Bentley:Cap thinks you’re bailing on us now that you’re coming home for real. I told him there was no way you’d do that to Jilly or Caroline, not after all that they’ve been through.
Bentley:I’m going to go full stalker and try to get ahold of your manager if you don’t let one of us know what the hell is going on.
Jilly + Bentley + Caroline + Cap
Jilly:Have any of you heard from Killian yet? I haven’t talked to him in well over 24 hours, and that is not normal for us. I’m trying not to freak the hell out, but I have one million shitty scenarios running through my mind.
Bentley:No. Still nothing. I left a message with his management team, trying to get someone to call me back.
Cap:If that fucker is ghosting us, I swear to god, I’ll kick his ass so bad that he’ll never ride again.
Caroline:He wouldn’t do that. Not after everything we’ve been through together.
Bentley:That’s what I told them.
Jilly:Oh my god.
Caroline:What?
Jilly:I googled him.
Bentley:Fuck.
Cap:I’m not googling that bastard. Someone tell me what the hell is going on.
Caroline:Bent, you go pick up Jilly. Cap, I’ll meet you at your place, and you can drive me.
Cap:What happened?
Bentley:He was hurt last night during his last run. He’s in a coma.
Cap:Holy shit.
Bentley:Jilly. Deep breaths. I’m on my way okay?
Caroline:I’m getting in the car. I’ll call her and talk to her until you get there.
Cap:Jilly. Don’t spiral. Killian isn’t Dicer. The universe isn’t that cruel.
Jilly:Of course it is.
Caroline:She’s not answering.
Bentley:I’m three minutes away.
Cap:Goddammit. I knew he’d break our hearts.
Caroline:He’s alive. He’s getting round-the-clock medical care. You spiraling alongside Jilly isn’t helping anyone.
Cap:Stop texting and driving. The last thing I need is someone else I love in the hospital.
Jilly + Killian
Jilly:I know you can’t read this right now. I’m sitting in the waiting room, surrounded by your gorgeous sisters. You told them about me, about all of us. Bent, Cap, and Caroline are here too. I don’t want to forget anything. I don’t want to stop talking to you even when you can’t talk back.
Jilly:I’m not ashamed to tell you Bent had to scoop me up off the floor of my room. He had a trail of sorority girls following after him like an amber-scented parade of concern and questions. He strapped me into his car and then drove us five hours north to where you are. We didn’t really speak. I didn’t speak. He spent the whole drive trying to convince me that I wasn’t going to lose you before I ever really had you.
Jilly:We made it to the hospital a few hours before Cap and Caroline. That’s when we met your family and realized they already knew all about us. About Dicer. It means a lot you told them about my brother. That he mattered enough to you. They knew how he got his nickname and how he was an amazing friend. Thank you.
