Evelyn's pov

I run into the hospital, quickly to the stairs. I run the stairs to level 3. I know the room number my parents are in. They aren't dead yet, but they don't know if they'll ever wake up. I walk into the room and see them. I sigh and walk up to my mum first. Liam drove me here, but is still parking the car I guess.
My mum looks peaceful, like she's resting or something. Except for the bruises and cuts, it doesn't seem like she's been in an accident. I can't believe they're here though. It's like I'm dreaming. How could this happen ? My dad is a great driver. They did go away a lot, maybe he got tired and didn't pay enough attention to the road.
A nurse walks in. I look at her.
'You must be the daughter?'  I nod and wait till she explains everything.
'So, your parents are in serious critical conditions. We're for 90% sure they're not going to make it. I know this sounds really bad, but it's not impossible. We're not sure what happened, but someone drove them off the road. The side of the car was all broke and stuff, so they must have been pushed and not by themselves. The police will find out who did this. But, your parents are in a come right now. You can come as much and often as you want though' just when she wants to walk away. Liam walks in. She nods and smiles to him. When she leaves the room, a really annoying, but also dreading noise is heard. It's the heart machine of my mum. Her heart rate just went to zero. I look at Liam, eyes wide open. He looks unsure what to do. Then, I look over and see the lifeless body of my mum. Tears start to roll over my cheeks. Liam pulls me into his arms and hug me close. I cry and look over at my dad. Two minutes later, the same thing happens to my dad. I turn around and hug Liam and cry my eyes out.


* 5 days later*


I'm standing in front of my parents' graves. My sister is standing next to me, both just staring at them. The funeral just ended and they left us alone. My sister's boyfriend and Liam are waiting a few meters away, to leave us together to say goodbye.
'They were driving home from my place. This is all my fault' my sister, Gina, goes.
'Don't blame yourself. It's the fault of the person who drove them off. Not yours. Don't beat yourself up over this' Gina nods and hugs me. My sister and I never were really close, so this hug is kind of awkward.

I've been staying alone at my house. Liam keeps asking if I want to stay with him, but I just wanted to be alone. I was really dreading this day. Funerals make it always official. They say, no it wasn't a dream, they're really dead. I turn around and walk to Liam. He hugs me close and looks at me.
'Do you want to go home?' he asks me.
'Just to get some stuff'  he frowns.
'Can I take that offer and stay with you now?' Liam smiles and nods. We get in his car and drives me to my house. I grab a bag and start putting clothes in it. Liam helps me, he likes choosing what I should wear. I then grab some of my shoes. Liam takes my make up again and puts them in my bag. As last, I take my school stuff and chargers.

I haven't been to school these past days. The principal said he understood. I have to go back though. Eleanor, Amy, Cassie, Niall and Mason were at the funeral as well. They've been texting me the whole week to see if I needed anything. It's really sweet. I never thought they'd care so much for me. But ever since things started to really get serious with Thom and stuff, they became my best friends, even my family. It's weird, but I love it.

Liam and I walk into his house and I immediately smell food. I smile. I missed that. Liam takes my stuff upstairs and I walk over to Karen. She smiles. I know she wants to ask how I am, but she already knows the answer, so she doesn't ask me. I grab the plates and everything and make up the table. I just watch Karen cook till Liam is back. Dinner is ready just then. We all eat in silence. I guess both Karen and Liam don't know that to say. When we're all done eating, Karen breaks the silence.
'I hope you know you can stay as long as you want. Even if that's years, I don't mind' she says. I smile.
'Thank you Karen, for everything' she smiles and hugs me. Liam then takes me upstairs to show me where he put everything. Everything is with his stuff, which is nice to see that he did that.
'We did forget things where you can sleep in though, so here is a shirt of mine'  he hands me a red shirt. I smile at him. I sit down on his bed and sigh. He sits down next to me and takes my hand. I look up at him, tears in my eyes.
'I can't believe I have no parents anymore. I know they weren't around much, but they were my parents. I'm alone now.'
'No you're not alone. You have my mum, Eleanor, Cassie, Amy, even Niall and Mason. And most important, you have me' he says. I smile a bit. I look back down. Liam puts his finger under my chin and pulls it up so I look him in the eyes. He leans in and kisses me softly. His hands move from my face to my hips. I smile during the kiss. I put one hand in his hair and the other on his arm. He pulls away and smiles.
'I hope that makes you feel better' I giggle and nod.
'It did. Thank you Li' he nods. My phone buzzes and I look. And you won't believe what it says.

Hello beautiful,

I'm sorry about your parents. Can't believe someone would do that.
Oh right, I would, cause I did it. Oh and if you tell the police, I'll drive you off as well.

I show Liam and he just pulls me close. He did hurt me this time.
