Chapter 5

~Justin's POV~

When Shelly had passed out from blood lose James had stormed through the door.

"You got the car?" I asked, picking Shelby up bridal style, struggling to keep the damp red towel against her head. James nodded rushing over to hold the towel. We rushed out the door and down the steps to James pick-up truck. I sat down and laid Shelby on my lap. I pressed the towel a little harder to stop the bleeding.

"How long until we get to the hospital?" I asked after about 10 minutes of being on the road.

"We're here." He said while pulling into the emergency entrance. "You go and get help while I park." He told me, unlocking the car. I nodded, picking Shelby up in my arms while sliding out of the truck. I nudged the door closed with my hip. I had lost the towel in the truck when I came out but it didn't matter so much now. I ran through the automatic doors,

"Help!! Someone help me!! She is loosing too much blood!!" I yelled as nurses rushed to me and brought a gurney to lay Shelby on. Doctors and nurses crowded her, blocking my way. I tried my best to stay by her side. A nurse came up to me and slowly gestured me to move away.

"Sir, your gonna have to go to the family waiting room while we take of her." She said gently. I pushed forward, not wanting to leave her side.

"I have to stay with her. I can't loose her again! I can't." I said, some tears brimming to my eyes but I quickly blinked them dry.

"I'm sorry sir, but you much let the doctors do their job so that won't happen." She said gently pushing my back. I reluctantly stopped pushing. I sighed and nodded my head as she walked me to the empty waiting room where I sat down on one if the uncomfortable chairs.

James walked in not too long after and saw me sitting in the chairs. He came over and sat beside me. We just sat in silence.

~~~ About 3 hours later ~~~

James and I were talking about hockey when the doctor came in. We both instantly stood up and rushed to him. He looked up from his clip board and saw us.

"Are you guys related to Miss. Miller?" He asked looking from James to me.

"We are her brothers." I quickly said before James could say anything. He looked at me with a 'the fuck?' look but I nudged him to go along with it. If we said we were just friends, they wouldn't let us see her.

"Uh yea. Her brothers." James said clearing his throat. The doctor have us an unsure look before closing his eyes, sighing and continued on. 

"Well looks like she got very lucky. She got a couple of stitches that will take a little while to heal. She may complain about having headaches but that's common. She lost a lot of blood so she is going to be weak for a couple days. Make sure she drinks a lot of liquids and eats." He said before turning around, I followed my gaze to see Shelly in a wheel chair, a blanket covering her legs and a white a bandage wrapped around her head. She looked tired and pale. I hate seeing her like this.

"Oh and be sure you change the gauze every morning and night. Here is the medicine to give her before she sleeps. Make sure she does sleep" He said looking at me strictly.

"Okay, I promise we will take good care of her." I said before taking the back of Shelly's wheel chair. We said bye to the doctor and thanked him before leaving. We got Shelby into the truck and went to her apartment in silence. Once we got there James helped bring Shelby into the apartment before having to leave for work.

"Do you want me to stay? Or go?" I asked once he shut the door behind him. Shelby was laying on the couch, her eyes closed. I knew she wasn't asleep. She wasn't softly snoring like she does when she sleeps, which is really cute. When she said nothing I walked over to the couch and squatted so I could look at her closer.
