Laine Hardy imagines and preferences

Death in the Family.

-Laines pov-

I woke up to a phone buzzing rapidly.
I rolled over to see whose phone it was.

It was y/n's. I looked at the caller ID.

'Best friend' is calling. So I answered it, I didn't want to wake y/n up she looks so comfortable.

"Hello?" I said quietly.

"He- llo?" I heard a voice say.

"Y/b/n?" Her voice was thick and raspy, like she had been crying.

"La-ine wheres y/n?" She asked breaking down completely.

"She's asleep right here next to me? Why? What's wrong?"

Y/b/n is like my little sister. We have become a lot closer since me and y/n started dating years ago.

"I- um will you wake her up. Its an emergency" she said trying to stop crying long enough to talk.

"Yeah hold on."

-- Your pov--

I woke up to laine shaking me.

"Baby wake up. Its an emergency"

"What time is it?" I asked sitting up groggily.

"Uh 3:45 am. Here" he said handing me the phone.

"Hello?" I asked.

"Y- y/n" I heard my best friend whimper over the phone.

Suddenly I didn't feel tired anymore. I looked at laine. He shrugged at me.

"What? What's wrong?"

" you need to get the hospital. Like now." She said taking a deep breath.

"What why?" Im confused.

"Its your brother, something happen. Y-you just need to get here. Your mom and d-ad are waiting for you"

"What happen to him?" I had tears in my eyes as I got up and changed into decent clothes.

I looked at laine.

"Get dressed, we have to go like now" I whispered.

"What do you mean by something?" I questioned

"He was riding the 4- wheeler in the back. My dad told him that it wasn't ready to be driven. And..."

She paused to cry.

"And the something happen and the 4 -wheeler blew up. Your brother went flying and.. he stopped breathing. He's in critical condition. So hurry and get here. Be safe tho" she hung up.

At this point I had tears running down my face.

The thought that I could lose my brother today makes me sick.

We have always been close. He was my best friend growing up. Now I couldn't imagine losing him.

I started balling. I put my back against the wall and slid down so I wouldn't fall.

Laine came down the stairs.

"Oh baby" he said sitting next to me holding me close.

-- laines pov--

Y/n was a mess.

"Get dressed we have to go now" she whispered with tears in her eyes and walked down stairs. I put on a shirt and a hoodie and my shoes and walked downstairs. I looked over to see y/n leaning on the wall sitting on the floor crying.

"Oh baby" I pulled her close to me.

"What happen?" I asked.

"Its.. its bub" she said looking up at me.

"He's in critical condition and they think he's not gonna make it through the night." She cried harder.

My heart is breaking.

Not only do I hate seeing my baby girl cry.  But me and her brother is very close.

"Lets go baby girl" I said helping her up and helping her to my truck.

- at the hospital-

Y/n has been quiet the whole time we have been here. She is sitting the corner staring at the floor.

Her parents came up and hugged me.

"Anything new?" I asked them.

"Nothing yet" her dad said.

Y/b/n is trying to talk to her but she's not paying any mind to her.

I walked over and sat in the empty chair next to them.
I took her hand.

"Its gonna be okay. You aren't alone baby. I'm here no matter what" I said to her.

The chaplin came in.

"Well, his heart stopped and he quit breathing again. They are doing CPR as we speak. But the odds aren't looking that great. I'm so sorry."

About 30 minutes later a doctor came in.

"Well as you know we have been doing CPR for about 30 minutes. We usually stop at 5. At this point there's not much else we can do. We can put him on a vent, but his brain has gone to long without oxygen. Even if we could get his heart to start beating again.. he would be what you may know as brain dead. I'm so sorry."

"What?" Y/n said standing up.

"You're a fucking doctor. You're supposed to SAVE YOUR PATIENTS. YOU WAS SUPPOSED TO HELP HIM! How the hell did this happen?!"

I grabbed her hand and tried to pull her back down. She looked at me anger overwhelming her. She took her hand from me.

Tears running down her face.

"Your job is to save patients. To improve the quality of life. He's a human being with a family that loves him. Well. You failed your job today" she said looking at the doctor and walking out the door slamming it.

"I got this" I said getting up.

I followed her..

"Hey. Its not his fault. The doctors did everything they could. You didn't have to go off on him like that."

"Shut up laine okay ? You think I give a fuck about his feelings? My brother is dead. And you think I give a fuck about some doctor." She asked

"He's not dead yet. You need to go help make a decision. A vent or no vent" I said telling her the truth

We went back in.

"I think we should put him on a vent" her parents said.

Y/n looked at them shaking her head.

"No. That's not what he wanted"

"But he could still have a chance to live."  Her mom said.

"No! He's dead mom! He's already dead. There is no chance of him coming back! He already fucking dead. All the vent will do is make him breathe."

" okay  no vent then" they all agreed

I hugged my girl as she said her goodbyes to her brother.
