Sierras pov
I was currently in Veronica's car In the passenger seat with Steph in the back. I sighed and looked out the window watching the trees quickly disappear as we passed through them. I lost myself in my thoughts as I replayed the events that just occurred.

Flashback
The whole crowd was cheering in excitement and happiness when our team had a hold of the puck or more specifically Aaron had a hold of the puck. He skated skilfully past his opponents, getting closer and closer to the goals. I was chanting along with the crowd his name in hopes to encourage him to score another goal. From that point on everything happened so fast. One of the opposite teams player, who had the name 'Andrew' on the back of his jersey slammed into his side. The force was so big that it sent Aaron flying across the ice and he landed with a big thud. I will never forget the pain I heard in his voice when he screamed in agony while holding his leg.

End of flashback

I was brought out of my thoughts when I noticed we had reached the hospital. I opened the car door and ran inside where I met Alice sitting in the waiting room. When she noticed me she stood up and walked over to me.

"Oh Sierra you're here" she said embracing me in a hug.
"Is he ok?" I asked

"I'm not sure. We just got here ten minutes ago and they haven't come out of his room since. They made me wait out here" she shakily said

"Oh God" I muttered

"He was in so much pain that he couldn't even talk back to me in the ambulance" she sighed

"Don't worry. Aaron is a fighter and he will get through this" I reassured her. She smiled at me nodding and then sat down.

I sighed and sat down with Steph and Veronica. About ten minutes later the doctor came out and we immediately stood up.

"Your son is fine but he does have major injuries. His right leg is broken along with a few ribs" he said

"Oh my God" Alice gasped.
"He is actually very lucky. We have had hockey players come in and some have had to quit playing all together. He will have to stay overnight but he can leave tomorrow morning" the doctor said.

"Can we see him?" I asked
"Yes but visiting hours is over in thirty minutes so just be quick" he smiled and walked away.

We walked into his room where he was laying in the bed. His leg was in a cast but I've no idea what they've done to his ribs.

"Oh my baby" Alice cried
"Mom I'm fine. It didn't even hurt" he said trying to act tough.
"That's not what it looked like back there" I smirked walking over to him
"Shut up" he said pouting making me laugh. He then looked over at Veronica and Steph.

"Hey guys" he said
"Hey how are you feeling?" Steph asked
"I'm fine. I'll live" he laughed

We talked for a while, mostly about the game and how good the players were. The door then opened and we turned our heads to see a nurse holding a clipboard.

"Hi Aaron how are you feeling?" She asked. Everyone seems to love that question today.
"Good" he simply answered
"Good, well visiting hours are over but we will allow one person to stay with him" she said

"Sierra will you stay with me?" He asked
"Are you sure? I'm sure your mom wants to stay with you" I nervously asked
"Oh don't be silly. You can stay with him. Plus I need to do some cooking for when your father comes home" Alice said

Wasn't his dad meant to be here today? Maybe his flight got delayed or something.

"Ok well In that case, of course I'll stay." I smiled. The rest bid their goodbyes before going, leaving just the two of us in the room.

"Come here" Aaron said scooting over to the right side of the bed making room for me.

"What? No what if I hurt you or something?" I said biting my lower lip
"You aren't going to hurt me now come here" he laughed

I hesitantly took off my shoes and then slipped into the bed with him. I turned my body to the side, laying my head on his chest and he pulled me closer to him by wrapping his left hand around my shoulders.

"So how are you actually feeling and don't lie to me" I warned. I knew he was lying when everyone else asked that question.

"Like shit. I Felt like I was dying" he sighed
"I wish I could make the pain go away" I said rubbing my hand over his chest.
"Well I heard that with the help of a kiss I could feel ten times better" he whispered.
"Is that so?" I asked smiling looking at him
"Mhmmmm" he replied.

I leaned up and gently pressed my lips against his. After a few seconds I pulled away.

"Are you better now?" I asked laughing.
"No I'm going to need a lot more kisses from you" he said and then attacked my lips. After a long make out session I turned on the tv. The only good thing that was showing was a Disney movie, High school musical, my absolute favourite movie of all time.

We have now been watching it for about an hour, commenting on different things that have happened.

"Ok even though Sharpay is a bitch you can't tell me she doesn't have a good fashion sense" I laughed. I waited for his response but it never came.

"Aaron?" I called but he still didn't answer me.
I peered up at him and slightly smiled when I saw he was sleeping. His mouth was hanging slightly open making him look insanely cute.  

I turned around and switched off the tv. I then gently laid my head back onto his chest making sure to not touch his ribs and dozed off.

The next morning
"Babe. Babe wake up" I heard Aaron whisper. I groaned in annoyance snuggling myself further into him.
"Babe come on. I'm bored" he sighed. He then started poking my side in attempts to wake me up.

"Ughhhh why do you have to be a morning person?" I groaned. He laughed and leaned in for a kiss but I quickly dodged it.

"No I have morning breath" I giggled
"So do I, so quit playing and give me a kiss" he smirked. Our kiss barely lasted ten seconds because the next thing we knew the door opened.

"Sierra?" I immediately pulled myself away from Aaron and reverted my attention to the door. My eyes widened when I saw who it was.

"Mom?!"
