My Brother's Best Friend: a Jack Avery imagine

Part 20. Drunk Driver

Previously in My Brother's Best Friend

She grabs Isla and holds her, watching us walk out the door. Isla buried her face in her sister's neck, sobbing.

Jack and I get in the car as he starts driving to this 'perfect place.'

"Where are we even going?" I ask as we get on the highway.

"You'll see," he tells me as he looks over and smirks.
-------
I had fallen asleep in the car, and woke up to Jack's hand on my thigh, saying, "Babe, wake up. We're here."

"Huh?"

"That perfect place? That's where we are."

"Oh," I say, remembering what's going on. Jack gets out of the car and walks to my side, opening my door and picking me up bridal style. I wrap my arms around his neck and cuddle into him, like I did with Jonah two months before. I open my eyes a little more, realizing where we are: the Hollywood sign. He sets me down on a rock and walks back to the car, grabbing a sheet we had in the trunk to sleep on. I help him lay it out, and we walk back to the car once again to grab our one source of keeping warm: hoodies. "You didn't bring a blanket?"

"Excuse me, I was crying and I just got yelled at by my brother."

He sighs and we lay down on the sheet, his arms around my waist and mine around his chest. "I love you, Jack."

"I love you more," he fights, not this again.

"Not possible, I love you the most."

"I love you as much as Corbyn loves Christina."

"Wow, what a good comparison."

"It is! What's up with you?"

"Nothing. I'm really tired, baby."

"Okay, goodnight beautiful."

"Night, my love."

Jack's POV

I wake up to my phone buzzing, Jonah texted me.

Hoenah My Rice-
Hey dude not tryna be clingy and miss yall but theres a party tonight at Logan Paul's n i was wondering if you wanted to go.

Noodle Man-
We might come. Don't get your hopes up.

Hoenah My Rice-
K see ya

Noodle Man-
C ya

I feel Rose shuffling in her sleep, so I run my hands through her hair and kiss her forehead, seeing a small smile from on her lips. "Morning," she says to me, half smiling.

"Morning, beautiful. Jonah invited us to a party later, do you wanna go?"

"Yeah, as long as I don't have to interact with Daniel."

"I'll keep him away."

"Yeah, okay," she laughs at me trying to be tough.
---------------
That night at the party, 4 of the 5 Why Don't We boys got drunk. Zach somehow stayed sober. Logan got drunk too. Jonah and Corbyn we're being a bit wild, so Rose offered to drive them home. Jonah was a bit more sober than Corbyn, so he agreed for the both of them.

Rose's POV

"Jonah, Corbs. Let's go."

Corbyn stumbled his way over to me as I wrapped his arm around my shoulder and helped him to the car. Jonah followed, still not completely normal but mostly. Corbyn sat in the back, Jonah in the front. Then what I never hoped for happened.

I was kind of in a daze driving, the two drunk boys in my car just white noise against my thoughts. I snapped out of my daze to find Jonah's hand on my leg, which scared me so much that I swerved into the opposite lane of the road as two white lights headed straight for us. Then, everything went black.

Paramedic's POV

"Ma'am? Ma'am are you okay? Guys she's unconscious. Get her in the stretcher."

I look around in the car, searching for something like a drug or alcohol in the car that could've caused this. Then I find a phone in the glovebox. I hit the home button, as it automatically opens, clicking the call icon. The first person in her contacts is someone called My Love💜, so I call them.

Jack's POV

Where is Rose? It's literally been an hour. I feel my phone buzz in my pocket, to realize that I'm getting a call from Rose. I pick up to a man's voice on the line. "Hello?"

"Hello? Is Rose there?"

"Sir, I don't know who Rose is, but the girl we just found unconscious with two intoxicated men in the car is on her way to the hospital."

"What happened?" I say, trying to stay calm.

"We don't know how it happened, but she was just in major car crash. Both cars are totaled, the opposite victim was also injured, so much is going on."

"The girl you found, describe her to me."

"Long brown hair, light skin, blue eyes."

"That's Rose. God dammit, I should've went with her. I'll be to the hospital as soon as possible."

"Okay, sir."

I hang up and lean against the wall, sliding down in defeat. I shouldn't have let her go alone.

I run out to the driveway and see two cars: Daniel's and Logan's. I take Logan's, since Daniel would probably kill me. I start the car and drive off as fast as possible to the hospital, one tear escaping my eye.

Half an hour later, I walk into the hospital. "How can I help you," the desk woman says.

"Seavey, Rose?"

"Room... 27-03."

"Thank you," as I rush up to the 27th floor. The elevator finally stops, letting me out. I walk around looking for room 03, but all I see is rooms 02 and 04.

"Hey, do you know where room 03 is?"

"That's gonna be right down there," the man says, pointing down the long hall.

"Thank you."

I run down the hall and finally find room 03, opening the door and walking in to see my worst nightmare. My baby, unconscious in a hospital bed, scraped up and bleeding, her heart meter beeping slower and slower. I walk to the chair beside her bed, sitting down and grabbing her hand.

"Baby, please. I can't lose you. Not now. We just got engaged, you're pregnant, we're gonna have a family. Daniel misses you, so does Zach, Jonah, and Corbyn. Even Logan misses you. Christina'd be really messed up if you went. And don't even start on me. I need you. More than words can say, I need you. I could say I love you for the rest of my life, and it would never be enough. This whole thing, it's my fault. I shouldn't have let you go alone. I was drunk, and stupid, and, just, not me. Please, wake up. I need you."

I feel a tear fall down my face as I start shaking with sobs, nothing is the same.

*6 months later*

It's been six months, beautiful. Wake up. Please.
