((Riley's POV))
I sat up in my bed, pouting,
"What do you mean something happened to Dakota? Is she okay?"
"It's hard to explain..."
"Well, you're smart, find a way."
"Well... while Dakota was driving home earlier tonight, she was talking on the phone with me. We were talking about some important family matters when I heard her scream and a loud crash sounded. The line went dead after that. I tried calling her back over and over again until I got a call from her father. Dakota's in the hospital due to some major wounds inflicted upon her during a car crash." My eyes widened,
"Really...? Will she be alright?"
"Yes, she'll be fine. But it's pretty traumatizing. I suggest you come here, to the hospital. Everyone else is here."
"Y-yeah, I'll be right there." I hung up and got out of my bed. I took off my pajamas and put on some actual clothes, I can't believe that Dakota of all people would get in a car crash... I pulled on some shoes and grabbed my car keys before bounding down the halls and down the multiple staircases. Once I finally reached my car, I hopped in and drove away, to the hospital.
((Dakota's POV))
I opened my eyes to see the blaring, white lights on the ceiling. I groaned and tried to raise my arm to block the stupid light, but it hurt too much to move,
"Hey, she's awake." I heard Mori say. I closed my eyes tightly and groaned again. I felt someone gently take my hand,
"My princess? My darling? Are you okay? You'll be fine now... daddy's here..." I tilted my head to the side with difficulty and saw Tamaki there. I smiled at him,
"Hey Tamaki. What happened? Why am I so sore?" my voice sounded so quiet and dry. It hurt to talk.
"You were in a car crash, and you're pretty banged up," Kaoru said, walking over to me and laying an orange rose on my bed. I sighed heavily,
"I guess that's what I deserve for talking on the phone while driving. Not to mention that I was ready to pass out..." I coughed and moaned loudly,
"Ow, fuck..." Tamaki and Kaoru helped me sit up properly. I looked around,
"Where's Hikaru?" Kaoru nudged his head towards the door,
"Interrogating the doctors. He's pretty freaked out. He turned white when he saw you." I looked around at myself,
"So, what exactly is going on here?" I said. Kyouya stepped forward,
"One broken arm, two broken legs, minor head injury, a couple broken ribs, a punctured lung..." he sighed,
"As injured as you are, the doctors say that you'll be fine, within an extended amount of time, of course." I nodded,
"That's good to hear." The door opened and Hikaru stepped inside, looking away with his hands in his pockets. I smiled,
"Hikaru?" he looked up and gasped before walking over to me,
"Dakota? Are you okay?"
"I'm really sore... but I'll manage." Hikaru bent down and kissed my forehead,
"God, I was so worried... I was convinced that you'd be paralyzed or something..." I shook my head,
"Nope. I'll be fine. As soon as all this... hurting stuff heals up and stops hurting me all hardcorely, I'll be your fully functional girlfriend again. So if you ditch me for some whore, I'll punch you in the face." I said teasingly. Hikaru smirked a bit, his eyes glossing over with a bit of tears,
"God, you know I love you... right?"
"No, I thought we were just best friends." I said sarcastically. Hikaru moved over a bit and kissed the tip of my nose. Kyouya walked over to me, holding his notebook,
"Danyka, I feel as if this is partially my fault... I mean, I called you while you were driving and distracted you..."
"Don't feel guilty, Kyouya. This could've happened to me any day." I assured him. I sighed heavily,
"Now, if we can stop having a chick flick moment, can one of you get me some jell-o or something? I really want jell-o." Kaoru got up and left the room to get me some jell-o. Hikaru kissed my lips lightly,
"Can I share that jell-o with you?"
"Only if you're not fat and don't take humungous bites." The door to the hospital room opened and Riley stepped in. She grinned,
"Hey Dakota."
"Hey Riley."
"Why are you all dead-i-fied and shit?"
"Because I'm stupid."
"That explains a lot." She walked over to me and looked a the roses all over my hospital bed,
"Okay, Immuna guess who the roses are from..." she picked up a light green rose,
"Tamaki," she picked up a navy blue rose,
"Mori," she picked up a pink rose,
"Honey," she picked up a purple rose,
"Kyouya," she picked up an orange rose,
"Kaoru," she looked at Hikaru,
"And none from Hikaru? The man that loves her so much?" she gasped dramatically. Hikaru smiled and left the room before coming back with a boquet of light blue roses. He handed them to me,
"For you." Mori walked over to Riley and wrapped his arms around her waist from behind, resting his chin ontop of her head,
"Hope you feel better, Dakota. I wish I could stay longer, but Mitsukuni and I need to have a good sleep tonight. Family stuff tomorrow." He waved to me and kissed Riley's cheek before grabbing sleepy Honey and leaving. Tamaki stood up and lent over, kissing my forehead,
"I wish I could stay longer as well, my darling daughter, but I alas, I cannot. Come, Kyouya. We have some educational business to attend to." Kyouya looked at me and left with Tamaki hesitantly. Kaoru came back in with my jell-o and handed it to me,
"It's strawberry flavoured." I smiled,
"Thanks Kaoru, you're a sweetie." I opened the plastic container that held the delicious, slimy food and took a spoon. I took some onto the spoon and brought it into my mouth before swallowing, giggling as it slipped down my throat. I got some more onto the spoon and held it in front of Hikaru's face. He ate it. Riley sighed and sat down in the chair Tamaki was previously sitting in,
"So... will you be okay without me? I'm really tired, and I wanna go home and cuddle with my bear." I nodded,
"I'll be okay. I have my bitches." Riley stood up and dug in her pockets before pulling something out and throwing it on my bed,
"Happy Birthday."
"It's not my birthday."
"I know, but it's a present anyway." I grabbed the small ring box and opened it to reveal a new lip ring. I smiled,
"Thanks Riley." Riley waved and left, yawning heavily. I turned to Hikaru,
"Wanna help your girlfriend put in a lip ring?" he shrugged and helped me take the stud out of my lip and insert the hoop. He twisted on the bead and sat back. I played with the hoop with my tongue,
"I like the hoops better than the studs." Kaoru sat on the edge of my bed before laying down next to me, sighing heavily. Hikaru got on the bed and laid on the other side of me. His arm draped lazily over my waist and Kaoru nuzzled into my shoulder blades. Both twins sighed and closed their eyes, falling asleep. I closed my eyes and fell asleep as well...
((Hikaru's POV))
I woke up a couple hours later and got off of Dakota's hospital bed. I took the empty container of jell-o off the table beside her bed and threw it away. I took out my phone and examined the time. It was 3:29 AM. I yawned and looked over at Kaoru, who was still sleeping. I called for one our limo drivers to come pick him up. I walked over to my slightly younger twin brother and nudged him until he woke up. His eyes fluttered open and he sat up,
"What's up, Hikaru?"
"I arranged for one of the limo drivers to come pick you up, you might wanna get ready." Kaoru blinked twice, rubbing his eyes,
"But what about you?" he questioned." I shook my head,
"I'm gonna stay here for a couple days, keep an eye on Dakota. Don't worry, I'll come home during the days and whatnot sometimes, but I'm gonna be sleeping here." Kaoru nodded,
"Okay, Hikaru." He got off of the hospital bed and got all his things. He hugged me and kissed Dakota's cheek before leaving. I sighed and walked around the hospital room for a while until I heard Dakota's broken voice,
"Hikaru...?" I turned around and saw her with her good hand over her chest. She whimpered and looked over at me, her eyes filled with tears,
"G-get a doctor..."
((An Hour Later))
Turns out Dakota's lung was only bothering her. The doctors gave her some pretty heavy pain-killers, so she was acting all high and stuff. It was pretty funny. I was watching her from my spot on my chair. I smiled,
"How're you feeling, Dakota?" she looked at me and giggled lightly,
"Dude, I'm spectacu... lacular..."
"Those drugs treatin' you nice?"
"Fuckin' rights they are." She looked at me and snickered,
"H-hey Hikaru?"
"What?"
"... You're pretty." She used her good hand to flick my nose. I nodded,
"Yes, I'm very pretty."
