All Grown Up

Paige's POV

I was sitting in Liam's lap when I felt his phone vibrate in his pocket under my thigh. He reached in his pocket and pulled out his phone. I slid off his lap and he got up walking in the kitchen. I followed him and looked at his saddened expression. "Okay. Thank you."

"What?" He grabbed his keys.

"Peyton and Luke. They're in the hospital." My eyes widened and I ran out, jumping in the car. They others ran out and got in. Liam tried to start the car and it wouldn't.

"Liam what the fuck?"

"Paige calm down! I'm trying okay!" I sighed angrily and got out. "Where are you going?"

"The hospital's only a block away." I started walking down the street and I heard footsteps.

"Paige! Get back in the car. You're not walking by yourself this late at night and our daughter is in the hospital." I rolled my eyes and ran off. I heard the car start and Liam drove up beside me. He stopped and I got in. He sped off to the hospital and parked near the door. I got out and ran inside, tears stinging my eyes.

"Luke Hemmings and Peyton Payne?"

"3rd floor room 230." I ran towards the stairs and ran up to the third floor. I ran down the hall looking for the room and ran into someone. I looked up at Liam and ran past him. They followed me closely and I ran into room 230.

I looked at my daughter on the bed and cried. "Mr. and Mrs. Payne?" I felt a pair of arms wrap around me. "Could I speak to you both in the hall?" I trudged out of the room with Liam. "She's okay a few cuts and bruises but they're not major. She is however in a coma. It truly is a miracle because the hit was on her side." Luke.

"And the other guy?" I buried my face in Liam's chest and he stroked my hair, kissing my head.

"Also fine. More major injuries such as a few broken bones. He's also in a coma. From the injuries, I think he embraced her cushioning the impact. We're not sure how long they'll be in a coma." Liam nodded and the doctor walked off. I silently cried into Liam's chest.

"Come on." He kissed my head and we walked in. Everyone else walked out and I looked at my friend and daughter. "I'm going to go call Greyson. He deserves to know." I nodded and grabbed Peyton's hand, tears flowing down my cheeks.

"Please wake up baby girl. I love you." I softly pecked her cheek. I stepped over to Luke and bit my lip. "Thank you for saving my daughter. I don't blame you for any of this either." Liam walked back in with Greyson and grabbed my hand. He led me out and sat down, pulling me in his lap.

Greyson's POV

I looked at Peyton and sighed. I sat down and grabbed her hand. "Peyton. You may or may not hear me right now but I can't keep quiet forever. When I first moved here and I met you I thought you were perfect. We started hanging out and I developed strong feelings for you. I wanted to tell you this earlier tonight but I got nervous. Peyton, I'm in love with you." I gently squeezed her hand and laid my head on her stomach. I fell asleep like that.

~The Next Morning~

I felt a hand on my shoulder and looked up. "Good morning Greyson."

"Morning Mrs. Payne." I sat up and looked at my unconscious girlfriend.

"Paige. Has she waken up?" I shook my head and rubbed the back of her hand with my thumb. "Have you been like this all night?" I nodded and yawned. "Some of the others are going to get some food would you like anything?"

"No thank you. I'm fine." She nodded and walked out. I sat there the whole morning until Logan walked in. "Hey mate."

"Hey. My parent wanted me to ask if you were hungry. I shook my head and he pulled up a chair. "You really like her."

"I love her. I haven't left this spot since I got here and I haven't eaten since our date last night." I looked at her and brushed a strand of hair from her face.

"You realize if I walk out of here they're probably going to get you something anyway?" I chuckled and nodded. He pat my shoulder and walked out. I stayed there for a couple of hours until a doctor came in. I stood in the corner until he left and I went back to Peyton's bedside.

"Goodnight beautiful." I brushed a strand of hair from her face and fell asleep in the chair.
