Safe Haven

Chapter 9

     "Alright, now follow my lead." Lecia ordered, shifting Lukas' body so she could wrap one of his arms around her shoulders. Matthias nodded and did the same, shouldering most of Lukas' weight on his own shoulders. With a mutual nod shared between the two Køhler siblings, they unlocked the restroom door and carried the unconscious Norwegian out of the party and towards the parking lot.

     Surprisingly no one really paid much attention to the three, shouldering them off as two designated drivers for one totally smashed dude. Which to be honest, was a complete relief. This made the plan go by ten times easier and faster.

     Lecia freed one of her hands to struggle for the car keys, reaching into her purse and rummaging around. When there was no luck, she gave Matthias a pleading look and he sighed, hoisting Lukas over his shoulder with a small grunt. Despite everything, he somehow finds a way to be a complete lazy ass, what a skill.

     "Thank you." Lecia said more sarcastically than normal, giving the older Dane a look before pulling the keys out of her purse and unlocking the car.

     "You're welcome." Matthias retaliated, opening one of the doors to the back seat and gently setting the Norwegian male inside, getting in afterwards. Lecia just stared, shaking her head a bit.

     "You really are an ass sometimes." She muttered under her breath, opening up the door to the driver's seat and getting in. With swift work of her wrist, she popped the keys into the ignition and started up the engine, letting it idle for just a second before she shifted it out of park and into drive, pulling it out of the parking space and driving off to the intended destination. This was kind of an emergency, there was no time to let the car warm up. Just pray that Lukas doesn't find out.

     The ride to the hospital wasn't long, thank Jesus and his father, but being stuck in a car with a Moody Matthias made it seem that way. For nearly the whole goddamn ride, he'd comment something- whether it be a complaint or a simple statement, he just didn't shut up and to be honest... it drove Lecia up a wall. So far up the wall, you could say she was imitating the Winchester Brothers' mom. (Too soon?)

     She loved him to death, but damn.

     Once a parking spot was found, Lecia quickly swooped in and Matthias quickly swooped out, dashing in the direction of the emergency entrance with an unconscious Lukas cradled tightly in his arms. Finally, professionals, he thought as he nudged the double doors open with his back and shoulders. In no time, the Dane was bombarded with nurses and paramedics. They plucked the sedated male from his arms and laid him along a gurney, wheeling him off to what Matthias hoped was an effective doctor. Then soon enough, Lecia joined him, taking just a little while longer to rest a comforting and reassuring hand along the older Danish man's shoulder.
