Maya:

"Mam you can not go in there!" A nurse stopped me as I was about to run down the hall to the room he was held in. I was getting really impatient with the people holding me back from him.

I need to see him!

Just before I wanted to punch and break through the people I heard Aaliyah calling me from down the hall, tears streaming down her face as she came closer. "Aaliyah!" I cried out and pushed the people away from me as I ran down the hall to her.

I swooped her up in a hug and she cried onto my shoulder as I cried onto hers. 

She pulled out of my embrace, grabbing my hand and pulling me with her down the hall to the room. My heart dropped at the sight of him.

Tubes, needles, machines and bandages connected to him and all over him. He looks broken. 

"Shawn." I breathed out, sounding more like a whisper rather than a call. My heart dropped and my tears were just uncontrollable. I ran up to him and took his hand in mine. 

He needs to be okay. He just needs to.

I can't lose him to.

Shawn:

I heard her coming in and my heart leaped in my chest knowing she's here for me. She's here now.

"This is all my fault." She cried out and rested her head on my hand as she held it captured in hers. She's probably sitting down next to me. 

No Maya baby, this is not your fault. Please don't blame yourself. If anything this is my fault because I was the one letting you down and I broke myself. 

I tried to squeeze her hand, but it failed. Why can't I just wake up! I want her to know that I'm still here jut locked up inside of my own body.

"Maya darling." My mom's voice came through and I felt Maya's hand slipping out of mine. "We're going home. You coming?" She asked Maya but she took a while to reply. "No. I'm staying here with him." she said and I smiled on the inside. Thanks baby, I really need you with me.

I'm so sorry for what I did and the things I said. Please don't leave me, I never meant to hurt you. I love you. "I'm not leaving him alone. I need him to wake up." She cried and I  just wanted to get up, pull her into a tight hug and kiss her. 

I heard the footsteps going out of the room and Maya came back to me. "Shawn. Can you hear me?" She whispered. Yes. "Please wake up baby. I need you to wake up for me Shawn." She whispered again. Her sniffing still present. 

I'm trying Maya. I really am.

She cupped my face and ran her hand through my hair. I love that feeling and I missed it so much. She's back home and I can't even see her. "Shawn?" She questioned. Probably seeing the tear escaping my eye and rolling down the side of my face. 

She wiped it away and kissed my cheek. "I love you." She said and I felt her laying down beside me. "Miss you can't stay in the bed with the patient." The nurse said. No. Let her stay please. "Please." Maya asked and I heard a sigh. "Okay." The nurse said.

"Shawn. I'm a graduate from college. Now I can work for you full time." She said softly, caressing my cheek with the pad of her thumb. I could hear her voice breaking at the end of the sentence. 

I'm so proud of you Maya love. I wouldn't want anyone else to be my backstage manager other than you. I love you.
