Three

 

"Oh, Riley! Thank God you're awake!" Kit yells as he runs into my hospital room, "Are you feeling better?" I nod, trying remember exactly what happened. My eyes grow wide as memories rush back into my mind. I had had a heart attack and passed out...at a Bastille concert.

Some fans I met at the concert and Dean rush into the room, and run to my side, "Someone is here to see you, Ri Ri." Dean says, smiling. I look at him, confused, until my eyes travel to the doorway.

A scream escapes my lips as four men walk into my room. Dan, Woody, Will, and Kyle. I cover my mouth, years running down my face.

"They took time off of their tour to visit you, Riley." Kit tells me, a huge smile on his face.

"D-Dan.!" I shout in excitement. A smile grows in his face as he walks over to my bedside, everyone else backing away.

"Hi, Riley." He says, taking my hand into his. He wipes the tears off my cheeks. I jump Ito his arms, crying more.

"Riley Snow, right?" A nurse asks as she walks into my room.

I nod, "Yup. That's me."

The nurse grins, "Well, I have some good news! You are free to go today. Just be careful. Also, there is someone in the lobby that will take you home."

"Thank you." I walk past her to get my clothes at the front desk. As I change back into my concert outfit, I can't stop thinking about how Bastille had visited me the other day.

I walk out of the bathroom and down to the lobby. I suddenly get confused as I don't see anyone I know in the lobby. Actually, no one is in the lobby. I sit on a chair by a window wondering who and when someone was picking me up.

"Riley?" I look up seeing Dan standing in front of me.

"Y-Yes..." I nervously answer, standing up and fixating my clothes, tucking a strand of my short hair behind my ear.

"Uhm," He runs a hand through his hair, looking down, "Kit instructed me to pick you up. Well, if that's okay with you, I guess."

I giggle slightly, departing whether or not to touch him, "Ya! That's fine with me."

He chuckle, "Okay, good. My car is parked down the road."

I follow him out, trying my best not to flip my lid.
