Chapter 25

Deanna's family, and Kendall were starting to get worried about Deanna. All of them, even Camille and the boys had tried calling her, but no luck. Channel 2, CBS News, was on and Mr. Bitters had turn up the volume of the TV in the lobby to hear the weather. After the weather was done, one of the anchors had reported about the incident that happened this morning in front of Rocque Records.

"Tragedy had struck in front Rocque Records this morning. 16 year old, Deanna Jonas, was hit by a speeding car. The driver of the car was being chased by the police before the incident happened…"

As the anchor continue to give details on what happened, every single person in the lobby had their eyes glued to the TV. When the report is over, Carol was tempted to go to the police station right away, but at the same time she remained calm. Kendall, on the other hand, shed a tear with anger across his face, knowing that if Gustavo hadn't invite her to come over then this wouldn't happen, she would still be here with her family and right next to him. Kendall now knows that his fiancée is in the hospital, although does not know if she is dead or alive.

"Kendall…" Carol remained strong, not letting a tear come out of her eyes. "You take Liz and Joseph with you to the hospital near Rocque Records. And if Deanna is there, give me call. Me and Dan will go to the Police Station to see what really happened."

Mrs. Knight took Deanna's mom and her boyfriend, along with Debra to the Police Station. Kendall took Deanna's siblings, along with guys and Camille to the hospital. Logan had called Kelly to inform Gustavo about what happened.

"Kelly said that they will be there right away." Logan had hung up the phone. James was driving as fast as he could without getting caught speeding. "Hang in there, Kendall. She's going to be alright." Camille comforted Kendall. Kendall was still in the state shock. Deanna's sibling, Liz and Joe, were worried about their big sister. Both of them tried to occupy themselves by the fascination of Hollywood. Carlos was trying to make conversation with Liz, he didn't know what to say despite the situation that is happening right now.

They all got to the lobby of the hospital; Kelly and Gustavo were already there. Kelly walks toward to them, "I just talked to the receptionist and Deanna is here. But she said that only family goes first." Everyone didn't know whether Joe and Liz goes up to see her first, since they are family but at the same time, Kendall should go first, since Deanna is his fiancée. Liz and Joe had a discussion where they think Kendall should go in first while they call their mom, they both agreed and told Kendall. Kendall nodded at them, he approached to the receptionist counter. The rest of them had taken a seat in the waiting area.

"Hi. I'm Kendall Knight and I'm here for Deanna Jonas and well, I'm her fiancée. Her family will be here as soon as possible." One of the nurses had got out of the counter to walk with Kendall to Deanna's room. As they were walking, the nurse was explaining Deanna's condition and what happened in the operating room. "Well here's her room." The nurse had opened the door for Kendall to walk, as he walked towards Deanna, the nurse closed the door behind him. He stood there by her bedside looking at the condition she was in.

Even though she had cuts around her face, she was sleeping like angel. "This is my entire fault…" He sat down, took her hand and placed it against his cheek. "I wish you hadn't said Yes to Gustavo. Why did you have to say yes?" Tears rolled down from his eyes.

About an hour later, Deanna's family had come up to the room. Carol was in state of shock to find her daughter in critical condition. Liz began to shed a tear. Kendall had left the room to give the family some time alone. He went back to his friends. He had informed what the nurse had told him, and Gustavo, for once, felt guilty inside. Gustavo had the thought of how Kendall explained to him that he didn't even want to date Lauren. Liz had come down to tell them that all of them can see Deanna.

They all got to the room. Deanna was surrounded by her family and friends. They were all grateful to the doctor to even let them all in Deanna's room. Gustavo apologized to Deanna's family about what happened in his office this morning; he even thought this was his fault, which apparently it was. 45 minutes later Deanna's EKG went dead. Nurses and doctors rushed in the room, everyone was being pushed out of the room by nurses. They all looked through the window, seeing the hospital staff doing their best to keep her alive. The doctor looked up and headed out the door, "I'm sorry everyone. We did the best we could to keep her alive but even after surgery her heart was too weak. Once again, I'm sorry." Deanna's mom broke out into tears, as well as her Liz. Carlos went to comfort Liz, while Joe was trying to hold back his tears. On the other hand, Kendall was frustrated, filled with anger that he ran to go outside, Logan, Camille and James ran after him. As soon as Kendall gout outside, he immediately got into the car, shift the gear into drive, and crashed himself into the side of hospital building. Logan, Camille and James could not believe their eyes. Kendall killed himself, so that he could be Deanna. Nurses, Paramedics, and Doctors rushed Kendall inside the operating room, but it was already too late. Kendall was dead.

But for some strange reason… Kendall heard Deanna's shouting at him.

"Hey you, wake up! You're gonna be late for work! Gustavo is going to kill you! And don't forget we still have to pick up my family from the airport." Kendall woke up in Deanna's apartment, everything was dream. Kendall went to the kitchen to check if Deanna was there. Deanna was making breakfast, "Well… you sure overslept. Did you have a goodnight sleep? Anyways, you better go back to your apartment to get dress and GO TO WORK!" Kendall was filled with joy, he ran to her and picked her up; "I love you, you know that?." Deanna was in confusion, "Of course, I know that you love me, and… I love you too."

Kendall went back to the bedroom and checked his phone and immediately called Gustavo. "Hey Gustavo, its Kendall. About dating Lauren, I don't think it's going to work out."

Gustavo was discompose as to what Kendall was talking about. "Uhh Kendell, what are you talking about? And who is Lauren? I thought you were dating Deanna?."

"Yeah, I am dating her. But I thought you wanted me to date someone else…"

"Well, I thought about it and you won't be dating anybody."

Kendall was ecstatic to hear that he doesn't have to date anyone but his beautiful fiancée. "If you don't mind, I'll be coming in late."

"Yeah yeah whatever, see you later in the studio."

Gustavo and Kendall both hung up.

He still can't believe that everything happened was a dream. He thought for sure that Deanna died, and then he killed himself and expected Deanna to come back alive and kill herself, just like Romeo and Juliet. But Kendall was happy that it was dream. Kendall went back outside to join Deanna for some breakfast.

And yeah, duhh… they live happily ever after.
