Tris pov

Tobias and I rush into the hospital room where Liam is at the moment trying to be brought back to life.

We got to the hospital just as he was flatlining.

There was an accident. My dad and him were on there way to get ice cream. They dropped my mom off at home so she could get ready with games and toys for when Liam returned home.

Right now all the police know is that a drunk driver cut them off the road, flipping their car. They were wearing seat belts but the impact was too much. Now my little boy is flat lining on a hospital bed.

"Liam" I scream dropping to the floor as the doctors continue to do compressions.

"Get her out of here" a doctor says and I'm being carried out by Tobias and Zeke. I turn to Tobias and fall into his arms.

Zeke and all of our friends came rushing to the hospital because they knew we would need the support no matter the outcome.

My parents and Tobias's parents stand in the corner crying.

Tobias holds me close and runs his fingers threw my hair.

"It's okay baby, it's okay" he says trying to be strong for me but I know he's crying.

I hear all movement stop in Liam's hospital room and the monitor gets shut off.

"Time of death, 10:24" I hear someone say and I go numb.

This can't be happening. Not my baby. Not my beautiful, healthy baby boy.

I run out of Tobias's arms and into the room.

Nurses try to stop me but I push by them.

"I'm so sorry for your loss" a doctor says as I hug my baby. He's cold and feels empty. I push his hair out of his face and kiss his head.

"Mommy loves you so much. You're okay, don't be scared" I say to him and I just continue to cry.

Tobias leans down next to us and tears run down his face.

"Goodbye munch. Daddy loves you" He says kissing Liam's hand.

My mom walks in and is a complete mess.

"Beatrice, sweetie" she says hugging me

"Your dad is gone" she adds and I become a mess.

I start to feel dizzy and I feel myself becoming unbalanced. I take a seat on a chair nearby and lay against it as I cry.

"I made your favorite" Christina says holding a plate of French toast as I lay in bed.

It's been a week since Liam and my fathers death. We have their funerals today, I'm not ready to do it.

"Thanks Chris but I'm not hungry" I whisper to her

"Everyone said you have to eat. Tobias says you haven't eaten in days" she says

"Could you just tell Tobias to come here. I need to talk to him" I say

Tobias has been dealing with family members and people who come by with food platters and to say their condolences. I haven't been out of the room much and I feel bad for having Tobias deal with it all.

"I was told to come talk with you" he says sitting next to me and I hold his hands.

"I'm sorry" I say as tears run down my face

"I'm sorry I haven't been there as your partner. I haven't helped you through this at all. You have been so strong for the both of us. I am so sorry" I say to him and he lays my head on his chest.

"It's okay baby, I know you're hurting. I can be strong for the both of us." he says gently and I look up at him and peck his lips.

"Today is going to be such a hard day" I say

"Not if we get through it together" he says and I lay my head on his shoulder

"Now please eat the breakfast Christina made you. You have to get some food in you" he adds so I grab the plate and carry it down stairs with Tobias.

"Morning sleeping beauty" Zeke says pouring me a cup of coffee.

"Thank you" I say taking a hold on it.

I take a few bites of my French toast then give the rest to Tobias.

"Thank you guys, for everything" I say to all my friends who are here. Helping out.

"I'm going to call my mom" I say to Tobias and he nods.

My mom hasn't been doing good. We never thought something like this would happen.

The conversation is short and quick. The last few days I have been locked in my room but I have been calling her to make sure she's doing good. Evelyn, Tobias's mom, has been keeping a good eye on her.

I go back to my room and grab my towel to get in the shower. As the water is heating up I strip of my clothes and step in.

The warm water runs down my body and it feels refreshing. I close my eyes as the water droplets send a waterfall through my hair.

Without even noticing Tobias walk into the bathroom I feel him step in the shower and wrap his arms around me.

I lay my head back onto him and he runs a hand up and down the front of my body.

"Sorry for just jumping in your shower but you looked so beautiful, I couldn't resist" he says and I turn to face him.

"Our son is gone" I whisper laying my head on his chest as he holds me.

"I know" he whispers back sadly.

"What do you say we go somewhere just you and me this weekend? Anywhere we want. I think we could use some space away from reality" he says playing with my hair and I nod.

"That sounds perfect" I say looking up at him

"How did I get so lucky to have you" I add and he chuckles

"I ask myself that question everyday when i see you" He says holding my face and I lean up and kiss him.

I quickly pull away and he rest his lips on my shoulder. He slowly travels to my neck and I sigh pulling away.

"We should start getting ready" I say and he nods scrubbing soap onto my body.

Short, sad chapter, I'm sorry, but if you have any new ideas for this story let me know me know I would love to hear them
