Nick broke away from Kevin still shaking and crying uncontrollably, "It's
him, IT'S HIM!!! BRIAN'S DEAD!" he yelled and everyone looked at him.
"Nick calm-" Kevin started, but was cut off.
"CALM DOWN?! YOU WANT ME TO CALM DOWN AND MY BEST FRIEND IS LAYING THERE!!!!
DEAD!!!Oh my........I can't be here," he yelled then ran out of the hospital
just wanting to get away from there.
"Oh man I can't believe this," A.J. said, "Kev, would you...."
"Yeah, I'll go after him," he said then followed Nick.
Howie ran his hand through his hair, "Man it doesn't even look like Brian."
"I know, I still don't see how Nick saw Brian on that table," A.J. said and
started to walk out of the room with Howie following his lead.
"I guess he just freaked out, he was already scared out of his mind just
thinking it was him, so maybe he just saw it."
"I hope Kevin finds him, there's no telling what he'll do......he thinks his
best friend is dead!"

"OK, sir just one more stitch and you'll be outta here!" the nurse said.
"Thanx, oh would you mind telling me how I got this again?" he said pointing
to the cut on his head.
"Well, I don't know exactly, but a witness said that she you in the path of
the car and when you jumped to get out of the way you collided with someone
else, knocking you both out and giving you that nasty gash there," she said
cleaning up.
"OK, do I have to sign anything before I leave or can I just go?"
"Um, just sign the book at the front desk and you can leave," she said before
she left the room.
He signed the book and left, the lady at the front desk said that they towed
his car to the parking lot of the hospital. But he couldn't find it.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Nick was walking around, he wasn't that far from the hospital considering all
the times he stopped and cried, he saw a car drive past him on the street.
"Oh God! Brian was killed by a.....car, maybe I should just step in front of
one, it wouldn't make a difference, wait! no get a hold of yourself Nick,
Brian wouldn't want this, he would want you to be strong," he told himself,
when he heard someone calling his name.
"NICK!!!, Nick wait up!" Kevin yelled catching up to him.
"Leave me alone Kevin i don't want to talk to anybody," Nick sniffled and
started to walk away when Kevin grabbed him forcing Nick to look him.
"Nick, listen to me!! That wasn't Brian you saw!"
"What are you talking about that was Bri-"
"No, you thought you saw him, but you probably only saw what you wanted to
see, you already thought it was him before she pulled the sheet down didn't
you?"
Nick noddedn then it hit him, "You mean Brian's not....."
"Yes, he's very much alive and well," Kevin said and let go of Nick.
"Oh thank God! Where is he?"
"Probably at the emergency room, that's where all the people in the accident
were, because someone identified Brian and said they saw him in the path of
the car, but he jumped out of the way and is probably just getting some
stitches."
"OK, lets go find him," Nick and Kevin went back to the hospital.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
The nurse looked at the sign-in sheet counting all the people that were in the emergency room for that day, when she got to the last name she thought it was strange, "John Doe? Hmmm.....that's weird, usually only amnesia patients sign under that name, oh well," she shrugged it off and put out a new sign-in sheet.
