Tyler's POV:

"Shane, I'm so sorry. I didn't want you to get hurt." I said, holding an unconscious Shane. We were driving like we were in a high speed chase. We already called the police and told them what was going on. When we got to the hospital, the police and a whole slew of nurses, including Robert were waiting for us. The nurses took Shane from my arms while we waited in the waiting room with the police. I was holding onto Ethan, crying my heart out, Jack and Mark was standing over us. I really couldn't believe that this happened.

"Tyler.. you have to be strong for Shane... he needs us to be there for him.. " Ethan tried to comfort.

"I know but I just can't stand to see the little guy in pain.. you two are my whole world and I can't stand to see either of you in pain.." I responded. It was true, without them, I don't think I could have lived this long.

"Even in this hard time, you two are way too cute." Jack said. I smiled just a little. Jack always knew what I say to make me feel better.

Three hours later

I looked at the door one final time before Robert came out. My eyes lit up and I stood up as he made his way over to us, but something didn't feel right. I couldn't make out his expression. I grabbed Ethan's hand, nervous of what happened to Shane.

"Look guys. There's no easy way of saying this, so I'm going to come out with it. He's got third degree burns on 50% of his body. Not only that, the crash has but him in a coma and I'm going to be honest. Odd are he won't pull through. We're trying everything we can, but that's not much. All you guys can do is be with him, and hopefully hearing your voices will pull him out of it. I'll be praying for you guys." By the end of it, I completely broke down. Ethan grabbed me before I could hit the ground. I couldn't stop crying. Robert gave me a hug and whispered.

"If he pulls through, I don't want to see you guys in here again. You're such an amazing family. You guys don't deserve what's happening to you."

Ethan's POV:

Tyler isn't handling the news very well, but Robert said something to him that helped him calm down some. After Tyler was ready, the four of us walked into Shane's room. Now it's my turn to lose it. The sight in front of me reminded me of when Tyler tried to kill himself with all the tubes coming out of him. Tyler held me as we inched closer to his bed. All I could do was hold his hand and cry.
