left."
She shakes her head sadly and rubs her hands nervously. "I don't understand how someone can have so much jealousy that they could cause all this," she whispers.
"Neither do I," Scott says and squeezes her hands. "But I swear to you, I will do everything in my power to keep Krista safe from now on."
She looks him in the eyes and smiles weakly. "I believe you."
A knock on the door interrupts us and we all jump up when we see a doctor standing there. "So sorry to interrupt, but you can go in and visit now."
Chapter 14
When I walk into Katy's room, I hold my breath. She's still unconscious and has IVs going into her. I glance down at the leg that she just had worked on and slowly walk to her side, taking her hand in mine.
"I'm so sorry, baby," I whisper. "I wish I could trade places with you right now. I wish Alexia was locked away in jail somewhere and that I could somehow rewind time to fix this." I sigh and lean forward to kiss her forehead. "I'm so sorry."
I stand there just holding her hand and watching the machines beside her while they beep every few minutes. Suddenly I hear the door start to open, and I turn around to see Mr. and Mrs. Parker rushing in with my parents right behind them.
"Liam, we got here as soon as we could," my mom says before she pulls me into a hug. "Are you alright?"
"Yeah, I'm ok. I'm just worried about Katy."
Mr. Parker looks at his daughter and then down at the floor. "What the hell happened?"
"My co-star....she was really jealous of Katy. We...had a thing awhile back. She thought we were meant to be together, and apparently made plans to get rid of Katy."
He spins around quickly and glares at me. "So this is because of some girl you got with while you've been separated?"
Mrs. Parker steps forward and grabs his arm. "That is enough, Phillip. Liam didn't cause this." She steps in front of him and takes a deep breath. "How did you and Katelyn find each other again? I just don't get how you're with her now."
I walk over and sit in the little vinyl chair in the corner. "We're here filming. Excite wanted Scott and I to go to the local college for a little promotion. Turns out it was the college that Katy and Krista go to. I saw her walking with Lucas while the Dean was giving us a grand tour." I shake my head. "We had a very public argument, but I couldn't get her out of my head after that. I still love her, and she still loves me Mr. and Mrs. Parker. We're back together now." I look them in the eye and brace myself to be yelled at. I know Mr. Parker has it out for me. He has ever since everything went downhill between me and Katy.
Mrs. Parker has an approving look on her face and Mr. Parker holds a glare on his.
Phillip steps around his wife and goes to Katy's side and takes her hand. "You need to hurry back, baby girl. You've got some explaining to do about this one." He looks over toward me and sighs. "If you're really letting him back in your life and into your heart though, I won't do anything to jeopardize that." He leans down and kisses her scratched forehead.
I gulp and close my eyes for a minute as I lower my head. Maybe there's hope. I can't blame him for being wary of me; I would be too if the roles were switched. I look up and look him in eye, nodding to let him know I get it. I have to prove myself.
I'm going to show him and myself that I'm serious about this. I can do this. I love her, I always have, and I'm going to be by her side through
