"Is this Mrs. Hunter?" The polite lady asked on the phone.
"No, but this is her daughter. Maya Hunter." Maya responded back with a weary voice.
She knew what calls like this were. Death. An unknown number, with a polite woman, and asking for someone by their last name. Maya couldn't begin to brace herself for what she was about to hear.
"Shawn, Mr. Hunter, has been in a vehicular accident and we aren't sure if he will make it. If you and your mother would like to see him he is unconscious but this may be your last chance."
Maya took a deep breath before replying with," Okay."
She immediately hung up and started crying.
Her mom was out grocery shopping an had the car so she wouldn't be able to get to the hospital.
Maya had been contemplating something.
That something being suicide.
She supposed that this was a sign from the Universe that she should just end it all.
Her phone rang.
It was Lucas.
For the first time ever, she declined his call.
Man, she was gonna miss him.
She just didn't know how much he was gonna miss her.
He called again.
Declined.
Once more.
Declined.
Lucas began to know that something was wrong.
Maya would decline a call from Riley before she would Lucas.
He made his way over to her apartment which wasn't but a 10 minute walk from his to hers.
Meanwhile, Maya was trying to conjure up some medicine from the cabinet in the bathroom.
Oxicotton.
She decided that she should leave a note.
Just one for her mom, Lucas, and Riley.
Maya sat in her bedroom trying to pry the lid open with a sharp cutting knife.
She could never get the things open.
Maya finally got it.
She grabbed the glass of water sobbing heavily and loudly.
As she began to take them, Lucas kicked her locked door down and tackled her to prevent her from taking the pills.
"Lucas, what are you doing!" Maya shouted angrily at him.
"Trying to stop you Maya! Why would you do this? Talk to me." Lucas said calming at the end.
"My life's falling apart Lucas. I just need to end it." Maya said quietly in a daze.
"No! You don't need to end it. There are too many people that love you for you to end it this young. I love you Maya and so do the other people in your life. Your Mom, Riley, The Matthew's, Shawn-"
Maya sobbed harder and started to reach for the pill bottle until Lucas blocked her hand.
"Did something happen with Shawn?" Lucas asked alarmingly.
Maya just nodded her head yes.
"Come here" Lucas demanded while holding his arms out for her.
Maya just sobbed while she buried her head in his neck.
"He might die Lucas. That's just one less person that loves me." Maya said as she lifted her head from his neck.
"Get up." Lucas demanded
Lucas repositioned himself in front of her full-sized mirror on her wall.
"Sit"
Maya set directly next to him.
Lucas meant on his lap but apparently she didn't get the point.
So, he picked her up gently and sat her on his lap with Maya facing the mirror as well.
"You see this girl?" Lucas asked referring to Maya.
Maya nodded her head yes while being slightly annoyed with him for doing this.
"She has a lot of people who love her. Her mom and Shawn, who even if he isn't physically here still loves you anyway. Riley and her family. Farkle who loves you unconditionally, and me." Lucas started getting teary.
"I love you Maya. I love you more than anything in this whole entire world. If you ended your life then I wouldn't know what to do." Lucas said through tears.
Maya started crying due to the fact that tears, where indeed, contagious.
Maya turned around and hugged Lucas as tight as ever.
He returned it gladly while kissing her head over and over.
"I love you Lucas. So Much." Maya expressed.
Maya's mom came through the door to find them hugging and crying together.
"What happened?" Katy asked worried.
"I'll talk to you about it later Mrs. Hunter." Lucas responded while wiping his eyes.
"Mom, Shawn was in an accident and he's in the hospital across the street." Maya said quickly.
"Oh my Gosh."
Katy sprinted across the street while Lucas and Maya cleaned their faces up quick before heading after Katy.
They walked hand-in-hand towards the hospital.
When they arrived Katy was given permission to go see Shawn.
Due to unusual luck, Shawn was gonna be alright.
He just needed some emergency surgery.
Lucas and Maya sat in the waiting room chairs cuddled up waiting on Katy to get finished before going and seeing him.
"You doin' okay?" Lucas asked Maya softly.
"I'm okay. Thank you Huckleberry. I'll never do anything like that again." Maya said sincerely.
Lucas just smiled in admiration at her in response.
