"Don't move him!" the paramedics on scene yelled to the surrounding crowd as they rushed to Criss's side. After having seen the way Criss landed, they worried about the possibility of paralysis, so they needed to keep him still for as long as possible. Dimitra Sarantakos was closest to Criss aside from those hastily examining him. She stared at her son tears, dropping from her eyes. This is exactly what he promised would never happen, she thought to herself. The paramedics hoisted Criss up trying to maintain the same position, and set him gently on a stretcher. They lifted him in to the Emergency Vehicle which had been driven closer. Dimitra tried to follow her son, to ensure that he was okay, but the paramedics didn't allow it since they had no inkling of the severity of his injuries. She sobbed as the doors closed in front of her and the vehicles sirens blared as it drove away. She felt a pair of strong hands squeeze her from behind and turned to see her two other sons. She fell in to their arms, and they semi-carried her to their own car before following Criss to the hospital.

Luna's mind swam with all the countless possibilities that might have happened to Criss, to a point where she almost missed the hospital exit. As she neared the tall brick building, her breath caught in her throat. She wished she had been there for Criss, although she knew there wasn't much she could have done. She parked her car in haste and rushed inside the hospital. She ran to the reception desk, and frantically asked for Criss Angel's room. The woman seemed unfazed by Luna's sense of urgency, and took her time looking for Criss's name.

"Are you a family member?" the receptionist asked. Luna hesitated considering lying, but then shook her head no. The receptionist sighed and then repeated a familiar statement. "I'm sorry ma'am but with the state this patient is in right now, only family member are allowed to see him." Luna's eyes welled with tears and she thought about arguing with the woman but then caught herself realizing it would do no good. Instead she put that energy to use searching for some familiar face.

As she rounded the halls in the emergency unit, she spotted not a familiar face, but rather a familiar logo. A group of about 4 people sat together in black shirts sporting Criss's logo. Luna walked up to the group and asked if they were there for Criss.

"Yeah, we're his crew. And who are you?" they asked in a slightly rude tone as if they thought she was just an over enthused fan.

"I'm his girlfriend, Luna," she replied wondering if Criss had told them about her. She then realized he had because their expressions softened.

"Oh sorry," said a woman with long blond hair. "We've had fans coming here for over an hour trying to find out about Criss. Although we really know as little as the rest of the world," she sighed.

"They won't tell you anything either huh?" Luna asked trying to lighten the mood but all of the members just shook their heads solemnly. Luna didn't feel like sitting around like these people so she asked them if they knew where JD was because he'd asked her to come.

"Yeah," the same woman responded. "I'm pretty sure he's in with Criss. They're in room 318, but you're not allowed in," she said, but Luna was already headed for the room. She approached the door, disappointed to see that there wasn't a window for her to peek through at Criss. She knocked and waited for an answer. The man who answered the door was the third man Luna had seen at the club so she assumed it was Criss's other brother.

"Costa?" she prompted. The man nodded and waited for her to continue.

"Uhm, I'm Luna. JD asked me to come here," she said waiting for some sort of recognition. Costa nodded and opened the door, then poked his head out to ensure that no angry nurses were coming their way. JD had been sitting in a chair across from the bed next to an older woman with very similar features.

"Luna you came!" JD exclaimed scooping an unsuspecting Luna in to an awkward hug. Over his shoulder, Luna could see the woman giving her a once over before standing. JD pulled back and then turned to the woman. "Luna this is our mom Dimitra," he introduced. Luna smiled and shook the woman's hand.

"So you're the woman that my Criss has been spending all his time with?" Dimitra asked looking over Luna once more. Dimitra then smiled and continued. "Well, he has good taste." Luna relaxed and smiled gratefully but her smile quickly vanished when she finally caught sight of Criss laying unconsciously in the hospital bed. The entire right side of his body was covered in bruises, (or at least what she could see outside of the hospital gown). Luna walked over and let her eyes gingerly pass over Criss's body. His shoulder and neck were both wrapped in a number of materials which she assumed were supposed to keep them from moving. She tried to ask what was wrong, but her voice caught in her throat and wouldn't come out. Thankfully JD seemed to have read her mind.

"The doctors said that he broke his shoulder blade which is a rare break, but possible to recover from. Unfortunately he also fractured his neck, which is a really dangerous thing because there's a possibility of paralysis. By now, they're pretty sure he'll be fine, but it definitely is something to keep an eye on. He's on really high dosages of pain killers right now, so he probably won't be up and conscious for a few more hours," he said. Luna took a moment to let this information sink in. Criss broke his shoulder blade: could that restrict the movement in his right arm? He fractured his neck: what will he do if he's paralyzed? Luna's mind swum and she felt dizzy. Fortunately Costa came over to her and led her to a chair. He squatted down in front of her and looked in to her eyes.

"He'll be okay Luna," he said with an unexpected strength in his voice. "I know my brother, and even if he's not conscious, he's fighting back. Don't worry," he soothed and then went over to his brother and mom. Luna nodded numbly, and spaced out while staring at Criss. A voice from near the doorway brought her away from her thoughts.

"Hey Luna, would you mind keeping an eye on Criss for a bit?" JD asked. "We want to bring our mom home, and quite honestly we're pretty tired from today's events, so we'll probably catch a little sleep before we return, okay? If somebody asks you who you are just say that you're our cousin." Luna nodded without speaking and watched them leave. She leaned her head against the wall and tried to figure out what time it was. When she was at the school it had been about 4, and her drive had taken longer than expected at about 4 hours, and she figured she'd been at the hospital for about an hour so that would make it….9 o' clock. She sighed and leaned her head against the wall and shut her eyes eventually drifting off in to a dreamful sleep.

Her eyes popped open at the sound of a consistent buzzing. She looked up and saw that Criss's heart monitor had flat-lined so she slammed open the door and screamed for help. Two doctors ran in to the room shoving something in Criss throat and tearing of the gown.

CLEAR… Nothing. CLEAR…Still no response. CLEAR…Not a thing changed.

"Call it," one of the doctors ordered. The other looked at his watch, and replied.

"Time of death 9:53." Luna sobbed and threw herself on Criss's body.

"He can't be dead!" she shouted at the doctors trying to remove her. "He can't be dead! I never got to tell him that I love him!" she screamed, and was then pulled out of the room by force.

Luna gasped as she straightened up with a start. He eyes dashed over to Criss's heart monitor only to see that it was beeping at a constant rate. She breathed a deep sigh of relief and put her head in her hands to calm herself down.

"Well, look who finally woke up," a weak voice whispered from the bed. Luna's eyes shot open once again to see a fragile smile placed on Criss's face. Luna laughed and felt tears escaping from her eyes at the same time. She rushed to Criss's side and gently stroked back his hair from his face. Criss closed his eyes and smiled at the caring touch. He looked up to see Luna with tears still falling silently from her face. "Why are you crying?" he asked her.

Luna tried to smile. "You just scared me, is all. I'm glad to see you're awake. When JD called me to tell me you were hurt I thought I'd have a heart attack right there on the stage. Fortunately, I managed to get here before any freak outs happened," she said. Criss raised his left hand and tenderly stroked Luna's cheek. She smiled and leaned in to the warm touch. She took his hand in hers and leaned in to kiss him. Criss's lips smiled against her own causing her to pull back laughing.

"What?" she asked.

"I was just thinking that maybe I should hurt myself more often," he jested. Luna pinched his finger playfully.

"You'd better not mister!" she ordered and then leaned in once more. Unfortunately the door then swung open by a nurse coming place water by Criss's bed. The nurse looked up and then scoffed in surprise. Luna turned flushed and accidentally bumped Criss's cast causing him to hiss.

"Excuse me," the nurse said. "But who are you?"

Luna remembered what JD told her to do. "Uh… I'm his cousin!" she said and then realized how very creepy that was under the circumstances. The nurse raised her eyes but set down the water and left, shutting the door behind her. Luna looked over at Criss who let out a stifled laugh. Luna glared at him. "What was I supposed to say?" she asked. Criss just shook his head and then looked thoughtful for a second before remembering what he wanted to say.

"What were you dreaming about?" he asked Luna. She looked at him surprised as she walked back over to his side.

"How did you know I was dreaming?" she questioned looking confused.

Criss smiled. "Well you were breathing heavily and your head kept moving. Oh yeah, and you kept shouting 'Criss'," he laughed. Luna laughed too realizing what he might have thought.

"Actually it was a terrible dream," she said while noticing out of the corner of her eye that Criss looked hurt. "I dreamt that you died," she said and noticed his emotion changed to sympathy.

"Aw, Luna, that's terrible. But I told you I'd be okay, and I couldn't let you down," he smiled. Luna returned it.

"I know, but that wasn't even what made it so bad. The entire time, I felt this nagging regret, because there's something I really wanted to tell you," she said. Criss nodded.

"What was it?"

Luna looked straight in to Criss's eyes and whispered: "I love you Criss." She waited for him to seem surprised or resentful or something, but he just smiled and stared right back at her.

"I love you too Luna," he replied. Luna felt relief and happiness flood through her body and she leaned to kiss him once more.
