Jackie didn't stop screaming until the motorcade skidded to a stop in front of the hospital. And even then it took her a moment to realize that the agents weren't going to hurt her husband.
She sat still as she watched them rush Jack into the hospital on the stretcher. Her eyes met the eyes of her secret service agent, Clint Hill.
"Mrs. Kennedy...the President needs you to be strong for him right now."
"He's dead. You and I both know it. Just leave me be!" She covered her face and quickly pulled her hands away from her face when she realized her gloves were soaked in Jack's blood.
"Mrs. Kennedy. Look at me." Clint knelt down in front of her.
Jackie looked at the man who had guarded her and her children so very well in the past three years.
"Your husband was breathing when they wheeled him in. Do you hear me? Jack was breathing, Mrs. Kennedy."
"He...he was?"
He nodded. "So get in there and make sure he fights for his life."
She nodded and bolted into the hospital. She quickly caught up with the team that was working on saving her husband.
"Is Jack ok?!?"
"KEEP HER OUT!"
"I have a right to be here!" She shouted back. "I'm his wife! He's the President!"
"Mrs. Kennedy..."
"Shut up!" Jackie glared at the doctor with a new determination in her eyes. "SHUT UP AND HELP MY HUSBAND!"
The agents in the room stood in stunned silence. They'd heard Jackie get angry at the President before but they'd never seen her like this with anyone but him. They knew that if their President didn't survive...the nation may lose the First Lady as well.
