A Bump In The Road (Brooklyn and Bailey)

#21

Bailey POV

Do you know what it feels like to not be able to move your lower body? You can see your legs but they dont move when you try to make them move, and no matter how many tests the doctors do nothing improves. Or when you've already got that putting you down and you find out that the rest of your family is injured too? That's the feeling that makes your stomach nauseous, that shakes you with fear each time someone walks past your door. And no one has told me anything about anyone else yet.

Just as all that was running through my head, a grey haired, plump doctor came into the room and began to speak. He told me how the rest of my family was, and that Kamri could come in soon. I know her and Brooklyn were a lot closer than her and me, but we still considered each other sisters.

"Where's Brooklyn?" I stuttered.

"Hasn't anyone told you?" He said with an unsure expression, "No one has found her from the crash scene."

I looked at him, I don't even know what expression was on my face, and told him to go. Well, more demanded, but considering the circumstances I think it was ok. He left without another word, and Kamri came in, tear stains on her cheeks. We took one look at each other before bursting into tears, our favourite person was nowhere to be found. Once we could control ourselves, she began to tell me about everyone else. The only thing I cared about was mom's perfect condition.

Another overwhelming feeling overcame me. She knew that this was going to happen. She planned this crash out and wanted us all dead, but the universe worked in our favour and none of us are dead yet. I suppose she has a physical advantage against all of us for the next few days, so she can do whatever it is that she planned for after that, good or not.

Rylan POV

I had a brainwave this morning. I called for one of the doctors when he was outside my half open door.

"Yes, Miss McKnight?"

"Would you consider moving me and all of my siblings into a room together as we progressively get better? It helps when we're together?" I said in a promising tone.

"I might just consider that, and move you in when you are well enough." He responded with a grin.

I was overjoyed. I needed all of my siblings together, not just Kamri visiting every one of us at different times in different parts of this huge hospital. The doctor came back 20 minutes later with some strong looking people, and they began moving my bed towards a larger room. No words were spoken, as our facial emotions said it all. I was the only one in there, but a few minutes later Paisley was in a bed next to me. We smiled at each other and started dancing as best we could in beds.

Soon after, Dax was brought in with a bandage on his forehead and a smile on his face. Kamri wandered in, being told it was Dax's room, and screamed before hugging each one of us individually and doing a happy dance.

"Where are the twins?" I asked.

"Baileys's not well enough and Brooklyn still hasn't been found." Kamri replied.

We just sat in silence for a while, taking in each others presence.

Hey readers!

Just letting you know I decided against the sequel idea, and I'm going to continue writing this the way it is.
