MACK POV~

As blood cascaded down my arms and dripped, leaving a trail, to the floor, I ran as fast as I could into the nearest animal hospital. Rosko whimpered in my arms and was starting to shift all his weight forward into my chest. I could barely hear Harry's footsteps behind me because all that I  could hear was my heartbeat and how it felt like it was pumping directly in my ears. 

The doors open swiftly, as they are automatic, and my converse squeak against the floor as my footsteps become louder. The front desk is right in front of me in mere seconds as I look to the woman who is already coming out from behind  her chair and getting someone else to help her. 

"Ma'am I need you tell me what happened." the woman speaks calmly and soothingly to my face as she lifts Rosko from my arms and hands him to a tall male standing beside her.

"I dont know, I- I was just sitting th-there and then I heard him whining and then I saw the blood." the words are like vomit emmiting from my mouth as I frantically tell the woman what had happened. She turned to the man and told him to bring Rosko into a different room. 

"Wha- where are you taking him?" I chased after the tall man that was holding Rosko. "Please, tell me whats wrong with him!" I shouted shakily at the man staring at me with a scared kind of expression. He looked like he could be 17.

I felt an arm grab my waist as I tried to push open the swinging doors that lead to the back of the hospital. I pulled against the force as the two doors closed in my face. I was suddenly lifted from the ground and put over a shoulder. I hit the back of the person that was keeping me from seeing my bestfriend. I then noticed all the tears escaping my eyes and soaking this persons back. I sniffed and more tears kept flowing. 

I was set down on my feet and I was met with the face of Harry. He bent down so his face was inches from mine. I looked away so I wouldn't be sobbing right in his face. I heard a sigh coming from him as he stood up straight and looked through the doors of the hospital. 

I stared at the ground for a while after my sob attack had subsided. My thoughts were all over the place as I pulled my hair from frustration and the thought that Rosko could be dying. My knees felt weak as this wave of panic struck me like a bolt of lightning. I fell to the floor and crawled up in my tears and sobs. I was numb all over and there was so much pressure in my head I couldn't think. 

My limp body was lifted from the floor as someone tried to make me stand. My legs were like jelly as I just fell on my knees once more. I heard feet shuffle from above me as my face was lifted from my hands and held in the big warm hands of someone. I open my eyes to see Harry again. I honestly thought he had left minutes ago. I look away again just for the fact that I don't like it when people see me cry.

"Mackenzie, look at me." he spoke softly to me as he tried to get my attention. I remember my grandma doing this to me whenever she would hear me wake up from a nightmare. As the soothing thought of my grandma comes to mind my body relaxes and I turn to the emerald eyed man crouching down in front of me. 

"Listen, I need you to relax, breathe." He starts to lead by example as he breathes deep in and out persuading me to start relaxing. 

"He's going to be fine, they are only going to help him okay." his voice soothes my mind and body as I start breathing steady again. His dark murky green eyes stare into my dark lifeless ones as my body untenses.  

"There you go, there you go." he whispers delicately as his hot breathe fans around my face.

NEXT MORNING~

MACK POV~

I am jolted awake from a very uncomfortable sleep in a chair from the waiting room as the nurse who gave me a benadryl last night stands in front of me. I look up through cloudy vision and tired eyes to the kind woman holding out a white styraphome cup full of water. I smile a small smile and with a weak arm, I take the cup from her hold. I take a huge gulp of the water, soothing my hoarse throat as I empty the cup.

I squint up to the nurse again and ask, "How long was I out for?"

She looks at the delicate wrist watch strapped around her wrist and tells me I had slept for a good five hours. I sigh and look around the bright lit waiting room which is carefully decorated with paintings here and there. 

"Can I see him now?" I ask the woman standing in front of me as if Rosko is a person. 

"That actually is part of the reason I woke you up." She tells me

"Okay what's the other part?" I ask

"I wanted to tell you the condition your dog is in and what had happened to him,"  She explains

"Well what was wrong with him?" 

"The doctor tells me your dog was poisoned and there were glash shards found in his intestines which caused internal bleeding. We removed the shards and patched eveything up and cleared his system of the poison. He will be jsut fine but you must keep an eye on hin for the next three days." The nurse slowly explained to me.

It was a good thing I was sitting while she told me this because I was already about to throw up from all the shit I just heard. I don't know where he would have found glass shards, and who would poison a dog they didn't know! I didn't know anyone in New York besides the people I work with and my grandma. I was furious.

I stood up and massaged my temples with both trembling hands. It was too early for this. I asked the woman to take me to him and she asked if I was okay to walk. I was already walking so it was a dumb question. I felt annoyed with everyone and everything and all I wanted to do was see my best friend. I know what you might think.

Wow, your dog is your bestfriend.

That's pretty sad.

Yeah well, welcome to my life.
