'ASTON LOOK OUT!!!!'

...........................................

'NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO'

'Amelia......HELP ME! SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME....oh god Amelia hold on baby we're going to be ok....CALL AN AMBULANCE....please.....SOMEBODY....Amelia...stay with me Amelia.....'

' Sir I need you to stay calm!'

'Is she breathing? Breathe come on Amelia breathe....please....oh god' I gasped !...I'm loosing you....don't you leave me Amelia, don't you leave me.....stay with me...' I said grabbing hold of her hand

'Come on let's get you out of the car'

'No I can't leave her'

'sir your head is bleeding a lot, we need to get you checked'

I let someone pull me out of the smoking car whilst some paramedics saw to Amelia. she was just sitting all crouched up in the passengers seat of the car, completely lifeless, my worst nightmare playing out in front of me. I was held back tightly by a male member of the emergency services whilst I watched in horror as they used a defibrillator on her, shocking her body.

'Is she going to die?' I sobbed in shock

'There looking after her'

'YOU DIDNT ANSWER MY QUESTION!'

'Sir they will do all they can..."

"Oh god...please...'

I was pulled into an ambulance whilst they whisked Amelia off into another one. A tube sticking down her throat and someone bagging her as she couldn't breathe on her own.

The ambulance took me to the hospital to get my head stitched up, all the time just wanting to find Amelia.

......................................................

*4 hours later*

'The CT scan showed your girlfriend has inter cranial haemorrhaging, we purposely keep patients with traumatic brain injuries in a coma in order to calm their systems and allow the brain time to heal itself whilst the swelling goes down, and then we slowly wean them off it'

'So she could die?' I cried

'Were going to do everything we can' the doctor smiled walking off

Discharged 4 hours after coming in with nothing more than cuts, bruises and a few steristrips, I now found myself clinging onto Amelia's life. She took the full impact of the lorry that crashed into us, and now she was in some sort of coma. I didn't really understand what was going on.

I had no choice but to call Amelia's dad and step mum, however as far as they were concerned we had broken up and her dad was probably going to hate me. But if this was really the end, she would have wanted her dad with her, I couldn't risk it, not with him being half way across the world. Clinging Amelia's phone tightly in my hand. I looked through her contacts to find her dad's number...

'Amelia...how are you darling....' Her father answered

'Um...hi Mr Cooper...this is Aston...' I breathed heavily

'Aston...the same Aston that cheated on my daughter!' He roared 'why do you have Amelia's phone...?'

'Mr cooper....Amelia's been involved in an accident, she needs you over her' I swallowed

'What sort of accident...'

'Well, we made up last night and see were driving back to mine when a lorry crashed into us....'

'Oh my god is she ok?'

'No..' I breathed 'she's got some sort of brain injury and they've put her in a coma until the swelling goes down, I don't really know what's going to happen but I know she needs you' I cried

'Ill get the next flight over....which hospital...'

'St Mary's...do you know it...'

'Yes I'll be there as soon as I can, thanks for letting me know Aston'
