I wake up to a bright light shining in my face. I rub my eyes and open them. I see that I'm laying down in my bed and Jonah is laying down next to me. His arms are wrapped around me and he's asleep. I lift my head and see Jonah's mom and Jenna asleep omg the couch in my room. But I don't see zach jack or Daniel. Now that I think of it, I barely remember yesterday. I remember everything up until when Daniel was telling that story and I fell asleep. I don't remember what happened after that. I watch as Jonah sleeps very soundly. I rub his arm, wanting him to wake up so we can talk. He doesn't wake up. He doesn't even move. I sigh and see my phone on the nightstand by my bed. I open it and go onto Instagram. I see all these people in my feed telling me they hope that I'm okay. It makes me smile. I thought for sure that they would be mad for dragging the boys into this. They don't know the full full story so that's probably why. But they know me and corbyn are dating. Zach accidentally said it in a livestream the other day. But everyone is taking it surprisingly well. They all really like me. "Oh, good morning. How are you feeling?" The doctor asked me as he walks into the room. "Good. But I don't remember yesterday." I said. "All of yesterday?" He asked. "No, I mean, like part of it." I said. "You had a panic attack so I gave you a sedative to calm you down. It's normal not to remember anything." He said. "A panic attack?" I said. "Yes. Don't think about it too much. You're okay now is what matters." The doctor said. "Okay." I said. "So, are you excited to go home today?" He asked me as he takes out his little flashlight and shines them in my eyes. "Yeah." I said. "That's good." He said as he writes stuff on a piece of paper attached to a clip board. "Am I allowed to use the bathroom if I have to?" I asked. "Yes, of coarse." He said. "Okay." I said as he walks out of the room. I look at Jonah and see that he's still asleep. "Jonah." I said as I shake him a little bit. He opens his eyes and looks at me. "Are you okay? What's wrong?" He asked as he sits up a little bit. "Nothings wrong. I was just gonna ask if you can help me to the bathroom." I said. "Oh, yeah." He said as he rubs his eyes, starting to wake up a little. "I'm sorry to wake you." I said. "It's okay. I should be getting up anyways." He said as he gets out of the bed. He walks to the other side to help me up. I sit up and hang my legs over the side of the bed. He grabs my hands as my feet hit the floor. My legs are really weak and shaky but I take a step. The floor is so cold on my bare feet. "There you go." He said as I start walking. Slowly, o get to the bathroom. "You got it?" He asked me. "Yeah." I said. "Okay." He said as he closed the door. I use the bathroom and then open the door when I'm done. Jonah was waiting outside the door so he's there when I get out. He grabs my hand and helps me walk back to bed. Jenna and Jonah's mom are still asleep. Why is everyone so tired? I look at the clock and see that it's 11:00. They probably went to sleep late. I lay back down in the hospital bed and Jonah sits next to me. "You going back to sleep?" He asked. "No. I'm actually hungry." I said. "Do you wanna go to the cafeteria? I can push you in a wheelchair." He said. I smile and nod. He smiles and grabs a wheelchair from the hall. I sit in it and he pushes me down the hall. "So what do you want to eat?" He asked me. "I don't know." I said.

         When we get to the cafeteria, Jonah pushes m past all the food so I can pick what I want. "I'll just have this." I said picking up a cup of fruit. "Okay." He said as he grabs one for himself as well. He buys it for us and pushes me to a table where we can sit down. "Is my face still...beat up." I said to him. "Yeah but it's healing." He said. "Can I see?" I asked. He nods and hands me his phone. I look in his camera and see that I have a black eye and bruises and cuts all over my face. "Holy shit." I said. "Yeah. It's bad." He said. I sigh and pick up a strawberry with my fork, putting it into my mouth. "I can't help but wonder what's gonna happen next." I said. "What do you mean?" Jonah asked. "I mean, it's one bad thing after the other. When is it ever gonna stop?" I said. "I'm sorry." He said. I shake my head. "It's fine. I'm sorry." I said. "At least you get to go home today. Well, corbyns house." He said. "Is he doing okay?" I asked as I take another bite of my fruit. "Yeah. He's a little sore in his stomach area but he's okay. He asks about you everyday." Jonah said. "Was he just as freaked out as I was?" I asked. "He was pretty freaked out at first but he's okay now. He just has really bad dreams so me or his mom or one of the boys will have to go see if he's okay in the middle of the night. The first three days he slept with his mom cause he was so scared." He said. "Aww I feel so bad. It's all my fault." I said. "Stop saying that. It's not your fault it's the people who kidnapped us faults." Jonah said. "They kidnapped you guys because you were there and they needed to make me feel bad about bringing you there. Plus, the kidnapper was my mom so it is my fault." I said. "I don't want to play the blame game cause it's never gonna end, okay? Just, don't blame yourself." He said. I nod and take a bite of my food. Jonah yawns as he plays with the fruit with his fork. "Wanna go back to the room?" I asked. "If you want to." He said. "Jenna and your mom are probably wondering where we are." I said. "Okay." Jonah said. He gets up and pushes me out of the cafeteria and down the hall. "Thanks for doing all of this for me." I said. "Of coarse. I'm here for you, always." He said. I smile as we enter my room. Jenna and Jonah's mom are awake. "Where were you guys? You scared me." Jonah's mom said. "We were just in the cafeteria." Jonah said. "Oh okay." She said. Jonah helps me out of the wheelchair and into bed. I leave a little room for him and pat the bed. He grins and sits down next to me. "Are you excited to finally be out of this hospital?!" Jenna said to me. "Yeah." I said. Jonah yawns and lays down. "I'm taking a nap." He said, laying his head on my lap. I play with his hair because it's so soft. "So, when can I get out of here? I wanna see corbyn." I said. "Soon. The doctors gonna come by in about an hour." Jonah's mom said. "Okay." I said.
