*Flashback* Tori's pov

"Ashton?" I asked as his eyes opened. he squinted at the light and turned his head, wincing. Louis and I were sitting next to his hospital bed hoping he would be okay and live through the car accident. The doctor had said that he didn't have very good chances of living.

When he got run over more then half of his ribs broke, puncturing his lungs. His left arm broke and his right leg broke. He has a bad concussion from being thrown into a stop sign next to the car. The doctor said that he had to get his left hand amputated because he had a huge cut on it that would get an infection.

"Yeah?" He croaked. His voice sounded hoarse and was barely audible. I felt bad for him, what happened wasn't his fault. The person driving the car didn't even stop to help him. "What happened?"

I looked back at him shocked. He had stitches everywhere, they hadn't done the amputation yet, they said they would do it when he woke up. His arm was in a cast and so was his leg. There was medical gauze around his torso and there were some blood stains on it.

"You don't remember?" Louis asked leaning forward to see Ashton. His mum and dad were waiting outside talking to the doctors, not knowing that there son was awake. Ashton shook his head, or attempted to before cringing.

"Don't strain yourself," I said motioning him to lay his head back down.

"All I remember is a lot of pain then nothing," he said.

"Does it hurt now?" Louis asked. "The doctors said they put you on pain med-"

"Just a little bit on my hand and on my ribs, but what happened?" Ashton said lifting his left arm up as much as he could.

"Well we don't know everything that happened, but what we do know is a car ran over you...." I trailed off looking at Ashton's facial expression going from calm to completely shocked in a matter of seconds.

"And?"

"And what?"

"What's going to happen to me?"

"The doctor said when you woke up they had to amputate your hand or you would catch an infection," Louis started.

"What?" Ashton practically yelled before bursting into a fit of coughs. His parents came bursting in with the doctor. "Im getting my hand cut off?" He said coughing in between some if the words.

"Now, let me explain things to you," the doctor started.

"Ashton it's going to be okay," his mother soothed him as he was wheeled in the emergency room to get his arm amputated. He swallowed and looked at me and Louis.

"Do you think I will still be able to play football?" He asked Louis. Louis shrugged and looked at Ashton.

"Probably next season when your better," he said.

"See you later baby," his mum said kissing the hand that was going to be amputated.

"Bye mum, bye dad, bye Louis and Tori," he said taking a deep breath. We waved as he went into the emergency room.

Tori's pov

I watched as Louis left the room, I didn't know my feelings for him. Part of me was saying that I loved him and should tell him instead of sending him mixed emotions, the other part of me is saying that I hate him for leaving me, but everyone deserves second chances right? Louis was no exception was he? Why does love have to be so complicated?
