The Complications Of Falling

Shattered Hopes

Mer's Pov

I opened my eyes. A painful light shines in my eyes. I turn my head and look around the unfamiliar room.i could hear machines beeping. I started to freak out. I start to wrestle with whoever is touching me. I kicked and yelled.

"Where's my kids"? I shouted in panic.

"They we're taken and put in the rooms. They are okay. Baliey has two broken legs. He has been asking for you. Zola is recovering" Richard explained in a soothing tone. The feeling changed when I heard my little Zo was okay.

"Zola is okay" I repeated with a small smile.

"Yes she is and Alex told me that she is asking for you" He tells me.

"Page Alex here, please Richard" I asked with my puppy dog eyes.

He just nods and asks someone to page Alex. He walks out of the room. Instead of coming back in I saw him walk away. Alex rushed in. He had emotional drawn look on his face. He was exhausted. He ran into the room, I greeted him by smiling hugely at him. He raced over to my bed. After racing to my bed, he just breaks down. I watch as tears stream down his face with a sorrow filled look. I still couldn't believe the day I have had.

"Mer" He gasped as tears poured out of his raw eyes.

"Alex, I'm okay. The kids are fine. Maggie is going well" I explained to Alex in a calm tone.

"This morning I had a feeling like you always say you have" He confessed as tears continued to stream down his face.

"Oh Alex. It's okay you don't have to act so tough around me. You know that"? I asked.

"Yes I know, it's just I couldn't stop worrying about if you were okay" He explained as more tears fall.

"Alex, come here" I called.

He walks over to my bed. I lean in. He wraps his strong arms around me tightly.

"Alex your crushing me" I warned.

"Oh sorry" He apologizes.

It's okay Alex" I giggle.

He rolled his eyes. "Oh Alex don't be so serious all the time" I joked.

"Don't oh Alex me" He snapped playfully.

"Why do you have to be so evil" I retorted with a snooty tone.

"Oh you want evil" He ruthlessly smugly grinned.

"Okay, dirty Uncle Sal" I shamelessly mock.

"Oh your playing that game, Mer. Or how about Dirty mistress" He snarled peacefully.

"You didn't just go there, Manwhore" I gulped in shock.

" Fine game on, Evil Spawn" I dramatically spat as I smirked evilly.

"Game over, Adulteress whore" He sharply remarked.

"Fine you win, Alex" I started laughing uncontrollably.

"Yes" He cheered.

I laugh as He cheered.

"Why is my person so offensive" I mocked.

"I'm not being offensive" He sharply snapped.

"Chill Alex, I was joking" I snapped back.

"Mer what happened. The car was fine last week and the day of the fire. That day you dove me"? He asked with seriousness in my voice.

I was caught off guard. Just thinking about it made my palms sweat. I could feel my heart race. I sucked in air and exhaled.
"I don't know. It all happened so fast. One minute we were fine. And the next we were flipped upside down" I state helplessly as tears trickle down my pink cheeks.
