“SPENCER!” Both Ashley and Madison yelled trying to hold the girl up.

“Her heart rate is erratic, we need to stabilize her!” A male voice drifted in through the light being shined through Spencer’s eyes. She tried opening them but the images were hazy.

“Come on baby please!” She could hear Ashley’s voice to the side of her but before she could see her eyes closed again.

Hospital

Ashley sat in the waiting room, her mind reeling from earlier events. Her mouth was dry and her head hurt. Aiden was in with the doctor getting stitches, his wound was not too serious. Clay and Kyla talked near the back wall, Chelsea was shot twice. Once in her stomach and the other in the leg, she was in surgery now. Then there was Spencer, Ashley rocked slowly in her seat. She remembered checking the other girl for injury but there wasn’t any, now she was lying in a hospital bed. Tears threatened to spill but she held back, to tired to cry yet again.

“Ash?” Kyla sat next to her, she felt sorry for her sister with everything that had happened. Kyla tried to be mad at Ashley but couldn’t focus the energy. Ashley glanced up from her hands, “Can I sit?”

The brunette nodded her head, “Kyla I’m so sorry….” the tears she held back fell softly down her cheeks, “I swear I didn’t know Aiden was going to pull something like that…” Kyla pulled her sister into a hug, Ashley melted into Kyla’s arms, letting everything out. The sisters stayed that way for an hour.

Clay sat next to them, no one wanted to talk because it was just too much to handle at the moment. So he sat there with his hand on Ashley’s knee, she tried to tell him something but the second she said Chelsea’s name her tears fell again. Soon a doctor came out, he was thirty something with dark black hair, his tired eyes fell on the teenagers.

“How are they?” Clay stood up, needing to know that his girlfriend and child was safe.

“Chelsea is doing fine and so is the baby, we managed to get both bullets out. The one in her stomach just missed the baby by inches, the surgeons closed the torn wall. She’ll be sedated for now, until she wakes up we won’t know any more.”
