Part 3
Brian looked horrible. He was hooked up to several different
machines. His face was cut and bruised,
he had bandages covering his arms.
"Oh God," was all Nick could
say.
Kevin stood up and pulled Nick into a
hug. Still crying, Nick took a seat to
the right of Brian.
"Is...is he going to be
okay?"
Afraid to know Nick closed his eyes
listening for Kevin's reply.
"Nick...Brian's in a coma."
Kevin stated in between sobs.
AJ finished, aware that Kevin couldn't
handle it. "Nick they said he could
have brain damage when...if he wakes up."
Nick rested his head on Brian's bed
and sobbed uncontrollably.
Simultaneously Howie and AJ rushed to console Nick.
"This is all my fault," Nick
moaned.
"What?" Howie questioned
"how could this be you fault?"
"I yelled at him!"
"I'm the whole reason he
left."
"The whole reason he got in a
wreck"
"Nick, Nick no Brian was run off
the road by some kid."
"How could it be your
fault?"
"Who cares about some stupid
fight the two of you had." Kevin
reassurred, "He knows you didn't mean it."
"Kev...no you don't
understand!"
"I wished...Oh God..."
"Relax, it's okay Nick, it's
okay."
"Guys can I...um have a few
minutes alone with Bri..."
"Nick don't do this to
yourself!"
"Please"
The 3 exchanged glances.
"Alright Nick but just a few
minutes."
As they left the room Nick turned his
attention back to Brian. "Brian,
Rok I'm so, so sorry. All of those mean
things I said...I didn't mean...and if you come back to us I swear I'll make it
up to you Bri, your my best friend and I couldn't stand to lose you. You mean so much to so many people. I mean your parents, Hal, Leigh, millions of
fans, and us Brian. To me. I love you Brian please, please don't
die!"
Breaking down, Nick held Brian's hand
tight and silently prayed. "God
please don't take him, he's to young. He has so much to live for. Please,
please don't take him away from us. We love him so much."
Before he could finish a loud whining sound drew his attention up to a moniter.
Before he could even comprehend what
was happening, the room was flooded with doctors and nurses.
A nurse escorted Nick out as he met
with Kevin, Howie, and AJ. They watched
through the windows as the doctors attempted at bringing Brian back to
life. Each one pleading he would make
it.
"No, no this can't be
happening," Nick screamed.
"Nick, Nick"
He awoke with a jerk.
"AJ wh...where am I?"
"Uh...your hotel room."
"Brian, oh God where is he?"
"Is he ok?"
"Relax Nick it was just a
nightmare. We are gonna be late
c'mon. We have 20 minutes, so get
ready."
"I'll see you there Jay, I need
to talk to Brian."
Racing through the arena Nick found
Brian in their meeting room. He was sitting in a chair, his head resting on the
table. Nick sat down and wrapped his arm around Brian. "Brian I'm sorry, I
didn't mean any of it, I swear."
Brian lifed his head up. "You were right, Nick I'm sorry"
"No Brian I was wrong please
forgive me."
"Nick, you were right, really I
thought about it and..."
Nick cut him off. "No Brian
please just forgive me...I had this dream and..."
"Nick, Nick it's okay,"
Brian smiled, "I forgive you."
Nick pulled him into a hug. "I
didn't mean to hurt you Bri...honestly."
Nick learned a valuable lesson that
day, Be careful of what you wish for, it just might come true.
