Little Livesy: Time to Grow Up {COMPLETED!}

Chapter 25

*Third Person's P.O.V*

The ambulance soon arrived at the hospital and Teagan was rushed in to be treated, while Aaron joined his worried mother, half-sister and best friend in the waiting room. Charity had agreed to stay at the pub and look after Sabrina, as long as they kept her updated. Not long after Teagan had been bought in, Jacob and Leyla rushed in, after Chas had called them. Even though Jacob and Teagan had broken up, she hoped he would still care about her daughter and much to her delight, he did.

"Where is she? Is she okay?" Jacob asked frantically, tears shimmering in his worried eyes.

"They've taken her into Intensive Care, that's all we know." Aaron said.

"I'm sure she'll be okay, Jakey." Leyla tried to assure her nephew.

Not long after Jacob and Leyla arrived, Cain and Belle burst through the doors. Chas had also called them, assuming Teagan's best friend and favourite uncle should be there.

The seven of them waited and waited in silence for what felt like forever, until one of the nurses from Teagan's room finally passed by. Chas was quick to jump up and demand to know what was wrong with her little girl.

"Your daughter is suffering from anorexia nervosa." The nurse informed them. Everyone froze in shock.

"What?" Chas stared at the nurse as if she were deranged. She must have been if she thought Teagan had anorexia. There was no way she had anorexia. She'd have known if that were the case.

"She's gonna be okay though, right?" Aaron asked. He'd just been sat there, staring at the floor. How could he be so stupid? He thought she'd gotten better!

"We're doing everything we can to bring her blood sugar levels up and make sure her vital organs haven't been severely damaged due to her not eating." The nurse explained, making things seem even scarier.

"When will we be able to see her?" Belle asked.

"She's in a critical way at the moment; she's very weak. I'll be back to inform you once we have more information, but I'm optimistic she'll pull through." The nurse told Teagan's anxious family and friends, before heading back into Teagan's room.

"Anorexia?" Cain was the first the speak up, "Why would she do that to herself?"

"I thought she was better." Aaron mumbled, causing all heads to turn his way.

"You what?" Chas narrowed her eyes at her son, "You knew about this?!"

"I found out a few weeks ago," Aaron began, "I walked in on her changing, saw how skinny she was, and she told me she hadn't been eating, but she begged me not to tell you. I agreed as long as she let me help her. I did, for a couple weeks, until I thought she was better." He explained, before tears gathered in his greyish blue eyes, "I could've stopped this! I should've kept a better eye on her, made sure she was actually eating!"
