Luke's POV

I stood there staring at Allison, the thoughts and memories going crazy, sending me into what felt like a hurricane of thoughts and emotions. It wasn't just a whisper telling me to forgive Allison now, it was almost all of me who wanted to give her a second chance. My mind ran back to Danielle, who was probably over hearing everything. I needed to say something, the silence was killing me, and it was probably killing Danielle and Allison too.

"Allison, I just don't know how I feel right now, my mind is going crazy, and I just need time to think about... a lot of things" I could barely make out the words, I don't even remember what I said, or if it made sense at all.

"It's f-fine I should've s-said anything, there's just t-too much going o-on. Her breathing was heavy, tears running down her face every second. I've never seen Allison so vulnerable before. It made me feel really bad for her, and I will admit, I have a reason too.

She said goodbye and left the hospital leaving me alone in the hallway, with stomping footsteps coming near me, I knew it was Danielle. She came up to me, I couldn't tell if her face was red from rage, or cause she had been crying.

"Can I explain?" I said calmly.

"She's the reason Calum could've died!" She yelled.

"A-and she asked you out!" Her voice was cracking and she was close to tears.

"Everyone deserves a second chance, what about you? You've given Calum a second chance, after the said countless times you wanted nothing to do with him. Allison made a mistake, but so did Calum" My voice was rising, and I was getting hot. I really didn't want to get mad at Danielle, but my anger was going to have to come out soon.

"Calum tried to apologize, he tried to make things better, all Allison did was make things worse and worse by the day" Her voice was rising too, and she was getting tensed up, clenching her fists.

"Allison is sorry, did you not see her? Have you not seen her? She's been crying for days probably. She realized her mistakes, she's trying to fix them, but she knows that you won't accept any apology from her" I said. I really couldn't believe for a second that I was defending Allison, but I was glad I was.

"I-I don't know w-why you're trying to defend h-her, but m-maybe there is a reason" She was on the verge of crying, I could tell, but she just needed to listen to why I was defending her.

"Maybe it's because she's trying to apologize, but everyone keeps shutting her down and keeps thinking she's this bad person, when she's not. She's a good person who made a really bad mistake, trust me I know Allison way more then you do" I said. It was official, I was mad, really mad.

"If you know her so much, and she's such a good person, why don't y-you, just g-give her a s-second chance and take h-her b-back" She said crying.

"Maybe I might just take her back, just remember, this was your idea not mine" I said in a very low voice.

I walked away from Danielle, a part of me feeling guilty, but if she wanted me to stay, she would've told me to go back to Allison. Those were her words, not mine.

Danielle's POV

It took me a few minutes to stop crying, I really couldn't believe what just happened. It was just what I was afraid of. Just what I almost fell into a depression about.

I lost Luke.

The thought only made me cry harder. I had realized it had been hours and it was pitch black outside. I wanted to see Calum. I knew he was listening, even though he didn't respond. I went into Calum's and asked if I could see Calum alone within the nurse in the room. She nodded and left the room.

"Hey Cal" I said softly.

"I really wish that you were here, I really need you right now, Luke... he just l-left. We b-broke u-up" I said. I felt the tears from my eyes start to stream down my face.

"I- I really wish that... That I- I never gave u-up on you, I- I wish that... I gave you a s-second chance, cause then all of this would've happened"

"Now I know what you were feeling"

"You felt replaced, and just thrown to the side"

"I'm really sorry for making you feel that way"

I just looked at Calum, minutes passed by, then hours, and I ended sleeping in Calum's room on the floor until I felt the doctor slightly shaking me.

"Miss, we're going to have to ask you to leave"

With Luke gone, I had no one to take me home, Sophia wasn't answering, and I was stuck at the hospital telling doctors I had no ride. For some reason, I couldn't stay there, I guess something was just going on there. I went up and down my contacts around 20 times, I just sighed and sat outside in a cool summer night looking at the stars.

"What went wrong" I whispered to myself.

The next morning I woke up on the same bench I had slept on, I had probably looked like a homeless person, but I didn't care. I tried turning on my phone, but it was dead. Probably from me calling people like crazy trying to get a ride. I went into the hospital, trying to find Calum's room. I went in and saw the nurse talking to someone, Calum's mom and Dad. I haven't seen them around the hospital until now, they just said it was to hard for them to see their son knowing that he tried to take his life.

I greeted them with a soft smile, but they just scoffed and rolled their eyes at me. I looked down in disappointment but walked over to Calum and sat down next to him.

"I hope these 1-2 months go by fast, I already miss you"
