*Mentions of Ethan's bike accident*

August

The sound of my phone ringing wakes me up from my nap so I reach over to look at it.

Its Grayson, I slide it open and answer it, excited to hear my boyfriend's voice.

"Baby..." his voice sounds strained and shaken.

"Gray? Baby whats wrong?".

There's a few heavy seconds of silence as Grayson seems to find his words.

"Its Ethan..he....fuck...he got into a motorcycle accident".

"What?" I jump up from my bed even though my legs are shaking "how bad is he?".

Grayson takes a deep breath. "He's injured, a few pretty bad bruises and cuts but the doctors said that its nothing major but I'm just so...".

He can't seem to carry on speaking since he's so upset.

Oh god...

"Can you just come to the hospital please?".

I don't even need to think about it, "I'll be right there baby".

"Thanks bubs".

After hanging up I rush to Ari's room and knock loudly on her door.

"What's the drama?" Ari asks confused when she opens the door.

"Grayson just called to tell me Ethan got into a motorcycle accident and we need to get to the hospital" I explain as steadily as I can even though I'm still shaking with nerves.

I see all the colour drain from Ari's face and her eyes widen, clearly shocked by the news.

"Is...is he..." her voice goes hoarse and she puts her hand to her mouth.

"Gray said its nothing major, just some bad cruises and cuts but he needs us there so lets go!".

Ari practically races past me to the door, stumbling to put on her shoes, her face still froze in an expression of worry.

I throw on a random pair of shoes and my car keys, the two of us then rush outside to get to the car and drive to the hospital.

Ari doesn't say anything for the whole drive and neither do I, both us of far too nervous and scared to talk.

After we've gotten to the hospital and ask for where Ethan is, I see my boyfriend standing in the hall outside what must be the room Ethan is in as he waits for us.

He's running a hand through his hair and I can tell he's been crying due to his puffy eyes and flushed cheeks.

My heart pangs at the sight of him and I run over to him.

He looks up and sees me and he lets out a deep sigh, opening up his arms for me to crash into and we embrace each other in a hug.

"Its okay baby" I whisper in his ear and stroke his hair.

He keeps his face buried in my neck and squeezes my body.

"Where is he? How's he doing?" Ari's words come out in a chaotic blur as she runs past us into the room to see Ethan.

Grayson takes my hand and leads me in there as well, I see Ethan lying in the bed, awake but I can see the deep cuts and bruises.

"Oh my god Ethan" I gasp and walk over to the bed.

"What the fuck happened?" Ari sounds as if she's fighting back tears.

I arch a brow at how worked up she is but ignore it when I hear Ethan explaining what happened.
