I look forward to hearing some more chapter suggestions so I can continue to update even though the season has ended. Thank you for the continued support.

Luke starred down at the body of his best friend. Sean and Luke had been friends since kindergarten, and had always stuck by each other. Now looking at the pale boy the pain finally seemed real to Luke. His best friend was dead.

The worst thing was the fact he witnessed it. The split second his friend died.

*2 hours earlier*

"That was pretty good" Sean announced referring to the movie they'd just watched. The two boys were walking back from the theatre down the street.

"I've seen better" Luke replies with a cheeky grin on his face.

"Yeah, yeah, you always have 'seen better' after every movie we watch" Sean shakes his head in disbelief but he was grinning at his best friend.

"I have, anyway you want to come back to mine and play some soccer or something?"

"I'll take any chance to kick your ass Luke"

"Dream on Seany" Luke pushes his friend playfully.

"You know I love you really, you're my genius boy" Sean teases slinging an arm around the shorter boys shoulder as they crossed the road. That's when the car came tearing round the corner. Sean saw it and pushed Luke out of the way, but he wasn't quick enough to move himself.

Luke pushes himself up from the ground angry at his friend for pushing him over but then he turned around and saw what had happened. He sees Sean's lifeless body on the road a few metres away from the car which had hit him. Luke runs over to his friend who was covered in blood, and wasn't breathing.

"Sean! Seany!" Luke shouts shaking his friend's shoulders. There were tears dripping down his face as he looks down at his dead friend. His dead friend who died saving his life.

"Sean please wake up, I need you. Sean! God dam it! Wake up you idiot!" He was screaming now and the tears were pouring off his face on to Sean's body and the road. Luke felt a strong grip on his shoulders and turned to see the driver of the car. He was so young, maybe 24. He looked absolutely devastated, and was as pale as a sheet of paper.

"I'm so sorry kid, I'm so sorry, but come on you don't want to look at him like this" The young man grimaces. Luke notices adults watching, most were on their phone calling 911 some were trying to comfort him and a few were stood around Sean trying to keep him warm with their coats.

"You did this, it's your fault" Luke snaps at the driver. He didn't mean to do it. Although it was the drivers fault, he was driving too fast and now he'd killed a kid. A kid with a bright future.

"I know and I'm sorry buddy, believe me I'd do anything to take it back" The man replies his voice breaking halfway through the sentence as tears threaten to fall.

"I don't want your apology, you son of a b*tch" Luke replies angrily before clenching his fist and punching the man in the face which wasn't easy considering the height difference. Looking back on it if he knew the police were at the accident scene he wouldn't have done it, but he really had no idea.

"Oi kid!" A police officer shouts over at him. Luke turns to see him walking over.

"What do you think you're doing? That's an arrestable offence, what are you even doing here?" The officer asks eyeing Luke and the older man next to him.

"My best friend just died in front of me and you're accusing me of breaking the law?" Luke asks with wide eyes, he was angry, heartbroken and confused.

"You were the boy he was with" The officer states, realising what had happened "Okay son, you are going to come with me to the hospital to get yourself checked out and then we're going to contact your parents"

"My mum and dad are surgeons at the hospital" Luke states his emotions were still running high, and he wasn't sure when he was going to blow.

"Well that just made my job a lot easier, you go and wait in my car over there" The officer points out the car and gently pushes Luke in the right direction before turning to the man "And sir were you the driver of the vehicle?"

*End of flashback*

"Mr Benino has agreed not to press charges against your son" The police officer informs Meredith and Derek as they all stand outside the hospital room where Sean's body was laying. His parents and sister were in there with Luke. All of them were absolutely crushed by the accident but were very supportive and tried to help Luke reduce the guilt he felt.

"Well I'd hope so, he killed a young boy today, I hope he's going away for it" Meredith remarked. She watched her son in the hospital room. She knew the next few months were going to be really difficult.

"I'm aware of that Madam, and don't worry the boy will get the justice he deserves however your son physically assaulted a man today, and you seem to be just brushing it off"

"Well my son was very upset and he still is, he watched his best friend die, what do you expect from a 14 year old?" Meredith counters becoming angry at the ignorance of the police officer.

"I understand he was upset and my best wishes go to him and the boy's family, but that doesn't excuse his actions" The officer replies also becoming slightly irritated.

"Officer we completely understand, and don't worry we'll be having a word with our son. Thank you for bringing him here" Derek replies quickly before his wife could think of any more insults to use.

"No problem, give your son my best, I'll be in contact to get his statement within the next few days" The officer informs them before entering the hospital room to talk to the family.

"Dad, he's been in there for about four hours" Ella observes, the concern for her brother showing. They all watch as Luke sits next to Sean's body in the same position he had been for most of the day. He had his head rested on Sean's upper arm whilst he sat on a chair next to the bed. It was getting late and Derek knew his son would be tired but he also knew he was hurting.

"I know, but guys listen to me now" Derek addresses his children "Luke isn't going to be himself for the next few months, he might be a lot angrier, and he won't want to do much, so we just need to stick by him and help in any way we can"

"Of course dad" Ella and George agree.

"Derek, we need to get him he can't just stay in there on his own all night. He needs to come home and get some sleep" Meredith tells her husband who nods agreeing.

"I know, I'll go and get him" Derek walks over to the hospital room and stands at the doorway. He feels all eyes on him from his family, but also Mark, Jackson, Owen, Cristina, Alex and Callie who had been watching the events unfold.

"Luke buddy, I know you don't want to leave Sean but we need to go home and get some rest" Derek says quietly not wanting to cause his son anymore stress

"You guys can go home, I'm going to stay with Sean, his family just left him to go home so I have to stay" Luke replies with an emotionless voice, his back was still turned and facing Sean.

"They've gone home because there's nothing else we can do for Sean. He's dead Luke and he's not coming back, I'm sorry but he's not" Derek explains slowly moving closer to his son

"Don't say that!" Luke shouts angrily. He wasn't ready to face the pain yet. Derek flinches at the volume of his son's voice but places a comforting hand on his shoulder.

"I'm sorry Luke, I really am but come on we have to go, you can say good bye at the funeral"

"Leave me alone! I'm serious dad! Keep away from me!" Luke screams and once again the tears start to fall and his body shakes as he cries. Derek picks his son up and holds him whilst carrying him out of the room. But when Luke realises he was being taken out of the room he fights back.

"Get off me! Put me down! I hate you! Put me down!" Luke was screaming again and everyone watched him with sorrow "Sean! Seany! Dad! He needs me! Seany needs me!"

Derek places his son on the floor next to George and Ella and puts his hands on his shoulders to make him focus "Luke, please understand there's nothing you can do for him"

"Don't say that, please don't say it" Luke whimpers

"Buddy, Sean's not coming back so please let's go home, he's in a better place" Derek advises, he can feel the tears dripping on his cheeks as he watches his son cry.

Luke doesn't say anything for a few seconds but then he screams with exhaustion, pain and sadness before dropping to his knees and leaning on the floor. His body shakes and tears fall.

"Seany, he saved my life" He cries but he was no longer shouting "He didn't deserve this. Sean you should be here, I'll never forget you"

Tears were threatening to fall from everyone's eyes and some people couldn't hold them in. Watching Luke breakdown over the loss of his best friend could break anyone.

"Let's go home" Derek states carrying his still crying son, his family close behind as they walk out of the hospital to their car.

Jackson, Owen, Callie, Alex, Mark and Cristina all look at each other with looks of pain.

"I don't know who I feel sorrier for, Sean for being hit by the car or Luke for having to deal with the pain of it" Callie speaks up her eyes still wet with tears

"All I know is Luke won't ever be the same after this" Jackson finalises, and they all agree nodding knowing the bright eyed, fun loving ball of energy they all knew and loved was gone.
