After The Surgery

The surgery ended up being twelve hours long, because apparently Cal's heart stopped beating and she stopped breathing about halfway through it. I calmed myself down before the doctors brought her in, but completely lost it when she was rolled into the room, with a bunch of random shit coming out of everywhere, and a breathing tube basically shoved down her throat. I havent stopped crying and its been almost an hour since the surgery ended. I couldnt even tell it was her, almost her whole face was bandaged up along with her legs and torso, the only things she didnt break was her arms. The door opened which caught my attention, "Whoa haley are you- oh my God." Ethan started but cut himself off when he saw Cal, "I hate you!" I yelled at Grayson, not even paying attention to Ethan.

Grayson's P.O.V.

"This is all your fault!" Haley screamed at me as she stomped over to where I was standing. "I-I know." I choked out. "She fucking loved you Grayson, and all you fucking did was let her down! Even if she makes it out of this she'll probably still come running back to you! Because you were all she's ever wanted, did you know that?" She asked with tears coming down her face. I nodded as I cried and let her yell at me, "I dont think you do. Cause little popstar boy only thinks of him fucking self!" She yells in my face, "We wouldnt be in this situation if you werent so self centered and thought about other peoples feelings! Shes going to die because of you! Because you got mad and didnt control what you said, shes dead. I hate you! I hate you! I hate you!" She yelled as she punched my chest, and I just stood there and let her, cause she was completely right. "Im so sorry Haley." I cried as she broke down in my arms. "I dont want her to die!" She sobbed as she slowly slid down to the floor and me going down with her. "Sixteen years Grayson. Sixteen fucking years Ive known her, and she was there for me at every second, she was the one who kept me sane. I-I cant be without her." She cried, "Sh-she's going to be okay, Haley." I try to comfort her, "Grayson look at her! She's not going to be okay! She barely made it through the God damn surgery! Stop having false hope and be fucking realistic for once!" She yelled at me again, and stood up, "I cant even be in here anymore." She said wiping her eyes as she stomped out of the room. I look over to Ethan and he's sitting at the chair next to Cal, looking like he was going to cry, "E I-" I started but he cut me off, "Can I just have a minute please? With her?" He asked and I nodded and left the room, deciding I should probably find Haley to make sure she's okay.

Ethan's P.O.V.

I looked at Cal's lifeless looking body in front of me and I sighed as a couple of tears fell down my face, I took her small fragile hand in mine, "It hasnt been the same without you." I started, "The three days you and Haley were gone were completely awful, Gray and I didnt really leave the house cause we didnt have anything to do, and we didnt really want to find anything to do. Its funny how we've only known you for a couple of months, but we got so attached to you so quick." I smiled as more tears fell from my eyes, "I want to say that everythings going to be okay, but its just not realistic. Haley and Grayson are already fighting, and your mom said she'd work more so she could pay off your hospital bills if you made it out, that poor woman hasnt slept it two days, and your brother, just.... stopped talking. He hasnt talked to anyone since you left, because no one told him where you were, all he has heard is that you might die. He didnt really react he just left. I- Ive just been trying to keep everyone together, but its not working at all, Cal we need you. I get yesterday out of my fucking head, its on repeat and I hate it. Im not even stable, and its been a day, every little thing has been making me angry or sad, but I act like Im perfectly fine, when im not, but no one can help me cause theyre not you, youd always do weird shit to make me laugh, but you cant do that right now, and youre the person I need the most." I leaned my head onto her hand, my tears were falling slower, but they were still going, "I know you're dating Grayson and it would be wrong, but Im too much of a pussy to say this to you when youre awake but Cal, I love you, and I need you. I know if you were awake you'd either be giggling or saying some stupid joke to make me feel better since I know I cant have you." I laughed and sniffled, but then continued, "But I just don't know what Im going to do without you being around me all the time saying your jokes or doing weird crap, or evsn cuddling with me to make me feel better when im down. Im just begging you to fight, and make it through this, because im not the only one who needs you right now. Haley and Grayson both need you. But just please fight through this, I know you can. I love you." I say and put my hand on her bandaged cheek, the heart monitor started to beep a little faster and I smiled, she heard me.
