Fight the Feelings

Coming to terms

Marshall p.o.v
Death! That's all I could feel as I stormed down the hospital corridors. People are looking at me recognizing me straight away but I don't care about their stares I just need to see her.
As I finally make it to where I was told to go I see Christine standing against the wall talking on her phone as always.

" Kane" I said spotting him straight away after entering this little tiny waiting room, he had his he's buried in his hands as the tears continued to flow.

" Marshall" he said, removing his hands away from his face to look up at me, this is when I really saw how upset he is and how terrified he looks. I just couldn't help but wrap my arms around him trying to comfort him

" have your heard anything?" I asked, needing answers to ease my concern and worries but by the look on his face I could tell it was bad.

" no, Christine has been on the phone the whole time and no one will tell me what's going on. I don't even know if she's alive or dead" he yelled angrily, you can tell he was getting frustrated being left out of the loop like this. I would be to if something happened and no one bothered to fill me in.

" it's going to be okay. I'll find someone who can tell us" I reassured trying to be calm and cool so he doesn't freak out but deep down I'm about to breakdown as well. I can't help but shake and clench wanting to know what's going on.

" have you called your brother and dad?" I asked knowing they need to be here as well. I think the more family is here the less Christine can get all the information and make decisions, she's probably loving this knowing it's going to make headlines but not me, matter of fact I hate being here and I hate not knowing anything.

" yeah my brother is on his way with Sam and my dad is coming home from his holiday" he answered, it's good knowing his brother is also coming with her best friend Sam. I've only met him a couple of times but from what I have heard he does a lot to help her out juggling the boys and work.

Knowing I need information, I can't deal with getting stuff from Christine I leave to find someone who can tell me what's going on with Ashley.
I search the whole hospital hoping to find someone to talk to, but not one person can tell me what's going on the only people I could find willing to talk were the cops and they just told me little information as well, nothing that really helped ease my concerns or worry.

By the time I arrived back at the little waiting room, Ashley's youngest son had arrived with her best friend Sam. Their dad was coming home from his holiday so he's not going to be here until tomorrow.

" do we know what's happening? Is she even okay?" Sam asked frustrated just like I am. Of course Christine hadn't even had the courage to call him he received a phone from Kane telling him what has happened to his best friend, and by the way he glares at Christine I can tell he's not a fan.

" they managed to stabilize her, but took her straight up to surgery to stop the bleeding. They said they'll tell us as soon as they know more" Christine replied coldly, finally the first words I've actually heard her say the whole time I've been here. Maybe it's because she's know we're four very desperate guys wanting some type of information.

" excuse me," I heard looking up just like the rest of the group does to see two cops standing there.

" I'm constable Jacob, I'm sorry for interrupting but we were just hoping to get some information from you guys?" He asked sincerely while showing us his badge making sure we know he's the real deal, I guess you really have to be careful about freak fans sneaking their way into the hospital just to get a glimpse at what's happening.

" sure if you follow me I can answer your questions" Christine said once again not wanting us to be the first to know information, it's like she needs to do this to feel powerful or something. But not this time, I'm still not even sure what bloody happened so there's no way I'm letting any of us be left in the dark any longer.
