OWEN'S POV
We were so close to the exit but yet so far. We were about 300 metres away but Claire had blacked out. "Owen, what are we going to do?" Gray whispered. "I'm not sure, let me think" I mumbled lifting Claire's head onto my lap. "Claire, c'mon babe. Wake up, we're nearly out" I pleaded. My leg was throbbing like hell and I had 3 kids purely under my supervision, not to mention my unconscious fiancé. I couldn't think straight at all. I'm not normally stressed out but I had a lot on my mind. I was worrying about whether Lowery had made it out alive or not, I was also worrying about when Claire would wake up and if she needed medical attention. I was also worried about the boys they hadn't said much and they had a few scratches. I was also stressing about Olivia, she must be pretty hungry. I know Claire had fed her through out the day but she was due for another feed soon.
"Are you boys okay?" I asked. "Yeah, we're fine just tired, that's all" Zach answered for the both of them. They gave me a weak smile. *buzz buzz* my phone had just received a message from Lowery.
Just got out of exit 7, hope y'all okay. They aren't sending anyone in for another half hour. Please come out, I'll meet you at the main entrance. LI was relieved Lowery was okay, it felt like some of the weight had been lifted off my shoulders. I was mid way through texting Lowery, when my phone died. Just great. Completely stranded in a dinosaur infested resort. I really despise Dr. Wu and Mr. Masrani. "Err...Owen, I think we need to go...like now" Gray squealed. I followed my eyes to wear Gray was looking. Two Indominus Rexes prowling around. "Okay, I have a plan" I said thinking on my toes. "How much of a plan?" Zach asked. "Err...about 12 percent" I shrugged. "That's not a plan!" Gray whispered shouted. "Well, do you have a better one?" I shot back sternly. Gray's bottom lip trembled at my remark. "Hey don't talk to him like that" Zach defended him. "Sorry, I'm just stressed" I replied slightly sharp.
"Right here's what we're gonna do" I said keeping my eyes on the dinosaurs. "Zach you're gonna carrying Olivia, I'm gonna carry Claire and Gray you carry this" I whispered handing Gray a rock from the plant pot next to us. "Why" Gray shot me a confused look. "Cuz we're going to use it to smash open the door, so on my count we run" I said kind of rushed. I handed Olivia to Zach and swept Claire into my arms. "On 3. 1...2..." Before I got to 3 Zach and Gray were sprinting down the hall way. I ran after them as the I-Rexes were hot on our heels.
"Gray, throw the rock" I yelled. I started to panic, I hadn't thought plan properly. I could hear the dinos roaring behind us. I glass shattered and Gray leapt through not caring about the left over shards. Zach followed closely, he held Olivia tight against his chest to protect her from the glass. I cried for help as I couldn't fit through the door holding Claire. Blood started seeping through my bandage and I wasn't sure how much longer I could hold Claire. I was trembling as I focused on the 'living weapons' charging straight for us.
I clutched on to Claire tighter. Was this the end. I squeezed my eyes shut and drew in a deep breath. All of a sudden there was a crashing of glass from over my right shoulder. I hunched over in attempt to protect Claire. I lifted my head up to see ACU tranquillising the dinosaurs. I realised that I had been holding my breath, as I let out a big sigh. Medics came rushing in to help me carry out Claire. As I left the dreaded aquarium, I was hit with blinding fog lights. "Owen" I heard people shout my name. I wasn't sure whether to go with Claire to the medics or follow the voices. My eyes adjusted to light to find Lowery, the boys, Scott and Karen holding Olivia in front of me.
"I have to go with Claire in the ambulance...in case she wake up. I will meet you there" my voice was cracking slightly. "Okay, that's fine" Karen said sympathetically. I was so great full for her understanding and I limped into the back of the ambulance. I swear down that no matter where Claire and I are; we will find danger or danger will find us. I sat at the side as the medic rushed around Claire. Once they had stabilised her and seen to her huge gash down her side that I was completely unaware of, I was asked if I was okay. Even in my attempts to reassure them; the medics weren't convinced and ended up stitching my leg.
I couldn't feel any pain, I was too busy concentrating on how much blood Claire had lost. How did I not notice that massive slit down her side. I know Claire didn't say anything to me but it is my job to make sure that she was okay. And I had failed, yet again. I had not the slightest idea why she wanted to marry me next month. The ambulance turned into the hospital before wheeling Claire into a private room. The Doctor told me that she was going to be okay but it would be a slow recovery considering the amount of blood she had lost.
I hated sitting there, listening to sound to beeping machines and seeing Claire attached to a drip. It just made me feel ill. I sat there for 5 more minutes before everyone else arrived. "Hey, how's she doing" Karen whispered poking her head through the door. "She's gonna be okay" I gave her a small smile. Karen stepped in and the rest followed closely. "I'm so sorry the boys were put through another experience" I spoke apologetically. "Don't be silly Owen, it wasn't you fault. The most important thing is that everyone is okay" Karen smiled kindly. I was hit with a wave of guilt again. It was my fault, if I had just kept my temper things would of ended differently.
"Hey guys, sorry I'm late" Lowery said walking in. "It's fine" I mumbled, still engulfed with my guilt. Claire began to stir and butterflies filled my stomach with excitement. Claire was my sun. I was nothing without her. "Owen" she croaked trying to sit up. I rushed to her bed side, "Hey, take it easy. You've lost a lot of blood" I said stroking her hair. "Olivia!" Claire blurted out. "Look she's fine, Karen's got her and everyone's here to see you" I spoke trying to comfort her. Claire relaxed and murmured hello to her visitors. "You should all go and get some rest, you too Owen. We all need some sleep and I will probably be discharged in the morning" Claire spoke quietly. We all left at her request and I begrudgingly headed home with Olivia.
A/N: Hey guys, this chapter is slightly longer and I will try to get another update before next week but it depends on how much homework I get
Peace😎
