Arriving at Universal was probably one of the highlights of my life. We had visited everything I wanted to see. I had gotten so many things Harry Potter related, more than I could count. Everything was perfect.

Then we came home.

It was a chilly November afternoon, and I was with Riele at Starbucks when I had gotten the call.

"And so I told her- I'm getting a call." I said, grabbing my phone to see who was calling. It was Jace.

"Hello?" I said, wondering why he was calling, when he was suposed to be auditioning for something. "Hello dear. It's Mrs.Norman." I heard the familiar friendly voice of Jace's mom. But she sounded quiet and sad, not happy and bright like she usually did.

"Hey Mrs.Norman! How are you?" I asked, mouthing Jace's mom to Riele. "I'm doing okay, I guess. I needed to talk to you." She said, her voice getting more miserable by the second.

"What about?" I asked, getting nervous. "Well, Jace was audtitioning for a role, as you know, and he was driving to fast, and his car got hit by another and the next thing we know, we got a call from the police saying Jace was put into a coma.." She trailed off, and I heard sniffling on the other end.

"A coma." I was lost for words. My baby, my sweet Jace, is in a coma? My mouth dropped wide, and I covered it with my hand, my eyes filling with tears.

"Where are you?" I asked, trying to keep my voice even. "I'm at the hospital downtown. Please come Stella. He would want you here." She said, her voice wavering. "I'm on my way." I hung up.

"What's wrong Stel?" Riele asked, gathering her things along with me. "Jace... He.. He's in a coma." I stuttered, not trying to keep the tears back any longer. "Oh my God! I'll come with you." I smiled gratefully at my best friend, and helped her into her jacket. We grabbed our drinks and phones, heading into the crowded streets of downtown L.A.

I shoved past people, avoiding their eyes. Some muttered apologies, others cursed at my rudeness. I wanted to tell them why I was acting how I was. My beloved is in a coma, you would be the same way.

I hurried down each street, looking for the small hospital.

We were waiting impatiently with strangers in an elevator, when it happened. The doors opened, and there were doctors running around frantic, Jace's mother screaming, Xander crying silently.

"Where is he?!" I yelled at the lady at the front desk. She looked at me fearfully, pointing to a door.

"Jace." I whispered in his ear as I hugged him tightly.

"Did we jinx ourselves on that plane? When I said 'what if that was us' and you said 'its not, and if it was, we'd have to deal with it'?" I whispered, my face buried in his shoulder.

"I can't believe this is happening. There has to be something?" I asked hopelessly. I looked up at the doctor. "We're trying everything we can." He said.

I shook my head, and cried, crawling into bed with him, falling asleep with him.
