all i saw was all black, but i could hear the sound of a hospital machine. my eyes wouldn't open, but i could hear a conversation around me.

"is daddy gonna die?" isabelle.
"no no he's fine, look i got you a turtle stuffie!"
i bet you know who got her the turtle stuffie
"tony, is it really time to be forcing isabelle to like turtles?" i knew that voice anywhere. my brother, mike.
"jaime is he gonna be okay?" kara, the absolute love of my life said.
"he's gonna be fine, come here" jaime said
hey! no making moves on my girl! even if i'm half dead!

all of a sudden i heard kara crying, and then isabelle. eventually i could hear a chorus of sniffles and that's when it happened.

my eyes shot open and i sat up in the shitty hospital bed, breathless.
not even saying anything, jaime tackled me into a hug, giving up on his emotionless state and bawling his eyes out onto my shoulder.

isabelle and kara hugged me next. i could feel their bodies shaking, and it broke my heart.

"what the hell are we gonna do?" mike asked. i was still in my hospital bed with isabelle asleep next to me, and kara on the other side of me with her head on my shoulder.

jaime sat on the floor with a pen and paper.
"easy. we're fucking canadians now" jaime laughed.
i face palmed as jaime started drawing
"okay so we're going to live here for about a year and then just come back, they won't know anything happened, police tend to forget quite fast"

we worked out where isabelle would go to school and everything and that was that. we had done it.

we all looked at eachother and smiled.
we got away with murder.

"lets cheers to this motherfuckers!"
