Evan POV:

I backed away from the door.
Nicole was replaced? I stopped playing games with her... Tyler stopped coming over. He started to play games with me. He started a YouTube channel when I did.
Mom and Dad died.
Nicole was alone.
Her own brother left her.
For YouTube.
For her previous best friend.
The friend she was in love with.
Who was in love with someone else.
Someone else she was close to.
Delirious stood up.
"Evan? Is everything okay?" He pulled on my shoulder.
Cartoonz looked at me.
Craig turned.
"I'm such a horrible brother." I said.
"Vanoss... Evan.. You're an amazing brother. She loves you. She absolutely adores you. You would never hurt her." Delirious said.
"Would a good brother take away his sister's best friend? Would a good brother take away the only two people she has? When she's going through depression. And she has no one to turn to. And I wasn't even there for her. She was all alone." I said.
Cartoonz spoke up.
"People make mistakes, Evan. We're not all perfect. You'd never leave Niki alone on purpose. You were just as depressed as she was."
"Do you even know what's going on?" I asked him.
He nodded. "She told me everything. She told me about him. How she felt, happy, sad, and mad. I wasn't mad at her. I experienced it, too. And Evan," he said.
I looked at him.
I felt like crying.
All these years, Nicole has been alone, and it was my fault.
"She loves you. She knows it's nobody's fault. She just blames it on him because she's hurt. And she misses him. She wishes she didn't feel what she feels for him." he said.

Cartoonz POV:

Of course I wasn't too happy about the fact that Nicole was in love with Tyler.
But that doesn't mean she doesn't love me.
We're dating. I wasn't mad at Tyler; he didn't do anything.
Evan looked at me.
His eyes looked watery.
"Cartoonz?" he asked.
"Yeah?" I asked.
I had started to have a sharp pain in my ribs where they were healing.
"Thank you." he smiled.
"For what?" I asked.
"You took care of my sister. You risked your life for her. You broke your bones to make sure she was okay. You knew it was risky, but you didn't care. You're there for her. You have my respect." Evan smiled.
From the corner of the room, I saw Delirious' sister and Moo lock hands.
Jonathan looked over towards them.
He looked more lenient.
Happier.
"It's no problem, Evan. I love her, too." I told him.

Nicole POV:

I slid down against the wall after hearing the elevator beep, signaling that Tyler was gone.
What I had left of a rotten, dying heart was not healed.
I figured it would be.
I thought I would be happy.
But now I don't have anything at all.
A giant hole in my chest.
Tearing me apart.
I put my head in my lap.
Hot tears poured down my cheeks.
The door to the room opened.
"Niki Bear." Evan said.
I didn't respond.
"Awwweeeee, Nicole." Evan sat beside me and pulled me to him. Macie ran to us.
He put my head on his chest.
"Shh..." he rocked me.
I felt Delirious sit down beside us.
"Delirious?" I asked.
"Yes?" He asked.
He pulled my hand into his.
I looked up from Evan's chest.
"Do you remember how you revealed your face? A little while ago. On the video." I said.
"Of course. What about it?" he asked.
"Well, you showed people the real you. You took off your mask and you stopped hiding because you were scared of people judging you or pain. How did you feel?" I asked.
Evan tried to shush me, and pulled me closer to were I could feel his steady heartbeat, but Delirious shook his head and said it was okay.
"Well, when I didn't show my face, I felt a lot of anxiety. I was scared people would not like me. But afterwards, I didn't care what people thought. I was happy. I wasn't so mysterious and I wasn't so anxious. I knew people still loved me regardless of what I looked like." he said.
"Wow." I nodded.
Evan pulled my hair from my eyes.
"Where's Tyler?" MiniLadd rushed to us from the hospital room.
"He left." I said.

Vanoss POV:

"Where did he say he was going?" Craig asked my little sister, curled up in my lap.
"He didn't tell me." She said.
"What did you do to him?" Craig said.
"I didn't do anything." Niki replied.
"How am I supposed to find him?" Mini asked.
"I don't know! Why do you care?" Nicole asked.
Delirious threw a look at Mini.
"Because he's my fucking boyfriend." Craig yelled.
Nicole stopped breathing for a second.
She sat up.
"What??"
"Tell me." Craig said.
"I don't know!" she said.
"This is not the time." I warned Craig.
"Whatever." Mini said.
Nicole looked sad.
"Tell me where Tyler is." Craig said.
"I said I don't know!!" Nicole said.
"Just because you're worried about him doesn't mean he's worried about you. Just because you're jealous..." Mini said.
Nicole started crying.
"That doesn't mean you have a right to treat him horribly. Just because he doesn't love you..." he continued.
She sobbed.
"Get the fuck out of here." I said.
Delirious stood up.
"Let me finish." Mini was the maddest I've ever seen.
"You've done enough. Nicole doesn't deserve this. Get the hell out of here. Go find Tyler. " Delirious said.
Skylar and Brian stepped out along with Chrissy and Scotty.
"I'm not leaving." Mini said.
"LEAVE." Jonathan said.
Mini started getting close to Jonathan.
Chrissy took Nicole from me and pulled her into the hospital room.
She kept the door open.
Scotty followed.
Marcel came out.
I stood up.
"Go." I told Mini.
"This is ridiculous. You're going against your own friends for some stupid obsession your sister has over my boyfriend!" Craig said.
"She's been in his life longer than you have." I said.
"So..? He'll never love her. He's mine." he said.
"JUST LEAVE!!" Delirious yelled.
He's so protective over her already.
"Fine." Craig walked down the hallway to the elevator.

Craig POV:

I took the elevator and ran out of the hospital.
Where the hell is Tyler?
I was already worried sick about him.
What had Nicole said to him for him to leave?
What did she do?
I grabbed my phone.
I dialed his number.
Ring, Ring.
"This is Tyler here, sorry I couldn't get to the phone. Uh... Leave a voice message and I'll get back to you later. Goodbye."
Beep.
He didn't answer. I know he has his phone with him.
I don't have the car.
I wouldn't take the RV.
What am I supposed to do?
I didn't want to go back into the hospital.
I had yelled at Nicole.
I'd said horrible things.
Yeah, of course I didn't mean to, but I was just worried about Tyler.
Where is he?
