((lmaoo i gtg in like 4 minutes for like two hours until history))Liam brushes her hair from her face, wanting to see it.
She knows she looks horrible. She knows there are tear stains and snot and her eyes are uncontrollably puffy. Her lips are still swollen, another reminder of why this happened. She keeps looking at him though, knowing that he would never judge her.
Liam just looks at her lovingly, knowing she needed support.
She sobs into his shirt, soaking it. She's mad at herself for being this much of a mess when it's his father in there.
Liam holds her for a solid 10 minutes while she sobs into him. After a moment he pulls back and wipes her tears, "You did nothing wrong. Sky, it's okay, Dad is going to be okay." He whispers.
She looks up at him and says, "Okay, I'm sorry." Clearly it was still killing her inside.
He kisses her forehead, knowing she was still in pain, "It's okay." He whispers before Ella came up from behind him, "Dad's awake."
She pulls away and says, "You should go in there."
He nodded, "I'll be back in a couple minutes." He kissed her forehead one last time before walking into the room with Ella.
She sat down in one of the waiting room chairs and replayed his words, accepting that it wasn't her fault. It wasn't their fault. They made decisions and he stood by them. She would stand beside him in those decisions. She heard him say over and over, "It's okay. It's not your fault. It's okay." She healed, waiting for him to return, wiping the last of her tears. She froze. Where was Lillian? She immediately pulled out her phone and called her.
Lillian had stopped crying and was lying down on the bed when she heard her phone ring. She grabbed it quickly, hoping it was news about Jackson. "Hello?" She answered, without even checking the ID.
Skylar breathes and says, "He's fine and awake. I'm sorry. I took your one way to the hospital right? I'm coming to get you right now." She left a note on the chair where Liam had been sitting and took his car, arriving to pick up Lillian.
She put her hand on her heart and said, "It's okay sweetie, I understand. Please be careful. It's very dark."
Skylar was driving, distracted, a million thoughts crashing through her mind. She turns a blind corner and immediately is thrown back by the impact. Liam's car flips multiple times, Skylar seeing stars and feeling blood run down her face. She blacks out, the last thing she hears is her own screams.
Lillian sat patiently in her room, hoping Skylar was okay. She heard her phone ring and answered it again. She nodded, "This is she." "Ma'am do you know a Skylar Robbins?"
She stood up, "Yes. Is she okay?"
"No ma'am. She has crashed in a wreck. Her phone was thrown out of the car and I was on a walk. I already called the police. I saw the entire thing. We are on ~street name here~. The car flipped multiple times."
Lillian didn't even say anything. She didn't have a ride but she would run to Skylar. She ran out of the hotel and started down the road to get to her.
Skylar is conscious in her brain. She's in extreme pain especially in her right leg. Her head throbs, in something way worse than just a concussion. Her left arm is most definitely popped out of place if not broken. She has a large piece of glass sticking out of her stomach. She attempts to scream in her brain, but nothing comes out.
By the time Lillian arrives the ambulance is there. Skylar is pulled out the car and the man who had called her is standing nearby. When Lillian sees Skylar she lets out a bloodcurdling scream and runs to her, "Sweetie," she repeats over and over. She follows them as the paramedics bring her into the ambulance. They try to kick her out, but she refuses and goes in anyways. She calls Liam and when he doesn't answer she tries again. When he finally answers she says, "Liam, honey, Skylar took your car to come a pick me up from the hospital, but she crashed. We are on the way to the hospital. It's bad, honey.''
Skylar feels hands on her inside her brain. She tries to move, to speak, but she can't. The pain is too much. She hears a scream. She wonders if it's her own.
Once Lillian hangs up with Liam, whom was sobbing uncontrollably and pacing all over the hospital at the moment (great job sav .-.), she continuously tries to talk to Skylar. "Sweetie, it's Lillian. Can you hear me?"
((I DIND'T WNAT TO I HAD TO AND NOW I'M SOBBING LEAVE ME ALONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE))
Skylar thinks she hears Liam. Liam. Liam. She freezes and wonders what happened to him. To her. Where is he? She wants him here. She needs him. She hears Lillian, very faintly. She feels her finger twitch, hoping Lillian sees it.

((YOU DID THIS TO YOURSELF MISS MAAM))Lillian gasps and grabbed her hand, "Hey sweetie, hi, it's Lillian."
She hears Lillian's voice and tries hard to talk, to open her eyes, anything. But she can't.
((IT NEEDED TO HAPPEN SO THEY REALIZE THAT LIFE ISN'T JUST LIKE FOREVER. IDKDKDKDKDKDK. I'M SORRY DIRECTED AT LIAM. ))
Lillian continued to talk to Skylar, hoping, praying she would squeeze her hand.
She hears Lillian. She uses all of her strength to squeeze her hand, just slightly. She feels herself moving again. She thinks she hears another scream. She thinks she hears Liam. She's sobbing inside, from her pain and the pain that she's causing others. She still isn't exactly sure what happened.
Lillian laughs through her tears in feeling the very slight squeeze, "Oh thank goodness." She sobbed. After a 15 minute drive they reach the ER. The paramedics take Skylar immediately to what they call life-saving surgery. Lillian, sobbing, makes her way to the front and signs papers of consent. Not one minute later was Skylar in surgery.
She hears a lot of people talking and feels the little pinches, but no pain. She's in shock so deeply that she doesn't react when the doctors check her reactivity to the light. She decides right then and there she didn't care what it took. She didn't care if it nearly killed her. She would be coming back to Liam. She wouldn't give up.
Liam runs down to the ER almost 30 seconds after she was put under. He was a complete mess. His hair was wild, he had tears running down his face, his face was red and blotchy.
--the surgery happens--
A few days later, she wakes up, in extreme pain.
A few days later, she wakes up, in extreme pain.
Liam had never left her side, despite the begs from Lillian and his now fully healed father. Liam was asleep, his hand in hers, his head on the bed and him sitting on the floor.
She sees Liam and immediately smiles even though she was hurting. She whispers, "Liam. Baby, I'm awake." She squeezes his hand.
Liam jerks awake. "Oh my gosh," he murmured, "Thank god." He said, giving her a small, soft hug, when in reality he wanted to hug her as tightly as he could.
She laughs slightly, wincing at the pain it came with. She starts crying, "I'm so sorry."
"Shh," he says, "It was an accident, and you're going to be okay." Liam softly wipes her tears, hoping it didn't hurt her.
She wants him to be closer but she knows it'll hurt. She moves over on her bed slowly. "Will you lay with me?"
He nods and accidently presses the call button with his knee as he climbs carefully into the bed.
((LIAM YA SO STUPID))
She turns it off ((bc I said so)) and smiles, facing him.
She turns it off ((bc I said so)) and smiles, facing him.
"Oops," he said sheepishly. He smiles and looks at her, "Sky, I thought I lost you." He said, tearing up.
She immediately tears up. She swallows saying, "I was right on the line. When you're there... they kind of give you a choice. If you're going to fight for life and hold on for the people you love or if it hurts too much and you want to take your chances with death..." She looks at him, the tears free flowing, "I couldn't leave you Liam. I stayed for you." She looks down, embarrassed for what she wants to say. She whispers, so softly she doesn't know if he'll hear it, "I love you. I know you said we're going to take it slow and everything but Liam, I. Love. You." She knows it like she knows she needs air to breathe and food to survive.
He starts full on crying, "I don't care about taking it slow. I just want to be with you, Sky. I love you so much." He said, knowing it was true. "I couldn't," he started, "I couldn't leave your side the entire time. They begged me," he tried to catch his breath, "They begged me to go home or go to school or go to soccer practice, but I wouldn't. Not until I knew you were okay. Not until I knew if the best part of me was okay. Because that's what you are to me, you are everything." He told her, knowing it was true, too true.
She cries with him, his words tearing through her. She brushes her hand across his cheek. "Aww, baby you should've gone to school. I was going to be okay. I would never leave you. Not ever." She hears him say the last part and says, "You are my everything too. You're the best part, the person I wake up wanting to see, the person I want to fall asleep next to. Liam, I think that you're it for me. I think it's only ever going to be you." She hugs him tightly, showing him that she was okay.
"I couldn't leave you," he whispered, hugging her back. "I think I knew it was going to be you from that first kiss in the classroom." He said, reminiscing. They had been through so much since then, but it was worth it. He got Skylar out of it. He may have missed the most important football practice ever, but he quit football anyways and he got Skylar fucking Robbins.
She lays in his arms, crying and laughing at the same time. "I knew it was you from the moment you picked me up from the hallway. No one else would've even cared. They would've laughed. You're special. I need you. It's not even a want anymore. I don't think I could live without you. Let's never fight again, okay?"
She smiles inside thinking back to the way they had started.

He sighs, "Let's never fight again." He agreed, holding her, loving her more in this moment than ever before. "I love you." He whispered.
"I love you too. Always and forever, Liam Peterson." She smiles, whispering.
"Forever and forever, Skylar Robbins." He said, smiling Skylarly for the first time in a long time.
She falls asleep against him, finally at peace.
He smiles and softly calls the doctors into the room, knowing they had to know she was awake.
She hears Liam and smiles again, so happy to be back.
She finally looks up at him, some of the shame gone.
