James's POV:
"What are you doing?" em asks me as i stand by the door to riley's room.

"Listen em, i know i hurt your sister but i want to fix this. So if Riley wants me in her life you need to accept it." i quietly speak.

"Did she say she did? Just because you found her doesnt mean anything." Emily shot back.

"I love her okay." i tell her.

"Doesn't excuse it." emily tells me.

I let Hunter and Emily go into Riley's hospital room, as i stand at the end of her bed watching her sleep. While emily sat beside her and hunter sat by the window. I love her, and i know she doesn't trust me but i will gain her trust back somehow.

Riley's POV:
I hear odd conversation surrounding me, i dont remember much except for ringing James. Maybe he found me? He had to have found me. How else would i find myself here. I wanted to hear James's voice, when i sheepishly open my eyes i whisper his name.

"Jay..." i whisper.

He's at the end of my bed, as Hunters by the window and Em is beside me. No signs of mum or dad not that i find that unusual.

"I am here riles." he soothes.

"Can you sit beside me?" i ask shyly.

He takes a seat beside me sitting on my bed, and emily looks less then impressed.

"Hunter and i will get some drinks we'll be back ri." emily tells us.

We nod and her and hunter leave the room. Just James and I, a feeling i love.

"You saved me." I tell him.

"I just called an ambulance ri." james tells me.

"After how i've been treating you, you could have left me." i quietly spoke.

"But i didn't.." he drifts off.

"How can we fix this?" i ask shyly.

"I dont know riles, but i will prove that i do want this. " he tells me.

"Can you hold my hand?" i ask.

Stupid me, he's in a relationship. He takes my hand within his, but not my usual one. I look down. It hits me, my hand was infected and thats how i got landed here.

"My hand huh?" i speak.

"Yeah precious, its infected." James tells me.

"You can't call me that." i tell him.

I slowly put back up my wall, why he was taken, and he needed to prove his loyality.

"Im sorry." he shyly spoke.

"It's okay." i mumble.

James's POV:
I am here beside my angel holding her hand, comforting her, but she wont let us get back together till she can gain my trust. How do i even begin to manage that? Riley's trust is fragile and i learnt that the hard way.
"It's not okay i landed us in this mess, and i can't get us out!" i spoke louder.

"James, if you want this. You will." Riley spoke squeezing my hand tighter.

"If i said that 2 days ago your response wouldn't have been the same." i tell her.

She knew i was right.

"Maybe, but this whole time i've just wanted you to fight for us.." her crackled voice drifts off.

"I can't do it. How do i?" i ask confused.

How do i begin to get Riley's trust back, the one i shattered and lost. She's in here because of me. I need to find away to gain her trust back, but how?
