By: Digigal13



Well, I'm back with more of this. Man, this thing is gonna be long. Well, I hope that you all liked the last one. Now, this one goes more into the romance and of what happened and what will happen. Oh, and if you didn't read the last one, lets just say that TK and Matt are in the hospital after a car accident had occurred. Now, On with the story!










In the morning, the doctor came to the room. Matt and TK had been watching TV but they turned it off as the saw the doctor come in. The doctor smiled but the smile didn't reach his eyes. It looked somewhat forced.
"Well, I have some good news and bad news guys." He announced. "The good news is, you can both go home in a couple of weeks." TK gave him a look that asked how that could be good news. "Hey, just think. You guys could be stuck in here for months!" The two brothers exchanged glances and nodded. They hated hospitals.
"But how can I go home if I can't walk? And TK isn't exactly on his feet either." Matt asked the doctor.
"That's the bad news. I'm telling you now that there is no easy way to break this to a person ok?" Matt and TK reluctantly nodded. "Matt, you might never be able to walk again. I'm not saying that it is impossible but it will take a lot of patience and devotion for this to work. I am very sorry boys." The doctor started to walk out of the room but stopped in the doorway. "Feel free to call anyone if you need to ok?" He left and Matt turned the best he could and faced the wall. TK's eyes filled with sadness for Matt.
"Matt, are you ok?" TK asked his brother. TK could hear Matt sobbing and went over to his bed. Matt looked at his little brother as he felt an arm go around him.
"TK? How am I ever going to sing again?" He buried his face in his hands and cried. TK hugged him tighter.
"I don't know Matt. But, we will cross that bridge when we come to it. How about if I call Kari and Mimi and have them come over?" Matt only nodded so TK picked up the phone and dialed Kari's number praying that she would be home.

"Oh my gosh, TK are you guys ok?" Kari exclaimed. TK had just told her about what had happened. Luckily, both she and Mimi were at the Kamiyas when TK called.
"Well, kind of. I'm on crutches for a couple weeks, maybe months. Matt is a different story. Can you two please come and stay with us for a little while?" Kari could hear the tears in TK's voice and her heart went out to both of the blonds.
"Sure, we will be there as soon as we can ok?"
"Ok, bye Kari. I love you."
"Love you too." Kari stifled a sob as she hung up. Mimi looked up from the game of solitaire that she had been playing.
"What's up? You look so sad." Mimi asked.
"There was an accident last night. Don't worry about that, no one died. But TK and Matt are in the hospital."
"What's wrong with them?" Mimi demanded to know.
"Well, TK is on crutches for a couple weeks or months. But Matt..." Kari let the sentence trail.
"But what? Kari, tell me! What's wrong with my Matt?" Kari grabbed their purses and her keys ad walked towards the garage.
"Let's just go see them. They need us." Mimi nodded and they drove to the hospital.




Once inside, the two girls ran to the front desk. A nurse smiled at them.
"Can I help you?" She asked.
"Yes. Can you tell us what room Yamato Ishida and Takeru Takaishi are in please?" Kari asked. The nurse looked something up on the computer and stood up.
"They are in room 206. I'll take you there" The two girls smiled at the caring nurse. She led them upstairs and to a room. The nurse left as soon as the girls walked towards the window. They peered inside and saw that TK was reading and Matt was asleep. They crept to the door, opened it, and walked in. Matt snapped awake; he must not have really been sleeping. TK marked his place and put the book away. Kari walked over and sat down on TK's bed and Mimi sat on Matt's.
"OK, we both know about TK, but what about you Matt?" Mimi asked him. He hung his head.
"The doctors..." Matt took a breath to stop his voice from shaking. "The doctors say that it will be a while before I can walk again. I hit my neck when I flew out of the car. I need someone to be with me through all of the physical therapy. Please Mimi, stay with me." Matt pleaded and Mimi got up.
"No, this can't, I can't, can't handle this..." She ran out of the room and Matt's eyes welled up with tears. He turned towards the wall and TK and Kari glanced at each other. They both went over to Matt and sat by him while he cried.
"Why? Why when I needed her most...does she have to leave?"







Well, was it any good. I left it at a cliffhanger just for you guys. Hee hee. Sorry for all of the Mimato fans but that isn't happening here. So, what will happen to Matt? Will Mimi come back, or make things worse? Keep reading to find out and please review! Flames not welcome but if you must...
