Sweet redemption
Chapter 45
Daryl/Emma's POV
"You need to come right now to the clinic it's Merlynn and Dylan, they had an accident."
"EMMA! Get your shit we gotta go." As Emma comes down the stairs.
"What's wrong?"
"Merlynn and Dylan are at the clinic. Come on."
"What happened Spencer? How did my babies end up at the clinic?" We run out of the house and head towards the clinic. We slam the door open, Denise is leaving room one and heads towards room two.
"Oh, guys you're here."
"What happened to my babies?"
"Emma calm down."
"Don't tell me to calm down. Why are my babies here?"
"Emma they were playing and ran into each other fell and hit their heads on the tiles. We rushed them here 'cause they were bleeding."
"Oh god, Daryl."
"Em, it'll be okay."
"Will it?"
"Come on come and see them." We follow Denise to room one and Merlynn is asleep on the bed, her head is bandaged up.
"Oh, god babe. My poor baby." As I walk over and kiss Merlynn.
"Denise? What's wrong with her."
"She's okay I mean she and Dylan have hit their heads but they are okay they have stitches and are now sleeping."
"Jacob why did you let them muck around they are so rough with each other that Merlynn thinks she's a boy."
"We were watching them and the next thing they ran into each other and fell and hit their heads, as soon as we saw the blood we took them to the hospital. Oh, fuck the rest are still at home. Spencer honey go home and look after the kids." Spencer runs out.
"Oh god, Daryl." He wraps his arm around me.
"Honey let's go see Dylan. Merlynn is fine she's just sleeping." We walked into room two and Dylan looked so small in the big bed that I started crying. "Hey, babe why are you crying?"
"I left my kids in care so I could screw you. If I'd been doing my job and looking after them instead of you, they'd be okay, because we know not to let them rough house."
"I'm so sorry Emma, I didn't expect them to hurt themselves."
"Jacob honey it's not your fault I'm sorry. I don't blame you."
"Thanks, sis. You guys are okay?"
"Yeah, we will." Jacob kisses me and walks out. "Oh baby look at them they look so bad."
"They are tough bastards you and I know that."
"Yeah, I guess."
"No, I guess Em. They'll be fine. We will give them lots of hugs and kisses and make them feel better they will be spoiled rotten."
"Yeah, we can spoil them rotten. I can't believe they did that too themselves."
"Well you know Em these two are always roughhousing with each other. Just like Merle and I used to."
"Did you two run around and hit each other?"
"Oh, that and then some. That's when we weren't beating the crap outta each other or I was trying to drag Merle out of a bar because he was in trouble."
