***Ej's POV***

"SOMEBODY HELP ME ! MY SISTER'S BEEN SHOT"

I yelled as i ran into the emergency room, cradling Elle's limp body in my arms. The nurses rushed over and placed her on a gourney. I tried to go after her but one of the nurses pushed me back

"Sir... i'm gonna need you to stay here... as soon as we have an update on her condition we'll let you know. In the meantime i'm going to need you to fill out some paperwork while you wait" she said in a soothing voice

I nodded my head and got the paperwork from the front desk. Since i had no clue what elle's physical health was like, i filled out all her paperwork exactly how i would do mine, she was my twin after all. I hurried up and turned the paperwork in then i sat down and put my head in my hands. I had been waiting out here for two hours and there was still no word of her condition.

I couldn't believe this shit.... i shot my own sister... my twin sister that has been missing for thirteen years.... Fuck my life. I couldn't even begin to wrap my head around this shit. I was lost. I needed to talk to Adonis.

I left the waiting room and walked down a long hallway so i could have some privacy then i took out my phone and dialed adonis. He picked up on the first ring.

"Talk to me"

I opened my mouth to talk but no words came out

"Yo... Ej... what's going on man ?" he asked concerned

"I fucked up..." my voice cracked

"Where are you?" he asked

"Jackson memorial hospital"

"I'm on my way"

I walked back to the waiting room and sat down. The girl i snatched out of the motel room was sitting with her back against the wall crying silently. I was starting to become anxious so i started pacing. About thirty minutes later Adonis walked in.

"Ej... what happened ?" he asked concerned. Before i could speak, a doctor came out

"Family of Elle Banks ?" he said looking at his clipboard

"Thats me. Is my sister okay ? Is she awake ? when can i see her ?"  i fired off questions in a rush

"Hello, My name is Doctor Carson, I operated on Elle and you'll be pleased to hear that you're sister is doing just fine. The bullet passed right through, missing her abdomnemon cavity by a few inches. It's a good thing you got here when you did or else Elle would not have made it. Her wound isn't severe but the blood loss alone almost killed her. You're sister is very lucky to be alive."

My sister was still alive... I sighed in relief and sent a silent prayer up to god. "When can i see her ?" i asked

"She's resting right now but i'll allow you to go back and see her one at a time"

"Thank you doctor..." 

I walked down the hall to elle's room and slowly pushed open the door. I knew she was okay but seeing her lying there in that hospital bed was killing me inside. This was all my fault.

I sat down in the chair right next to her bed and grabbed her hand.

"Elle.... i know you can't hear me right now but i'm sorry... it's my fault you're in here. You're my sister... my twin, my other half... i should've been able to recognize you the moment i saw saw you. I want you to know that i never stopped looking for you... i never stopped missing you. The day they took you was the worst day of my life.... I promise that when you get out of here, i'll never let anything happen to you again. Now that i've found you.. i dont know what i'd do if i ever lost you again... I need you elle." i said as tears rolled down my face. I hadn't cried since the day elle was kidnapped but i couldn't stop the tears from falling.
