Who ever did this to my Taylor, I will hunt you, I will find you, and I will kill you.

Shane's POV

I sat in the waiting room for what felt like hours until the nurse said it was okay for me to go and see her. I walked in and saw her body, covered in bandages and had wires going through her arm. She had a breathing mask on even though she could breath without it. I walked to her side and held her hand.

"Has she been responsive?"

"Not yet, but she is breathing by herself. Would you like to spend some more time with her or can we take you into questioning now? It won't take more than 5 or so minutes, depending on your answers."

I looked over at her. Her eyes were shut softly and her cheeks were a slight shade of red.

"Let's do this now. The sooner the better." We walked out and I took one last glance at her. We walked into a room with a table and three chairs. We sat down and her started with the most important question at the time.

"Do you know what happened? Everything counts so even the slightest detail could make a difference."

So I told them about the note and the phone call.

"She even said that when I got their she said to hurry because she didn't know what time they got back."

"Thank you. Now some more basic questions. Whats her name and age?"

"Her name is Taylor Ariza. She's I think 17. Her birthday's sometime in February."

"Okay." He wrote some notes down. "Thank you very much Mr.Dawson. You may leave now."

I left the room and walked back into Taylor's room. I grabbed her hand an held it tight. I started to cry, no too bad, but only enough to really matter, to REALLY feel. I calmed down and looked around the room. I found her clothes and looked for her phone. My hands felt across the cold glass covering of her phone. I pulled it out and unlocked it, since their was no password. I needed to call Rita. I feel like she needs to know even though they were on a no talk terms. I found her contact and hit call.

Ring ring ring

"Hello?"

"Hi is this Rita?"

"Yes it is and why are you calling from my friends phone?

"I'm Shane."

Silence.

"Oh, um, hi but uh, why?"

"Taylor's in the hospital."

"WHAT? I SWEAR TO GOD..."

"No, no I have done nothing of the sort. I would never harm her."

"Good. So are you guys just friends?"

"No, we're dating now."

"Finally! She kissed you didn't she?"

"Yes, um how do you know all this?"

"We tell each other everything. And I can't blame her for kissing you, your pretty cute!"

"How do you know what I look like?"

"She sent me a picture on your date night. You know, that night with Grease and her almost kissing you?"

"Yes I remember. Anyways I don't know what happened, but she called me from an ally way and told me to help her. I called 911 and now I'm in the room with her."

"Has she responded at all?"

"Not that I know of. I had to go for questioning so I don't know if she stirred or not. Hey, how much did she tell you when we first met?"

"She told me that she liked you. That you were smart and funny and hot. When she sent me a picture of you I said you were cute. She said you were hers."

AW! I feel so much better now, but I feel bad that I still let her get hurt.

"She really said that?"

"Yep. Hey I've gotta go, tell Taylor to call me when she wakes up. Okay?"

"Okay. I'm putting your contacts into my phone so I can call you from their."

"Okay. Later."

"Later."

I hung up and added the contacts. I walked back over to her bedside and put her phone on the nightstand. I grabbed her hand gave it a kiss, and continued to hold it. I dozed off next to her, never letting go.

Taylor's POV

I sat their crying.

"We'll be back."

They stormed off and got in their car. My phone suddenly played somewhere only we know, we had both set it for each others ringtones. Shane. I answered and I heard him say hello. All I could muster out was; "Help me." He started questioning me where I was, and was here sooner than I thought

"Tea? TAYLOR?!"

"Shane, I'm here Shane."

He ran over and called the police.

"What happened?"

I started dozing off, he was saying something, but I blacked out.

(30 minutes later)

Where am I? I couldn't open my eyes, but I could hear everything. And what I hear s not happy, it was Shane, crying. I could feel too, and he was holding my hand. I felt Shane get up, and I heard his pacing feet on the floor. I heard some noise of like cloth. Then heard a phone unlock, MY phone unlock. What the hell are you doing Shane? I then heard a faint hello, like how you hear someone when they're on the phone.

"Hey, are you Rita?"

SHANE!!! Why did he call Rita? Of all people? He probably assumed we were best friends, which we are.

"Taylor's in the hospital." He started to explain and then he got more into a different topic; me.

"No, we're dating."

I loved hearing that, but I hope she didn't tell everyone else.

"Hey, how much did she tell you when we first met?"

Shit.

"She really said that? Okay, later." And they hung up. He sat back down and set my phone on the stand next to me. He grabbed my hand and kissed it, kinda like in romantic movies, and he never let me go. I started to fall asleep again, hoping I would snore so Shane knew I was okay.

Shane's POV

I woke up next to a hospital bed. Taylor was in it. Oh yeah, I hoped falling asleep would make it all be fake, but I guess this was real. Wait, what's that noise? SNORING!!! SHES SNORING!!! Good, at least she's breathing on mostly her own now. I checked the time, almost 3. Wow, I slept through the whole school. CRAP! That's what I never did, call the school and tell them we're not going to be their today. I'll call tomorrow. As I went to get up and grab some lunch, because lets face it, I was still hungry from this morning, she rolled over and moaned.

"Taylor?"

Was she dreaming?

"Shane... where are you?"

"I'm right here Tea." I rushed to her side, but her eyes were still closed. She had a scared look in her face, like she was going through something... was she seeing what happened over again? A tear fell from her eyes.

"Shane, I need you!" She was starting to get loud.

"Taylor! Taylor wake up!!!" I started to shake her. "Taylor!"

She shot up with a jerk.

"Shane?"

"I'm right here."

"Oh my god, I saw it happen again, it was terrible."

I grabbed her and hugged the living shit out of her.

"I know, I know. Are you okay?"

"I don't know, where am I though?"

"Your in the hospital. How much do you remember?"

"I remember up until I blacked out in the ally way."

"Good. Your going to be..." I was cut off by the doctor walking in.

"Oh good your awake. The police officer should be here to question you shortly."

"Questioning?"

"Yeah," I started, "That's what I was just about to tell you. I was questioned and now they need to ask you some stuff like what happened. What did happen anyway?"

Just the, an officer walked in. "May I please speak with Taylor alone?"
