Liv watched Owen go down and an involuntary scream left her lips. “Owen!”
She slides from the chair to fall at her knees, rolling him towards her and cradling his head on her lap. “Owen, honey, wake up!”
She pats his cheek roughly and his eyelids flutter. The back of his head is bleeding and she can feel it seeping through her pants leg. She looks up at the person who hit him, ready to light into them when she notices the gun pointed at her face.
“Liv!” Owen's hart stops beating in his chest when he hears the deafening sound of the gun going off and he sees Liv fall backwards to the ground. He hears her cry out in pain and his stomach knots up. He can not breath and he feels his throat tightening up when she does not move. “No. No, no, no! Liv, get up, baby! Get up!” Owen cries, looking at her.
Owen spends three days and nights beside her bed, not leaving and barely eating. He has not showered or shaved. He changed clothes in her attached bathroom and gave himself a wash rag bath so that he would not stink, but that is the most that he would do. He would not leave her side for anything. Andy and Lacey brought him food and drinks. Jack and Andy ran the motel for him while Lacey spent her days at his side, keeping him company. Jesse and the sheriff got a story from Taylor, but it was all kinds of wrong. She claimed that Owen kidnapped her, with the hel
Owen could only stare at Liv, as she lay there in the bed with her beautiful teal eyes looking up at him, watching his every move. He stares back at her, almost not brave enough to believe that this is actually real, in case it his just his mind playing tricks on him. “Owen?” She is blinking at him, with tears on her lashes and he can not stand it. He rushes over to her and leans over her head, brushing the small beads from her eyes. “You are okay, baby!”
Liv looks around at all of the people shoved into her tiny hospital room. She is fighting back a panic attack and she knows that Owen is doing the same. He hates being around people and he hates talking about his past. She understands this and she thinks that he is so brave for being willing to even do this in the first place. She is so beyond proud of him. She is trying not to freak out by how hemmed in she feels. Like Owen, she does not do well in crowds. But if she is on her feet and able to move around, she can usually always
Liv looks at him, surprised by his words. “What did you say?” “Marty, the sheriff, is trying to draw out the killer. That is why he wanted it to look as if we were filming that interview live, so that come five o'clock, the killer would think that that we are all at the hospital. I think that Marty is hoping that he will go try to take another body to the motel. There are still three girls missing at the moment, that have not been found. He does not think that they will be found alive but he is hoping that if he catches the killer, maybe he can save some other girls.”
When Owen comes to once more he is being drug through the woods beside the motel, as officer Michaels makes his way around the motel. Owen can not really tell where he is going, from his position there on his back. Officer Michaels tugs at the rope that binds his hands without any regard for the discomfort that he is causing Owen. His shoulders burn from the way that they are being pulled and his arms ache. His head hits against a large rock sticking up from the ground and he winces. Owen struggles to keep quiet and to not make a
Liv looks at Jack, not comprehending the words that are coming out of his mouth as he tells her the news about Owen. “No.” “Liv.” “I said no, damn it!” She shouts at him, sitting up, trying to get off of the bed. “No. No, no, no! Fuck!” She smacks the remote on the side of the bed, knocking it to the floor. “Liv-” Jack sa
December 25, 2008One year later Liv looks over at her husband and grins widely. Owen grins back at her, loving the way that she watches him with the baby. Their baby is the light of Owen's world and Owen loves her more than he ever thought that it was possible to. They had their daughter almost six months ago, because she was impatient and came a few weeks early. But her parents d
