(Spencer's POV)
Beep beep... I hear something Loud fill my ears. It's rather annoying. I open up eyes and look around to see load of lights. I try and sit up. I feel my head begin to pound.
"Ouch..." I say as I put my hand to my head.

"Ahh Spencer good to see you awake!!" I hear the voice of an old man say as he walks Over to me. I don't like the look of him he looks to professional for his own good just like my daddy.

"What happened?" I ask as I look around my room. It's very plain and boring, they should really do something to it.

"You and miss Perry where both taken out of the pool after staying under for some time. You were both unconscious when her family bought you and her to us."
I instantly felt guilty for what I did it was horrible for me to do to her. I shouldn't have been so thoughtless.

"Is she okay though?!?" I ask worriedly as I bite on the inside of my lip.
"I'm afraid Miss Perry is in a coma, she was having a panic attack in the water and has been suffering from depression for these past months, the stress and weight of it all had gotten to her and has put her in a state of uncertainty weather she will live or survive, but that's her decision to make" the doctor said to me as he best an to check on me. To me I felt as if he should be leaving me and to do everything in their power to try and make her feel better. Because of me she is suffering, because of me I am the reason she's here in the first place.

"Can I see her??" I ask as I feel the tears begin to fall. I wipe them away quickly. I shouldn't be showing any emotion to someone I don't even know. But at the same time maybe I'm showing god my emotions that I never show, that she deserves to be saved.

"I'm afraid you're not family or any friend of Miss Perry's so I'm afraid that it is not possible-" I decide to get out of my seat and feeling rather stiff begin to move. My muscles ache as I move towards the elevator and press a button towards the private wards. I mean she is a celebrity, I doubt she'll be in a normal ward.
The elevator door opens and I quickly get out. I spot a nurse and rush over to her asking for her whereabouts.

"Room 5 turn to the left" she points to the left side. I think her and move over to her directions. I see a older woman and a man both hugging each other as the woman cries into the mans shoulder. I feel my stomach begin to twist. This is because of me.

"Oh Keith, why didn't she tell us?" I hear the women say as she wipes her swollen looking eyes.
"I don't know Mary, I don't know..." He says back to get quietly, but loud enough for me to hear him.
"Are you lost my dear?" The women says as she notices me standing there. I feel my body turn to stone as she walks over to me. She crouches down and looks into my eyes. I see so many similarities in this women who looks like her. This must be her mother.

"I'm not lost, I know exactly know where I am supposed to be, I know your daughter is in a coma and it's all my fault, if I hadn't provoked her and been mean to her just because she hired the pool and I was being a stupid stubborn girl. I began to sob into her shoulder. She rubbed my back soothingly.

"Darling, this isn't your fault, she made her own decision to do this so don't blame yourself, trust me she would have done the same as you at your age, she was a stubborn child" she chuckles to herself as if she's reliving a memory of her.

"Can I see her?" I ask hopefully. She looks very hesitant.
"Please, I know she can't hear me or see me, but I feel like I need to say a proper sorry.
"Okay but only for five minutes!" She says to me as she grabs my hand and goes to open the door. I close my eyes tightly and brace myself for the harsh shot of reality of my doing.
