Love Interest (A Chandler Riggs FanFiction)

It's Back. (17)

Layla's POV: 

Finally, the trip ended. We were on the plane coming back to Atlanta from Hawaii. It's a far trip, we just got on. At least, I'm comfy, I have on, Chandler's orange tie dye shirt, my high wasted shorts, and my white converse. My hair was just curly and I had on some light makeup. 

We started back filming the day after my mom's wedding in 2 days, Chandler agreed to go with me. I'm excited yet nervous because, he's never seen me in a dress. I had my legs on his lap, he was listening to music, while I was watching The Posession. He would rub my legs every once in a while. 

I slowly drift asleep. 

Chandler's POV: 

The pilot just told us that we are rlanding in 10 minutes. She's sleeping and I don't want to wake her. I plant a ggentle kiss on her lips. She flusters her eyes open and looks at me. She's so beautiful. 

"Are we there yet?" She asks, quietly. 

"Almost." She put her laptop in her bag and pulled her legs off me. I kissed her lips whenever she looked over at me. 

The plane shook as it landed.

"Mom. I'm home!" I screamed, walking into my house. She sat at the table in silence. 

"Honey, Shelby's in the hospital." She said, wiping a tear from her face. 

I ran outside where Andrew's car was just about to pull away. I opened the door and said, 

"Drive me to the hospital." Andrew hit the gasp pedal and drove to the nearest hospital. 

I knew that they wouldn't let me in because visiting hours were over. Unless, I was family. 

Chandler gave me a worried look, I whispered to him, 

"Shelby's in the hospital."

We reached the hospital and got out. Well, I did, and so did Chandler. 

"Babe, you don't have to come with." I said, holding his hand. 

"You're mine and if you're going them, I'm coming with." He said, kissing me before we walked in. 

We reached the front desk. 

"Hi... Who do you need to see?" 

"My sister Shelby." 

"Ok, and you sir?" 

"She's my sister as well." He lied. 

"She's in room 39D in the children's ward. Right up the stairs." She said, pointing to the stairs. I started running for them with Chandler right on my trail. We found her room. 

I burst through the door to see her there, on her phone with an IV in her arm. 

"Shelby." I said, coming through the curtain. She dropped a tear as I walked over to her bed and hugged her. I cried into the hug. We just sat there for a moment before pulling away. Shelby noticed Chandler. 

"Why'd you bring him here? I look a mess." She said, messing with her fingers. 

"He's seen worse. He's seen me with bed head." I laughed, wiping away a tear. 

"They're giving me the medicine again..." She said, dropping a tear. 

"Do you want me to do it?" I asked, knowing what she wanted. 

She nodded. 

"When?" 

"Before the wedding. I'll be getting out before then. I've been in here for a week." She said, making me angry that no one told me. 

"Ok." I said, hugging her again. I promised her that I wouldn't leave.

"It's getting late. You need to sleep." He said, I've been holding her hand for the past 3 hours, just staring at her blankly. 

Chandler sat in the corner chair. I finally let go of her hand and walked over to him. I climbed on his lap and straddled him while hiding my face in his shoulder. 

I shook as I cried hard into his shoulder, careful not to wake up Shelby who was sound asleep. 

He rubbed my back, and whispered. 

"Shh, baby, don't cry. Shh." Which made me cry more. I finally stopped and fell asleep.
