Ashley's POV

Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. I'm driving to the hospital after calling Spencer to meet us over there. Jesus, all I got from Lucy was that there was an accident when they were driving to LAX and that Alex is in surgery. Oh and that she called Wiley, who is now driving down as fast as she can.

We pull into the hospital. Arden is in a quiet freak out right now and Kyla is trying to calm her down. She's never done well with death. Her goldfish died a few months ago and she cried the whole day. Death just freaks her out, and hearing that Alex got into an accident must be horrible because those scenarios of death are flashing through her mind at light speed.

I run into the hospital and spot Lucy right away. God, she hasn't changed a bit. Lucy Reed with her long, flowing straight jet black hair, dark brown intense eyes, and slim figure. I would say she still looks tough, but she looks a mess right now. Her hair is everywhere, a gash above her eyebrow is stitched up, her eye is purple and she looks scared. She spots me and smirks slightly. Yep, there's the infamous smirk. She wraps her arms around me and says in a quiet voice, "It's good to see you again, Davies. Been a long while. Just wish it wasn't a crash that brought us back together."

"Yeah, Luce, good to see you, too. How is she?"

" She just got out of surgery. I swear that car came out of nowhere and smashed right into her side…I was knocked out and I haven't seen her since the crash. The other driver died instantly. The doctors say she broke her right foot and two ribs. They had to stitch her up too, some pretty nasty gashes, I guess."

"Oh god, I hope she's ok." I look back at Arden and Kyla, who are standing there, letting everything soak in. They only met her a week ago, and yet they're completely devastated. I don't know if its out of sympathy for me, or if she made such an impression on both of them that they feel as though they're loosing a friend.

I look towards the doors and see Spencer walk in, looking around the waiting area for us. I wave and motion her over. "Spence, this is Lucy Reed. Luce, this is Spencer Carlin, my girlfriend."

"Ah, right, Spencer, heard so much about you from Alex. Glad you wrangled Davies over here. Can't have her competing with me for biggest ladies woman."

I chuckle. "Nah, it's not me anymore. But watch out for the little Davies over there. She's me…only worse." I wink and she laughs.

Spencer looks up as a blonde doctor walks in. It's Paula Carlin. "Hey mom, how is she? Can we see her?"

Paula nods, "Yeah, she just woke up. You can visit one at a time. She might be a little groggy and out of it."

Everyone looks at me and I nod, "Yeah, I'll go first…Thanks, Paula." Paula tells me the room number and I make my way in.

Alex looks so small and fragile. Tubes and various machines hooked up to her, her cheek and eyebrow stitched up and her leg in a sling with her foot wrapped up. Her curly brow hair in a messy bun as she looks up at me and smiles weakly, "Hey Ash….fancy meeting you here…"Always the jokester.

"Hey, Al…how ya feeling? You got knocked pretty bad there…"

"Eh, not my week. Slapped earlier this week by some strange brunette and now stuck in a hospital instead of being on a plane to Ireland. Ah, such is life."

"Wow, Al, you don't seem too down about it…I mean you should be pretty bummed you aren't going."

"Eh…it happens. Plus after seeing you guys again, I really didn't want to leave…I missed you, guys…Plus, that sister of yours is kinda hot, man…" She wiggles her brows, wincing when she remembers one of them is stitched up.

I glare at her, "Oh yeah, which one? Because you got pretty cozy with both of them yesterday…"

"Yeah, yeah…" She waves me off, weakly. "I meant Arden…actually. We've been talking. Cool chick." She smiles goofily.

I roll my eyes at her. "Yeah, yeah I know, just before I got the call from Lucy, I was threatening to show you embarrassing pictures of her for using my phone to get your number…"

"Ah. I was wondering how she got it. Well, I like photos...But…uh I have I surprise for you…" She said happily.

"Oh yeah? What?"

"So ya know how I was doing a study abroad program…It was a program offered by UCLA…I was down here for house hunting."

I scream and yell and jump up and down like a spazz. "Wooooohooo!" Then I stop and slap her arm. "You jerk, I thought I wouldn't see you forever." She grins and shrugs, rubbing her arm.

"So now all I have to do is sort it out with UCLA and I'll be going there when you guys are." She rolls her eyes. " Which will be a joy…"

Kyla, Arden, Spencer and Lucy all run in, panting. Kyla speaks up, "What's…going…on…we heard…screaming…" Then she looks at me with the giant grin on my face. "Ash…we're in a hospital…your friend just got into a car accident and your grinning like a fucking Cheshire cat…what's going on?" I look at Alex and motion her to tell them. Lucy sees and smiles, she obviously was in on this, wouldn't surprise me if Wiley knew too.

"Um…well, I'm going to UCLA with you guys and staying here in LA…" She braces herself for another crazy jumping fit. As the news sinks in Kyla runs and hugs Alex tightly, "OhmygodOhmygodOhmygod, really? You're staying? Your not leaving me with these crazy people?" Hey, I am so not crazy. Alex winces. "Yeah if you get off my broken ribs…" Kyla jumps off of her. "Sorry, sorry, sorrryy, I'm just so happy."

Alex looks at Spencer. "Did you give her caffeine, sugar and/or hyper pills while you were waiting, for big head over here to finish in here with me?" ? Big head? Alex winks and smirks at me while Spencer looks down at her feet.

"Uh…maybe a donut…or two…" Kyla nods her head like a crazy person.

"Alrighty then…" Alex looks at Arden, who hasn't moved since the news. You would think that she would have a bigger reaction than Ky. I mean she's the one who's been sneaking around talking to Alex without everyone else around. "Ard…? You ok?" Alex asks quietly.

Arden looks at her and nods, "Uh, yeah. Guys can you give me a sec with Alex?" Spencer tilts her head and looks curiously between the two, while Lucy nods and walks out of the room with me, Kyla, and Spencer in tow.

Once we get out of the room I tell Spencer to go finish packing and start loading up the truck. I give her a quick peck and she grins before leaving. God, I'm so lucky to have her moving in with me.

I can't help but be an overprotective friend and sister, so I tell them I'll catch up later and make some random excuse about the bathroom. I've gotta find out what's going on…
