"So my first question for you as a friend," he starts, "Why is you sister and mom the only people you open up to?"

"Because they are the only people I love. Why do you think I call my sister 'Sunshine'? Because she is the only light in my life."

"What do you mean?"

"You'll have to wait and find out."

We stay smiling at each other. Talking about random things. But then I hear my mom yell from inside the house. I run in to see my sister passed out on the floor. I think fast. "Ashton call 911." I yell. He does as I say. I keep trying to wake her up. No luck. I can't cry. No one has ever seen me cry. But what if she's gone. I don't realize I'm crying until i feel droplets on my arm. Moments later the paramedics come in. 

"Ma'am you need to move we can't help her if you don't move," the man says sharply. He tries to push me away but I move his hand off my shoulder.

"Don't fucking tell me what to do! That's bullshit move around me!" I yell. the tears were now a waterfall making a puddle on the ground. I feel large hands wrap around my torso and pull me back. I sit there crying and in shock. Ashton still hugging me. My mom was already headed to the hospital. They lifted Jenna onto the stretcher and took her out of the house and into the ambulance. Ashton pulled me up. By this time I had calmed down not crying. We were walking toward his car. As I got in the passenger seat I turned my head towards the window. Because once again I was crying and Ashton had seen enough tears. He started the car and started driving.

"Jess, it's okay to cry." He says.

"No its not." I scoff and laugh at the same time, "I have to stay strong for Jenna's sake, my mom's sake. It's better this way." 

He grabs my hand, "You can stay strong, just know I'm here for you." 

We get to the hospital within 10 minutes. when we get to the 4th floor I go to the front desk.

"Miranda where is my sister?"

"Same room as always. God I'd think you would have gotten the hang of it already!" She blurts out glaring at me.

I am to busy to reply so I just flip her off and continue to walk off. As I arrive at the door my mother is running out. "I can't do this right now."

She continues heading toward the elevator. I guess this means that she is gone for the day.

And tomorrow.

I walk in with Ashton and immediately am greeted by the doctor. "Ms. Bentley, you might want to sit down." Uh oh.

"What's wrong?"

He looks at me for a second before speaking again, "Jessica, your sister is in a coma."
