SHAWNS POV
I was just talking to Jess when a doctor came in the room.
"You must be Shawn." he said
"Yes." I answered.
"Listen, I'm sorry to say this but she.. She has a 50% chance of waking up. Besides does she really want to? She has no more family." he said to me.

"No, she will pull through. I know she will" I told him

"Alright. Well I came to let you know that if she dosnt wake up in the next day or two then we need to take her off the machines." He explained.
"So basically you are telling me that if she doesn't pull through, then you are just going to kill her." I asked.

"No, it's complicated. Please understand the circumstances we are in sir. " He said and he walked out.
I walked out of the room and told Nash and Taylor that they could go in.
I began to break down. Just then her sister, Stephanie, walked up to me tapping on me on the shoulder.
I got up and hugged her.
"Can I see her?" She asked
"Yea, come." I said and I walked in her room followed by Stephanie.
When she walked in, she immediately ran towards her bed and hugged her.
"I SHOULD I HAVE BEEN HERE. I SHOULD HAVE STAYED WITH YOU. I NEVER SHOULD HAVE LEFT!" She cried.

I gave Nash and Taylor a signal that it was a bad time, and they walked out.
"Stephanie, don't say that." I said to her.
"No it's true. Shawn please give this to my sister when she wakes up. This is goodbye for me. That's what makes this so bad." She said handing me an envelope.
"Wait wh-" I didn't even get to finish talking because she hugged Jess one last time and just walked out.
I went back out to the guys and just told them to come in the room for the night.
We all fell asleep on the chairs and I fell asleep next to Jessica.

THE NEXT DAY
I woke up the next morning to someone hugging me.

JESSICAS POV
It was as if I had fallen asleep and I was having a dream. I couldn't move or talk.
But this time in opened my eyes and I wiggled my toes around successfully.

I turned my head and noticed that Shawn was beside me and he had his arms wrapped tightly around me almost as I he was never going to let go.
"Shawn, your squishing my lungs" I said with a giggle
He opened his eyes and said nothing he just like flinched and kissed me.
"JESSICA" He yelled pulling away but then kissing my cheek like 50 times

Everyone around jumped up in a fright.

"SHES ALIVE!!" Nash yelled.

"Yo, Hayes get a doctor" cameron said.

I turned to Shawn. "I got you this." He said with a smile, handing me a teddy bear.

"Awe, thanks." I said kissing him on the cheek.

"Jess, how are you doing?" A nurse asked.

"Well I have a headache but that's it" I said

"Oh, okay well surprisingly that's very good. You are very lucky my dear.." She said raising her eyebrows.

"Oh, how's my grandma?" I asked with a big smile, I am really hoping to go see her and maybe play a game of cards like the old times.

"Oh I'm sorry, but she didn't make it through the night." The nurse said.

"Wha-what.." I said as a tear dropped down my cheek.

"I'm sorry.." She said and she walked out.

"I'm so sorry Jessica" All of the guys said one after another.

Shawn just pulled me in a tighter hug.
"Oh, Jess Steph wanted me to give you this. She stopped by but had to go. " shawn said to me handing me a letter.

I took the letter. "Guys can me and Shawn be alone please." I asked. They all quietly got up and walked out.

I sat up more and peeled open the letter.

"Wait." Shawn said putting his hand over mine.
"Whatever it says in that letter, just know I will always be here. I am never leaving." he said. I pecked him on the lips and opened the letter.

In nice printing it read,

Dear Jess,
I am so proud of who you have become. You are such a beautiful person inside and out. I should have been there as a role model for you but unfortunately I just couldn't handle the pressure and I needed to sort out my own issues. I regret to say this but I will never be able to see you again. I was diagnosed with a rare type of cancer in my brain, and the doctors say that I don't even have a week. I need you to understand that I love you with all my heart and I know that you will be okay. I need you to be strong for me. I love you.
               love always,
                    Stephanie❤️

As I read the letter tears began to slip harshly down my face.
"Shawn she's gone" I cried in to his chest.

"Jess it's okay we will get through this. You are not alone." He said rubbing his hand up and down my back sending shivers up my spine.

"Shawn.. I need to get out of here.." I said looking around the grey walked dark, gloomy hospital room.
"I will go talk to the nurse to see if we can go home now, in the meantime watch some TV, I will be back." He said getting up and walking out of the room.

SHAWNS POV

I walked out of the room with millions of thoughts running through my head. I just sat down for a moment and processed all of this.
Time to kick it in to 'be an amazing boyfriend mode'
I thought to myself.

I got up and walked to the front desk.
"How may I help you" the lady asked us.

"I would like to check out my girlfriend, Jessica Scott,  in room 275 please." I blurted out.

"Um we can't-" the lady didn't even finish talking.

"No, we need to go home. Now. Please." I stated.

"Okay well I hope you know I can get fired for this. " she said

"You are free to leave." She said typing on her computer.

I walked off. GOOD GOING SHAWN.
I thought to myself, now I need to figure out what Jessica and I are going to do for the next stage of this process..
