they had just finished up at the beach, and they were walking back to the car. ryan got into the passenger's seat, and brendon got into the driver's seat.

"we're not quite done yet, ross," brendon told the other boy next to him as he started up the pink truck again.

"what're we doing, urie?"

brendon shrugged, and respond a, "just driving around, babe."

brendon was right, and ryan never knew how much he loved to just ride to random places before he'd done it with brendon. ryan plucked up some courage, and while brendon was driving, he gave the boy a small kiss on his cheek. brendon's eyes went wide as he gripped the steering wheel tighter.

brendon kissed ryan back on the cheek, head still trained on the road. no cars were on the road in front, behind, or next to him, so he pulled over. he kissed ryan passionately on the lips and smiled into the kiss when ryan kissed back. ryan unbuckled himself from the seatbelt still kissing brendon, and somehow managed to get driver's seat to straddle brendon. their lips were fighting for dominance, and brendon won and his tongue entered ryan mouth.

brendon bit ryan's lower lip, and the said boy let out an airy moan. "y'know, babe i actually wanted to take you somewhere right now," brendon breathed into the kiss.

ryan responded, still kissing brendon, "shut up and keep kissing me." brendon was going to tell ryan okay, but since he'd just been told to be quiet, he just smiled, letting ryan know he understood.

-

at least ten minutes later of making out, ryan had crawled back to his passenger's seat. "wow," he breathed out, also laughing.

"wow is right," brendon agreed, laughing also.

after their fit of laughter, brendon regained his composure to drive ryan around until he had to let him go. as much as brendon wanted to keep ryan to himself, believe it or not, he loved him, so he had to let him go.

-

brendon drove on the express way because he felt it was actually calming at nighttime, and after driving on the express way, they were back on a deserted road.

or so they thought.

as brendon was about to turn off the street, a car came crashing at them, and it all happened so fast, but for ryan, it was all in slow-motion. the airbag inflating, the pain in his side, head, legs, everywhere, brendon's horrifying scream, and the blacking out. it was torture.

brendon exited the pink truck, only just to rush to ryan's side of the truck to hurry up to get him out of the smoking place. it was a struggle, as another car was was in the way.

the driver of the car who had just gotten out, and kept apologizing frantically. brendon tried to hold himself back from punching him because from the way he was walking, and slurring his words, he knew he was drunk.

"just give me your phone and the keys to your car, so i can take my boyfriend to the hospital," brendon muttered through gritted teeth though ryan wasn't actually his confirmed boyfriend yet.

the guy gave him the requested items, and he called spencer, and told him what happened, and ordered him to call ryan's parents.

brendon ran to the car, unlocked it, and put ryan in the passenger's seat, hoping things could only get better from here.

-

after the seemingly hour long drive, they made it to the hospital. brendon saw the face of a worried spencer, jon, and ryan's parents. they rushed to him frantically. "what happened?" ryan's mom, danielle asked.

"drunk driver," brendon muttered. ryan's mom started to sob, but her husband hugged her, crying too.

they had him rush to the emergency room, and they had to wait outside.

-

a few hours later, a doctor came outside.

"people here for ryan ross?"

brendon stood up quickly along with everyone else.

the doctor said only two people at a time could go in for now, so obviously ryan's parents went in.

-

ryan's parents came out and brendon rushed into ryan's room. he saw him hooked an iv, and a breathing mask. he didn't know what any of this stuff was, but he knew it wasn't good.

"ryan?" brendon squeaked out. "ry? c'mon, don't do this to me. i had so many things to tell you.like about how i love you, and how i wanted to be your boyfriend, how i wanted to go on double dates with spencer and jon. please be okay, ry." that was when brendon broke down. he sat on the chair next to the bed because his legs were going weak, and if he stood any longer, he would collapse onto the floor. he sobbed wishing ryan was okay. he checked the time on his watch, seeing it was 11:11 pm. his wish was obviously for ryan to be okay. more than okay actually. fantastic.

he heard a shuffle, and looked over to the door, thinking maybe somebody had came in, but he saw out of the corner of his eye, ryan moved. the said boy's eyes slowly opened, and ryan squinted as if the light was too bright, and blinding him.

"mr. and mrs. ross!" brendon called out. "doctor! he woke up!" brendon smiled.

knowing that even though ryan wasn't fantastic now, things would be fucking fantastic in the end, he crushed his lips to ryan, never daring to let go.

------

other ending.

even though it had just happened, the crash of the car, brendon knew that ryan was gone. there was no sound of breath as long as brendon tried to listen, ears strained.

the last words ryan had repeated to him played over and over again in his head.

that was the best ride of my life

sadly, it was also his last.
