While In Oregon....
Lane's POV
While having a great time in Oregon, I get the one thing I thought I rid of long ago, the nightmares of my accident. It started the second night we were here.
2 Nights Ago...
"Niall, come on bud, let's take you to Liam's Room. You're going to sleep in there tonight. Ok?"
"Okay, dada."
"Let's go then!"
"Prince Niall has arrived forna sleepover!" I chanted when I entered Liam's room.
"Ok, see you tomorrow Lane?"
"Sleep well, Liam. If you're good for Liam, I'll buy you some candy tomorrow. Sleep well, bud."
"Ok dada. Goodnight."
"Goodnight." I say after I kiss Niall's forehead and quickly exit the room.
"You -yawn- ready -yawn- for -yawn- bed -yawn- Lane?" Niall asked me between yawns.
"Yea. Let's go to bed."
"Yea, Good-"
Niall is too funny, he goes to say something and instead falls asleep. I was just thinking of the things we could for the rest of the 4 days, that are appropriate fir a 2 and 1/2 year old. I was then thinking of how I had MY Niall back and then I fell in to a peaceful slumber.
Lane's Dream
2 Years Before Niall's Adoption
I am just riding along the same old road as always coming home late from my shift at Aeropostale and I am sitting at the light. I go on the green and get almost home when a drunk driver pulls out right in front of me, I slam on the brakes, throwing me from my motorcycle, into the back quarter panel of this guys SUV. Then, he drives off. Then, it fades to black.
It comes back in the hospital Trauma Room, where I see my own body laying on the table, about to shocked yet again. 6 times they shocked my heart. A seventeen year old boy having his heart shocked 6 times. The monitor comes back, but barely. I am currently in critical condition. The right side of my face crushed, bones sticking out of my legs.
"NOOO!! STOP IT!! WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING TO ME???"
"Lane, what's wrong?? I can't help you if you don't tell me what the hell is going on. Tell me, please."
"My" -hyperventilating-
"Here. Deep breaths, deep breaths."
"Thank you."
"You're welcome, now, what's wrong? Your hair is sticking to your forehead, and you're covered in sweat."
"My accident. It came back to me."
"What accident?"
"When I was 17. I was in a bad motorcycle accident. Just like Harry, but worse. I survived, but barely. I've never ridden one since. That's why you will NEVER ride, or own one. There dangerous. People stop giving a shit about others. They don't look out for them anymore. I still have the bike. It's in storage. It's a reminder never to ride again."
"Oh my god, Lane. I never knew. Is that why your tattoo on your side is uneven??"
"I got that when I 16. My parents found that, especially since I did it without their permission. They found it a month later when my mom walked in when I was shirtless. It's been uneven ever since."
"Oh, the story behind the tattoo is kinda funny. But, then sad."
"I got it redone on the opposite side a year later. That's why there's two. I've never been able to part with the uneven one. It was my first."
"I always wondered why there is two of the exact same thing. That's why."
"Yea."
"How many tattoos do you have anyway?? I've never counted."
"20. Most of them mean something. Others, I just wanted. Like this one '11/27/29' that was the date my grandmother was born. And the one next to it, '2/18/32', that was the date my grandfather was born. And the '4/24/13', that was the only time I was elected to my Student Council Exec Board. And the '5/8/14', I was inducted to my school's National Junior Honor Society. It all means something to me. And '6/30/18', Niall's date of birth. And the newest '9/13/93', your date of birth. I also have '2/2/15', the day my brother first got signed to a model agency in LA. I also have the first day I met the boys, but not you, you weren't there, '11/9/16', that was for my 16th birthday."
"Do you want to go back to sleep?"
"No! I won't be sleeping for the rest of the night."
We spent the rest of the night just talking. All night. I never had that dream again.
Sorry for the late update!! Anyway, the first thing from Lane's past. Like, Comment, and Vote!
