Forever Grateful;
One-Shot
Nick was sitting down on the couch him and his brothers shared all their life. He was playing around with his long brown curly hair. All he has been doing is watching the second hand keep moving slowy on the clock. See the little things in life, he never thought he would look at. The outside, he heard the birds cherping, and watched them clamly. It's not like he had anything else better to do. He also noticed how the leaves on tress, sway back and forth. He was just thinking about the little things in life people take for granted. I mean, what would you do if you didn't have a house? A tv ? A computer? A family ? I mean, while Nick was just there sitting, he relized how many things in life, are something you really need. He see's people all the time, being rude to there parents and everything like that. What if you didn't have parents? How would you feel then ? Things like that have just been going through his mine, and it just couldn't seem to get it out. Nick felt quzey all of a sudden. As if the world was moving in a up and down motion, really fast, he was spinning, his mind, and he didn't no how to control it. To him, it felt as he was going to die at any moment, when suddlen, he fell onto the ground. "BOOM!"
Joe heard from the Jonas house basement. He was breathing heavly, while he was striding to get up those 20 stair steps. "What happened, what's wrong?!?!?!" Joe screamed when he finally got up the stairs. He was carrying a Pepsi can, and when he saw his little brother Nick on the floor, it fell right out of his hands. Tears started falling from Joe's eyes, and it just couldn't seem to stop. No one was home besides him and Nick. So while Joe was dailing Kevin's phone number, his hand was so shakey, he dropped the phone about 7 times before he finally could dial the right number complety. "Kevin!!!!!! Something is wrong with Nick. He fainted he is on the floor. KEVIN I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO ! Come home quick !" Joe said with such fright. "I will be home in 5 minutes!" Then soon after that, Joe heard the dial tone. Kevin was just at the gas station, but by the time he gets back, Joe prays that it won't be to late for Nick. "Dam.n, I wish I could drive." Joe said upset and still crying with tears. Joe soon heard the slam of a car door and knew it was Kevin. Kevin came out, opening the door as fast as he can. "HURRY UP JOE LET'S GO TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM." Kevin said. Joe took Nick's arms and Kevin took his legs. Then they were off to the hospital.
While the boys were in the car, right when the car got started, Kevin and Joe both did the Sign Of The Cross, to have a safe car ride. Kevin heard Joe making whispering noises, and didn't know if he was talking to himself, or to him. So Kevin watched Joe for a few seconds, and heard Joe praying. Joe ended the prayer of course with the Sign Of The Cross. They finally arrived at the hospital, then with in a few mintues, Kevin and Joe started balling their eyes out when they saw the nurse's fanticly put Nick onto a strecher. Joe went into the waiting room and called his parents. They were with Frankie at the mall, and rushed in when they heard the news. Mr & Mrs. Jonas' were frantcly waiting to see what was wrong with Nick. The Jonas family was sitting in the waiting room, all praying and hoping to God, what was happening to Nick was not to serious. Finally, Mr.Jonas said the last words of the prayer, "My Lord Jesus Christ, you are the reason that I am here. You are also the reason why my son Nick is here, please keep him safe, help him recover, and please do whatever you can, whatever your plan is for him, I will thank you for it. Please Lord, keep Nicholas in good health. Amen." A doctor came out and was talking to Mr & Mrs. Jonas. Mrs. Jonas just couldn't stop crying. And Kevin and Joe were scared for that. They hoped that Nick was okay. Soon after the doctors were done talking, the parents slowly apporched Joe, Kevin and Frankie. "Your brother is going to be okay, they hope. His blood sugar was so high. If it was any higher than what it was today, Nick could have died. They have to keep Nick her for a week or longer." They just said that, then walked right away into Nick's room with Frankie. "Can we go see him?" Joe and Kevin asked. "You can after us." Mr. Jonas said. Mrs. Jonas came out of the room with a sad face. "Boys, there is something wrong with your brother. He just can't seem to stay postive. Please, their is something wrong with him. He has never been so, how should I say.... un-postiive. Please Joe & Kevin, go help your brother. Cheer him up." Joe and Kevin walked into the room slowly. Nick had pale pale skin. His eyes didn't have the glow he usally did, he looked depressed. Nick loooked half asleep, but they knew he was awake. Joe started singing. The words came out of his mouth, " Got the news today, but they said I had to stay, a little bit longer, and I'll be fine. Kevin actually sang along with him. When I thought it all been done, when I thought it all been said. A little bit longer, and I'll be fine. Nick's eyes shot wide open. But you don't know what you got, til' its gone. And you don't know what it's like to feel so low. And everytime you smile or laugh you glow. You don't even know, know, know. You don't even know. Joe and Kevin watched Nick closly, and noticed that tears were coming out of his eyes. Then Nick started singing. "All this time moves by. Still no reason why. A little bit longer. And I'll be fine. All three; Waitin' on a cure. But none of them are sure. A little bit longer. And I'll be fine." The doctors came in, hearing the words to the song, and saw the tears from Nick come out of him. The emotion of all the boys hit the doctors hard, and even the doctors and nurses heard the beautiful Jonas boys voice's from across the hall and came in quick. Soon enough, almost the whole floor was in the room ! Mrs. Jonas and Mr. Jonas were both crying, but also giving Kevin and Joe a "thank you so much" look. After everyone left, Nick was their with himself or a moment. And he took the time to gather all the things that happened today. He was thinking about what he was thinking about earlier, how life is to short, so take the time, and appericate. Soon, Nick was singing that song. He thought, life comes at you fast. Take the time to thank God, and be appericative with what you have. Then Nick said the words, "Forever Grateful." As if he was speaking to God in thanks.
