Fine. Apparently, I couldn't leave Maya dead in the last imagine. It was supposed to be a sad imagine which means it worked, but I have this super magical power where I can bring dead characters back to life! That's a lot of HOOPLA for ya! Alright, so here's part two of the imagine due to peer pressure...
PS. I'm totally okay with this because it means y'all read these imagines and because I don't want the baby to die either. I couldn't never kill a baby in a story.
PPS. The italics are Hunter's thoughts. The rest is more of a narrator.
PPPS. The very first thing is where we left off in the last imagine.
***************************************
"They're all here for me. Are they really worried or are they worried about my baby? I can't do this anymore. This is for the best. I have to go and I have to leave them. I can't stay here and deal with the hate from my parents and from the fans. Ainsley loves Hunter and Hunter loves her too. I know it. Once I'm gone, everything will be like it was before. It'll be like I never happened. I was never in their lives.
"She won't make it," was the last thing you heard from Kate."
* * * * * * * * *
I wish she could see all the people that are here for her. Even some of the fans are outside waiting to hear news about Maya and the baby. The whole band is here too along with Dann and a few other people. Kate, Ainsley, and Melissa are here too. Carrie's outside in the hallway crying her eyes out and Mike is trying so hard to console her. Taylor's lost her giddiness and Ed, well let's just say that he's not in the best shape either. Everyone's eyes are red especially mine.
The pain on his face was visible. Everyone noticed how he desperately wanted to be by your side. Hunter wanted to help you. Deep down inside, he knew that he could help you but he was starting to lose hope.
"Hunter, you have to at least eat something," Melissa said as she placed a hand on his shoulder.
"Not hungry," Hunter whispered. His voice was almost inaudible. Melissa looked back at Andy who was standing in the corner and she shook her head with a worried expression.
"Hunter, you have to eat. We let anything happen to you too," Andy said and Hunter shrugged. It's almost like he didn't care. He didn't care about anything. Not even about his own health. Ainsley shuffled into the room without a word.
"Please Hunter, don't do it for us or for Maya. Do it for yourself," Melissa began and Hunter was even listening, but the sound of your name set something off. His tears were beginning to fall again. Hearing your name was something he couldn't handle at the moment.
I can't lose my best friend and the girl I love. Why does this have to happen to me? Did I do something wrong? Am I doing something wrong? Do I not show her that I love her as much as I can. She's been on this hospital bed for a week now and she hasn't woken up. I know she can hear me though but I don't know what to say. I know she won't believe me. She never does but I don't understand why she's with me if she doesn't believe me. She's so insecure and she's always putting herself down.
"Come on, Hunt. Doc says she's perfectly fine," Ainsley said, "The baby's even fine."
"Won't wake," Hunter said. After a week of sobbing and not talking, it was as though his mind shut down. He forgot how to speak in complete sentences and nothing made sense to him. It would take at least five minutes to answer a question or a comment. He hasn't moved from the seat that he sat in from the very first day. Not to mention that he doesn't have the best hygiene after spending a week with you in the horrid hospital room.
Ainsley rested her head on his shoulder but slowly pulled away, "Uh, yeah... You, come with me. Mel and Andy will watch over Maya. They'll call us if anything happens."
Slowly, Ainsley managed to get Hunter out of the chair. He had dark circles under his eyes, bloodshot red eyes, ruffled dull hair and a very pale face, "Maya..."
"She won't be going anywhere. She'll be here when we come back. Come on," Ainsley said as she pulled Hunter towards the door. Melissa and Andy were staying to watch over Maya.
I don't understand why she would do this to herself. Why would she hurt herself? I know that's she happy, it's just that every time her parents come... They know how to make her feel so horrible and they can get under her skin. She's stressed and her depression has gotten worse. It's killing me like it's killing her. Literally. She's thinner than before and her face has lost some of it's color. She won't even smile but to me, she'll always be beautiful no matter what.
Hunter and Ainsley walked out into the cool winter breeze. Ainsley quickly handed him a jacket and draped it over his shoulders. She loved this weather and so did Hunter, but right now everything seemed so grey to him. Hunter didn't have the strength to do anything. He could barely keep himself up and would occasionally wobble from side to side and trip over his feet.
Ainsley drove to the motel where everyone was staying at the moment and helped Hunter inside. She made him sit on the bed and he looked up at her lazily. He only thing that he could possibly think about was you. Every little did reminded him of you.
"Listen to me, you have to go shower and eat something. As soon as you, I'll take you back with her. This isn't like you and I know for a fact that she doesn't want to see you like this at all. Maya knows---"
If she leaves me, I'll never be able to find someone like her. She's so special and unique to me. I love how she can quickly turn her frown into a smile. She's so cute when she gets mad because her cheeks turn bright red and her nose kind of wiggles and scrunches up. Her laugh is the most beautiful thing ever! It's a kind of laugh that makes you want to join in even though she didn't say the joke right.
He had blocked Ainsley's talking and all he could see was you standing there. He felt like he was back home with you and the baby. He wanted to go back home. Suddenly, he was pushed into the bathroom and pushed into the bathtub. He felt water splashing his face and it was almost massaging his extremely tense body.
His clothes were soaking up the warm water. Thankfully Ainsley had taken off his worn out Converse and they weren't getting wet. Hunter finally realized how horrible he smelled and quickly showered after peeling off his wet clothes but would stop every minute or so to take in the warm water. He was much more relaxed know and the shower seemed to have boosted his confidence.
Her bright red lips. Her thick luminous black hair. Her big brown Bambi like eyes. She was my princess and my personal kind of storm. The best kind of storm I could ever have. She seriously knew how blow me away every time. Everything little thing she did was magic. I'll never understand how she does and I love how I can never understand myself but as soon as I'm with her... I know who I am. I know where I belong. She's my heart, my soul, and my love.
The pain was less visible on his face, but it was still there. He got out of the shower and dried his hair then wrapped the towel around his torso, "Clothes on the counter out here!"
Hunter thanked Ainsley and walked out and found his clothes folded neatly on the counter. Ainsley was no where to be seen and he was relieved that he could change into fresh clothes in peace. He slipped on his boxers and shimmied into his khaki shorts. He wore a blue polo for a shirt and sandals on his feet.
It's like she knew how long it took him to shower and change into his clothes, Ainsley came waltzing into the room. She was singing "Don't Ya" and was making weird faces.
"I brought you a sandwich from Subway and coffee from Starbucks."
"Pumpkin spice?"
"Yeah, fatty," she said jokingly and for the first time in what seemed like years, Hunter laughed. Ainsley was surprised and relieved at hearing his laughter, but she felt like she was home again. Home with her best friend, "Just eat, or better yet, you can eat on the way there."
The gleam was back in his eyes. He didn't want to go back to the hospital but knowing that you were there gave him hope that you were safe. He happily nodded and followed Ainsley to the car where he immediately sat in the passenger's seat. He opened the sandwich and he finally realized how hungry he was. He quickly devoured the sandwich and the coffee was gone in less than two minutes, but then again he did love to eat.
I wish she would just wake up. I want her to stay with me forever. She can't leave me and she can't take our baby with her. I still remember how nervous she was as soon as she found out that she was pregnant. Her big chocolate brown eyes were filled with excitement and worry. I remember her voice cracking as she said my name. She was afraid and I knew that. I felt it. There wasn't a thing she could hide from me. It was truly impossible.
He threw his trash away as soon as he got to the hospital and quickly raced Ainsley up to your room. She beat him by going up the stairs, but he also had to sign a few things for some fans. He couldn't say no to fans. He walked into your hospital room. Melissa and Andy were still there watching you with Ainsley in the room. Andy looked at Hunter with a worried look. Hunter noticed that the doctor was there and didn't say a word.
She can't go. Not yet. I can't stay here without her. The baby, Maya, my family, and music are my life. I can't live without any of them. If she's gone, if the baby's gone... There's no point in being here, but I know she'll pull through. She's a strong girl and that baby, my baby...will be just like her mother or his mother. A fighter and a lover. She has to make it because she's going to make it.
The doctor left but Hunter didn't hear what he said at all. He immediately jumped to your side and took your hand. He gently rubbed your hand tracing the veins on your hand and kissed it. He looked up at you when you moved your fingers. You had wrapped your fingers around his hand.
He was wearing a huge smile full of hope. The only thing was he wanted was to see you smile again. Hunter didn't notice but the whole band was here and Dann Huff. Taylor Swift, Carrie Underwood, Blake Shelton, Miranda Lambert Danielle Bradberry, Easton Corbin and so many others had come.
Hunter was shocked to see them all. Everyone was asking each other if they had heard any news about you. Everyone was clueless but shocked and filled with relief when they saw you.
"Shhh, give her a minute..." everyone whispered.
Hunter had his full attention on you. You looked around at everyone who was here and couldn't help but smile. A tear of happiness fell down your cheek. You never thought that this many people cared about you.
"Hey beautiful. I missed you."
She was back. I finally had my girl back. The girl who would be the mother of my child. My love and my baby. Both of them have made it out alive. I knew it. They're both fighters at heart. I knew that would make it in the end.
"I missed you too."

Author's Note:
Ew. I'm not a fan of these, but whatever. For those of you who are new to reading this imagine, (Imagine #50 & Part Two), I want to say that this is only an except of what's to come. This imagine was edited in order to fit a certain request, but if you want to read more then you should read "Undercover Hero" and then "Mission Impossible." A third book will be published in order to finish the story of-- Well, I can't give spoilers so... The only reason I brought this up was due to the fact that I get so many people asking or demanding that I make a fanfic based off the imagine... So yeah, I made a fanfic about it. You'll love it. I promise and you'll also need tissues.
All the love.
