Part 19 "You're really pretty."

~Liv's POV~
"Liv you need to eat something." Luke says next to me.

"I'm fine."

"It's been a whole day since you last ate."

"I'm aware."

"Excuse me the family of Calum Hood." A nurse says making all of us spring to our feet.

"That's us." Joy says.

"Only immediate family." She says making the boys and girls sit down.

"Liv it's okay." David says looking at me.

"Also his friends." The nurse says reading a note.

"That is us." Luke says walking after the nurse.

The hallways just seem to get longer and longer. This bleak hospital makes me feel sick. I have always hated hospitals. They only bring sadness and terror.

"Now he is in a coma." The nurse says. "So you guys have to be quiet." She continues.

"Can we all go in?" I ask looking at her.

"Are you his girlfriend?" She ask.

"Yes." I say looking at her.

"Yes, but don't let anyone see you go in because I'll get in trouble." She says walking away.

All of us quickly walk in the room as I turn around and see Calum in a hospital bed.

"My baby." Joy says hugging me.

"I know Joy." I say walking her to a chair.

"I'm going to have to go to work." David says from the door.

"Go ahead I will call you when he wakes up." Joy says kissing her husband.

Ring ring

"Hello?" Joy says into her phone.

"I can't right now."

"No you don't understand." She continues.

"Yes sir." She says hanging up the phone.

"I've got to leave or my boss will fire me." Joy says hugging me. "Call me if anything changes." She says before walking out the door.

I quickly take a seat next to Calum's bed and take his hand in mine.

"How could this happen?" I ask to myself.

"Excuse me miss I have to check his vitals." A nurse says walking to his monitor.

"Okay." I say looking at Calum. He has a tube in his nose and wires all around his body. He doesn't even look like he needed surgery except on his forehead. He has a few scratches and bruises on his face but other than those he looks fine.

"Are you guys together?" The nurse ask turning to me.

"Yes ma'am." I smile looking at the love of me life.

"That's cute. You guys are going to get married one day I can see it." She smiles before leaving the room.

"You guys really are." Crystal smiles.

"Thanks Crys." I say smiling a grim smile at her.

~Calum POV~
There is a constant beeping in my ear. What the heck is that. I go to cover my ears with my hands but my arms won't move. Am I tied down? I try and peel my eyes open, but they won't budge. Where the hell am I?

"I just love him so much." A beautiful voice says. The person squeezes my hand. I quickly squeeze back.

"Oh my god Cal!" The person says sounding overly excited.
