"Is Liam going to the prom with you on Friday?" Bethany asks me as we walk to our mathematics class.I shrug. "I don't think so. Dances are not his scene. He told me that before.""Oh okay." Beth said."If he doesn't want to go, I understand. I'm not going to hold that against him. I'm still going to go to prom and enjoy myself." I said, smiling at her.She grins back. "Oh yes and remember that you are a prom queen nominee." She said in a singsong voice.I groan when she said that. I didn't really care for prom queen, but Jasmine had nominated me when I was in the hospital. I didn't even know. I was shocked when I heard my name being called over the intercom as a prom queen nominee last month. I didn't even campaign because I didn't care to win.After a while Jasmine adds. "By the way, I snuck in and saw the work you guys did on the decorations. I like it." She compliments."Yes it is." I said smiling in reminiscence at the work we had done.A month back, I had went to help Simone wit
Julia's POVI awoke the next morning, feeling more rested. As soon as I open my eyes, I find Liam watching me.I stretch and smile at him. "Were you watching me sleep?" I ask."Yes." He said, returning my smile. "I love watching you."My smile broaden at his comment. I then look over at the table near the window. It was laden with get-well cards and flowers. I saw them yesterday, but was too tired to really look at them.Liam follows my line of sight and looks at the flowers as well. "A lot of your friends visited and brought those." He explains. He then points at a bunch of purple flowers. "Those are from me.""There are all beautiful." I said quietly.He then gestures to the room. "And this room that you are in, is courtesy of my dad. He paid to have you moved into this comfortable room with everything you need."My eyes widen. "Your dad paid for this room?" He nods. "Wow...I guessed I really missed a lot." I didn't know that he was talking to his dad again."Yeah. He came yesterday
Liam's POVAnother day has passed and now today was Wednesday. After school, I decided to go to the park, just to think about things. It was very hard to go through something like this again. However, no matter how heartbroken and devastated I am, I will never turn my back on her. I will never leave her. I know deep down that she needs me more than ever.I soon left the park and went to the hospital. I pass Julia's parents in the hallway, as they both headed to the hospital's cafeteria. They both had left work early and was here since then. After talking to them a little bit, I went up to Julia's room. I walk over to the chair that was beside her bed and sit down.I was in the room for ten minutes, when I hear a light knock on the door. I look towards the doorway and see that it was my mother. She begins to walk towards me and I get up to meet her halfway."Liam, your father is here to see you." She said. I was about to tell her that he was the last person I wanted to see right now, b
Liam's POVThe weekend had come and gone, but Julia still hadn't woken up. It has now been four days and I was beginning to think the worse.Today was now Monday and I have decided to go to school. Even though, I didn't want to, I knew that I had to, because I couldn't keep skipping school. I was currently at home getting ready for school. I still hadn't eaten a full meal, only small bites and my mother was beginning to worry about me.As soon as I was ready, I got in my car and drive to school. When I reach school, I park in the parking lot and get out. I enter the school building and walk to my locker. Students in the hallway gave me looks; some were sympathetic and some were just blank. I held my head straight and ignore them. I didn't feel like dealing with anyone right now.I get my books out of my locker and went to my first class of the day. Mathematics was one of my favourite subjects, but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't concentrate. My maths teacher was currently expla
Liam's POVThe following day was Friday and Julia still hadn't woken up. There was no improvement; her condition was the same. Yesterday, I had went home to have a shower, changed my clothes and bring back anything that I would need. I came back to the hospital right after.My mother had called me to try and convince me to go to school today, but I still refused. Surprisingly, she didn't argue with me. Julia's parent hadn't been to work either. They had asked for two days off. Beth and Brian did not go to school today either, but Brian had took Beth home to get some things.I was currently sitting on the chair that I had been on since I got to the hospital. I suddenly look up to see Dr. Barnes walking towards us.He greets us with a smile. "Julia can be visited by friends now." He relates. I nod my head at him, before he walks away again. I get up from my seat and begin to walk towards room 205.When I reach the door, I open it and step inside the room. Instantly, my eyes went to Juli
Liam's POVIt was now around 7pm and I was still at the hospital. I didn't plan on leaving, not until Julie wakes up.Julia's mom was asleep on the chair that she was on. Her father had went home to get some blankets to bring here. Beth was asleep as well. Her head was placed in Brian's lap, who was stroking her hair gently. He looks tired as well."Liam!" I hear my mother's voice. I look down the corridor and saw her walking towards me. I had called her earlier and informed her about what had happened. She said she would be here as soon as she left work.I stand up to meet her. She wraps her arms around me in a hug, when she reaches me. "I'm so sorry, honey." She said quietly. She pulls away and looks at me with a sad expression. "How is she? Have you heard anymore news?"I sigh and shoves my hands in my pants pockets. "No. No development." I answer, my voice cracking a bit."Oh honey." Her eyes then trails over to where Julia's mother lay, still asleep. "I can imagine what her mothe
