Newts POV

Gaining conscious, my eyes begin to flutter open. Dazedly, I look around the unfamiliar room I was in. The walls are white, there's beeping and whirring sounds. Only then do I realize, I'm in the hospital. And then only do I realize, my chest hurts.

Groaning from the sharp, unbearable pain, I examine the various tubes and needles in me. If I were to explain the pain, I would say that someone took a burning red hot knife, and plunged it into my heart.

I look to my right and see somebody sitting motionlessly in a chair next to me. He had his fingers intertwined with mine and I realized it was Tommy. Somehow, the sight of him relieves some of the pain in my chest.

"Tommy?" I ask in a whisper too low to hear. "Tommy." I say a little louder.

He let's out a soft groan as he begins to wake up. Opening his eyes, they linger in the ground for a moment, then he tears them away immediately to look at me.

"Newt?"

"Hello Tommy." I smile weakly. He gets up and gives me a deep kiss. It feels like it's been ages since our lips have met. He pulls away and sits back down, still holding my hand.

"How are you feeling?"

"I'm fine." I lie.

He looks around the room and stares at all the machines and needles.

"Nah, I think not," he says, "but really, how to you feel?" He asks, concerned.

"Well, my chest does hurt, and that's it really." I say. There's a moment of silence, and I ask him something I dread the answer for. "How long do I have?"

He looks away and I can see it in his eyes; it's not good. Suddenly, he gets up from the chair, letting go of my hand. He grabs his phone and kisses me on the lips.
"I'll see you later okay?"

"Okay." I say, hurt. He leaves without saying goodbye.

Thomas's POV

Later that night, I couldn't stop thinking about Newts question. How am I supposed to tell him he's going to die? I couldn't do that to him. Starting to get emotional, I grab my car keys and go for a ride. I turn in the ignition on drive to the highway. I don't even know where going, but I need to get away from every thing. I look at the speed limit and realise that I'm going to fast. But I don't care.

Then, crossing an intersection, I see a semi coming to my left. I stomp the brakes as the the semi collides into me.

Newts POV

I slowly wake up and open my eyes. The last thing I remember was Thomas leaving. My chest hurts worse, but... It feels different. I lift the collar of my hospital gown and notice stitches on my chest.

"Careful, their fresh." I look over to see my mom. "Mum, what happened?"

"Well, they found a donor, they ran the tests and it's a complete match. They performed surgery two days ago and your finally going to be okay." She said happily.

I smile, relieved, but then it disappears. "Where's Tommy?"
She starts to tear up, "Well, Newt that's the bad news.

" What do you mean?"

"Thomas, got in a car accident. A semi T-boned him, he...he's dead Newt"

Those words strike like a sword. It hurts my new heart. "What?" I ask crying.

"He's gone, but..."

"But what?" I say shaking.

"His family donated his heart... They ran the tests and... You have his heart Newt..."

I don't know what to say. I can't stop the burning hot tears from spilling down my face. It hurts my hea-Thomas's heart... My heart.

Our heart, a voice says in my head.
