Millie's p.o.v

"C'mon Mills! You need to go home for a little while!" Chloe said, trying to drag me out of the hospital. I get her point though. I'd been at the hospital for about 3 days now and even though my parents had come to check on me many times, I just couldn't leave.

"But, what if he wakes up when I'm not here, or what if the last time I'll ever see him is right before I leave?" I whined, tears already coming to my eyes. This whole thing had literally driven me mad and even though Chloe was family, I at least wanted to stay in the waiting room for now. 

"No. You need to go home and take a shower, change, and eat something. Your parents are starting to get really worried about you Millie and if you don't go home at least for a little bit soon, then they're going to have to drag you out," Chloe said, pulling harder on my arm. 

Even though I was still reluctant, I let Chloe pull me away from the hospital doors. She did have a point. To be honest the last time I had eaten something was yesterday and even then it was only a bag of chips. 

So, I stepped into the car.

I stared out the window, just thinking about stuff on the way home. Was Noah going to be ok? Where were Sadie, Gaten, and Caleb? What about Finn? All of the unanswered questions rushed through my head begging for answers that were no where in sight. 

"Millie, sweetheart, I'm going to go to McDonalds, is there anything you want?" My mom asked.

"I'll take a water and some fries please," I responded.

As much as my stomach was begging me not to eat anything, I knew that I had to. If I didn't ingest some sort of food by the time I went back to the hospital then Chloe would probably kill me. 

After about five minutes of waiting the food finally came. It almost made me puke to smell the French fries, but non-the-less I took a small bite, trying to focus on the saltiness rather than the thoughts of my friend who was in a coma.

Sadie's p.o.v

I clicked the call button next to Millie's name on my phone. Finn had told me what happened and I was not happy with either one of them. She had completely exploded on him and that just wasn't ok. 

Yeah, her crush may be in the hospital but why couldn't she think rationally while talking to Finn? He was only trying to apologize for his actions earlier in the day! Millie didn't have to go explode on him like that! 

"Hello?" Millie answered. Causing me to start to rethink my anger. She sounded so sad and broken right now. And seeing your best friend like that really hurts. 

"Hey, listen, I just wanted to say that I'm sorry. I know that all of this must be really hard for you right now, with all of the break-up stuff and with Noah in the hospital too. But I do want you to apologize to Finn. He may have been very protective and angry but he still thought that you were his girlfriend when Noah got hit. So I think that if you could try to see from his standing point then it would be really good and I think that you guys could make up to some extent," I paused so she could have a second to process what I was saying," Also Millie I'm sorry too. You wouldn't really be in this mess if it weren't for me. I told you that it was a good idea to pretty much lead Finn on and I think that it would have been better if I would have told you to break it off with him right after it started. But I'm really really really sorry and I hope that you can accept me as your friend in the future, and I'll try as hard as I can to be better," I finished, waiting for an answer. Which seemed to take forever because almost a full 2 minutes later Millie finally responded. 

"I'm sorry too. I don't think you should blame yourself for any of this and I will defiantly apologize to Finn later because I never really thought of it in that way. He saw me as someone who liked him in a romantic way and I played with his feelings,"

"I'm glad that you understand Mills,"

"Yeah me too,"

After we paused for a little bit longer, Millie and I started to talk. At first it was more of a 'how are you?' 'interesting, how are you?' type of conversation but then we just started to talk about random things. About all the happy and sad things in life. About everything. Which was good because it seemed to lighten the mood and Millie just seemed happier in general. Like a huge weight had been lifted off her shoulders and she was finally able to breath again.

"Well Sadie, I'm going to go because I have to take a shower and get back to the hospital but talk to you later," She said, finishing off the conversation.

"Sounds good Mills. Bye," I responded before hanging up the phone. 

I giggled in delight despite the sad situation. I had just gotten an amazing friend back. It wasn't easy of course because apologies are pretty difficult, but I did do it! There's always some light in the darkness I guess but sometimes it's harder to find them than you might think.
