Chapter title: Things You never want to hear

"But he hasn't woken up yet. This isn't that big of a problem now but he does have a concussion and if he doesn't wake up in the next 72 hours he could fall into a coma. As of right now we're monitoring him very closely and his lungs are weak especially the right one seeing as it was the one that was punctured and collapsed so we have him on a ventilator that is breathing for him. I know this is a lot to take in, so any questions?" The doctor finished and looked at the heart broken family.

"Can we see him?" Nick asked timidly

"He's in recovery right now, so only your parents, but once we move him to ICU you and your brother will be able to see him as well, which will be in about an hour, ok?" the doctor answered politely.

"Yes sir, thank you," Nick said with a little disappointment of not being able to see his brother.

"So Mr. and Mrs. Jonas right this and I'll show you where he is," The doctor said.

Kevin Sr. and Denise followed the doctor after giving the two boys sad smiles.

Nick just sat there while playing with the sling on his arm just thinking about how much they wanted to see Joe. Hear him laugh, sing, or tell a joke. They missed all the stupid stuff he does.

Kevin sat there wishing he hadn't just heard what he did hear. His BABY brother couldn't breathe on his own. He might slip into a COMA! Kevin was so deep in thought he didn't hear Nick and his parents calling his name an hour later.

Kevin's head pooped up when he felt a hand on his shoulder.

"Dad you scared me! What? Why aren't you guys with Joe??" Kevin asked panicky.

"They moved him out of recovery, so we came to get you and Nicholas to let you
know that you can come see him," His mother said and he brushed some curls out of his face.

Kevin breathed a sigh of relief and got up and followed his parents to his brother's hospital room.

Kevin was trying to prepare himself for when he saw his brother. He thought that he'd be afraid to touch Joe but when he saw his brother the tears started flowing and he practically ran to the bed. He sat in the chair closest to his brother and grabbed his hand with his sprained one and ran his good one through his brother's hair carefully because he knew his brother had a head injury and that it was bad just by looking at him.

Joe looked horrible their was a giant tube down his throat forcing him to breathe, his left leg was in a cast and was hung up in a sling for elevation, there was gauzes wrapped around his head and you could see a blood stain in one spot, and there were thousands of other cuts and bruises on his face and hands.

Plus, that was only what you could see. Kevin knew Joe had rib injuries so figured his chest was probably wrapped.

At that moment Kevin knew that no matter what he was gonna be sitting in this very spot the second Joe's eyelids started to flutter open.

The whole Jonas family minus Frankie and Joe watched the mechanical rise and fall of Joe's chest, the heart monitor to the side of him, the drips coming from the multiple IV's, and all the other machines and wires Joe was hooked up to.

It may have looked horrible, but that was what was keeping one of the most important things in their lives alive.

Without them they wouldn't have Joe right now.

Silently they all prayed for Joe to make it through this.
