Shawn's pov ( bet you weren't expecting that huh? 😏)

Step one, you say we need to talk
He walks, you say sit down, it's just a talk
He smiles politely back at you
You stare politely right on through
Some sort of window to your right
As he goes left, and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and blame
You begin to wonder why you came


Where did I go wrong?
I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
Let him know that you know best
Cause after all, you do know best
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence
Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along
And pray to God he hears you
And I pray to God he hears you

The song how to save a life by the fray silently plays in the car as we drove silently to the hospital.

 "Baby, i know you may or may not be listening right now but-

 *Take a deep breath*

 what ever happens at the hospital 

*Sniffles* 

 just know that i'll be right there, when you need me. i love you so very much, more than my entire life depends on it and i promise that one day in the future when we get married i'll try my best to be the best father to our beautiful children and love them just as much as your parents loved you. i know right now, it's hard but you're gonna be okay and so are your parents. i love you and don't forget that" 

I said glancing at her as she looked out the window, i lightly placed my hand that wasn't on the wheel on her thigh and lightly rubbed my thumb up and down her delicate skin.

*A Few Hrs Later 

we've now reached our final destination, i drove into the entrance of the parking lot and looked for a spot. as soon as i found a spot, i parked my car and turned off the engine and took out my keys.

"Are you ready baby girl?" i turn to face her 

she nodded

"Let's go," and just like that, we got out of the car, and walked  hand in hand to the front desk.

Macie's pov 

"Hii, welcome to La springs hospital. how may i help you two?" the front lady of the hospital ask.

"Hii, Do you by any chance.. know what room Austin and Desiree smith are in?" i asked anxiously

"Yes, they are in room 208. May i ask who you are?"she asked nicely

"Of course, i'm their daughter and this right here is my boyfriend" i said pointing at shawn who's standing right behind me 

"Ahh, you must be Macie. Follow me please" She said walking from behind the desk and to the front. 

"We gotta hurry tho" the lady said while speed walking as me and shawn followed

"Okay." 

once we reached the room, i slowly knocked 

"Come in" i heard the familiar voice 

i open the door and was greeted by blake.

"Hey mac lipstick, i'm glad you could make it " he said 

"Anything for the world." i said smiling slightly,"Where are my parents?."

"In here, follow me" blake said walking straight in the room as me and shawn followed behind

As i got inside the room, i see both of their bodies laying  on the beds that are right next to each other. I slowly walk towards my dad since he was right in front of me, laying their and holding my mother's hand in the middle of both their beds.

"Mom, Dad?" i whispered softly

My father slowly opens his eyes and turns to look at me, once he looked at me he soon frowned

"Sweetie, please don't cry. stay strong for mommy an daddy eh?" he says in a groggy voice

A Few Seconds Later 

my mother slowly flutters her eyes and looked at me, then at my father, and then back.

"Honey, you came..." She says ever so gently 

"I did, i wouldn't miss it for the world" i said, and just as i expected i felt a light tear drop sliding down my cheek ever so lightly.

"We love you sweetie, very much" My Father said 

"Very." My mother says while coughing

"I love you both so much" i whisper, and that's when i lost it

i began crying in front of both my parents, i tried to stay strong, not only for me but for them. but i just couldn't do it.

"Oh Dear Lord, Macie-pooh, please don't cry" My father says, trying to calm me down

i put my hand ever so gently on his and held it in my hand, i looked at both him and my mother with tears in my eyes. i started to cry even more when an image of my mother and father taking me to a Taylor swift concert, for the first time. causing me to remember that wonderful memory that i will forever remember.
