"We didn't see any if this. I thought he was doing okay."

"He didn't tell us anything why? Lucas asked.

"The same reason we never knew what was going on until Beatrice got into her first of many fights defending him."

"He didn't want to burden us. Even though i told him so many times. We're his parents we are supposed to defend him and support him." Brooke replied.

"He wasn't moving and pale. How long had been like that?"

"God when i found out who these parents are. Of these kids who made him feel like this. I'm going to lose it." Lucas proclaimed.

"I need you to know. I didn't cheat on you. I couldn't do that."

"But i ran into Rachel. And i told her that i forgive her."

"And its for me. Not her." Lucas explained.

Brooke walked over once a doctor in a white coat came through the emergency doors.

"How is our son?" Brooke asked.

"We gave him a full examination. We intubated him. A breathing tube through the mouth. And he's on a venilator." The doctor explained.

"We need to see him." Lucas insisted.

"We'll keep the visit short." Brooke added in.

The doctor nodded his head in agreement and lead the way through the double doors.
