Riley and Lucas #Wattys2016

We all hate hospitals.

Tommy Lee is now Charlie Gardner, ok. Good.

Farkle
The drive to the hospital in my car was the most grueling minutes of my life. Jonathan and AM were in their carseats as worried as I was. It was almost like they could read my mind. I parked in the E.R. section's parking lot and ran inside with the kids. "We need to get her to an operating room, stat. The bullet is deep in," a nurse said.
Maya was on a gurney being rolled away to an operation room. I grabbed Jonathan, held AM's hand, and ran with the nurses. A security guard stood tall, "You are not permitted to go past here." I pulled him close, "Listen to me, bub. My wife is in there, fighting for her life. You better let me go." He sighed, "I understand that sir, but you need to step back."
Lucas
Riley went to be with Farkle and Maya, since they were the original trio. I had to answer some questions for cops. After they interrogated me, I walked over to the body being lifted unto a gurney. I pulled back the garbage bag to see Missy's face, frozen in fear.
Her brown eyes were wide open and her once bubblegum pink lips were gray. I closed her eyes and zipped up the garbage bag. This was all my fault, if I had just told Riley the truth...
No! A voice said, she's hurting enough now that Maya's been shot. She's gonna be crushed if she finds out you had an affair with Missy. If love Riley, you'll shut up. I breathed in, "I won't tell Riley. It would crush her."
"You won't tell Riley what?" Riley smiled as she walked into the room. I looked at her, "Tell you that I am actually about to start sobbing." Riley's phone vibrating and she looked at a text with her eyes wide open, "Maya's out of surgery. She's gone into a coma."
I took out my phone and called my mom, "Hey mom. Maya's been shot and we have to go to the hospital. Can you watch the kids? Ok, thanks. Bye."
Maya
I opened my eyes with a splitting headache and a pain in one my thighs. Two little heads were on my chest, AM and Jonathan. I kissed their foreheads and found their dad. Farkle was sitting on the windowsill, sleeping with hitched breaths. I walked over to him and cuddled into his arms.
His eyes opened, "Hey." I smiled, "Hi." He wrapped me in a bear hug and rubbed circles on my back. My head was on his shoulder as he kissed my forehead. "I was so worried about you. I thought you were dead," he stuttered while crying. I kissed his forehead, "I'm not going anywhere."
Riley and Lucas came in with teary eyes. "Maya!" Riley shrieked before running to hug me. She then slapped my arm, "Ouch, Riles!" She smirked, "That's for getting shot. I was worried sick about you. Lucas was too." I smiled, "Aw. Huckleberry missed me." He smiled, "Well, who would miss a short stack of pancakes?"
"Watch your tongue Friar," a voice hissed. Josh walked into the room smiling coldly at everyone else but Maya. "We haven't heard from you in a while, Uncle Boing," Maya scoffed, "Wasn't Missy your psycho bride-to-be?" Farkle snorted to contain his laughter like everyone else. "Well Maya. You have grown to be a very gorgeous young lady," Josh smiled.
"And you have grown to be a flirt, liar, cheat, and evidently a psychopathic widow," Maya smirked, "But hey. Whose counting all your flaws?" Josh growled, "Speaking about my now widowed persona, I've offered a deal. Maya or Ashley Mae." My face went pale and Farkle shook with anger, "None." Josh smiled, "You think you're all tough, Dr. Turtleneck? Remember when Billy Ross bullied you to the extent of almost reaching that depression stage? You were miserable. And if I'm not mistaken, you used a glass shard to ease out your pain. That's why you still wore sweaters..."
In ten seconds, Farkle had Josh pinned to the wall with his hands around his neck. "I am over that stage. I fought it. I have the scars, and I am proud of them. I promise you one thing. Every bring up my past of anyone else's, I will personally hurt you," Farkle told him. His voice was so calm, it scared me, "Now walk away, before I hurt you." Josh smiled, "I dare you." Farkle tightened his grip until you heard Josh struggling to breath.
I closed my eyes and covered my ears as I heard Josh choking and Lucas dragging Farkle away. I didn't believe what I just saw, my husband being violent. Like Riley always says...

I hate hospitals.
