015. how's she doing?

as vinnie walked inside the room, sydney glared at him before turning her attention back to her bestfriend who laid in the hospital bed.

"how's she doing?"
"shes stable" she stated.
"just stable?"
"yes vincent, just stable"

he sat in the chair on the other side of the bed, staring at the large bandages that covered both of her forearms entirely. he looked back over to sydney, seeing her eyes still slightly red and puffy with bright pink cheeks.

"if you need some rest, you can go home for a little bit" he said softly, not taking his eyes away from lennon.
"and leave you alone with her? not happening"
"sydney, i know i made a total douche move but i wouldn't physically hurt her, especially not anything like this"
"im expecting you to leave as soon as i walk back in" syd snapped before getting ready to head back to the small house they stayed at in malibu.

vinnie softly grabbed her hand, making sure to be gentle with her due to the bandanges, bruises and small scrapes. although he still wanted to know what happened in new york, his main worry was how lennon was feeling right now.

"i dont know if your really asleep or if your fake sleeping but if you are fake sleeping then i honestly dont blame you. if i were you i wouldnt wanna talk to me either but, considering im finally seeing you in person and i dont wanna have a restraining order against me, this is the one and only time i can actually give you the apology you deserve... so im sorry len. i know you always say actions speak louder than words but i cant really show you how much you mean to me with this little time. i also know its an overrated thing to say but, i really dont know what i was doing the other night. she was at the house with maddy and clearly i wasnt thinking anywhere near straight and it just happened. its totally fine if you dont believe me because like i said, i wouldnt believe me either. i actually really enjoyed hanging out and being able to cuddle with you. if sydney learns to not hate me anymore or atleast ease up, hopefully i can give you another apology that'll be really, really well thought out. i didnt think of you as just 'the girl i hooked up with' or anything like that. if theres one thing you can trust me on, i hope its that i actually enjoyed us, whatever we were. maybe im overthinking or im looking to deep into it but, i always considered us to be more than friends with benefits. maybe its just cause i wanted us to be more than friends with benefits or because we acted like more than what we really were. if i could have done it over, i probably wouldnt have rushed things on us. i know saying all this doesnt help with the cheating but, im just trying to show to that i care. i care so fucking much about you lennon. even if you really are asleep, then thats fine. atleast you wont have to see the person who made you do this to yourself. but im really sorry lennon. i never meant for this to happen and i never would have expected it to come to this... everything i have told you, besides one thing, since we started texting, was true. i can swear on that. the only thing i have ever lied to you about was dating someone like you. i thought it could, you know, make you hate me and make it easier for me to get rid of any sort of more than friends feelings towards you but, i guess that didnt really work... if this is the last time i get to apologize then, im really sorry lennon. i never meant for it to happen this way"

sydney stood outside, listening to vinnie apologize to the sleeping girl. her eyes slightly teared up before quickly hiding in the bathroom as she heard vinnie sit up and begin walking towards the door.
