Chapter 1

All is quiet in the hospital apart from low but steadily increasing in volume whimpers coming from a certain room.

#FLASHBACK#

Laughing.

Traffic jam.

Fireworks.

Fire.

Running.

Screaming.

Speeding away.

Blaring horn.

Blinded by headlights.

Smell of burning tires.

Then silence.

Utter silence.

# END OF FLASHBACK#

Feliciano wasn't sure what was worse, waking up in a strange room or waking up at all. Drenched in sweat and gasping for air but almost screaming from the sharp shooting pain running across his chest and down his back.

Italy hears the door open and tries to lift his head but only manages to alert the person in the room that he is awake.

'Ahh, Mr. Veneziano, I see that you are awake' a friendly old nurse states to the confused and dazed Italian.

' I'm guessing by the look on your face you're wondering why you are here and even you are, well my dear boy, that will all by explained in due course but first I will have to alert the doctor that you are awake'

The Italian just blinks at the nurse before slowly slipping back into the realms of darkness beckoning him.

When the Italian woke with a start again, there was light flooding into the room through the windows where the curtains had been thrown open. At the foot of his bed stood a tall and gaunt man who looked like he had been bleached of all possible emotions. Once the man had noticed that Feliciano had awoken once more, he opened his mouth, which held the most perfect white teeth to speak.

'I see that you have woken up Mr. Veneziano and now I will explain why you are in hospital okay? But first I will just two nurses to check your vitals and raise your bed'

And as if on command, two nurses walked into the Italians room and started pushing several buttons and looking at the Italians vitals. Once that was done, the Italian muttered a small thank you as the nurses walked out again.

'Okay now that is done I will explain to you, why you are here' and with that brief clipped statement, the doctor began to what happened to the Italian.

' you were involved in a serious car accident, involving a head on collision with a 18 wheeler going nearly twice the legal speed limit after running from a fireworks accident'

' you are incredibly lucky, Mr Veneziano, as you only received several broken ribs, a crushed leg and fractures in your spine where your car was slammed from behind, that may seem not very lucky but as the only survivor in a crash this horrific, you are very lucky indeed'

'Unfortunately for you, this does mean that you will confined to a wheelchair for the rest for your life'

Feliciano took the news hard, screaming and ripping out the drip left in his arm. The doctor had to call for nurses to hold feli down while he sedated the Italian.

When he awoke again, he had been moved from the ICU to a fracture ward but his attention was drawn to the door opening by a nurse

'Hello Feliciano, I will be your personal nurse from now on and also there is someone to see you'

A/N: oh who is Feli's mystery visitor? Also no one major to this plot dies in the collision but I haven't who I should kill off ^. ^
