Trents POV:
It's been 2 days since the incident and nothing had gotten better. I watch over Shaimas limped body as she lays on the hospital bed. Her mum on one side holding her hand as she is fast asleep. Myself on the other squeezing her hand hoping to feel something back. Mason had been knocked out on the sofa chair with Declan. They both refused to leave and well I couldn't blame them. Shaima has been in their life since forever, they're family. I hear my phone buzzing on the table next to me and see Andy calling. I accept it and his face pops on the screen with Rachel next to him.
"Hey, any progress?" Andy asks softly and I shake my head.
"No, she hasn't woken up yet and well the doctors don't know when she will either" I run my fingers through my hair
"Trent, she will be fine. Shaima is in everyone's prayers. She will get through this." Rachel tries to reassure me and I give her a soft smile
"Thank you Rachel, it means a lot" I look over to Shaima again and back to my phone. "They caught her dad hey"
"Bro that's great!" Andy basically shouted.
"Ya they looked back at the footage and saw that he was the last with her and took him into custody last night. Maria told us when she got in this morning"
"I'm glad, no one should treat their daughter like that. It's just disgusting, Shaima should've never been put through any sort of abuse from that man" Rachel says in disgust.
"Well it's a good thing she won't be anymore" I sigh in relief.
"Well we will let you go but did you want me to bring you anything tomorrow? Food? Clothes?" Andy asks.
"Clothes would be great" I give him a soft smile and he nods. We say our goodbyes and I end the call. I get up from my side of the bed and place a kiss on Shaimas forehead. I leave the room and start to walk around and try to clear my head.
I'm worried that she will be hurt, that she will be scared from this and not be the same again. I'm ready to be that person to help her go through it I just hope that she will allow me to do so. I stop by the big glass window holding 12 baby baskets behind it. I look over them and see all the tiny little humans and couldn't help but smile. Reminds me of the fair when I mentioned having kids with her and she told me to put a ring on her finger first. I can't wait to make her mine forever. I smile and feel a hand on my shoulder. I look up and see Mason behind me.
"You okay?" He asks
"I'm trying to be, I have to be for her. But I'm scared Mason. What if she doesn't wake up?" I confess
"Trent, she's gonna be fine. Look at everyone around her. She has so many people who are wishing for her health and all we can really do is wait."
"Well I hate waiting," I let out a laugh and so does Mason
"Trust me so do I" he pats my back and we start heading to the room. "I don't know if she told you this but before you guys got into the big fight before she left, Jonathan came over and was responsible for her ghosting us that week. He hurt her, and well because you didn't answer her calls, she couldn't tell you anything."
"Damn it Mason, that makes me feel even worst," I groan "I should've been there for her I just feel like I was a shitty friend during that time"
"Well you were a shitty friend" he laughs and I glare at him. "But you are making it up to her now. She loves you Trent, she always has and always will."
"I'm sorry Mason, I know that hurts for you to say"
"Trent I knew you guys were meant to be together before you guys even did. I love Shaima, I will always love Shaima. But at the end of the day she's happy with you. I'm just glad to be there for her even if that's just being her best friend. But your guys love it's something else"
"It's means a lot coming from you Mason I really does. Trust me, I'm not planning on hurting her anytime soon."
"Good cause Declan and I will beat your ass" Mason smiles and let's out a laugh as he heads back into the room. I shake my head and laugh as I follow in.
I look back over to Shaima and see her eyes still shut. I sigh as I take my seat. Maria was now awake and shot me a small smile "you okay sweetie?" She asks me
"I'll be okay when she's awake" I look over to her and squeeze her hand. "Please Shaima wake up"

Shaimas POV:
I open my eyes slowly to see a bright light coming from outside the door. One hand free but the other grasped in Trents. My mum and Raph on the long couch on the side. Declan and Mason on the other couch trying to fit without falling off. I let out a soft laugh and look back down at Trent. I place my free hand on the side of his face and rub my thumb on it before moving it towards his hair and playing with it. A small smile appears on his face and he starts to wake up. His eyes open and immediately you can see the excitement on his face. He stands up and pulls me into a hug. I laugh into his chest and let myself be embraced by his body.
"I'm so glad you are okay," he mumbles and pulls apart and places his hands on the side of my face. "I love you so much Shaima"
"I love you to Trent," I smile and he places a soft kiss on my lips. When we pull apart my face falls thinking about the previous nights incident. "Trent my dad..."
"Stop," he cuts me off "he's gone, they caught him Shaima he's not gonna hurt you anymore," he smiles and instantly tears started to form in my eyes.
"Trent are you serious?"
"He can not hurt you anymore, and that I can promise" I smile and let the tears fall from my eyes. Trent rubs his thumb across my cheeks and laughs "Now let's make sure you get enough rest and get you back onto your feet" he smiles and I nod.
"Watch this," I laugh and grab one of the pillows from behind me. I chuck it towards Mason and Declan happily waking them up. At first they were confused but their eyes light up as they see me. Mason immediately runs over and pulls me into a hug followed by Declan. Trent wakes up my mum and she starts crying which of course makes me start to ball. Knowing that we are safe was the best feeling anyone can ever give me. My mother is my rock in this life and I wasn't gonna let anyone hurt her pure soul anymore than what was already done. I look over to Trent as my mum embraces me once again with Raph on the other side of my body doing the same. He smiles over and mouths 'I love you'. My cheeks turn red and I smile and do the same.
Trent John Alexander-Arnold, I love you with all my heart.

Shaima: so I just wanted to clear some things up. All my life, I've been going through physical abuse by someone who I thought loved me because he was my blood. Someone who was responsible for giving me life. I thought he had loved me and my mum. But I was wrong. I wanted to say, if you are that one person who has been or is going through something like this that you shouldn't be afraid to speak up. I wasn't brave enough to do so, but I'm hoping that you are. Take this time and talk to someone. Tell them about it, trust me it helps 100%. Don't make the same mistake again, don't make the same mistake that I did. No one deserves to go through any kind of trauma in their life and today is the day you do something about it. There are people who love and care about you and they want nothing but the best. So please, speak out. Don't be afraid. I Love You🤍
