Silence hovered over the room.

Ed's mother was waiting outside, she was talking to the nurse for more information.

Inside, Eddy, Edd and Sarah were alongside Ed's bed.

"I'm gonna go get a Soda," Eddy informed. Silently leaving the room. Eddy began to hum to himself on the way out.

Sarah lept closer toward Ed's arm, and laid her head down against his shoulder.

"Do you think he could hear me? I mean,...If I talk to him?" Sarah asked, shifting her eye's toward Eddward.

He shrugged.

"Maybe..If you believe hard enough." He sighed.

She turned toward her older brother. She lowered her head toward Ed's ear.

Whispering, the sweetest words she had ever mentioned.

"I'm sorry..Ed." She began, as some tears rolled down her pale cheek. "I'm so, so sorry.."

No reaction, Edd noticed Sarah crying even harder now.

He quickly lowered his eyes to his hands, avoiding the emotion flooding the air.

His thumbs started twiddling.

His eyes began shifting across the room.

"Double D...What if he doesn't make it..I-I was..so..Horrible." She gasped between sobs. Covering her eyes. The tears started to sting her eye lids.

"I'm sure he know's no matter what you've done, you loved him very much."

Sarah said nothing more.

"You do love him, don't you?" Edd asked concerning while still twiddling.

"O-Ofcourse.." She answered hesitating-like.

She laid her head against Ed's shoulder once again. The light from the lamp above them both shined against Sarah's tears.

And Ed's sweating.


Eddy was to afraid to enter back inside the room. The nurse was already at her desk,

Ed's mother was waiting for her daughter.

He sat uncomfortably next to her, taking small quick sips between words.

"Sorry about your son." He confessed. "My dad's the worst driver on the planet...To many drinks." He chuckled, trying to make the conversation funny. But failed, mother continued facing one direction with the same expression.

In shock.

"And..my dad's sorry too." He said rubbing his shoulder. Waiting for a reply from the disturbed mom.

"Eddy..I accept your apology...But..Not your fathers." She said turning her head.

Eddy's formed a gap.

"It was..so unbearable.." She cried, clinging onto her purse for dear life.

"Ed needs his rest now ma'am, you'll have to come back tomorrow." The nurse informed shyly.

Ed'smother greeted Sarah inside taking her by the arm, and walking her to the car.

Eddy didn't leave untell Edd was ready, he thought it felt right to let him be.

Soon around 7 they left the building.

Ed sleeping threwout the whole thing.

It seemed to continue as an endless nightmare.


Eddy slept over again with Double D, but this time he didn't refuse the first time.

It was for the best, the two could keep each other's minds off Ed.

Double D was making Eddy's sleeping bag more comfortable While he was changing into his sleep-like clothes.

"Hey Eddy,"
"Yeah?" Eddy answered from the closet.

"Do you think...mmm..Do you think we were fair to Ed all these years?" Edd croaked.

Eddy appeared out of the closet, with a black shirt with a yellow skull on the front, and white sweat pants hanging low.

"Fair? The guy nearly ruined every scam I could think of." He answered tucking himself under his blankets

Edd jumped out of his bathroom in his dark blue pajamas, with yellow stars on them, strands of blond fell threw his hat.

"Why do you wear that to bed?" Eddy asked.

"I dunno..I'm so used to it I guess."

The sun had set, it was dark and gloomy outside, and dark and quiet inside.

Cricket sounds came from Edd's window.

And low breathing came from Eddy.

The fan above their heads continued spinning.

And the minds of the boy's as well.

Never stop thinking about their best friend. Praying for this nightmare to end.

Eddy: "Another night of no sleep, I could hear Double D crying."
