Mitchie POV
I stood still, not quite able to move my limbs. My head was spinning and I'm pretty sure I've began hyperventilating.
Shane, my Shane had managed to wrap his brand new land rover around a tree on the edge of the highway. How? I dont know.
I hadn't stayed on the phone long enough to hear how he was or where he was all I knew is that I was one of Shanes emergency contact numbers.
I heard several heavy footsteps race up my stairs as I was faced by three out of breath teenagers.
"Mitchie" Nate breathed. I tried my best to avoid all eye contact with him, still feeling incredibly awkward about where we stood after tonight's little episode. He approached me, trying to place his hand on my shoulder. I flinched, turning my gaze to Jake.
"Mitch, Shanes-"
"I know" I cut him off, my voice barely above a whisper "H-how is he?" I gulped hard, not wanting to burst into tears; I've already done enough of that tonight.
"They didn't give a lot of details but he's in ICU" Nate said, his eyes were red, and his head was hung low. ICU? That's not good. "My parents are vacating everyone from the party; they said we should go straight to the hospital."
I nodded; feeling completely numb, 2 hours ago everything was fine, Shane wasn't mad, and wasn't lying in ICU with god knows what kind of injuries. Jake draped his arm around my shoulders as he led me down stairs in silence.
The whole car journey was completely silent, Jake and Jason were in the front, whereas Nate and I were in the back. I turned my focus from the view out the window towards Nate who was clutching his knees to his chest, tears running silently down his face. I bit my lip at the sight; I had never seen Nate upset, never, and in all honesty, it was a heart breaking It didn't matter how awkward the current situation was between us but he needed a shoulder to cry on, just like he had done with me so many times previously.
I momentarily unbuckled myself before sliding over to the middle seat and strapping myself in again, getting closer to him. I extended my arms as he looked up from his knees to meet my gaze, I felt helpless as he obliged, burying his head into my shoulder, feeling his body jerk slightly as he continued to sob.
As strange as it was, I had remained fairly collected, normally I was the first to show emotions, hell I cry at everything and I mean everything. But now I couldn't feel anything, I didn't want to believe anything.
As we pulled up outside the hospital I felt a stabbing pain in my chest, I hated hospitals but knowing that the guy I love is lying in one, becomes a little too much.
I walk hand in hand with Nate down the white corridors, his grip, so tight I swear the blood circulation in my hand has stopped.
The doctors had said that he was in a critical condition but was expected to make a full recovery, eventually. No other vehicle or person was involved in the accident but it was due to an apparent animal leaping in the middle of the high way causing Shane to swerve off the road.
Room 2. This is it. All that was separating us now was a glass panel and a door. I looked through the blinded panel to see him lying motionless on the bed, wires attached to him left, right and centre
"Mitch, I think you should go first" Nate said
"B-b-ut why?" Surely it should be Nate who sees him first, he was his brother.
"Because I can't Mitch" he looked down at his shoes "After all it's my fault he's in here in the first place"
"No its not!" I protested, my voice rising slightly
"It is Mitch, just go please."
I nodded, opening the door quietly, and entering the room. I walked to his side, his eyes firmly shut. My stomach flipped uneasily. I blinked several times before I allowed myself to get a decent look at him. i was scared to look at him.
His face was pale, his hair tangled in clutches with blood. I felt tears begin to prick the back of my eyes as I moved my gaze down his body. His left arm bandaged along with his right leg, both obviously broken. His limbs were covered in deep purple bruises, along with several deep gashes.
I pulled the chair in the corner next to his bedside, sitting down hesitantly before intertwining his had with mine, my fingers lightly brushing over his.
"Shane" I sighed "Shane if you can hear me, open your eyes please, for me" I begged quietly. I waited for a response , but nothing. I couldn't take it any longer, all I wanted to do was hear his voice, see his blue eyes stare into mine. I laid my head on the side of his bed as the emotions got the better of me, "God if you only knew how much I love you" I said quietly, raising my head slightly to look at his expressionless face
"If you only knew."

NATE POV
I sat in silence, watching nurse after nurse, doctor after doctor walk past me in and out of ICU. Both Jake and Jason had attempted conversation with me several times, yet I refused to speak. This was all my fault. If I hadn't of made the stupid selfish decision of kissing Mitchie at midnight, Shane would have never saw and would have never got into his car under the influence and end up...fighting for his life. I would never forgive myself if he was to... No I can't think like that of course he won't die. He wouldn't give up, he's Shane, he never loses a fight.
I watched as Mitchie exited Shane's room, her makeup smudged and her eyes puffy, she looked at me before throwing herself into my arms. We sat in the same position for several minutes, Mitchie just crying before Jake finally spoke up
"I think we should tell her"
Her head shot up "Tell me what?" she repositioned herself, now sitting on my lap as Jake stood in front of us.
"Are you really sure it's wise telling her here? Now of all times?" Jason asked, Jake nodded
"Mitchie, Sarah lied to Shane, to all of us"
"What? What do you mean?"
"Shane isn't becoming a dad" I finished as she twisted her neck around to look at me, her eyes full of confusion
"What?" she remained silent for a few seconds trying to figure out what we were saying "But she's pregnant."
"But it's not Shanes."
"How? But they slept together..."
"But she also slept with someone else"
Mitchies eyes widened as her expression turned from sadness into pure anger. She leapt of my lap "That stupid fucking slut!" she exclaimed "How could she, this is all her fault, I hate her, I hate her" I watched helplessly as she stopped, backing up towards the wall before sliding down it, sobbing hysterically into her lap
"I hate her" her voice was mumbled as she continued to sob, her body jerking violently as she clutched her knees to her chest "She's ruined everything. I love him"
I got to my knees and cradled her in my arms "I love him" she repeated
"I know, I know"

MITCHIE POV
I woke up after very little sleep, to find myself sprawled across the waiting room sofa, Jason next to me, whilst Nate, Jake and both sets of our parents were positioned on chairs and on the floor around the room. Everyone looking uneasy and uncomfortable. I got up quietly, not wanting to wake anyone else up. I tip toed out of the room, making my way to the vending machine at the top of the corridor, craving chocolate. Who cares if it was only seven in the morning, I had a viable enough excuse to want some.
I reached down, retrieving the bar from the bottom of the machine as something caught my eye, or should I say someone. I got up slowly, turning around , now looking face to face with the last person who should be here
"Mitchie I heard what happened." Her voice was full of concern, but whether or not it was genuine was another matter, after all she must be a pretty good actress to pull off a stunt like tricking somebody into thinking that they are the father of her unborn child.
"Like you care" I shot back, my voice hoarse from the endless hours of crying
"I do!" she protested
"No you don't. Don't think that I don't know about your little charade"
"Mitchie I'm really sorry I never meant-"
"You never meant to what?" I said raising my voice, causing Nate to awake and burst out of the waiting room "to ruin people's lives? Too late. Get out, you're the last person he would want to see when he wakes up. Trust me. "
She looked defeated, as she sighed heavily "I'm sorry" she repeated before retracing her steps, making her way out of the ward.
"Hey are you okay?" Nate asked as he met up with me, his hair dishevelled, his top raised slightly, showing off his muscular stomach
"I'm fine, I'm going to see Shane okay?" He simply nodded before yawning "Go get some sleep, you look like shit."
He laughed "Thanks Mitch, you always know how to make me feel better"
I let a small smile spread across my lips "I try"

I wandered down the same white corridors as the night previous as entered his room once again, to see him hooked up on less machines than he once was, and his face slightly brighter. I sat next to him, stroking his hair with my fingers. I watched his face intensely, waiting for a sign to tell me that he's waking up, but nothing.
I remembered thanksgiving, the book he gave me, knowing that I was yet to sing him the song that I wrote. "Morning sunshine, seeming as you're not Mr conversational today, I thought I'd sing you a little song" I inhaled deeply, this song explained exactly what I felt towards him, whether he could hear or not, I didn't care anymore.
I hung up the phone tonight
Something happened for the first time
Deep inside it was a rush, what a rush
Cause the possibility
That you would ever feel the same way
About me, just too much, just too much
Why do I keep running from the truth?
All I ever think about is you
You got me hypnotized, so mesmerized
And I just got to know
Do you ever think when you're all alone
All that we can be, where this thing can go?
Am I crazy or falling in love?
Is it really just another crush?
Do you catch a breath when I look at you?
Are you holding back like the way I do?
Cause I've tried and tried to walk away
but I know this crush ain't going away-ay-ay
Going away-ay-ay
has it ever crossed your mind
when we're hanging, spending time boy?
Are we just friends? Is there more? Is there more?
See it's a chance we've gotta take
Cause I believe that we can make this into
something that will last, last forever, forever!
Do you ever think when you're all alone
All that we could be, where this thing could go?
Am I crazy or falling in love?
Is it really just another crush?
Do you catch a breath when I look at you?
Are you holding back like the way I do?
Cause I've tried and tried to walk away
but I know this crush ain't going away-ay-ay
Going away-ay-ay
why do I keep running from the truth?
All I ever think about is you
You got me hypnotized, so mesmerized
And I just got to know
Do you ever think when you're all alone
All that we could be, where this thing could go?
Am I crazy or falling in love?
Is it really just another crush?
Do you catch a breath when I look at you?
Are you holding back like the way I do?
Cause I've tried and tried to walk away
But I know this crush ain't going away-ay-ay
this crush ain't going away-ay-ay
going away
going away-ay-ay
Going away-ay-ay
Somewhere during the song I found myself staring at his vitals machine
"That was nice."
I snapped my head around in shock "Shane?"
"Hello stranger" his voice was raspy as he tried his best to smile through the obvious pain
"How much of that did you hear?" I asked, suddenly alarmed
"Only, all of it."
Are you happy now!? Shane heard the song! And he's awake, so he didn't die! WOOO! REVIEW AND TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK, IM GLAD THAT YOU ALL LIKE THE FIC; IT MEANS SO MUCH TO ME! dont own the song - (crush)
