Ashlin's POV

I woke up to Darby sobbing, I went over to her and hugged her. She woke up, "I had an awful dream. It was the worst one yet." she said.

"It's ok Darby, we both know that your dreams don't come true. I know they seem real, but they're not." I grabbed her bracelet. "Just remember, this will keep you safe. Now go back to sleep." She went strait back to sleep.

Darby's POV

I woke up to hospital food, and everyone was still in the corner sleeping. I don't know why everyone didn't like hospital food, I actually kinda liked it. I finished eating and when the nurse left, everyone woke up. "I'm starving." Niall said. I couldn't help but to giggle.

"Niall, When are you not hungry?" I laughed, it actually hurt to laugh.

"We're going to McDonalds, do you want anything?" Harry asked.

"Yeah, could you bring me 30 piece chicken with a large fry and a milkshake." I smiled.

"Alright, we'll be right back." Harry laughed.

When they left, I could feel my heart racing, then I could hear what the doctors were saying. I couldn't move any part of my body. "She's panicking, we need to get her stabilized!" the doctor yelled. I could feel them pushing on my chest, I could feel every moment of it. I wanted to tell them I was fine but I couldn't because of the mask they had on my face. A few minutes later, it stopped. They stopped pushing, they stopped everything. I could hear the faint sounds of the machines beeping to show my heart rate. It was creepily slow and menacing. I saw Ashlin come in, she was crying. The boys came in behind her and they were crying too. Ashlin grabbed for my hand and I could hear everything they were saying.

"What happend to her?" Ashlin demanded.

"She had a seizure, she has slipped into a comatose. She can hear and see everything but she can't respond." the doctor explained. "We don't know how long she'll be stuck like that."

"She can't stay like this forever, I have something to tell her." Ashlin said in between sobs. I wonder what she wanted to tell me.

Ashlin's POV

That video we posted in YouTube had over 2,000,000 views. I had gotten a call from the same agency that discovered Justin Bieber, they wanted to sign us to their label. I told the boys about it and they were happy for us, they didn't know that we could sing. When I saw Darby just laying there it ripped my heart out.

_____One Month Later_________

I had told the company that I couldn't do it without Darby. They understood and said that they will talk with us when she gets better. I visited her everyday, the boys were in the studio writing so they couldn't come. I came in and put my head on her hand, it was so cold. I remembered back when we were little and her hands were always cold, it made me laugh. Then I felt her hand twitch, "Darby? Darby!!" she started moving. "NURSE!" I yelled. I didn't know what was happening she kept twitching.

"What is it?" she asked, then she saw what was happening, "The feeling is coming back in her muscles. That means she's getting better." I squealed.

"Don't do that ya nerd." I didn't know where that voice came from. I looked over and Darby was sitting up, looking at me,

"DARBY!!!" I yelled. "You're back!" I rapped my arms around her neck and hugged her. "I have so much to tell you."

"How long have I been like this?" she questioned.

"Almost a month." I answered.

"Well doc, when can I get outta here?" she asked the nurse.

"Well, since you have made a miraculous recovery. You can go home any time now."

My eyes lit up, "Can she go now!?" I asked enthusiastically.

"I don't see why not." she said. I hugged the nurse and ran back to Darby.

"You ready to come home?" I asked. She nodded her head yes and I ran and got her clothes that I had packed. I gave her a sweatshirt and some yoga pants. She put them on and we put her in a wheelchair, they wouldn't let her walk out. I drove her home and I still hadn't told her about the videos. She walked in and ran to her bed, she had totally forgotten that she had been shot in the leg twice, her shoulder, her hip, and her side three times. I still don't understand how she didn't cry, being shot had to hurt. I called up Louis to tell him the news.

"Lou she's home!" I exclaimed.

"She is? Oh my god that's amazing. I'll tell the others now. I have to go, we'll talk later." then he hung up.

Darby's POV

I was so happy to be home. I was holding my teddy bear and saw a whole bunch of flowers and cards that were laying on my desk. Then Ashlin walked in, "I see you've found all the cards. It's from directioners who had heard about what happend. It was trending on twitter for weeks." I couldn't believe that people actually cared about me, I'm just a normal person. "I have something to tell you." I was worried that it was going to be bad. "Remember those videos we posted a couple months ago?" she questioned.

"Yeah, what about them?" I wondered.

"Well, I got a call. From the people who discovered Justin Bieber, and they want to sign us." I stopped breathing for a moment.

"Well, what did you say?!" I said excitedly.

"I told them I would get back to them when you got better."

"Well call them right now, and tell them I'm all better!" I yelled. She called them up and said that we would do it. Then I got some texts,

Nialler x

"Glad to hear you're feeling better :D"

Harreh >'.'<

"YAY you're better :) text me!!"

LIAM

"Happy that you're better. If you party, don't party too hard ;)"

Zayn M.

"You're home!! Good, I'll text ya later."

Boobear

"I left you a teddy, it's by your bed. Good to know you're better. :D"

I looked for the teddy, it was where he said it was. It was small and it had a bracelet around its neck. The bracelet had a whole bunch of charms on it, one was HelloKitty, another was a dragon. It had my name on it and it had a 1D charm on it as well. I had to giggle at that, it was so cute. I went through all of the cards and I sat down for 6 hours and wrote them all back. Then I got in twitter, I had so many DM's and I replied to all of them too.

Ashlin came running in my room, "Darby, Darby, Darby!!" she exclaimed. "The record guys want to fly out here so they can meet us, they'll be here tomorrow!"

"Yay, we better get to sleep now do we can wake up early. Night, love you."I said as she walked out the door.

"Love you too." she shouted from her room.
