Where is he? I think, where are you Dan? It's been seven hours since he left, and Dan would never stay out until this time without telling me first. I know he's probably just drunk or something, but I still can't help being worried.
The phone starts to ring, and I jump out of my spiral of depression to answer it.
"Hi," I say.
"Hello" says a friendly female voice on the other end.
"Who is this?"
"This is emergency services, is this the residence of Dan Howell."
What have you done now Dan? God, I hope he isn't hurt.
"Yes, this is Dan's flat, and I'm his friend, Phil. Is something wrong?"
"I'm sorry," he lady says "I'm not allowed to give out details over phone, but would you mind coming down to the hospital, I'm afraid Dan's in a critical condition."
I almost stopped breathing for a second. What if he's paralysed? What if he's going to die?
"I'll be right there."
****************
"He was in a car crash near central London," the nurse tells me as she guides me to Dan's ward. "The taxi driver and the girl he was with are both dead. It seems your friend was lucky."
"Hmm," is all I say. I'm still pretty scared. If he dies...
"This is it," the nurse says, stopping outside a white door. "You can go in now, but his face is pretty messed up so just be careful."
I thank her, take a deep breath and walk into Dan's room. She wasn't joking, he looks awful. He sleeping, or passed out, I can't tell. His skin in chalky and he's hooked up to loads of machines that are monitoring his heartbeat and brain activity. I hate seeing him like this, so vulnerable. He can't die like this, I think, he would hate to be remembered as some guy who got killed in a road accident.
I go to sit next to him, on his white bedsheets. Everything's so white. It should be black, I laugh to myself. Black like Dan's heart. I find myself laughing aloud at that one. I think he would laugh too if he could here me.
"I'm sorry Dan," I whisper, "this Shouldn't have happened. I promise you won't die though, you'll be ok."
I touch his hand, and it's cold . I squeeze it, like I'm reassuring him that's everything'll be Ok.
And then there's a long beep, and I jump up. It's the heart monitor, Dan's heart is stopping. He's dying.
