Molly POV
Jacks updated the other lads that baby is fine, I'm still staring through the window, I see Jack go into the room and hug Dec, I physically see Decs heartbreak in his face. It's horrible, Jack sits next to Masons bedside, Dec walks out the room, I look at him but he doesn't look at me. I feel my world crash and shatter around me, I don't know what else to do except run, I run along the corridor towards the exit, I hear a few of the lads shout my name but I keep running.
Jack POV
When me and Ben walked into the waiting room where all the lads were waiting patiently for news, they all looked up and asked how Molly and the baby was. I told them it was all fine and then we chatted about any Mason updates, I see Molly just staring through the window to Mason, she won't go in, she thinks they all blame her. "Is Molly coming in here lad, we saved her the comfy chair" Luke says to me and I shake my head. "She won't come in, she blames herself, she thinks you lot all blame her and she think Dec hates her as he won't even look at her at all" I say getting tearful thinking about how much she hurts over this. "None of us blame her, we all would've done the same as Mase did. It was the drivers fault even the police said they have proof he was speeding" Madders says patting my shoulder and I just shrug at him with a defeated look. "Dec could never hate her, she knows that. I think it's more he's angry at the driver not her" Luke says reassuringly with the others agreeing. "She won't accept it, she hates herself for this. We both tried to convince her otherwise. She blames herself and the social media headlines aren't helping as they blame her too" Ben says as I can't speak again.
I stand up "I'm gonna go see how he's doing, Decs gonna need a hug." They all nod and I leave, as I walk into the room I see Molly just staring crying, I want to hold her tell her it's all going to be okay but I can't guarantee that, I can guarantee no one hates her, and it's not her fault but she doesn't want to hear that. She wants to know Mase is going to make it and none of us know that.
I walk in and seeing him laying there with tubes is horrible, I walk up to Dec and hold my arms out he falls into them crying. I tell him to go get some after or tea from the family room and I'll wait with Mase, as he walks out I see Molly run, I know it's because she needs Dec right now, she thinks her brother, who she loves to bits hates her while the other one is in hospital. I hear the lads call after her, I walk to the room doorway, "who's following her?" Hendo says to me, I shrug and say "there's only 2 people in this hospital right now she'll listen to. Ones in the hospital bed and the other one as much as it kills me, isn't me. It's Dec" they all nod agreeing, just as I finish talking Dec walks over. "Where's mol?" He says not knowing what's happened. I look at him "she's ran off mate, she thinks you hate her, she blames herself for Mason being here, she thinks you blame her too. She thinks she's lost you too." He looks shocked by the revelation and looks at the boys. "I don't hate her, I never could. I don't blame her. She's my little sister carrying my niece, are they both okay after that anyway?" He looks straight at me and I explain what the doctors said. "Bro, your the only one other than Mason that she'll listen to right now." Ben says and he nods. "You all stay with Mase, I think I know where she'll be" Dec says as he jogs down the corridor. I hope she listens to him.

Molly POV
I've found a little river with a bridge over it, so I've stood here staring at the water, thinking about everything, my phone keeps going off with headlines and messages blaming me for Mason being hit, people blaming me and I agree with them.
I hear footsteps but don't look around as I just want to be alone. Then I hear a voice, one of the last voices I thought I'd be hearing "I hear that you think I hate you mrs." I turn my head and see Dec staring at me with his arms open, I run into his arms as he engulfs me into a hug. "It's my fault, he's going to die and it's my fault Dec" I say through the tears and he shakes his head crying too. "He ain't gonna die Mols, he's strong, he's a fighter plus he's got a niece to meet in around 17 weeks" he says reassuringly placing his hand on my bump. "Anyway, none of us blame you at all, we all blame the driver, ignore social media as they don't know shit. Mason was just the first one to see the car and closest to get you out the way, we all ran to save you" I just sob, I fully breakdown in Decs arms, "please stop blaming yourself, it's the drivers fault, who the police are going to catch. When Mase wakes up he won't blame you either."
We find a bench and we sit down talking about Mason and all the funny things he'd do. It's been about an hour and half, when Decs phone rings, it's Jack. He answers quickly. Then within 5 minutes he's hung up he's pulling me up off the bench, "we've got to go. A certain Mr Mount is requesting your presence" I smile and scream "he's actually awake" Dec nods and says "the docs says the damage wasn't as extensive as first believed." "How did Jack know you were with me anyway? No one knew where I went" he smiles and laughs, "I text him saying I found you when I saw you on the bridge, otherwise he may have made a search party for you" I link his arm and we both rush back to the hospital.
