"Hey," Camila mumbles tiredly as she wakes up to find Marley sitting beside her.

Marley looked up from her phone. "Hey." She smiled softly.

Shifting, Camila wraps her arm around Marley but doesn't sit up or anything.

"Mom ran off yesterday? Remi says she hasn't come back." Marley turned to look at Camila. "What happened?"

"She's upset that we can't go back to the way we were, because I love you." Camila mumbles, her head was killing her.

"Oh." Marley looked down at her hands.

"She just needs time to cool off." Alice said from the doorway, Kendall in her arms.

Shifting, Camila releases a soft groan. "Door," she mumbles, she could hear everything.

Marley looked up. "What?" She asked in confusion.

"Loud," Camila's words were becoming slurred.

"Loud?" Marley asked, growing even more confused.

Camila's eyes rolled to the back of her head and she began seizing instead of responding.

Marley's eyes widened. "Call an ambulance." She said to her sister.

Alice quickly rushed off to find the phone.

Marley rolled Camila onto her side.

Camila continued seizing for a few minutes before her body relaxed.

"Mom?" Marley asked, brows furrowed.

Camila didn't respond, her eyes fluttering closed.

"Mom? Don't fall asleep." Marley shook her mother's shoulder.

Forcing her eyes open, Camila looks up at Marley weakly.

"Can you hear me?" Marley asked.

Nodding her head, Camila reaches for Marley's hand, her eyes fluttering shut once again.

"The ambulance is on its way." Alice said, coming into the room. "It's five minutes away."

"Thank you," Marley breathes out.

Alice nodded.

Marley looks back at Camila, running her fingers through her mom's hair. "I know you don't approve of my relationship with Mama, but she makes me happy."

Alice adjusted Kendall in her arms. "It's not that I don't approve... it's just... I don't think you see how much it's actually hurting our parents."

Biting her lip, Marley looks toward Alice. "I'm sorry."

"Why did you do it?" Alice asked.

"We fell in love." Marley says softly.

"You fell in love?" Alice rolled her eyes and scoffed. "Why?"

Marley shrugs her shoulders. "It just happened."

"It can't have just happened." Alice said.

"Paramedics are here!" Silas calls from downstairs.

"Bring them up." Alice called back.

When Camila woke up both Lauren and Marley were beside her hospital bed.

They were both curled up on the uncomfortable chairs, eyes closed.

Groaning softly, Camila tries to sit up. "What's going on?"

"Don't get up." Marley yawned, rubbing her eyes with her hands.

Laying back on the bed, Camila slowly relaxes. "What happened?"
