Oliver and Laurel were head over heels in love with one another and had been since the moment they'd first met. They talked about a life together after high school, college, an apartment together and eventually marriage. Everyone thought they'd be together forever, including their families and they were sure they'd spend the rest of their lives together too. But then one night something happened to change all that.
They were returning from a date, Oliver taking her home, when a drunk driver ran a red light, plowing into Oliver's car. Oliver had gotten a concussion and a broken arm, Laurel's injuries were far more serious and she was in a coma. Oliver blamed himself even though it wasn't his fault and no one blamed him. He stayed by Laurel's side everyday, telling her how much he loved her and begging her to wake up, to come back to him but she never did. More and more time passed and her parents encouraged him to go to college, to have a life and try to move on.
Oliver did but continued visiting Laurel when her parents weren't there, continued pleading with her to wake up. He began spending time with Laurel's sister Sara, the last link to Laurel he had. At first it was just dinner's sharing memories of Laurel but eventually it became more. They dated and eventually fell for one another, but still Oliver held on to Laurel, though no one knew, but Sara suspected.
She even tried to get him to move to another city but he refused, saying he didn't want to leave his family, but even Sara knew it was more then that.
One night Oliver went to see Laurel like he usually did and pulled up a chair to her bedside as usual, taking her hand into his, "Laurel, I love you more then anything. And if you wake up you know I'll choose you but if you don't wake up soon I'm going to have to let you go. So please come back to me. Don't make me live without you any longer." He pleaded, his voice breaking.
