Tayvin | Better Than This

8 》 Hospitals

Leah's POV

I was so stupid for trusting Taylor and Adam. I thought that I was safe with them but she was taking me to the same place where my daddy was taken and I don't want to go there. My mummy said that daddy left forever and he went to a hospital before that too. I don't want to go away forever!

I ran down the corridor. I'm small so I could squeeze through peoples legs unlike Taylor so she was far behind me. I saw her start to run after me though. I saw the door and I ran to it as fast as my little legs could. I ran outside and ran down the sidewalk. I saw a park on the other side of the road. There would be good hiding places there like trees and bushes. I started sprinting towards it.

The next thing I saw was black.

Taylor's POV

I was panicking and running as fast as I could after Leah. She had gone outside so I started running down the pavement. There was a lot of commotion on the busy road outside. And then I realised who the centre of all that commotion was.

The little girl which I found in my boyfriend's car. I saw Leah, lying in the middle of a bunch of cars, covered in blood. She was screaming and crying and paramedics had surrounded her. I ran towards her, to get to the little girl I loved so much. A hand reached out and stopped me. It all happened so fast. They wouldn't let me go near her because she had requested for me not to be near her. She was running away from me. Although I was her guardian, they were trying to do everything they could to calm the toddler down. That was what broke my heart the most: the little girl which I loved as if she were my own didn't even want me.

I proceeded to break down there on the pavement. Son enough some paramedics walked over and ushered me into the hospital in a waiting room.

Adam's POV

I got a call from the paramedics saying there had been an accident and that Leah had been hit by a car. I left the studio I had decided to work at for today immediately. I didn't usually work in this Nashville studio, but it belonged to Taylor's label and they said I could use it for the day if I wanted to. I needed to finish a track so I decided to go in.

I got to the hospital and found Taylor alone in a small and private room. She was crying and looked absolutely broken. I ran to her and moved her onto my lap. She buried her face into my chest and sobbed loudly. I rubbed her back and kissed her forehead, trying to get her to calm down. Once she had calmed down a little I decided to ask her what had happened. We had been sitting there for half an hour already.

"I...I I don't know.... She just ran out the room when we w were about t to get her checked out. I found her in the s street. She got hit by a c car!" She stuttered and then broke down once again.

We stayed there in the room for another hour or two. We sat in silence apart from Taylor's cries. I was scared too, but I didn't want to show it.

Leah's POV

It was morning now and I woke in a hospital room. It had been a few days since I had been there. As soon as I woke a doctor walked in and smiled at me. I didn't feel very happy though. Everywhere hurt.

"Good morning Leah." He said.

"Morning." I mumbled in reply. Then they got me ready to leave. I didn't know where I'd go but I didn't want to go to Taylor and Adam. I didn't want to go back to the man either. I wanted to run away but last time I tried it didn't end well. They put me in a car and we drove off. The driver then stopped and Taylor was outside. She picked me up. I cried and screamed and she struggled to hold me. She held me really tight and I could tell she was crying. I was crying too and I was trying to kick her and wriggle free of her grasp.

I heard the door shut and felt the warmth of being inside. I finally broke free of her grasp and ran to the other room. I lay on the sofa and cried.
