Chasing Fintry

chapter 26- It means your human

I felt my blood run cold when the nurse said that. He's crashing. Crashing. Karen let out a big sob and held my hand. We walked into the waiting room and sat on the couch. Bailey and Ashton sat beside us. I fought back the tears, so much had happened today I just wanted this day to be over with. I pulled my knees up to my chest and wrapped my arms around them tightly. I closed my eyes as I rested my cheek on my knees. I felt a hand touch my back a few minutes later. I saw Karen standing up. "I'm going to get something to eat, do you kids want anything?" she asked all three of us. "A diet coke please." I spoke up. "A pack of crackers and a pepsi." Bailey said. "Ashton will you come help me carry the food back." Karen spoke quietly he nodded and stood up following her.

Bailey stood up and came sat beside me. "Boo you don't have to be this strong were here for you. We will help you carry the weight." She said rubbing my shoulder. "No I have to be strong for the boys." I whispered. "Crying doesn't make you weak it means your human." She said seeing right through me. That's when I broke. Sobs wracked my body as Bailey held me. "They don't deserve this." I managed to choke out between the sobs. Bailey rubbed my hair as I sobbed. I felt as if everything I held close was falling apart. "Is anyone here family of Wyatt Grey?" A doctor said, I stood up and walked over to him. "Wyatt is out of surgery you can go see him now." I nodded and followed him to the room. He was asleep probably because of the anesthesia. There was a bandage around his head. I pulled a chair close to his bed. I grabbed his hand and gave it a tiny squeeze. I saw his eyes slowly flutter open. He looked over at me, before he looked around. "What happened did I slip when we went bowling?" I shook my head. "A jeep hit you and Elliot on your side of the car. You were having brain swelling so they had to fix that, on the other hand you have a bald spot now." I saw his eyes widen before gently touching his head. I laughed. "My gorgeous hair." He whined.

"How is Elliot?" I sighed. "He crashed earlier. They took him away about an hour ago." He nodded and squeezed my hand. "He won't leave you he will fight until he has nothing left. That boy looks at you like I've never seen him look at anybody not even Amber, he won't leave you, your his world now. Your all he talks about, he has even talked about buying a ring." I felt my mouth drop. "Forget I said that, but my point is he loves you so much." I nodded and wiped my eyes. "Go wait on him, send up some others for a while." He said, Nodding I stood up and gently hugged him.

I walked back to the waiting room and Karen headed up to see Wyatt. "Have they said anything?" I asked as bailey handed me a can of diet coke. She shook her head as I opened the can and sipped on it. I sat down and pulled out my phone. Karen came back about forty-five minutes later, she motioned for Bailey and Ashton to go see Wyatt. It had been almost two hours since they took Elliot back. I groaned as another half hour passed and Ashton came back with Bailey, saying Wyatt was asleep now. I sighed and leaned against the couch I was resting on. It was now about ten at night. I felt my eyes start drooping, probably because I was exhausted from todays events. I slowly felt my self falling asleep.

What seemed like only thirty minutes later but what was really about two hours later I was woken up. I jumped up. "Any news on Elliot?" I asked as soon as I sat up. Karen shook her head. "I was going to tell you me and Bailey are gonna head back to campus to explain everything, I thought you and Ashton would like to stay since you both are close to him." I nodded and got comfy again, not falling asleep though. I sighed it was almost five hours since they took him. Ashton stood up and came sat beside me. "So you are marrying my best friend?" I asked teasing him some. He nodded. "Thanks for being clumsy that day or I would have never met her." I laughed at this. For the next hour we joked around trying to not let the situation get us down. "Who's here with Elliot Dawson?" I stood up and walked over to the doctor. "Elliot had a shard of glass piercing his heart, we missed that in the first scan we did, luckily we fixed everything, what my nurses also failed to tell me is there was a shard in his brain to, he is in a coma at this time." I felt my heart stop. "How could you miss two things that big?" I yelled at him. "Your supposed to be a doctor, not try to kill him, you are a pathetic excuse for a doctor." I yelled even louder. Ashton came and stood beside me. "What's wrong?" He asked clearly puzzled why I was yelling at the doctor. "This idiot, failed to see a piece of glass in is heart, and his brain, so Elliot is in a coma now." I said glaring at the doctor. I saw the anger in Ashton's eyes. "Look just take me to see him." I said trying not to kill the doctor with my bare hands. He nodded and I followed while Ashton stayed to tell the others when they came.
