Time continued on. It wasn't the end of the world. It was just the end of hers.
Yet, he barged in and forced her to fix it like it was his job to.

Edward had never wished to read minds; he never thought of it as a gift really, more of a curse since he had no control over his 'talent'. But watching from the corner of his Abby release silent tears while sitting in the passenger seat truly made him wish that his gift would work on her. She hadn't uttered a single thing other than one simple plea of driving her to the hospital. He was clueless, but more importantly, he was worried and he had no clue how to comfort her.
He didn't finish parking in the slot before she rushed out of her seat and closed the door shut, practically running to the front entrance of the small hospital. Edward went to follow her, taking long strides to keep up with her telling her silently that he'd never leave her - not now, not ever. She barely looked at him, her face still blanched and tears streaked on her perfect cheeks but he still wasn't going anywhere.
"Hey Majorie," Abby barely whispered when she reached the front desk. The older blonde woman passed Abby a pitiful look to the girl and Abby wondered softly, "Where's JD?" Edward quickly scanned the nurse's mind and he could feel himself ease tenfold when he saw his father taking care of the injured man. Abby would have to see for herself to believe it that everything would be fine.
"Right around the corner, 1F sweetheart, go ahead," Majorie smiled at her, mentally telling her that Jason was okay and it was nothing to worry about but Abby didn't notice the look because she took off immediately. Edward passed the nurse an appreciative nod before following her to the room.
While walking to their destination, Edward knew he had to say something to soothe her nerves, "He's fine, Abby. I'm sure of it."
He heard her scoff, "Life is rarely ever so kind, Edward."
The undead man couldn't help but agree with her though he wouldn't voice it. He didn't have to be a telepath to know how much heartache the beautiful brunette carried with her everywhere she went.
The blood didn't bother Edward much anymore though he was in a hospital and it was everywhere. He's been a vampire for far too long to let the faint smell of human blood bother him but he did catch the fresher scent of the ruby red liquid coming from 1F. He also caught the scent of his father's familiar aroma.
Edward watched as an anxious Abby burst open the door and saw her brother sitting on the hospital bed in his deputy uniform with a sling on his arm and gauze placed over the corner of his forehead. His father, Carlisle, stood next to the man sitting on the bed checking over his notes when the duo turned to see Abby and Edward at the door.
"Oh, my god," Abby whimpered. JD's face morphed into a slight panic and surprise when he saw his younger sister's face that was close to breaking into incorrigible sobs. She speed walked across the short space, ignoring everyone else in the room, and engulfed her older brother in her arms.
"Hey," JD mumbled into her hair, wrapping his one good arm around her, "I'm fine," he tried pulling away but she held onto him tightly, "Abby look at me, I'm fine."
