Lizzie's pov

I have been visiting Y/N less as I have been spending more time with the twins. Something I should have done all along really.

"The twins really want to see you but I hate the thought of them seeing you like this." I told her sadly. "Hopefully you will open those beautiful eyes again and come back to me. Back to us." I kissed her hand softly just hoping for some sort of reaction but there is still none.

"Mrs Olsen?" The neurologist spoke as he walked in the room.

"Yeah?" I said as I turned around to them.

"We need to take Y/N up for some more scans to see if there is any brain activity left." They said as they fiddled with their clipboard.

"What else are you trying to tell me." I asked him sternly.

"Uhm, if she doesn't show any change within the week we have no choice but to switch off the machines." They said nervously. I couldn't believe what I was hearing right now. "With every week she remains in this vegetated state the chances of her survival reduces and is most likely to never regain conciousness."

"Seriously? You expect me to just give up on my wife." I shouted at them.

"I'm sorry Ma'am." They said before they walked out.

Lizzie's pov

I woke up the next morning with a banging headache. I noticed that I was half naked and just in my underwear. I was confused as to how I got here. I was supposed to be meeting Tom after a few drinks with the girls. I got the clothes from the bottom of my bed and slipped them on before I made my way to the bathroom. I rinsed my face in cold water before I went downstairs to find my mum sat with her book in hand.

"Long night?" She smirked at me. I groaned and got myself a coffee. "I would appreciate it if you and Tom done the dirty at his so I don't have to hear you both. Although I must say he is a bit premature with how quick it was over."

"I don't remember coming home last night and Tom wasn't with me." I told her confused. She made me a bacon sandwich before she looked at me.

"Then who was it?" She asked me in a serious tone.

"I don't know what you are on about mum." I told her honestly. She gave me a weird look before she left it at that.

Y/N pov

I walked into the precinct and saw Robbie waiting at my desk. He smirked when he looked up at me.

"So how was Clay?" He asked me teasingly

"I'm sure you know." I groaned as I sat down as he just laughed.

"How was Sophia when she got home?" He asked me

"I think she was ok but she was drunk and I didn't wake her this morning to find out." I told him with a shrug.

"So was it that Lizzie that you've told me so much about?" He asked with a smirk.

"Yeah it was." I told him as I looked through the latest case file.

"So?" He prompted so I told him everything that happened last night. "She must have really strong feelings for you." He said with a smile.

"No she doesn't. She is in a relationship and I am getting married soon." I told him.

"But you love Lizzie." He told me seriously.

"Yeah I always have but she doesn't feel the same." I groaned as I closed the file.

"Well last night says otherwise." He said as he stood up before we walked to the briefing. I didn't have enough tine to think about what he said because the briefing had started.

Once I had gotten home, I took my jacket and shoes off before putting my gun in the safe in my bedroom. The same safe my dad used to use when I was younger. No one else knows the combination because I don't want them to see what files I have in there. Even Sophia doesn't know it.

"Hey babe." I greeted her as she was sat in the kitchen. She just hummed as she sipped her wine. "What's wrong?"

"What is going on between you and Lizzie?" She asked me sternly.

"Nothing is going on. She is my best friend nothing more." I told her. God I'm going to hell.

"Are you sure about that because I know that Clay isn't in the state because he is in New York for work." She said as she stood up. "And I know that it was Lizzie who was there last night."

"I was making sure she got home safe. She was drunk and alone. You would've done the same if it was one of your friends." I told her feeling the anger start to rise in the both of us 

"But I wouldn't lie about it." She shouted at me.

"No you wouldn't. You're just going to carry on suffocating me because you don't trust me. You have been like this since Lizzie came back for school. Am I not allowed to have friends?" I told her angrily

"Not ones who clearly have feelings for what is mine." She seethed as she got in my face.

"I belong to no one. I am my own person." I told her sternly not backing down.

"I want you gone. Out of this house." She told me sternly.

"In case you have forgotton. This is my house. My Father's house. My name is on the deed, not yours so you will be the one to leave and never come back." I told her as she just looked at me shocked. It felt amazing to finally stand up to myself.

"So this is it?" She asked me with tears in her eyes making me laugh.

"Yeah it is. We're done." I told her sternly not giving in to her. I watched as she slid off the engagement ring and placed it on the counter and she walked upstairs to get her things and leave my life for good. I couldn't believe that I was finally free of her grip on me.

Y/N pov

I could hear the beeping of the heart monitor and the buzzing of the respirator. I felt awful as the tube was in my throat and wanted nothing more than to rip it out. I wanted to move but everything felt so heavy since I hadn't used my limbs in who knows how long. I finally opened my eyes only to squint them before they adjusted to the brightness of the room. The empty hospital room.
