Victoria

That’s it. He’s never going to forgive me. We’ll never get past this because I never will myself. If I’d only said something, Olivia would be okay. And Elliot wouldn’t be unconscious on the floor, hospital staff surrounding him.

“We should go,” Quinn says, nudging my arm.

Stay with me.His voice sounds in my mind. But that’s not how he feels now. Everything is different.

“I can’t leave him.”

Asher steps in front of me. “Let’s go.”

“I should’ve told him,” I say, explaining the details to Asher. “I should’ve told.”

“Let’s just see how everything turns out with Olivia.”

My hands clutch my stomach as I double over. “You mean let’s see if Olivia dies. Either way, he’ll never forgive me and I’ll never forgive myself.”

Asher grips my arms, pulling me into a secure embrace. “Olivia is going to be okay, and so are you.”

But not Elliot. I need Elliot and Olivia to be okay. I need him. I need her. They need each other. And I need them.

Time keeps moving, but we don’t. We stand still as chaos ensues around us.
