Jade's point of view…
"No!" you screamed as you watched the car impact Jess. You ran into the street after you witnessed it and grabbed her limp body and cried, "I'm so sorry, Jess. There was nothing I could do," you repeated over and over as you cried over her unconsciousness until help came.
As you sat in the hospital waiting room, you constantly reminded yourself that this was your fault. You waited miserably as the nurse approached you and said, "She's doing stunningly well despite her injured ribcage. She has a lot of will after all. You're Jade, right?"
You nodded as you thrived to hear more good news.
"She has a severely injured ribcage but she's very lucky that she didn't break it. The doctors are currently running several drugs into her so that she'll be stable enough for the procedure."
You nodded. She sighed and said, "I can't guarantee you any visitation today but maybe if you arrive early tomorrow, I can work something out with the doctors…She mentioned you, Jade. She wanted me to tell you…that she loves you and that she believes you about what happened at the party. She was just scared."
You sniffed and said, "Thank you, maam."
You then stood up and hugged her, throwing her off guard. But you soon released her to go on to her duties. You then sat down on the chair and waited.
"Hey man, I came as soon as I could. How is she?" Davey asked as he sat down next to you. You sighed and shook your head and explained to him Jess's condition.
He sighed and said, "I'm sorry about everything, Jade. I thought having the fans there would be a good thing,"
You interrupted him with, "Do you want to know why I did that? I honestly have no proper explanation other than, I knew that was what she wanted and for a second, I gave in. As soon as I came back into reality, Jesse was standing there. I know I upset Jesse really bad and she has all reason to hate me, but damnit, she better not die!"
You sighed yet again as you waited for more results.
Jess's point of view…
You sighed deeply as you opened your eyes. You were lying in a bed.
"Where am I? What happened?" you tried to scream but it came out a discrete whisper as you tried to get up but there was a great pain holding you down. You lied there trying to remember what happened. You ran out of the car and into the street…Did you get hit?
Then all of a sudden, little memories of the surgeries and the pain came back to you. You remembered the effect of the gas causing you to ramble on and on about everything.
You then felt a small tear slide out the side of your eye as your mind led to Jade.
You then shook yourself from the gut-wrenching feeling of betrayal. Then a nurse came in and suggested that you get more rest. You then asked her, "Is there a man out there named Jade? I want to see him," before she turned to leave. She looked at you sympathetically and said, "Yes. He's been here all night. I might be able to allow him to see you for a short time."
You sighed and wondered what Jade was thinking. Was he scared or hurting for you? Did he feel guilty for doing this to you unintentionally?
You shivered as he walked into the room. You noticed that he looked like he'd been crying endlessly.
"Jade," you said in a slight whisper. He looked at you in the eyes. You saw that his were bloodshot. "You look like shit," you said with a little laugh. He smiled and said, "I'd say the same for you but you're probably looking better than I am. How are you feeling?"
You readjusted your position and said, "Honestly, I feel horrible but maybe because I'm used to being able to move freely."
Jade didn't say anything. You then said, "I'm sorry I ran from you. It was the immediate reaction,"
He interrupted you by saying, "It's not your fault so you shouldn't be apologizing. It's my fault for letting that chick have her way with me. I should've stopped her. But when I came into reality, you had already seen what happened. So I didn't have anytime to explain."
You mouthed, "Oh," as you felt a little guilty for over exaggerating everything.
He sighed but smiled and said, "You had every reason to freak out, Jess. Imagine it the other way around. It's pretty much the same situation,"
You shrugged but laid back down as fatigue overcame you. You fell asleep.
Jade's point of view…again
Jess got better over the course of time and there were only a few days until the concert. You really were trying to convince the doctor to let her out for a few days mainly so she could be there for your concert. You so were ready and especially since this happened, it only made you want her more. You had to protect her OFFICIALLY.
Jess's point of view…
Tired, you let out sigh. Emily was coming over today and you were thriving for details on her wedding night experience. Maybe it was girl instinct to insist on the manifest session.
As she walked in the room and sat down and you smiled and said, "Hey, Mrs. Geiger, what's up?"
She rolled her eyes and said "Not much, I'm just visiting your crippled corpse. Stupid, you can be so naïve sometimes. "
You shook your head an asked, "So, tell me details on your big night. What was it like?"
She smirked and looked around before bending down to whisper in your ear.
As she finished every detail, Jade had just walked in the room. You looked at Emily and busted out laughing. Jade just stood there confused. You shook your head and said, "Hey Jade, where've you been? You haven't been visiting near as much!"
He smirked and said, "I've been super busy with the concert coming. This is one of the biggest ones we're having in a year. Plus, I had to persuade your doctor to let you out for that day. I can't believe it, tomorrow night, huh?"
You nodded enthusiastically as he sat down next to Emily.
"So how's the whole marriage thing? Its it as good as it seems?" he asked obliviously.
Emily sighed and said, "It's fine, I've only had over a million people ask me about since I came back from my honeymoon."
Jade laughed and looked at you and gave the warmest smile.
"What?" you asked.
"Nothing…just thinking. Hey, we're going to have to start driving early tomorrow so we might want to get you a little earlier than we thought. Rest up; it's going to be a long drive."
Jade's point of view…
You sighed as you walked into the privacy of the studio for a last minute meeting with your band about the concert.
"What am I going to do? I'm so nervous!"
Adam suggested that you play a love song. You shook your head while Hunter and Davey suggested a small little speech of how much she means to you and stuff.
"Man, I'm really proud of you for doing this. I think you two really have a good thing going. I say as your friend and band mate, go for it!" Davey gushed.
You smiled confidently and said, "Tomorrow, I propose to Jesse!"
