Mrs. Tattoo (Book 2 of Mr. Tattoo)

Chapter 2

Jason's P.O.V.
"Hello 911, what's your emergency?" The operator says into the phone.
"Hi my fiancé is puking up blood. I need an ambulance." I say a little frantic. I pick up a shirt off the floor and place it on Sarah.
"What's your address and names please?" The lady says. I tell her as I try to clean up Sarah. She keeps pushing me away but I'm scared that something is really wrong.
"Okay. I will have an ambulance there in 5-8 minutes. Would you like to stay on the line?" She asks.
"No thank you. Bye." I say and hang up. I find some pajama pants and give them the Sarah.
"Jason I'm fine." She says.
"No your not. You threw up blood." I say getting dressed myself.
"Ugh." She sighs.
"Common let's head downstairs." I say. We walk down slow and steady taking our time. Sarah gets to the bottom and we head for the front door. Sarah slips on some Uggs and I slip on my comfy shoes too. We wait for the ambulance to arrive quietly. Sarah gags a couple times but doesn't throw up. The paramedics finally show up right when the 911 dispatch said they would.
"Hello. What's your name miss?" The paramedic asks her.
"Sarah Christifore." She says gagging again.
"What seems to be going on?" He asks her. I'm getting impatient and just want to go to the hospital.
"I've been throwing up blood." She says.
"Okay. Let's get you in the ambulance. And you are.." the paramedic trails of looking at me.
"Her fiancé. Jason Rivera." I say.
"Okay. You can ride with. Let's get going so we can get Sarah checked out." He helps her to the ambulance and I follow behind. We climb inside and get moving.
The paramedic asks simple questions while he checks her blood pressure and everything else. We get halfway and she pukes again. I'm getting more nervous and the time moves on.
We finally get to Silver Cross Hospital. They take her through the emergency room and get her to a room stat.
"Sir what is your relationship to her." A doctor asks when Sarah gets in her room.
"I'm her fiancé." I say keeping my eyes on her.
"Okay. We are going to run some tests. You have to wait out in the lobby. We will come get you when we have finished." The doctor tells me.
"Okay. Just please take care of her." I tell the doctor. I would tell Sarah I lover her but she's throwing up again and they shove me out of the room. I whisper I love you before I leave. I head to the lobby and decide to call her dad.
"Jason's?" Her dad says into the phone. He sounds like he's been sleeping. Well it is about 11pm.
"James, sorry I'm calling you at this hour. I just want to let you know I had to call an ambulance. Sarah started puking up blood. She's getting tests done now." I say and try to be calm. I can feel a lump in my throat.
"It's okay. What hospital?" He asks I can here his moving around.
"Silver Cross." I say.
"Okay I'm on my way." He says and hangs up. I call Brandon too.
"Hey man." He yawns.
"Brandon. Sarah got an ambulance ride the hospital. She started puking up blood." I say. Tears roll down my cheeks. When your talking to your best friend tears are okay but your fiancé dad is different, you gotta be a man.
"Is she okay?" He asks.
"I don't know she's getting tests and other things done right now. I'm scared. I sniffle. I'm in the back corner of the lobby so not many people look at me.
"We'll stop by." Brandon says.
"You don't have to. Let Kelsey sleep." I say.
"Your on speakerphone. She's already dressed with her coat and everything." He says.
"Okay. I'm at Silver Cross." I say.
"Alright we'll be over." He says.
"Bye see ya soon." I say and hang up the phone. Every minute that ticks by I get more impatient and nervous. After 15 minutes James walks in.
I stand up to greet him. We shake hands and he can see that I was crying.
"It'll be okay." He says giving me a pat on the back.
"I'm just scared it'll be something horrible." I say.
"Don't worry. She will be okay." He says giving me reassurance. We sit in silence mostly until Brandon and Kelsey show up.
"Have you heard anything yet?" Kelsey says just as impatient and I would be.
"No. She's been back there for only thirty minutes." I say. We all sit and have small talk but that's about it. The emergency and hospital in general is very boring. About an hour and a half later the doctor from before walks over to me.
"Sarah's family?" He asks making sure he has the right people. We all nod but I stand up.
"Yes. How is she?" I ask desperate for answers.
"Sarah got through her tests just fine. We noticed some damage in her kidney and liver. Is she a drinker?" He asks.
"No. Not really maybe one drink her and there but she isn't and alcoholic or anything." I say.
"The only thing it could be is alcohol abuse. Did she drink tonight?" He asks.
"Yes but only one glass of wine. We haven't drink anything in a while. I'm always around her and I never see her drink or smell it. It has to be something else." I say. Sarah isn't a drinker like that something is wrong.
"The only other thing could be food poisoning." He says.
"When you guys had your drinks today, was it on an empty stomach?" He asks.
"We only had breakfast. We had our drinks around 7 o'clock." I say.
"That could be it then. Would you like to see her?" He asks me but we all shake our heads.
"Only the fiancé right now." The doctor says and I follow him.
"So what's the plan then?" I ask as we walk.
"She will stay overnight, maybe a second, so we can flush out her system and watch everything." He says.
"Okay. Will she be okay? Will she be damaged?" I ask.
"She will need time to heal so no alcohol for a few months. Lost of water though." He informs me.
  "Yes, sir." I tell him as we round the corner to Sarah's room. We get to the door and the doctor lets me have a moment with Sarah.
  "Hey baby." I say softly when I see her laying in the bed. Her head moves from the window to me.
  "Hi." She says quietly.
  "Doctor says that you'll be okay. How you feeling?" I ask her as I sit on the edge of the bed. She lays her hand on my thigh and I grab it.
  "I'm okay. Tired but okay. Did they say what was wrong?" She asks.
  "They talked a little but we can discuss it when the doctor comes in." I say.
  "I love you." She says.
  "I love you too." I say. There is a soft knock at the door and the doctor walks in.
  "Hello Sarah, how are you feeling?" He asks her.
  "I'm okay." She shrugs.
  "Okay. Well the tests show alcohol abuse but your fiancé says your not a heavy drinker. Is that correct?" He asks her and we look at her.
  "Yes that is correct." She says and relief washes over me. I knew she didn't drink like that but hearing it from her makes me happier.
  "Okay so the only other thing, from what we saw on the tests, is food poisoning. Your fiancé said you guys had a drink on an empty stomach which could very well be the reason." The doctor explains to Sarah.
  "So how am I effected?" Sarah asks.
  "Time will heal your body. For now though we want you to stay the night so we can flush out your system and monitor you and make sure nothing changes. If things change we will keep you longer." He tells her.
  "Okay thank you doc." She says with a sigh of relief.
  "So we are getting you a room set up outside the ER. A nurse should be here soon to take you to your room." He says.
  "Okay sounds good." She says.
  "I'll be in tomorrow to come check on you again." He says and walks out the door.
  "Did you call my dad?" Sarah asks.
  "Yeah. Brandon and Kelsey are here too." I say looking down at our hands together.
  "You didn't have to call Brandon and Kelsey. I told you I would be fine." She groans.
  "I was scared." I say tears brim my eyes.
  "Jason it's okay. Look at me." She says. I look up and try to blink my tears away but that makes them fall.
  "Hey. Don't cry." Sarah says wiping the tears away. I feel like I'm a little boy. I should be strong like a man in a situation like this.
  "I know. I was just scared. When people throw up blood it could mean your dying. I'm not ready to live without you." I say with more tears.
  "Oh baby." She says pulling me close. I wipe away the tears and take deep breaths to calm down.
   "Knock knock." A nurse says as she actually knocks on the door. She walks in with a smile.
  "Hi Sarah. I'm here to take you to your room." She says getting Sarah ready.
  "What the number?" I ask.
  "458." She says.
  "Okay thanks." I say repeating it in my head so I won't forget.
  "Visiting hours are over. You can stay the night but any other visitors in the lobby have to come back during the hours tomorrow." She says.
  "Okay thats fine." I say and send out a text to everyone and let them know. Sarah gets rolled down the hall and I follow.
