He still couldn't close his eyes without seeing her body, broken, bloody, pale and empty, it killed him. "We should have been faster." He mumbled, his eyes turning to the twins, sitting across from him in the hospitals waiting room.

"Corey, you can't blame yourself, we're lucky we got there when we did, she still has a chance." Kin spoke softly, gripping his brothers hand for support, he didn't like to admit it, but they all loved Laney, nobody could imagine the band without her.

"Kin's right, you need to stop beating yourself up, you've done all you can, now we just have to wait... we all know Laney, she's too strong to let go."

Corey pushed himself out of the chair, "I should have gotten her help sooner, if I had, maybe we wouldn't be here." His voice was cold as he paced around the room.

"You can't change the past man." Kon told him,

"I didn't know what to do, I thought that just maybe if I... I knew she needed help, but how was I supposed to know what to do." Corey sat down next to his bandmates. He looked at the two of them trying his best to smile. "What about you two, I thought you had hot dates tonight."

"We care about Lanes too ya know." Kin tried to lighten the mood to the best of his ability. "She's more important than some date, besides we can alway go out some other time..." They quieted down, each boy trapped in his own thoughts, afraid that their friend wasn't going to make it.

"What are we going to do?" Kon asked in a small voice, "if she doesn't pull through."

"She has to." Corey said, looking down at his shoes, "I need her."

.oO0Oo.

"Excuse me, sir, can we see Lanes now?" Corey's voice was dripping with sleep, he had been waiting with the twins for a good 10 hours while Laneys was being patched up. He couldn't eat, or sleep, he was running on pure adrenaline at this point.

"She's in room 210, try not to push her, she's in a fragile state." He explained to him. Corey smiled, waking Kin and Kon from their slumber before dragging them through the hospital to Laney's room.

It was sterile, the only color was the red of Laney's hair contrasting with the rest of the white room. She didn't belong there, it was too plain.

"Lanes?" He asked, walking into the small room, the twins following behind him. She sat up in the bed, turning towards them with a weak smile.

"Hey you guys." Her voice was hoarse, her throat was dry from sleep, and she was still tired, but she could talk. She was alive.

"Damnit Lanes," Corey was next to her in a second, his arms wrapped around her neck, "You scared the shit out of me." She was taken aback by his actions, he should have been mad at her, it wasn't right... but she liked it. Her right arm wrapped around his back, she made sure to keep the bandages on her left forearm hidden behind her back.

"I'm sorry." She smiled at the twins as Corey pulled back from her.

"Didn't you two have dates?" She asked, laughing at their hurt looks.

"Oh come on guys, we don't care about girls that much!" Kin nearly shouted, they didn't both have to point that out... did they?

"How long have you been here?"

"All day, those chairs are surprisingly comfortable." Kon said, walking to the side of the white bed and sitting in one of the supposed comfortable chairs.

"Wow... You're probably tired, why don't you go home, I'll still be here tomorrow." Laney sighed, watching as Kon fell asleep in the chair.

"No way! Grojband sticks together, even in... well the hospital?" Kin yawned, passing out next to his brother.

Laney smiled at them, before turning back to Corey, they watched each other, not knowing what to say... What was there to say? I'm sorry for trying to kill myself, although I still wish I wasn't here? Yeah, that would go over well.

"Scoot over." He mumbled, hopping up next to her when she complied. His arm draped around her shoulders. "You don't have to worry about Madison anymore. She's long gone, we all got on her ass for what she said to you. You wouldn't be here if we had just let her go..." She leaned her head against his shoulder.

"You should stop blaming yourself Corey, it's really not your fault, you're my best friend, I know what you're thinking." She smirked while answering the unspoken question.

"It is my fault, but... I'm just happy you're okay now."

She frowned, "you shouldn't have come after me, I know you think Madison wasn't right, but she was... that's why I did it, because she was right." She closed her eyes, fighting the tears that begged to flow. "None of you see that, but it's true, I should be dead."

"Laney don't you ever say that, Madison was being a bitch, you need to understand that, I know you don't want to be here, but you're sick, I need you to try and understand what I'm saying; I know you don't think that we want you here, but we do... I do, and Lanes, I need you here, don't ever think otherwise."

Before she could respond his lips were on hers, swallowing her fears, regrets and sorrow. He was what she needed, but it couldn't be enough... could it?
