Stacey's Pov
Its been two days and I haven't heard a thing from Liam. I'm starting to panic more. Is he okay? What's happening with him?
I hope he's not hurt. Again. I feel my heat beating quickly, anxious about everything.
Sitting in my livingroom staring at some crap on the TV as I keep checking my phone thinking that it's broke. But it can't be because everyone else can get through to me.
What's happening? I hate not knowing.
Smoking my joint with my glass of vodka orange, I begin to hear someone knocking on the front door. Checking the time, I see it's just after 8pm and I didn't know anyone was coming.
Getting up, I open the door and see Trent standing there. No! Please no!
"Is Liam okay?" Is all that falls from my mouth but he sighs. Somethings obviously happened.. my heart starts pounding erratically and my breathing escalates as I stumble back opening the door wider. He walks in reaching for me, but I hold my hand up and escort him into the living room. Following him in, anxious as hell to know what's happened to my baby. I slowly drop down where I was before, and turn to face him. Please be okay!
"Something has happened, Liam's in the hospital, but I don't know how bad it is yet" he tells me and I instantly let the tears fall. Oh my god nooo! My poor baby. I knew something was wrong. He needs out of that hell hole.
"Which hospital, we're going right now!" I demand standing and ready to go grabbing car keys from the coffee table.
"I don't know that either Stacey. Sit down" he orders and I sit at his tone of voice.
"What do you know Trent?" I ask him teary eyed and emotional.
"Not a lot sweetheart, I've only found this out not long ago and came straight to you" he says and I sigh dropping back. How bad is it.. Is he going to be okay? Will he survive? If he's in hospital, it must be bad. Right? Fuck!
My thoughts are swirling and no one has any answers for me!
"I'm ffinding out what happened and where he is, I'm waiting for a phone call. Just stay calm, it's no use getting more upset when we don't know anything yet" he says more gently but I snap.
"He's in the fucking hospital, it's got to be bad Trent!" I stress and he runs his hand through his hair, staring at me.
"Calm down sweetheart, I know you're upset, but that's not going to help any of us, Liam needs you to be strong for him" he tells me and I grab my glass downing the drink. I need more. I need Liam. My poor baby..
I hear a phone buzzing repeatedly and check mine but nothing,
"One minute, let me get this" Trent says pulling out his phone and walking out the room.
I wonder who did this to my baby.. an enemy like he said he had or the guy from the visit? The first guys got to him again from the shower? What the fuck happened to my baby. I need to know. Where the fuck were the screws? Fuck! What's happening?
"Alright, thanks" I hear Trent say, walking back into the livingroom and looking at me.
"Come with me, I know where he is" I jump up, grabbing my phone and purse and follow Trent out the door. Where is he taking me? It needs be to my baby.***
Pulling up in the hospital car park after a long silent drive, I jump out and rush towards to entrance. Trent follows behind me and grabs my hand.
"This way sweetheart" he pulls me along and my feet just follow him. We walk down a long corridor and through some doors where I look up at the sign ICU.
Oh my god, my baby the tears come flowing down and Trent looks at me sadly.
"Wait here, I'll get you in to see him" he tells me and I nod my head slowly. Looking around I see a bunch of doctors and nurses flowing in and out of rooms and I just hope he's gonna okay.. Please be okay. Stay with me Liam. I need you.
I turn to my left where Trent went and see a door at the bottom with two officers stationed outside. Liam must be in there.
Trent walks out and down towards the officers. They have a conversation and Trent turns to me, waving me over to him. I rush down to him and brace myself, taking deep breaths.
"Right sweetheart, he's in there and just woke up. Prepare yourself, he might not look like the Liam you last saw" he says sadly and my tears are blurring my vision as I just push through the door and freeze. Oh my god. My baby!
His beautiful face is battered. I wish them all dead. I wanna get my hands on them and kill them all, how dare they do this to him! Their them will come.
Rushing over to him, I hold his hand and I feel a little squeeze from him making my heart beat faster.
"Baby it's me, I'm here" I say to him voice thick with emotion, looking at his swollen and brusied face.
"Where am I?" he asks groggily trying to sit up but winces in pain.
"No, stay laying down baby, you're in the hospital. It's gonna be okay, I'm here" I tell him silently crying. Why would someone do this to him?
"Stacey? Baby.." he says sounding comfused looking towards me.
"Yes, it's me baby, I'm here, don't worry" I tell him again and he looks like he can see me properly now through his blackened eyes.
"What happened? Why am I here? Fuck!" he says holding his side.
"I don't know baby, I was hoping you'd tell me" I say and he looks around the room confused.
"We need to leave here, get me out of here baby. I can't go back" he says and I break down not wanting him to either.
"I know baby, Trent's here too. He brought me to you" I tell him and he looks back at the door.
"Trent? Fuck.. I-" he pauses but I shake my head.
"Its okay baby" I tell him with a sad smile. But the door suddenly opens and I turn to see Trent walk through to us. He pauses and runs his hand over his face.
"Fucking hell Liam, I'm sorry, I promise to sort this" he says and I look to him unsure..
"How!? He can't go back there Trent, please" I beg him not being able to handle that. It's gonna get worse.
"Don't make him go back, I beg you" I say looking back at Liam as I hold his hand in mine.
"I remember them coming into my cell, I think five maybe six of them came at me. I really tried baby" he says and I see a tear slide down his cheek and I reach up cupping his face gently.
"It's not your fault baby, you're not going back" I tell him holding his hand in mine.
"But it is, it was retaliation for the fucked up job we did, I think I took two or three out but then they jumped me and I dropped. After that.. I don't remember" he tells us and I nod understanding. They better all be worse off. Trent has to fix this. Liam can't go back!
"Two of them died, one is in here that I'm about to pay a visit to next and the rest are still in prison" he tells us and I just wanna go find them and kill them all! How dare they do this to my baby!
"Did I kill them? My memories are fuzzy. Help me out" he says and I look to Trent hoping he knows.
"Yes you did but don't worry, you won't face any new charges" he tells Liam and I sigh with relief putting my head on the bed. Thank god.
"What's gonna happen now?" I ask Trent wanting to take Liam far away from all of this.
"We'll sort this once I'm done with my visit" he says and I nod my head pleased that he's dealing with it.
"Lay with me baby, I need you closer" Liam tells me and I kick off my shoes and pull back the blanket, crawling into him slowly not to hurt him. He wraps his arm around me and I begin to cry into him.
"I can't believe this happened baby, I'm so sorry I wasn't there" I cry and he shushes me kissing my forehead trying to soothe me.
"It's not your fault, don't blame yourself baby, this is on me. Just don't go please" he says sadly and I shake my head.
"I'll never leave you baby, I love you" I tell him and kiss him gently. He winces and I freeze.
"It's okay. I'm fine. I love you too baby" he tells me and I lay back on his pillow cuddling into him missing this feeling. He holds me tight to him and I let my tears slowly come to a stop needing to be strong for him like Trent said.
"Where can we go if you don't go back?" I ask him quietly looking back up at him.
"I don't care as long as you're there, I can't go back.. I don't think I'll actually survive another day" he says and I can't help the tears fall again at what he says.
"Don't say things like that baby, it scares me to leave you, I was so worried when I didn't hear from you. I knew something had happened but this.. This is a lot for you" I tell him gesturing to him.
"I thought I was going to die and never see you again. I'm putting you through so much baby. I'm soo sorry" he tells me and I cover his mouth with my finger.
"I don't care what do, Liam! I love you too much to walk away. I'll never walk away from you" I tell him honestly because this is just apart of the fucked up world.
"Maybe you should baby, you don't deserve this shit.. look at you, I'm breaking you each day with something new all over again" he says but I'm shaking my head, no! What the fuck!
"This is my decision Liam, don't push me away because I'm going nowhere.. please" I beg and look into his eyes. He can't do this again!
"I don't want to baby.. but-" he pauses like he's having trouble thinking about it.
"But- fuck! It kills me to be without you, but it's killing me more breaking you" he says and I move sitting up to look at him.
"We're not fucking doing this Liam! I'm not going anywhere regardless of what you say, you hearing me. NOWHERE!" I tell him sternly, wiping my eyes. How can he be saying all this again. I can't leave him. I need him just as much as he needs me.
"Baby, I went to prison, now I'm in hospital, how could you want this? Want me.. my love is fucking you up like I said" he says emotional, tears falling silently and I just want to hit some sense into him.
"Shut your fucking mouth! I don't want to hear another word about this. I'm with you because I want you.. because I love you Liam, no ifs, buts or maybes. I'm staying with you, it's us always" I start to raise my voice not liking his thought process. I hate when he thinks and says theses things.
"I just want what's best for you baby.. not me" he says and I grab his hand again.
"You are what's best for me. We love each other. That's all that matters baby.. our love" I tell him holding back my emotions. I can't keep fucking crying!
"Okay baby, I just needed to say it so you know you don't have to stay.. I'll understand" he says quietly but I kiss his head and smile.
"Well, I want too, so I'm staying with you no matter what happens. I'll always be here with you. I'm yours baby like you're mine" I say making sure he knows. He needs to know this!
I won't allow him to put our love down and push me away when he needs me now more than ever. I need to make him feel better. I can and will do this.
