Mercedes couldn't sit at home doing nothing. Not only was Blaine hurt, with a distraught Kurt, but there were other people she knew hurt in the crash. It didn't take her long to make her way up to the hospital, mainly hunting for Kurt, but trying to be there for whoever of her friends needed her.

She found her way to the waiting room, spotting the familiar figure of Sam easily. She hurried over to him, sitting down next to him. "Any news?" she asked, looking at just how tired he looked.

Sam shook his head but then cleared his throat as he glanced at her. "Um, no... yes. Sort of?" he responded. His brain felt like it was short-circuiting with the worry.

"I'm waiting on news about Mike. His folks are in there somewhere with him, as far as I know. Mrs Chang is going to fill me in when she can. I have news about some of the Warblers. Finn filled me in on what he could. Nick hit his head and tore some ligaments in his wrist. Lucas just has some cuts and bruises. The Scottish dude, Callum, was trapped in the front seat with Blaine, he hurt his back and broke his ankle. Jeff's doing okay as far as I can see. Blaine's the worst. He's been moved to the High Dependency Unit, but I don't know what his injuries are yet. I've only seen Kurt with his folks in passing. A-At least Mike wasn't driving..." he added shakily. He couldn't deny that had been a huge worry in his mind since he heard about the crash and in the wake of Mike's drunk Facebooking.

"Who was?" Mercedes asked, trying to take in all that Sam had said. "And what the hell was Mike doing..." She cut off what she was going to say. Recriminations wouldn't do anyone any good, not now. They just had to be strong, and help each other out. She could find Kurt later, but Sam looked terrible, and she was here, right now. He'd given her her prom dream - a date to the prom, and a dance, and they'd become friends. He looked like he needed a friend here and now. "Do you know who else was in the car with him?"

Sam rubbed a hand over his face to try and wipe away some of the anxiety. He was so scared for Mike, it felt like his heart was lodged up in his throat. "Strando. He's been charged. I don't know what the hell Mike was doing, I wish I did. I wish he would talk to me, but he hasn't in weeks. We just... we had a falling out..."

"Um, Karofsky, Azimio and Parkinson. I don't know why the hell he would get into a car with those idiot sober, let alone drunk. He didn't speak to me all night, I don't know if he spoke to anyone else, but none of this makes sense. And Blaine and his friends, of all people. This is horrible," he fretted.

Puck walked into the waiting room after pacing the whole damn hospital. There was nothing he could do by being antsy and freaking out, so he decided the best thing to do was park it in the waiting room until they heard something... anything.

Walking in, he found Sam looking an absolute mess. "Hey..." he said, his tone uncharacteristically soft. "You... You okay, dude?"

showingnuttage July 10 2011, 16:43:25 UTC

Sam looked up at Puck, almost surprised to see him there after the exchange earlier he had witnessed on Facebook, but god he was relieved to see his friend. He shook his head. "No... fuck, dude, I'm glad you weren't in that car," he added, frowning in concern. He covered his face in his hands. "Fucking idiots."

Hand running over his mohawk, Puck took the seat next to Sam, and turned to look at him. "I... I tried to stop Mike," he said, as if somehow, it would help. He didn't know why. It hadn't helped. It hadn't stopped him, and now, Puck hated himself a million times more for not stopping him.

"Shit, I'm glad you're not hurt, though," Puck said carefully. "Goddamn Strando... What the fuck did he think he was doing?" Not that Puck really had any room to judge people for doing stupid things. Unsafe sex, stealing an ATM, and yes, even driving while intoxicated a time or two, were all things Puck had done before. But he'd made it out alive, and now? Now he couldn't believe that he'd survived a million stupid decisions for the most part unscathed, short of a stint in juvie and the pain of giving up his child... And now Mike had made one stupid decision, and this? This was what happened?

This information was just a little too much for Sam to swallow and he looked up at Puck in disbelief. So, Mike didn't just get in the car by some stupid accidental move? He deliberately got in there, even after being warned no to by Puck? He was drunk, and got into a car with a bunch of drunken idiots that nearly killed him and Blaine. There was a tiny shake of his head, dumbfounded and at first all he could do was let out a sharp breath when his chest felt tight and a sickness started to churn in his stomach. "Did he say anything to you?"

"I doubt there was much thought in any of this bullshit. I just can't believe it. And to Blaine and his friends too, of all people. The year was supposed to be getting better, not fucking worse," he said hoarsely.

It took Tina a good fifteen minutes to actually work up the nerve to enter the hospital doors and find the rest of her friends in the waiting room. She didn't know what was wrong with her, really. She didn't have much of a problem going to her usual doctor for check-ups and physicals. But...times like this, she really hated hospitals.

But at the same time, there were more important things than her own personal trauma - her friends, her good friends were hurt, and she was sick of staying home and feeling helpless. The waiting room was eerily solemn, even with the familiar faces of her unharmed friends, the place still felt cold and unwelcoming to Tina. She gave a weak wave of her hand as she approached. "H..Hey. I, um, I made it."

Looking up, Sam gave a small nod. It wasn't like he expected anyone to be a fan of hospitals. Who was? But if a friend was in trouble, Sam was going to be there to help until someone told him to get lost and go home. He was tired and could feel a headache developing from the stress.

He cleared his throat. "If it was too stressful for you, you didn't need to come, you know. There's loads of people here. I don't even know if there is much anyone can do."

"What? Oh, n-no, it was....it was nothing," She said, trying to wave it off as casually as she could. Except she was lying through her teeth. "I mean...there's more important things than my little, little phobia."

She gave a shrug, moving to sit next to him. "I...I know we can't do anything, but I'd rather be worrying with my friends than by myself and imagining the worst."
