place in the woods," I started.

"The field? He showed that to you? Wow. You should have said yes, bro," Matt said.

"You may know what's going on, but I don't! What is going on?" Clary demanded.

"Nash asked me out, but I was too stunned to answer, so he ran off. He must have come back and got his car and wrecked it," I said, in a daze.

"Why are we still here? We should be going to the hospital!" Matt exclaimed. We climbed in the car and drove in silence to the hospital. When we got there, we walked up to the nurse at the counter.

"What can I help you with?" she said, in that bored monotone nurse voice.

"We are here to see Nash Grier. He was just in an accident," Matt said.

"Nash is upstairs in room 264B," she answered. We ran to the elevators and waited impatiently for it to go up. We found the right room, as a doctor was coming out.

"Are you here for Nash?" he asked.

"Yes," we all said.

"Only one person at a time. He was in a bad car crash and doesn't need cramped," he answered, stepping aside.

"I can't stand to see his face. Matt, you first. He knows you best," I said, a tear falling.

"Are you sure? He may want to see you," he replied.

"I'm sure. I'll go after you. And plus, someone needs to call the others. But, I don't have their numbers, so can I use your phone?" I asked. He grabbed his phone from his pocket and handed it to me, walking inside.

I went to his contacts list and searched for the first name I recognized. It happened to be Taylor's.

"Hey, what's up, lil bro?" Tay answered.

"Hey, this is Reece. Are the others with you?" I replied.

"Everyone but Matt and Nash, why?" Tay asked.

"Nash got in a bad car crash and is in the hospital. How fast can you make it?" I asked.

"We are already in the car. What happened? How did he get in the crash?" he asked, worried.

"We were in the woods, at the field-" I got cut off.

"He showed you the field?!" he said, in disbelief.

"Does everyone know about the field? But yes. He asked me out, but I was too stunned to answer. So, he ran off. He must of got in his car and wrecked it," I explained, pacing the halls.

"We are here, what room?"

"264B, and hurry," I replied, hanging up. A few minutes later, I heard the footsteps of the other seven boys, Hayes, and Mahogany. Just then, Matt walked out of the room.

"He is asking for you," he said, looking at me. I handed him his phone back and walked in.

"Reece?" came Nash's weak voice.

"Yeah, it's me," I replied, softly. Just looking at his bruised and bandaged face shot pain through my heart. I sat on his bed, by his feet.

"I'm sorry," he said.

"Sorry for what? It's my fault. I could have prevented all of this!" I said, getting angry at myself.

"Hey, don't get angry. I shouldn't have gotten in the car if I was crying," he replied, placing his weak hand over mine.

"You wouldn't have been crying if I would have said yes," I said. "If your offer still stands, my answer is yes. It was yes back in the woods."

"Then why didn't you say that back in the woods?" he asked, confused.

"I was too stunned, and you left before I could answer," I replied, holding his hand. "But the others are here, and they want to see you. I'll come back after they have a chance to see you, okay?"

"Promise?"

"I promise."

Sorry if this was shorter than normal. As I said earlier, this was in one night. At like 2:00 in the morning. But, please comment/vote to show your appreciation!!! Thank you and I love you!!!! xoxo
