Marc bent down by her and was scared out of his mind. He didn't know what to do for her, so he did the only thing that he could. Marc picked up his cell phone and dialed the number to the clinic. He was breathing heavy as the phone was ringing; he felt like it was taking for ever but really it was just a few seconds.
"RWHC how may I help you" Marc heard Lana's voice come through the phone.
"Lana I need to talk to my mom" Marc said as clear as he could but he couldn't hide the fear and worry in his voice.
"Marc, what's wrong, what happened?" Lana asked just as worried, Peter who was standing right there looked over when he heard Lana speak.
"Marc Lu is in the ER" Lana said then hearing Marc let out a deep breath she looked over at Peter and said "Peter is right here, you want to talk to him?"
"Yes please Lana and hurry" Marc answer, in the background he could hear Lana call Peter over to the phone, he's really upset about something he also heard her say.
"Marc what's up?" Peter asked not having any idea what he was in store for.
"Peter, its Olivia we got into a fight she can into the bathroom and locked the door. When I heard a big bang I busted in the door and she's lying unconscious on the floor. What do I do? Marc said almost losing his breath from talking so fast."
"Marc calm down, Ill call an ambulance and Ill be over there right away. Where are you?" Peter asked trying to keep himself calm.
"Her house" Marc answered
Peter quickly hung up the phone, picked up the phone again and called an ambulance over to Olivia's house. Then Peter can out the door, not even telling anyone where he was going. He sped down to the house and got there before the ambulance. He ran into the house without knocking or anything. When he walked in he saw Serena passed out on the couch. He thought to himself, yah she really changed her ways.
"Marc" he called out.
"Up here" he screamed out.
Peter ran up the stairs, when he got there Marc was bent over Olivia holding her hand. Peter rushed in and checked her pulse, her skin was clammy.
"Marc did she take anything?" Peter asked as they started to hear sirens
"I don't know" Marc answered.
Just then Peter saw a plastic medicine bottle on the floor. He picked up the bottle, the cap was off and the bottle was empty. Just as Peter discovered the bottle the paramedics rushed upstairs. He told them about his discovery and then they rushed Olivia to the ER. Marc rode with Olivia and Peter followed behind. They rushed her in and started to work on her.
3 hours later:
Olivia was just starting to stir awake. Instead of waking up to see Marc at her side, she saw Peter holding her hand, staring at her. When her eyes fluttered open she look straight at Peter and saw the tears and fear that he had.
"Hey" he said sweetly.
"Hey" she said back even though she knew that the conversation was going to get a lot more serious than hey.
"What were you thinking Liv?" He asked.
"I just wanted the pain to go away, I just wanted it to go away" she answered softly.
"Liv why didn't you come to me?" Peter asked.
"I don't know, I didn't think that you would help or no how to" Olivia answered.
Peter looked down at the floor "Olivia you could have came back and lived with me. You didn't have to stay with your mom" Peter said trying to figure out why all this stuff happens to this sweet girl.
"I wanted the sense that I could deal with stuff on my own, that I didn't need anyone's help" she answered.
"Olivia you can't do everything on your own. Look what it resorted you to, you know that if Marc wasn't there you could have died in that bathroom. If he didn't care enough about you, you wouldn't be here. When did you start cutting?"
Olivia started to cry a little at the fact that she had almost killed herself and that she really needed help. She realized that she couldn't do it all herself. "About a week ago" Olivia answered.
"And what did that do for you?" Peter asked trying to understand what it did for her.
"It's like after I was done I felt relieved like the weight was lifted off my shoulder" she answered honestly.
Peter shook his head he understood, yet he didn't understand. "Okay well I'm going to go get Marc, he's anxious to see you. But we need to talk later" he said leaning over her and kissing her forehead. He then left the room, and in appeared Marc a few minuets later.
"Baby" he said walking over to her while sitting on the edge of the bed and setting down a stuffed teddy bear next to her. He took her hand and held it while staring into her eyes. "You scared me so much baby" Marc said to her.
"I'm sorry; I just couldn't take the pain. I wanted it to go away" she said to him.
Marc just held her hand and sat in silence. Olivia had dozed off to sleep a couple of times but woke up with a genuine look at her surroundings. A couple hours later Chelsea comes into the room. Olivia's half way closed eyes shot open.
"Chels what are you doing here?" Olivia asked.
"Liv you really think that I was going to let my best friend be in the hospital and not even come by to show my love and support. Hey Marc" Chelsea said.
"Hey Marc" said quietly in the background as Olivia started to speak again. "Chelsea how did you find out?"
Elliott found out from his Aunt or someone and then he hold me Chelsea explained.
Olivia, Marc, and Chelsea talked for a while but then they were both asked to leave when Dr. Nick Beonclavilla came in and said that Olivia needed her rest and that they could come back tomorrow. When they left the room Nick came in further.
"How you feeling kid?" He asked.
"Pretty good considering what the worst point of the day" was she answered.
"Alright you get some sleep" he said as he left the room.
The next day Olivia woke up and it was 10ish, she wouldn't really see any of friends until after 2:30. She had the whole day to sit around, but then she thought about the conversation that she had Peter that they still had to finish and she was really looking forward to that. Olivia slightly dozed off, but when she heard a tap on the door, she barely opened her eyes to see who it was, she just said come in. Before she looked at who it was she looked at the clock that only read 12:30. When she looked at the person her eyes widened.
"Hey Olivia, I no that I'm probably the last person that you probably want to see" he started off but Olivia cut him off.
"You're not the last but you're not at the top of the list" she giggled.
Brian smiled and chuckled a little "these are for you" he said while handing her some flowers.
Olivia took the flowers and smelled them "they're beautiful thank you" she said.
"They're as beautiful as you" he said now sitting in the chair by the bed. Are you okay Liv he asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine she" said nodding.
"Listen Liv I wanted to apologize for the way that I acted, I truly am sorry Brian" said looking back and forth between her and the floor.
"I accept Brian" she said putting her hand over the top of his for a second before taking it away.
"So Olivia how's the food in this place?" He asked.
"Brian it's a hospital need I say" more they both started to laugh. They lost track of time and they didn't even notice that it was already 2.
"Alright Liv I got to be going, I have to baby sit my baby sister and if I'm late my mom will kill me" he said while walking over to her to give her a hug and he kissed her on the cheek.
"Bye Brian"
"Bye Olivia"
Right on time at about 2:30 Marc walked into the room to find Olivia sleeping. He quietly walked over to the chair and sat down. He put his headphones on and leaned back in the chair to get comfortable. Marc ended up falling asleep; he woke up when he heard Olivia giggle.
"Hello sleepy head" Olivia greeted him.
"Hey baby he greeted back, how long was I sleeping for?"
Olivia looked at the clock and said I would say about 2 hours.
Marc looked over at the table and notices the flowers "Babe who gave you the flowers?" He asked.
Olivia was silent for a moment knowing that Marc would be mad because he didn't like Brian. "Brian brought them" she answered.
Marc let out a breath of annoyance and rubbed his eyes.
"Marc he said he was sorry" Olivia said.
Then Peter walked into the room and looked back and forth between the two; noticing the tension.
"Marc can I talk to Olivia for a little while?" Peter asked him.
"Yeah, of course" Marc said as he got up from the chair, left the room and shutting the door behind him. Knowing what the conversation was about.
Peter sat down in the same chair that Marc was sitting in, he stared deep into her eyes and said "Liv, and I decided that what is best for you is to go to this school, camp, and therapy program to help you deal with your pain in a safe way."
Olivia just shook her head not really knowing what to say. "Okay" she decided that she wasn't going to win a fight even if she picked one.
"I just want you to get better" Peter said to her.
"I understand" Olivia said while shaking her head.
