Once In A Lifetime | Jemi

Fifty One

The car stopped just moments before hitting the car in front of them. Their eyes were tight shut waiting for the car behind to slam into them but it didn't. Joe was brave enough to open his eyes and look behind him seeing the van has swerved out of the way crashing into a car which was over taking him. He could not believe the scene around him.

"Demi are you okay?" Joe questioned his breathing heavier than normal, he grabbed hold of her hand giving her enough courage to open her eyes.

"Oh my god." She mumbled.

"Are you okay?" He repeated Demi looking over at him nodding her head.

"W-We're both fine," Demi assured him feeling her kiss her gently. "G-Go help Joe; you know what you're doing." She demanded Joe nodding his head.

"I will, call my mom okay and tell her what's happened and that she may need to pick the kids up from school. Just let her know we're all okay," He breathed handing her his phone before he climbed out the car standing there for a moment before he knew what to do next. He made his way over to the car in front looking in the front mirror. "Sir are you okay?"

"Y-Yeah I'm fine, but my son is hurt." He stammered Joe looking into the passenger seat seeing a teenage boy hissing in pain slightly. Joe could see already his arm was dislocated, he made his way to the over side of the car opening the door.

"I'm going to keep you in the car but put your arm back into place, I'm training to be a doctor but I don't suck I promise," Joe tried to joke but he could see the young boy in front of him was in a lot of pain. "What's his name?"

"Toby but everyone calls him TJ. Just help him please." The man begged Joe nodding his head.

"Okay TJ this is going to hurt okay but you'll feel much better afterwards," Joe begun slipping his coat off. "Here bite down on my jacket arm if you have to." TJ willingly let him put it in his mouth before he grabbed his arm.

"Squeeze my hand if you have to." The man stated grabbing hold of his son's hand.

"On the count of three okay," Joe begun taking in a deep breath before speaking again. "One, Two, three..." Joe twisted his arm forward TJ screaming out in pain but muffled because he was biting on Joe's jacket.

Joe opened the car door again to his car placing his jacket in the back seeing that Demi was on the phone still but hung up before he could leave.

"She said not to worry about the kids, just get home safely," Demi breathed Joe nodding his head. "Help anyone?"

"Yeah a sixteen-year-old boy called TJ but the ambulances are here so I'm going to go offer my help to them and see if we can get this cleared quicker, do you want to follow?" Demi sighed nodding her head letting him help her out.

"Are you sure I'll be any help?" Demi inquired squeezing his hand.

"Any help will be needed even if you're just keeping someone company, just don't strain yourself with our baby." Joe demanded smiling as she leaned up.

"I won't Doctor Jonas." Demi winked making him chuckle.

"Don't say that," Joe demanded making Demi laugh. "Don't say your pregnancy hormones are already starting to kick in."

"We'll see." Demi grinned as they approached the ambulance.

"Do you want any help?" Joe questioned.

"Any help will be good, there's some cars further down that haven't been seen to yet, could you go assess them?" The paramedic questioned Joe nodding his head.

"Come on then." Joe led her back down the highway.
