Meant to Be... l.h.

15

"Ashton please don't." I beg as he pulls into the hospital emergency entrance.

"Skylar you need to."

"Ashton, please." I beg crying. He knows I can't do this. Everyone got out of the car.
"No! Guys no please!"

"Luke get her please." Ashton says. Luke looks at me and tries to pick me up bridal style.

"Luke no! Please Luke! Don't do this to me! Please!" I'm a sobbing mess.

"I'm sorry Rose." He whispers picking me up. I'm screaming and hitting his chest but he continues to walk me into the emergency room where a nurse immediately rushes over to Liam and I.

"What's the problem?" She asks approaching Ashton.

"He hurt his fingers and his head is bleeding quite a lot and she hurt her foot and lip is busted. She also has a big fear of hospitals from... past incidents." Ashton explains to the nurse while I'm still yelling at Luke. She signals for us to follow.

Luke's PoV

I hate making her like this. I hate that she is mad at me. But she needs to get her foot checked. She hates me and it's my fault. We follow the nurse who takes Skylar in one room and Liam in the one right next door. She says she will help Liam first to give Skylar time to calm down. Once the nurse leaves I sit on the bed with the crying Skylar on my lap. She continues to cry into my chest with her hands gripping my shirt tightly as I rub her back soothingly.

"Skylar look at me please." I beg but she doesn't move. I grab her chin and tilt it up so she is looking me in the eye.
"You are going to be okay. Nothing bad is going to happen. They are just going to look at your foot and lip and then we can leave." I say.

"W-wheres Liam? A-and Harry, Niall, Calum and Louis!" She asks looking around the room nervously. This is where Ashton steps in.

"They are Right next door. The doctor is helping Liam." He explains.

"No! THEY NEED TO BE HERE! WHAT IF WHAT HAPPENED LAST TIME HAPPENS TO THEM?! WE NEED TO GET LIAM OUT OF THERE!" She yells with more tears pouring down her face.

"I'm right here Sky." She looks at the door to see Liam along with harry, Niall, Calum and Louis.

"Oh my god. You're okay." She breathes out. Liam walks over to us and pulls her into a hug.

"Of course I'm okay. Don't worry about me I'm fine." He says calming her down a little bit.

"W-what did they do?" She asks nervously.

"The doctor came in and confirmed my fingers are broken. He wrapped them up and it didn't even hurt too much!" He says showing her his taped up fingers.
"As of my head." He says pointing to above his eyebrow.
"No concussion and 2 stitches. Those hurt a little." He says with a chuckle.

"That's it?" She asks still with the nervous tone. He nods.

"That's it." As he says that the doctor walks in and Skylar visibly tenses. I wrap my arms around her so she thinks I'm comforting her in a hug, but in reality I'm holding her down so she doesn't try to sprint out of here on her bad foot.

"Hi, you must be Skylar, I'm Dr. Kennedy." She says extending her hand out to Skylar. Skylar hesitantly shakes it making all the boys smile.
"Okay so we are going to start with your lip." She says pulling out a flashlight and shining it on her lips.
"It doesn't look deep enough for stitches, but it will probably be puffy later. Just take some over the counter ibuprofen for the swelling." Skylar nods.
"Alright now can you point your toes." Skylar shakes her head no.
"Okay, I'm going to touch your foot and you tell me if it hurts okay?" Skylar nods and grabs my hand. I happily hold her tiny hand in mine and rub circles in the back of it with my thumb as the doctor placed her hands on her foot. For the first few seconds Skylar was okay but she winced and squeezed my hand when Dr. Kennedy touched the top of it.
"I'm sorry sweetie. Okay, it looks like you have a hairline fracture on the top of your foot. Nothing too serious but you will need to wear a boot for about a week or two depending on if it still hurts. Take it off to shower and sleep and ice it while you sleep." She explains placing a thick black boot on Skylars foot. Skylar nods in understanding.
"Now I'm going to give you a pair of crutches to use for the first few days but after about five days, you can walk with the boot without the crutches." She pulls out a pair of tall metal crutches and hands them to Skylar. I grab her waist as she stands up and places the crutches under her armpits. Dr. Kennedy tells her to try them out and she surprisingly did pretty good. After a little practice, Dr. Kennedy turns to all of us.
"Now it's your guys' responsibility to take care of her." She says pointing to the boys and I.
"Crutches take a lot of energy and that boot is heavy, there are more than enough of you to carry her around if she needs it. I also suggest someone staying with her considering she should take it easy." We all thank her for her help and she leaves the room.

"You did great Skylar." Ashton says happily. Skylar still looks pissed.

"I still don't like doctors." She mumbles. Calum speaks up.

"Why don't you like doctors?" Ashton and Skylar both glare at him.

"She has had a bad experience in the past." Ashton says obviously not wanting to elaborate.
"Anyways, lets get home so we can eat Ice cream." He says and everyone cheers and leaves the room.

"Thanks guys!" Skylar yells sarcastically . I laugh cradle her in my arms before walking with her in my arms to the car.
