Fight for your life

Part 8

Danny opened his eyes slowly, immediately feeling guilty for jerking away from Cameron. He moved over slightly, resting his head lightly against his shoulder, careful not to hit his side as he did so. He hadn't been paying attention to much of anything when he finally realized sam was talking to someone. He took in a shaky breath as the ambulance started, pulling off as the paramedic left in back checked them all over.

Sam's eyes moved to Cameron when he noticed the glass in his side. He gasped slightly, almost forgetting he was on the phone. Shaking his head, he gripped the phone tightly, clearing his throat "jakes one of the ones hurt, Andy" he said, a few tears managing to slip down his cheeks. "I can't really tell you anything else right now because that's all we know. Jake & Ben were rushed to the hospital and the rest of us are following behind"

Matt wasted no time in hurrying to his husbands side. He sat next to him on the floor, swallowing hard as he waited for news on their friends. "Baby, is jake okay?" He asked softly, hoping for the best.

Cameron looked up when Sam gasped, realizing for the first time that he'd been previously unaware of the injury. Swallowing hard, he shook his head slightly to assure him that he was fine, despite the gradual weakening of his muscles as blood seeped down his side, soaking the side of his pants. He leaned back against the side of the ambulance, closing his eyes slowly. He felt tired in a way that he'd only felt once before, and the reminder of how scared Sam had been had him forcing his eyes open again.

James listened to the conversation from one side, bringing his hands up and into his hair while his head ducked. Gripping it tightly, he flung his leg out, kicking the opposing bench roughly while he gave a loud, angry yell of a curse. He didn't understand why things kept happening to them, why they ALWAYS happened to them, but he was so tired of the tests and trials that they seemed to be forced into.

Andy shook his head slightly at Matt's question, holding the phone tightly to his ear. "Let me know what hospital you're at as soon as you can, please." He requested before hanging up to stare absently at the floor. "They're on their way to the hospital. Jake and Ben were rushed tot he hospital and they're hurt, but they don't know anything else," he explained quietly, picking at his phone cover nervously.

Danny looked up when James screamed, causing him to jump slightly. It was obvious they were all on edge right now. They all needed answers, and why was this taking so long? His eyes focused on the window, wishing they'd get there already. His finger mindlessly played with the band on his finger.

Sam nodded, telling Andy he'd call him back as soon as they heard anything. He slid over to Cameron, sighing softly as he brought his hand up to the guitarists hair "you need to get checked out too" he said, eyes snapping shut as a pain ran across him when he coughed. "Fuck" he turned slightly when the ambulance came to a stop. The two men upfront came, opened the doors and stepped aside to give them room to pass.

Matt bit on his lower lip gently as he ran his fingers through Andy's hair. "I'm sure they're find, baby"

As the doors opened, Cameron caught a glimpse of the scene unfolding outside. His eyes widened and he quickly stood, trying to block Danny's view, but as he stood too quickly, his eyes fluttered and dizziness took over momentarily.

Outside the paramedics struggled to keep Ben on the stretcher as his body seized, shaking violently against the stretcher and very nearly going over the edge more than once. With a mask over his face and brace around his neck, the split over the front of his head was visible even through the unruly hair. His eyes opened, only to roll back into his head while one paramedic hurried to hoist his stiffened body back onto the stretcher, rushing him inside while he yelled frantic orders and information to the nurses that took over.

James had the perfect view of Ben as Cameron's balance faltered and he stumbled to the side, and his chest tightened as he watched, the sight making his stomach turn until he was stumbling out of the ambulance, collapsing to his knees while he hurled, quickly emptying anything that may have been in his stomach onto the pavement, silently praying that Danny hadn't seen anything.

Andy shook his head while he looked up at Matt, face paler than usual. His grip on his phone tightened and he shook is head again, trying to keep his composure. "I need to call everyone, and we need plane tickets. Can you pack?" He questioned quickly, already scrolling through his phone for Ashley's number.

Danny's eyes widened as his he looked at the sight in front of him. He pushed his way out of the ambulance, crying out loudly as he tried getting closer to his husband. He pushed past various doctors and nurses, tears cascading down his cheeks as he took Ben's hand, not listening to the voices telling him he needed to step back. "Baby" he stated, running along side of the stretcher, "baby I'm here okay. You've got to get through this. I need you Ben" he cried loudly. One of the doctors finally managed to tear Danny's grip from Ben's hand, standing in front of him to stop him from going any further. "Let us help him" he told Danny, patting him gently on the shoulder "if we don't get him help now, who knows what will happen" and as the doctor turned and hurried in the room, Danny felt his knees give out from under him and he collapsed on the floor.
