"Hello?" Ryland said as he picked up his phone.

"Hello, is this Mr. Ryland Storms?" The voice asked.

"Uh yeah, why?" He answered, unsure of what was happening.

"Hello Mr. Storms, I'm Carrie from the 'orange county global medical centre' and it seems that you are Ms. Hannah Andrews emergency contact? Right?" She said.

"Yes, I am? Why?" He said.

"Mr. Storms we're sorry to inform you but Ms. Andrews has been in an accident, and we currently have her here undergoing surgery. You can come down and see her once she's out of surgery." Carrie said. Ryland felt his heart drop into the pit of his stomach.

"Umm, okay. Thank you" He said after a few seconds.

"Have a nice day Mr. Storms. Bye bye" She said before hanging up.

"Fucking hell" Ryland muttered as he dialed Josh's number.

"Yo" Josh answered.

"Dudehannah'sbeeninanaccident" Ryland quickly said.

"What?" Josh asked.

"Hannah'sbeeninanaccident" Ryland repeated.

"Bro, I'm gonna need you to slow down" Josh chuckled.

"Hannah was in a accident" He slowly said.

"She was in a- holy fuck" Josh said.

"Can you come with me down there?" Ryland asked.

"Yeah, of course"

"Shit, Cam's here. I can't leave her" Ryland said, realizing  he still had his daughter with him. He had been watching Cameron for the afternoon while Hannah ran errands.

"Leave her here with Ness" Josh suggested.

"Right, yeah. Okay, well I'll be there soon. Bye" Ryland said as he hung up. Ryland walked up the stairs to Cami's room.

"Cami" Ryland said as he knocked on her door.

"You can come in!" She said and he did.

"Hey kid" Ryland said as he sat next to her on the floor.

"Hi!" She smiled.

"Can you grab some clothes, we're going to Josh's house and you're gonna play with Nessa for a bit" Ryland said.

"Why I need clothes then?" She asked.

"Incase you get tired, or you can change right now" He said and Cameron nodded.



Ryland and Josh were seated in the waiting room of the hospital. Ryland paced back and forth, anxiously awaiting the news on his girlfriend.

"Josh what if she's not okay? What if she dies on the table thing?" Ryland worried.

"Ryland, sit down. Stop worrying" Josh said as he too was letting his imagination get the best of him.

"Tell uh tell me some stories from the three years I missed" Ryland asked Josh as he sat down beside him, fidgeting with his hands.

"Umm well about who? Hannah or Cam?" Josh asked.

"Both I guess"

"Okay well there's Cami's first word, her first steps, when Hannah broke her arm that's all I can think of right now"
