Leanne screams Nick's name while running towards his nearly lifeless body. He is lying completely still on his back, his head is tilt to one side, his eyes are closed and his arms and legs are stretched out. As Leanne runs to him on the road, she notices a pool of blood coming out of his right ear.

"Oh my gosh! Nick, Nick! Nick, can you hear me? Can you hear me, Nick?", Leanne panics while shaking his body, trying to wake him up.

"Dad, Granddad, anyone! Open the door! Help us!", Simon yells as his bangs on the door.

"Whoa Si, what's wrong?", Peter asks as he opens the door to see Simon full of tears.

"It's Nick, he's been hit by a van", Simon cries. Stepping out of his house, Peter sees Leanne besides an unconscious body on the road.

"Ok, ok, I'll call an ambulance", Peter gasps as he dials 999.

Leanne is desperately trying to keep herself together, but as each second passes, it keeps getting harder and harder for her to stay in control.

"You're going to be ok Nick. I promise, you're going to be fine", Leanne sobs, knowing she cannot keep such a promise.


It has been a few minutes, but the ambulance has now arrived. The paramedics rush to Nick's side, asking for Leanne to give them some space. Leanne reluctantly agrees. After asking him questions and gently shaking him to which Nick doesn't respond to, they check for his breathing, but it is very inadequately. Then they check for his heart rate, but it is very faint. They put a cervical collar around his neck and they put him on a trauma board which is quickly transported onto a stretcher. Swiftly, they put a bag valve mask over his mouth to help him breathe normally, while they push him towards the ambulance. As soon as they come towards the vehicle, Leanne begs them to let her join them:

"Please let me come with you, please"

The paramedics reluctantly agree and soon the ambulance drives off to the hospital.

Leanne whispers to the man she loves, "Please don't die, Nick. Please don't die"
