Wicked Games (Completed)

Chapter 8: Wilted Roses (P)erkins

When they arrived at the hospital the doors to the ambulance were opened by the paramedics and Bunny was  taken out of the truck.

'This is all my fault, I can't believe this happened.'

Anna, who was still sitting inside the truck just sat there watching them wheel her away.

About 20 minutes had passed by and then Anna heard yelling coming from the entrance of the hospital.

Anna was in the waiting room and the yells got louder.

"Ma'am, are you the patients mother?" Anna heard a doctor ask.

"Yes! Now let me see my daughter!" Bunny's mom yelled.

Anna walked around the corner to where she thought Bunny's mom was standing.

She was exactly where she thought she was, Bunny's mom stood there in distressed jeans and a grey hoodie. Her hair was tangled and frizzy and she didn't have makeup on. She spotted Anna and her lip quivered.

Bunny's moms eyes got big and she started walking towards Anna.

"How could you do this? Why did you take her to that party?!" She yelled, crying.

Anna started crying and looked Bunny's mother in her eyes.

"I'm so sorry." Anna said, feeling really guilty.

A woman doctor walked up and introduced herself to Anna and Bunny's mom.

"Hello, I'm Dr. Perkins. Are you two relatives of the patient."

"Yes. I'm her mother Rose. Was she raped?" She asked the doctor.

"No. She wasn't. She was beaten severely." The doctor spoke in a soft calming voice. 

Rose started crying again, and she closed her eyes and kept them closed for a minute and then looked at the doctor again.

"How severely?" Rose asked slowly.

"She has a few broken ribs, a broken leg, and a broken nose.." Dr. Perkins paused and sighed. "She also broke her hand trying to fight back."

"Oh, my god." Rose leaned over and put her hands on her knees and sighed.

She tried to keep in the tears but she couldn't.

She stood up straight again and looked at Dr. Perkins.

  "Can I see her please?" Rose asked sniffling.

"Of course." Dr. Perkins said turning to walk the other way, and then stopped and looked back. "If you two can follow me, I will show you to her room."

Rose walked over to Anna and looked in her eyes.

Anna stood there in tears.

Anna looked up sadly, not knowing what to expect.

"Get the fuck out of here, and never come back." Rose said, making Anna's eyes get big.

Then Rose walked away with the doctor.

Anna left out the main hospital doors and got in her car and spotted Max standing next to Wyatt.

They were talking to detectives.

Then the detectives shook their hands and walked towards Anna.

"I'm Detective Holland and this is my partner Detective Snyder. Can we get your statement?" They asked Anna.

"Do I have to give it right now?" Anna asked trying to compose herself.

"Listen kid, we got a job to do and we can't just work around your schedule." The older Detective said.

"Snyder, can't you see she's upset?" Holland said pushing Snyder.

"We can, of course. Just give us a call...?" Holland said trailing off.

"Anna. My names Anna Marie Housten."

"Okay. Ms. Housten just give us a call when you're ready to give your statement." Holland said nicely.

"Okay, thank you." Anna said drying her tears.

"No problem." Holland said smiling sadly before walking away with Snyder.

Then Max and Wyatt walked over to where Anna was and Max saw she looked upset, and probably could tell she had been crying really hard and looked worried. "Are you okay?" Max asked looking into her eyes.

"No." Anna cried pulling him into a hug.

He held her for a while.

Wyatt just stood there wishing someone would hug him, he felt like people blamed him for what had happened.

"What do you want me to do?" Wyatt asked, breaking the silence.

Anna and Max both looked at Wyatt and then looked at each other. "You can go see her." Anna spoke, sadly.

Wyatt looked hopeful and then ran through the entrance doors.

"Let's get outta here." Max suggested to Anna.

Anna nodded in agreement as she sniffled and they got in his truck.
