SPIELBERG, AUSTRIA. JULY 2025.
Olivia spent all day and all night in the hospital, waking for any sign of the two drivers to wake up. A couple days had passed and nothing had changed. Jaxon and Sophie made the effort to fly out and visit both Thierry and Jake in the hospital.
"Hey." Sophie said, rushing to give Olivia a hug. "How is everything?"
Olivia had a straight face. "Nothing's changed, they're still not waking up."
Sophie sighed. "How are you?"
"Tired, stressed, conflicted."
Sophie grabbed Olivia gently by her arm and brought to a seat to sit down. "What's up? Talk to me."
Jaxon went off to visit the two, even though they weren't awake he wanted to just check in on his friends.
Olivia turned to Sophie. "I haven't been able to sleep properly, the doctors aren't sure whether they're waking up and I've still got my tour to do."
"It's ok," Sophie comforted, pulling Olivia in for a hug as she began to sob quietly, "it's difficult, I know."
The crash had affected everyone, Sophie had asked for a break from filming her film to come visit the hospital and it was causing her a lot of stress - she would sometimes struggle to focus when acting. She was a professional, but this was such a devastating situation.
She understood the commitments Olivia had, she had thousands of fans waiting for her to perform, with hotels and travel booked. It would be incredibly difficult for her to just cancel it. However, she knew the mental toll it would take on her if she was to perform.
"Jake would want you to carry on," Sophie reassured, "he knew how much it meant to you."
"I know," Olivia said in between sobs, "but it's going to be so hard. How can I just perform knowing that he's like this?"
Sophie sighed.
"It's shit, I know. Let's just pray he wakes up soon after."
"The doctors said that they'd both suffered severe internal bleeding and a couple of broken bones," Olivia explained, "Jake had it worse than Thierry but the impact must've knocked them out."
"They'll be fine." Sophie said, sounding like she was trying to convince herself more than Olivia.
Just then, Jaxon rushed back into the waiting room where the two girls were. "Guys, you might want to come. Thierry's just woken up!"
Their eyes lit up but Olivia couldn't help but feel severely disappointed, this meant that Jake was still unconscious. She couldn't help but feel so much rage for Thierry - if it wasn't for his reckless driving perhaps everyone would be ok right now.
Sophie placed a hand on Olivia's shoulder. "Are you ok? I can stay here with you, I understand you might not want to see him."
Olivia shook her head. "I don't think I can talk to him right now."
