Aidans pov

It had been about ten minutes since y/n went to to shower, I hadn't heard any water which concerned me greatly.

Suddenly the doors burst open a second time and in came a breathless bethany and felix

" wheres y/n?!" They both asked instantly and in a panic

" she said she was going to shower " I replied,  their eyes widened

" shit! Aidan!" Felix began pacing " beth go check on her, now!"

Beth ran down the hallway then up the stairs , I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion.

" what's going on?" Asked emmy

" I'll explain later,  just for now you gotta know what happened in the supermarket "

Beth's pov

I ran upstairs and into y/ns bedroom, I heard no shower running in her bathroom, but I knew she was in there.  The door was locked

" y/n come out " I ordered,  she didn't reply " you know I can pick locks, cmon. Open the door" no reply

I sighed and pulled out a hair clip from my air and undid it using the thinner side to pick at the lock .

The door opened slowly and I looked inside,  y/n stared at me like a deer in the headlights.

Blood was running down her arms from her wrists and a blade was held in her shaking hands

Suddenly she dropped to the ground with a thump

" Y/N!" I cried and got to the ground next to her trying to wake her

Felix finnished his story, I sat wide eyed. No way on earth i had let that happen to her , the love of my life

A sudden thump from upstairs broke me from my thoughts , I looked up same as everyone else

" Y/N!" Beth screamed

I immediately got up and sprinted up the stairs soon followed by felix and the others

I made it to the bedroom, the bathroom door was open wide . Beth was on the floor hugging onto y/n like her life depended on it as blood seeped from y/ns arms, no, I hadn't let this happen, I couldn't have . 

I ran into the bathroom and crouched beside y/ns unconscious body

" beth get some bandages " I said not averting my eyes from her "now, before she dies of bloodloss"

Beth left the hug and began foraging through the cupboards

I shifted ever so slightly so I was leaning above y/n, I cupped her cheek with my other arm kept me stable

" y/n wake up" tears began rolling down my cheeks " please , I need you" I rested my forehead on hers " y/n please" I shut my eyes tight in an attempt to wake myself from whatever nightmare this was

I noticed felix and beth bandaging her arms so she wouldn't loose any more blood

" we need to get her to the hospital " said Tom,  I turned and noticed all the cast where watching with teary eyes, ritu and Robert where the worst, they were full on crying and hugging onto whoever was nearest.

" forget that" elliot sniffed "someone needs to call an ambulance "

" I'm on it" David dashed down the stairs to the phone

Lix and beth moved away allowing me to sit on my knees and pull her limp body closer to me , it felt as if I were cuddling a rag doll. I'm going to murder the old man who made her do this to herself

" please wake up" I whispered breathlessly " how did I let this happen to you?"

Soon enough I slipped into ugly crys , I couldn't control myself any longer.  I should've come to the shop with her, shouldn't have let her come to the bathroom,  should've checked on her the second I thought something was wrong, but I was to late now.

I held her close to my chest and sobbed into her hair

Suddenly I felt justin rubbing circles in my back

" shes gonna be ok alright?" He comforted " just calm down , and take a few deep breathes "

I did so and felt calmer almost instantly " yeah, shes gonna be alright " I said , my voice breaking every now and then

" AMBULANCE IS ON THE WAY" we heard david scream from downstairs,  i let out a small sigh of relief

" it wont be long" said beth " like most things, the hospital isn't that far away"

"  thank god"

Paramedics were pushing y/n into the ambulance on a bed , we were told two of us could come with her , so that's what we were discussing

" aidan should definitely go" said tom " it's his girlfriend, hes gonna wanna be there if she wakes up mid trip"

" I agree" Robert nodded " but what about the second person?"

" can I go?" Asked ritu " me and her have been like this " she crossed her fingers " since we met on set"

" you can go , if no one wants to take you're spot. If they do, rock paper scissors it" said david "anyone wanna take her seat?"

No one made a sound

" good " felix sighed " now, go get the ambulance you two. Before it gives up on you both and leaves "

Me and ritu walked away and towards the ambulance then jumping in and sitting at the sides of y/ns bed

Paramedics closed the doors,  one sat in the back with us in case of emergency while the other two drove like hell down the road

" why did she do it?" Asked ritu

" oh shit, you dont know " I sighed " you sure you wanna hear what happened?"

" positive "

" so, what felix said happened was that they were shopping , as planned , but felix forgot something in the first aisle so she went to go get it, about five minutes later Beth and lix found it in a different aisle so he decided to go tell her it's fine. " I explained " when he found her , she was infront of what he was missing,  but an old  man had his hand over her mouth and his other was uhm , down her leggings and .... yeah , you know where..."

" shit" she sighed

" yeah shit" I held one of y/ns hands " I wish she didn't have to go through this kinda stuff, it clearly has a toll on her mental health"

Ruth hummed in agreement "well, after this she can report him to the police"

" this is y/n, I doubt she would do that " I said with a sorrowful look " every time something serious like that happens , she always brushes it off and says, ' I'm used to it, its fine' which she shouldn't be, but convincing her to go to the police about this is nearby impossible.  Plus , she worries about ruining our holiday with being to busy, so , shes not going to."

" oh..."

" I wish everyone could see that shes a person " I began gently rubbing my thumb along y/ns knuckles " this feels almost unreal, it shouldn't be happening.  Not to her, not to anyone really.  But she doesn't deserve being scared to go out in public, she doesn't have to feel the need to k-..kill herself..." I trailed off as tears threatened to fall once more

" dont worry kid" the paramedic patted me on the back " she'll wake up, we ran some tests at the house. She passed out from bloodloss but the bandages have prevented her from losing to much"

" thank god for felix and beth" Ritu sighed happily

" yeah "

The entire car went silent, the only apparent sounds were the sirens wailing and the wheels squeaking as they sped down the grey road
