For MrsDomii3295, hope you like it!:)
It has been six months since you and Alec started dating before something triggered you to doubt if he really is the one for you. To say Alec loves you is an understatement. He adores you, but you've never faced any major troubles before that fateful night.
It is the day before your final exam from the subject that you dislike the most. Your nerves are a mess and you are easily pissed off. But all that is nothing compared to the phone call you get in the late evening. It is your mom and you barely understand her through the tears and sobs when she tells you your pregnant sister is in a hospital.
"Why? She is in fourth month..."
Her answer breaks your entire world apart when she says a stranger has attacked your sister during her way back home from the store.
"Is she okay? Please tell me she is...She is in a c-critical condition?!"
Breath hitches in your throat as you try to comprehend your mother's words. Your older sister is in a critical condition because some maniac attacked her?
"Mom, I am coming home. I-I..."
But your mom orders you to stay in Los Angeles and focus on the finals. Easier said than done. As soon as you say your goodbyes, you burst into tears, leaning your head in your hands as uncontrollable sobs escape your lips. How could you possibly focus back to studying after hearing devastating news? Still you want to pass the exam with flying colors and prove your professor you are smart enough, so you somehow concentrate back on your notes.
The next morning looks like the whole world is against you. First you don't hear your alarm and you nearly miss the bus to the university. But before you actually get to the bus station, you nearly trip over Alec's hockey bag on the top of the staircase and if you did, you'd roll down the stairs and miss the exam entirely. Plus, Alec is asleep on the couch, so you have to move around quietly, yet fast. Him sleeping on the couch is his way of giving you time you need to study, so you can go to sleep whenever you want and he doesn't disturb you. But today that means you have to be really careful with plates and make no noise. Or at least make as little noise as possible.
"Damn it!" you curse when the plate nearly slips out of your grip and wait quietly for few second to hear whether Alec is awake. When you hear his soft snoring, you get back to preparing breakfast. Before you begin cooking, you check the wall clock and decide you have enough time to make yourself a toast with an egg. You put bread into a toaster and start preparing eggs. After few minutes you smell something burn: "Shit! Shit shit shit, could this day get any worse!?"
The answer is yes. You drop the plate and the sound of breaking porcelain wakes Alec up. He stumbles down the stairs into a kitchen, his hair sticking up: "Y/N? What are you doing? You okay?"
"Leave me alone, Alec! I am fine!"
"Okay, okay, sorry for asking. You want me to take you to class?"
"No. Just...leave me alone."
You look away from him and lean your palms on a counter before breaking into loud sobs. You hear a chair move and you can sense his intentions.
"Leave me alone, Alec. Don't touch me."
"Baby, why are you so tense? It's just an exam and you are smart. You will pass it with no problems."
"You have no idea, have you? This exam is the most important one I have to pass! If I don't pass this one everything will be for nothing. But how would you understand?"
