Chris' pov

After her bloody lips kissed mine, she's whispers "I...love you more,"  then her eyes slowly shuts, I kept my hands over her bleeding stomach, trying to stop the bleeding. I shook my head.

"Nononononono, come back, baby, please don't go! I'm gonna get some help, you're gonna be okay," I struggled for my phone in my pocket and immediately dialed 911 and called for help, then I picked up her body and held her close to me, kissing her head.

"It's going to be okay, just stay with me, please stay with me, don't go, it's not your time yet, I love you too fucking much to lose you again..."

5 minutes later the ambulance rushed in and took her away. Someone had obviously shot her through the window, considering the glass on the floor. But was the suspect really aiming for her...or me? My palms and clothes were stained with her blood. I rushed to Ryan's house and banged on the door until he answered.

"Stop bangin-WHOA WHY ARE COVERED IN BLOOD, CHRIS?!"

"IT'S LIZ! Call everyone and tell them that she's hurt and she's in the hospital!! I'm gonna go and see her!"

At that, I hopped in my car and rushed to the hospital.

As soon as I got to the hospital, I asked about Liz and the clerk said that she's in thr ER. I began to pace back and forth. Everyone  in the lobby stared at me as if I had killed someone. Maybe because of the blood. Or because I'm different from them. Or both. Either way, I didn't care, I was too worried about Liz. The one girl who makes me laugh, I feel loved and accepted when I'm with her, and she accepted me and flaws. I don't know what I'd do if she died. I couldn't live with myself. Everyone that me and Liz knew came barbading through the doors, a swarm of questions were being thrown into my face.

"What happened?!"

"Is she dead"

"Is she okay?!"

"Is it too late?!"

I screamed"shut the Fuck up!!". Everyone got quiet. I told them everything. From the time I got to her house, to the time she gave me a kiss like it was our last. We were all wiping tears this time. Maria walked up to me and slapped me.

"How could you cheat on that sweet girl, Chris?! All she ever cared about was you. She loved you! And you cheated on her?! You may have apologized, but that will forever put a scar on her heart. She's gone through so much...I'm very disappointed in you..."

I nodded in agreement. I deserved that slap. We all sat down, and waited for hours. Anxiety and irritation took over all of us. We soon got pissed at each other for the smallest things ever.

"Josh, scoot over you're in my personal space, man!!"

"All of you are fucking annoying!"

"Chris and Devin, stop being so fucking loud!"

Finally, the doctor came in the lobby, he was bloody too. Much more blood than me. He spoke.

"Are you Elizabeth's family?"

We all nodded.

"H-how is she...?" I nervously asked.

He shook his head, my heart dropped on to the floor and shattered.

"What's wrong with her?!" Josh asked.

"She's lost a lot of blood, we gave her a blood transfusion, but she's going to be in recovery for a while. The bullet must've went straight in and out, it tore some important tissue. She's in really bad shape. We almost lost her, luckily she's alive, you can go see he-"

We all shoved passed the doctor and went up to her room. When we got to her room, she was fast fast asleep, you could see patches of blood through her gown, needles were in her arms, and an oxygen over her face. Maria tugged own my arm, covering her mouth, she looked away and cried. We all slowly surrounded her bed.

"Do you think she can hear us?" James quietly asked.

"Well, she's a deep sleeper, so I'm guessing not," I responded, and lightly grabbed her hand, kissing it, and sat next to her bedside. Maria lightly ran her thumb across Liz's pale, cold face, a tear fell from Maria's face, landing on Liz's cheek.

"Even when she's asleep, and covered in needles, and blood she's still beautiful," I sighed.

The guys just stared at her.

Beep...beep...beep...beep..

Heart monitor went steady, then her hand squeezed mine tightly, her eyes shot open, and she began breathing heavy, her monitor beeped faster.

Beepbeepbeepbeep...

We all tried to calm her down, her body was shaking, and she screamed, her eyes rolled to the back of her head, she finally took a long gasp, then her body lied back down and her eyes slowly closed.

"Oh my god...guys...her heart monitor!!" Devin pointed out.

Beeeeeeeeeeep...

"NONONONO, SOMEONE GET A NURSE OR SOMETHING!!" I screamed out, I tried shaking her, hoping it would wake her back up, a bunch of nurses came rushing in, demanding us to get out so they could try to get her back. We all screamed and cried in the hallway, me and Maria were on our knees, asking to come back in, we were all making a big scene. Had she died? Ishook my head at the thought of her possible passing. Thirty minutes later, the nurses came back into the hall. They said they got her back, but she fell into a coma, due to lack of blood, the transfusion wasn't enough for her, and they wouldn't have anymore blood packs for another week.

We all surrounded her bed again, crying, talking about the good times we've had with her, and laughed at all of the times she's made us laugh and had a good time together. Eventually everyone except me, left. I held her hand throughout the night.

I got a text, it was from Megan....
