~Fallen Ch. 3~
 

*** I should probably point out that, I’m not really a fan of Miguel, which I HAT HIM, don’t get me wrong I used to like, but now I just wish a safe would fall on his head, now I don’t have any problems with Charity except that she annoys me. So if you’re a Miguel fan you might want to stop reading now, cause I got plan for the brainless wonder, now as the for rest of the cast, well I guess you’ll just have to wait and see.

She wasn’t dead; she knew because this wasn’t what hell felt like. Hell was hot, and they’re demons poking and taunting her, this was too nice to be hell, and yet it couldn’t be heaven, she wasn’t ever going to see heaven. She suspected heaven was all white lights and annoying music, this was just white lights, and an annoying beep.

“ Hey you’re awake.” Jody, stepped up to the side of the bed, and raised the pen light to her eyes; her pupils were normal, as were her heart rate and pulse. “ You had quite a day, huh?”

“ I’m not dead.”

“ Nope, you’re not, Antonio found you in time.”

Kay blinked several times, and tired to get up. “ Antonio.” Her muscles however were rebelling against her wishes, and tired of fighting she fell back against the bed.” That figures, those damn Lopez-Fitzgerald’s are really getting on my nerves.”

“ I take it you’re unhappy that we stopped you.” The young girl merely glared, and Jody readied her self for her next question.” Did you know you where pregnant?”

“ WHAT?”

“ Then you didn’t.” Jody pulled up a chair, and sat next to the bed keeping eye contact with the girl. “ You were in your first trimester, about two months along, the fetus couldn’t handle the blood lost, I‘m sorry.”

“ Pregnant.” Kay felt the tears, and wiped them away quickly, on some level she knew it was for the best, she was in no condition to take care of a baby, and Miguel was sure to have been no help, but the word brought up a picture in her mind that caused her heart to break all over again. She looked at her doctor, with practiced indifference. “ When can I leave?”

“Not anytime soon, you tried to kill yourself, and the state of Maine has regulations about such things.” “ The state requires you to a forty-eight hour psychiatric evaluation, now if you’re deemed fit, you will be released to your own custody, because you’re a legal adult, but because of you injuries you’ll be here for at least week, and the miscarriage adds about another week to it, so I suggest you get comfortable.” She stood, and checked the IV, lowering the dose of medication. “ Your family and looks like half the town, are in the lobby, but part of the evaluation is isolation so you can’t seen them, but I can deliverer a message if you want.”

Half the town, she knew what that meant. The Lopez-Fitzgerald’s, Russell’s, and some black sheep Cranes, but no one that really cared. She could see it now, her mother comforting Charity, while Ivy and David sat huddled in a corner plotting, Theresa trying to draw Ethan’s attention to her and her son. She guessed Luis was there to support Miguel, which meant that Beth and Sheridan were there vying for his attention, while trying mentally planning their wedding, Father Lonigan had probably arrived, and was checking the hospital for evil. The room was full of idiots, and the mere thought angered her. “ Yeah I got a message.”

Grace rubbed her nieces back, trying to stop or at least slow down the sobs, emitting from the shaking girl. “ SHH, come on now Kay’s doing better.”

Charity stepped out of her aunts arms and shook her head.” I’m so sorry Aunt Grace, the last thing you need now is me getting all emotional, but I just can’t believe it.” “ That Kay would… oh god… how did this happen.” Kay was always so strong, so confident, and sure of herself, she was beautiful, and intelligent, and her role model, she couldn’t believe that she wanted to die. “ This all my fault, this about the wedding.”

Grace snapped her head up, at the statement and narrowed her eyes, wondering if Charity suspected her cousins true motivation. “ What about the wedding?”

“ This just comes at the worst time, I mean she just found out about Reese and Jessica a few weeks ago and now all these weddings, and people finding love, while the man she loved just left her for her sister, I should have know this would be hard on Kay.” “ But I’m going to make it up to her, we’ll postpone the wedding until she’s better and t…

“NO.” Miguel lowered his voice when people started staring at him, and gave an apologetic nod. “ Kay wouldn’t want to feel like she stopped our wedding, it would make her fell guilty.”

Grace stepped up behind her niece and patted her shoulder.” He’s right, it will just upset her more.” “ Now come one will talk about this later, right now I think we should get back, in case there’s news.” Gathering the coffee tray, she motioned for them to precede her, as they walked out.

Sam looked at the picture in his hand, and wondered how he missed it before. It was a recent picture taken at the engagement party of Ethan and his sisters. There were all smiles, but only two of them were real, he could see it now, that distant look in Kay’s eyes, like she was just playing. Her smiles was fake, it made him wonder how many photos were, like that. How many times he had asked her how things were going, and she said fine, when it wasn’t. Was it just this morning that he had kissed her cheek, and told her to have fun with her friends.

“Sam?” Ivy steered her chair over to her first love, her first instinct was to comfort him, but she resisted unsure of her motivation. This wasn’t the time to undermine him and Grace, he daughter was in serious trouble, and for once Ivy felt serious remorse. David was brought to break up- Sam and Grace marriage, not drive their daughter to suicide, she felt a little responsible and the feeling didn’t seat well with her. “ Do you want me to get you some coffee or something?”

“ No Grace went to get some.” But that had been twenty minutes ago, and there was still no sign of her, but then he couldn’t find Charity so he guessed they were together. He put the picture back in his wallet and focused on the door in front of him. They had moved Kay to a room, just like the doctor said they would, but he hadn’t been able to catch not even a fleeting look at his daughter. That was two hours ago, and now he only wanted more answers. “ Where is that doctor?”

“ I’m sure she’s checking on Kay, making sure everything is alright.”

“ Eve.” Sam called out to his friend, and leveled her a glare.” How good is this Dr. McCoy?”

“ She’s the best Stanford has to offer, highly recommended, I have complete faith that she do a god job.” ‘And to make sure, I’ll be right behind her, watching her every step.’

“ Chief Bennett.” The object of conversation walked into the room briskly followed closely by a plump nurse.” I have a message from Kay.”
The crowd stopped at the mention of Kay, and turned to the doctor expectantly, Grace returned and moved to stand by her husband. “ AH…. This is Nurse Granger, she’s here to verify that what I’m reading o you, is what Kay dictated.”

“ Dictated?” Hank asked as his held Jessica in his arms. “ Why was it dictated?”

“ Because Kay is not allowed sharp objects, so I wrote what she told me.” “ Ah... I want you to all remember that she did try to commit suicide, and there is the possibility that she’s not in her right mind or that she’s merely angry and lashing out.” Jody surveyed the room, making sure that everyone understood, but her gaze lingered on the dark haired boy standing by Kay’s parents, he eyes narrowed at her words.” So here we go, ‘ Consider the suicide a success’.” She looked toward Nurse Granger, and as the older woman nodded, she turned back to the stunned crowd. “ Once again Kay’s observation is now on it’s second hour of forty-eight, she not open to seeing anyone, and in fact only asked to see one person.” Jody saw him in the corner, and caught his eye.” Antonio, she asked that you be the only one allowed to see her Thursday morning, about nine o’clock.” At his nod she gave a slight smile.” I need you to come to my office before you see her just to go over some things.” She gave the occupants a final nod, and walked out.

The room was quiet after the doctor left, so people where still too stunned by Kay’s brisk not, while other’s began to wonder why Kay only wanted to see Antonio.
