The Lives We Live

Chapter 25

An early update for you guys! Enjoy and let me know what you think!

I have a feeling that pain is coming.

YOU WOULD HAVE NOTICED THAT SHE HATES HIM! THAT SHE'S SCARED OF HIM!

I love you, Cheryl.

I love you, Toni. Please don't leave me.

I love you, till heart stops beating.

Was all that could go through Toni's mind as she was being rushed to the hospitals. She could barely keep her eyes open but she could feel that her sister was beside her. She was crying at the view of her sister being all bruised up and barely breathing. The doctors stopped Veronica as they entered through the double doors of the operation room.

Cheryl was all dressed up and putting her earrings on as Reggie fixed his tie, he kept taking glances at her. Her phone rang informing her that Veronica was calling. Her heart dropped and looked at Reggie who gave her a questioned look. "Who is it at this time of night?"He asked annoyed.

"It's Veronica," She replied with a shaky voice.

"What does she want?"

Cheryl looked at her phone again as it was still ringing.

"What's wrong? Answer it."

The redhead sighed and answered the call. "Hey Veronica,"

"C-Cheryl, I'm sorry I'm calling at this hour."

"Don't worry about it, is something wrong?"

"Toni had an accident, she's in the is operating on her right now."

Cheryl's legs gave out on her. She couldn't breathe, her heart started beating so fast in her chest. "What accident?"

"A car accident,"

"Is she okay?" She asked with sadness and fear in her voice.

"I don't know yet, but-"

"But what?" The redhead asked as she was breathing heavily.

"You really need to come see her, just in case sh-she doesn't make it."

"She doesn't make it? What hospital are you in?" At this, Reggie whipped his head to the redhead's direction.

"Lower Manhattan Hospital"

The redhead didn't say anything. She just hung up the phone.

"Who was in an accident?" Reggie asked as he never removed his eyes on his wife throughout her phone call.

"Toni,"

"And why was Veronica calling you?"

"I don't know. Because I don't know." She said as she started to panic. She got up and was about to leave the bedroom when Reggie stood in front of her and shook his head. She grabbed her keys and ran to the door.

"Where the fuck are you going?" He asked following her. "If you left this house right now you aren't coming back, Cheryl." He said as the redhead was opening the door.

She stopped and just looked at him before closing the door half way. She then looked at him again and opened the door and running to her car. Reggie stood there dumbfounded by what just happened. Cheryl left for Toni.

Rushing through the hospital doors, Diane came running until she found Veronica. The raven haired girl had her head in her hands as a million thought was rushing through her brains.
