Bleeding Love Prologue.

Optimism is a weird thing. In the beginning, it seems the hardest route. When you're down, you feel down. You just know you've hit rock bottom and you don't even think about how it could get better. Pessimism is so much easier. Being unhappy, grouchy, mean. But is that really the way the world wants to view you? You could be different, optimistic. To be the same is to be boring. No one likes anything boring.
And the further you get into optimism, the more it becomes a part of you. The more you feel the need to be happy, free from cares or worries. You pay more attention to small detail. Squeaky swings, crickets chirping in the summer night, windchimes blowing in the breeze, tall grass swaying in the wind. All of it. Its all around us. And no one notices. Too caught up in bigger problems, that may not even be a big problem in the first place.
Optimism is something Nick Jonas needed. Laying down in a hospital bed for a full 24 hours with nothing to do but watch old re-runs of The Price is Right gets boring quickly. Diabetes isn't the first thing that comes to mind when you think of the word optimism. But thats what could give him optimism. Because of his diabetes, he met her. She was his optimism. She was his light. She was the sun dawning on a new and better day. And thats exactly what he needed.
A summer job at a hospital. Fifteen-year-old genious Davani Wyler had the mind set to be a doctor. So working at the hospital that summer would be a breeze. Her neighbor, sixty three-year-old Robert Hill was closer to a grandfather than a neighbor. Head of the Emergency Room and very level-headed, he was the one who offered Davani the job in the first place. Take care of the children, the little ones who had little optimism. The little four to ten-year-olds who were dying. Leukemia, cancer, brain tumors. All taking away their life. Their spirit. Their happiness. Their optimism.
But Robert doesn't exactly just stick her to one job. Sending her to check on multiple patients that are not exactly children. Teenagers, adults, and the elderly, all alike. And no matter what age they were, they learned to adore Davani.
Always the lonely heart, Davani had never found anyone. Until she met him. And he was exactly what she needed.
Optimism.
