NICKI POV.

I sat up immediately as my phone rang  and answered it desperately hoping for news about Liv. "Hello?" I answered. "Hello miss Maraj, this is the Manhattan  Hospital and we have a young girl here and our thumbprint records tell us she's your daughter." My eyes widened as my heart filled up with hope. "Of course yes I'll be there ASAP, okay thank you so much bye"  I said as I changed my clothes. There was no time to shower or get ready I just grabbed a top and some tracksuit bottoms. Meek woke up and looked at me funny "Hey, where you going boo?" He asked licking his lips again.

"To get, see Liv, they found her at the hospital isn't that great!" I exclaimed eyes lighting up. "Orr.." He began "we could have a round two" he said kissing my neck. I smacked him away with my hand "NO." I said firmly "STOP, JUST STOP I KNOW WHAT YOURE DOING AND LIV IS MORE IMPORTANT" I said my volume increasing. "okay, Liv is more important" I said quietly realizing where I'd been going wrong all along. "Yeah?" "FUCK YOU THEN!" He yelled. "NO, FUCK YOU!" I said getting up and walking out of the room. "IM DONE WITH YOU AND WHEN IM BACK YOU BETTER BE GONE!" I screamed slamming8i the house door. I'm honestly not even phased about meek I'm just sad and guilty about my little Olive and I WILL make it up to her and that's a promise. I began to drive as quick as I could, fuck the speed limit I just need to get to the hospital.

SAFAREE POV

After the call from the hospital around 12am I got up and ran to the car. I was already in my clothes in hope that Id get news on her in the night. I'm just so glad they found her. I got to the hospital sat in the empty waiting room with my head in my hands. No one is supposed to be here until 6am but we have been given an exception due to the circumstances so it'll be just me,Liv and Nic until 6. That is if Onika cares enough to even show up. Around 5 minutes later I heard the shuffling of shoes across the floor then they stopped in front of me, Red Nike Jordans, identical to the pair I was wearing. I then saw a slender manicured hand reach out to the wall so she could lean on it for support. We stood in silence until I began to speak. "You told her that you wished you left her in Trinidad and then kicked her out" I said quietly. I was angry but I was more upset and didn't want to argue with her. "Yeah" she replied in a small sad tone, I missed her voice. "Why?" I said shedding tears "I don't know," she said in a wobbling voice. "Did you mean it?" I said crying silently. "No of course not, I'm just stupid, I'm a horrible mother and I'm supposed to bring her up not down and everything had been so stressful with meek and Us and  I never stopped to think about Liv at all" Nicki sobbed. "Hey calm down, don't say that about yourself it will be OK we'll work this out" i calmly replied. I stood up and looked at her beautiful tear streaked face and tilted her chin up. We both just looked at each other and leaned in closer and closer until our lips brushed before, nic started to blush mad hard. We hugged and Nic began to sob more. I picked her up bridal style and sat down sitting her on my lap, she wrapped her arms around my neck and cried, I wrapped my arms around her waist and sobbed quietly. "She'll be OK" I kept whispering in Nic's ear "I pray she will, we just need faith" Nika said. We embraced for the next half hour until the doctor came in "family of Olivia Maraj-Samuels?". The two of us automatically jumped away from each other "since there is no one else in here I'm guessing that's you two, he said. Helped us into the children's A and E and my heart stopped. Out of fear nic and I entwined our fingers together and Nicki squeezed my hand. We walked into the room and Nicand I began to shed tears because we'd never seen Liv in this state before. "She's is in a coma  that could range from a week to 10 months long" the doctor stated

NICKI POV

"she can hear you when you talk to her but can't speak to you or move" he said. He then began to do tests on Liv, my heart broke seeing her in the hospital bed tied up to all those tubes. "I hate to say this but she is in critical condition and it is unlikely she will live" the doctor sadly said making me shake uncontrollably. Safaree rubbed my arm to make my calm down. "You may stay here with her for the night, and press this button if you see her state worsen, we will check up on her every 15 minutes anyway" the doctor Said leaving. "Hi Liv, please wake up Mommy is sorry, I would do anything to make you laugh again, you can stay up for however long you want."  I began crying "we can have a mother daughter day everyday" I continued sobbing. "I'm sorry I don't want you to have to hear me cry, im just worried and I miss you already mommas baby, I promise I will never leave your side, you are the air that I breathe" I shed tears before holding her hand and caressing her cheek. Safaree was just sobbing and missing her cheek repeatedly "Daddy loves you to the moon and back" he said. "You are my world" he said breaking down. I wiped away his,tears and he wiped away mine we gripped each others hands and inhaled.

LIV POV.

I woke up again in the dark unable to see anything. It was as if I was trapped in a room and couldn't get  out. Mom and dad began to talk to me and I began to cry- except that i couldn't cry or move -.- Mom and Dad then began to cry all over me and I couldnt hug them back or anything, I started to wonder if Mom had quit drugs, left meek or even got back together with Dad. But I may never know because I can't ask because I CANT FUCKING MOVE OR SPEAK. The doctors had said earlier before mom and dad where here that I have a very small chance of surviving, which scares me a lot as I don't think I could cope without one of Moms angry road rage moments or Dads obnoxious shouting when he watches NBA or even Mom or Dads PDAs (Public displays of affection). Okay what am I saying!? I won't miss the PDAs. But I am so terrified and I pray that god brings me back into the world soon. Suddenly sleep grabbed me from my imagination and tossed me around pulling me and my thoughts back into quietness.

NO ONES POV

Nicki fell cuddled into Safaree's chest and they both fell asleep as they held onto Liv's hand.
