HAYDEN'S POV

70Please respect copyright.PENANAq0uwAjVF2f
Five hours later the doctor had informed that Elizabeth was fully awake but in bad shape.
70Please respect copyright.PENANARwupHWwBCU
I ignored his warning and barged in like a wild animal.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAxaZSHrqc8p
I spotted Elizabeth sitting on the bed she had curled into a ball. Her head buried in her lap she was sobbing uncontrollably.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA5tcegvRnY3
Guilt sliced through me like a sharp knife.
I needed to make sure that she was okay.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAKDulcLhidB
I reached out to touch her.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAOjlSygqAFP
Once my hand made contact with her skin her head immediately jerked up in alertness.
70Please respect copyright.PENANApNXN71BnEA
"Don't touch me!" She screamed.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA3gB1C4I9a9
Her lips were trembling.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAlW8EJ3tp1t
It was all fault.
70Please respect copyright.PENANADh8zut8uwr
"Please don't hurt me..."
70Please respect copyright.PENANA9YUYGbM4Ck
I backed away as guilt consumed me whole. I recalled Crystal's words.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAsqkvqgC3yu
"I'll teach her a lesson, leave the planning to me."
70Please respect copyright.PENANACZNEjim0Tz
When Elizabeth started having a panic attack three nurses rushed in accompanying the doctor.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAx7Zz1N82UY
They tied Elizabeth against the bed because she was struggling and she was being violent.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAMHj0zZYR9B
I just stood there staring. I was stuck.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAIoY2UybQjn
The doctor injected her with something and she slowly closed her eyes.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAaA5sIFHpKM
He walked towards me.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAv6KdP9wsWl
"She's traumatized Hayden and her case is very delicate. She continues to be in shock for much longer. She'll be unstable and she will need to be put in a mental health facility."
70Please respect copyright.PENANAWA7hJ7eXuR
My heart tightened in my chest.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAmVc0TeB7hU
"What?"
70Please respect copyright.PENANA9gB5qsRr4q
The doctor nodded quietly.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA2MYZU6nej3
"How do I get her out of her shock?" I asked curiously. I got Elizabeth in this mess and I'm going to get her out at any fucking cost.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA3RTJabRmJW
The doctor gave me a smile.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAd3yxnKm38E
He liked my guts.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA8Auv6PYyJW
"Make her remember about her positive memories that will bring her in terms of reality. Mostly let her cry, trust me it will help."
70Please respect copyright.PENANAgJuHEEuJjb
I nodded quietly.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAXpF5jIeLu7
The hospital notified Elizabeth's mother to come to the hospital.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAa8MTCwasjx
She would be coming soon. And that was my cue to leave.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAZOi1AvHooy
I left the hospital and went back to college. I'm sure I would find Crystal there when it was time to confront her.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAN1Wv4pzfjR
An hour later I was dragging Crystal behind the gate where we couldn't be seen.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAy8G8IHXzLu
"Hey let go of me!" She snapped angrily and I released her.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAul3fZcpHRy
"Did you send Mark and his friends after Elizabeth?"
70Please respect copyright.PENANA3E8o7wgNv9
She frowned.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAItbQ0XueQp
" Answer me."
" Yes I did it's not a big deal" Crystal replies coolly.
70Please respect copyright.PENANACDkb3ypiXM
I slapped her across the face.
She gasped in shock and held her sore cheek.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA5WvImgUsxT
I gripped her shoulders tightly digging my nails into her flesh making sure to leave the bruises I saw on Elizabeth's body.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAliGuikbRKN
She winced in pain and her voice was filled with fear.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAcEqKltqecH
"Hayden you're hurting me..."
70Please respect copyright.PENANAbzMkjmT7v4
"Are you crazy Crystal? getting Elizabeth fucking raped by Mark and his fucking friends wasn't a good idea!"
70Please respect copyright.PENANAnOPLfHU3YD
Crystal's face went pale.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAj8uwb47KXI
" Raped by Mark?" She repeated in shock.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAOT6cN6ZBb7
"Oh my God that's not fault Hayden I didn't know that Mark would take things personally. I'm a girl as well Hayden I would never get Elizabeth raped" she sobs.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAfiU7L9MZbG
I released her.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA6zJyrrmuuf
70Please respect copyright.PENANAl7wr2Yx5pi
" Well your plan your stupid plan backfired and Elizabeth is traumatized all this and she's in a fucking hospital tied to a bed because she won't stop screaming."
70Please respect copyright.PENANAPYs8JB3jHV
Crystal flinched and her teary eyes met mine and she gave me a taunting look.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAgqZehwULaD
"My stupid plan?"
70Please respect copyright.PENANAgFu9CK52xW
"Don't you fucking put the problem on me Hayden you were also a part of this it's also your fault!" Crystal yells and storms off leaving me feeling like shit.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAJ0S2Dh2dRr
She was right.
70Please respect copyright.PENANATMsryVZ0RO
This was all my fault.
I was more guilty than Crystal.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA7mT4C5WkT0
I pushed the wall in anger and it cracked.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA4lpfWni1U1
She was right. I'm also at fault.
I left and went back home.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAVKKQFYAisJ
70Please respect copyright.PENANAN8ajnspecb
Everybody knows my name now
But somethin' 'bout it still feels strange
Like looking' in a mirror, tryna steady yourself
And seein' somebody else
And everything is not the same now
It feels like all our lives have changed
Maybe when I'm older, it'll all calm down
But it's killin' me now
70Please respect copyright.PENANAnykG3fBOWD
What if you had it all
But nobody to call?
Maybe then you'd know me
'Cause I've had everything
But no one's listening
And that's just fuckin' lonely
70Please respect copyright.PENANAqTkc2I4sYC
70Please respect copyright.PENANAczvc714vqt
I'm so lo-o-o-onely
Lo-o-o-onely
70Please respect copyright.PENANA0RfsDl8lfE
Everybody knows my past now
Like my house was always made of glass
And maybe that's the price you pay
For the money and fame at an early age
And everybody saw me sick
And it felt like no one gave a shit
They criticized the things I did as an idiot kid
70Please respect copyright.PENANANA35ftCkij
What if you had it all
But nobody to call?
Maybe then you'd know me
'Cause I've had everything
But no one's listening
And that's just fuckin' lonely
70Please respect copyright.PENANAWkE1fXhcta
I'm so lo-o-o-onely

VERONA'S POV ( ELIZABETH'S MOTHER)
70Please respect copyright.PENANAcQnO8Qas4d
70Please respect copyright.PENANAhRPWLxUNvA
When the hospital called and told me what had happened to my daughter I was already in the car driving to the same hospital.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAtzZl4DceBm
Tears rolled down my cheeks.
Some guys wanted to hurt my baby girl.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAwKQxA0nvGW
When I arrived at the hospital I was already crying my eyes out.
70Please respect copyright.PENANA66OYP49SSu
I already lost Azalea. I couldn't lose Elizabeth as well; she was the only thing that kept me going.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAWktaEBbIP2
She must survive.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAhU6is6ViPU
The nurse had offered me a glass of water I had flatly refused her offer. I just wanted to see my daughter.
70Please respect copyright.PENANASk2YAHQsjF
The doctor was still checking her.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAkPsVMGjnp0
The nurse told me that she had a lot of bruises on her body and that her blouse was torn but there was no sign of intercourse.
70Please respect copyright.PENANATOCiDQJRHA
They didn't rape her.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAvH0OOl7Pt1
But their intentions were clear.
The police were already investigating the case. A guy who brought Elizabeth had told them what happened.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAUUbcnNEg8q
I wanted to personally thank him but the nurse told me that he had left an hour ago.
70Please respect copyright.PENANABzksK8j5LC
He saved Elizabeth and I owned him my life.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAYT2wuoomgB
70Please respect copyright.PENANADuNcuKLCwZ
A girl's screams filled the hospital halls and I immediately recognized the voice it was Elizabeth.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAthLztqePF3
The nurse tried to stop me but I pushed her away and barged into the room where they were keeping Elizabeth.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAFdvfNOYPTW
The mere sight of Elizabeth sent me into a dark tunnel and I broke down crying.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAA5thTxPtXG
"Why was the universe against me and my only child? I sobbed miserably.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAnrdtp1GIo0
I couldn't bear the pain.
I rushed out of the room and the doctor followed me.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAmZ5fd1NsN0
"Ms. Verona please wait!"
70Please respect copyright.PENANAl6iGGG4V6S
I stopped in my tracks.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAmUyoQ1sj6b
And I faced him.
70Please respect copyright.PENANAmDSZRByUJd
He wrapped his arms around me and sank into his embrace.
70Please respect copyright.PENANABD68yxJuwB
"She'll fine trust me" he said firmly.
