I am sitting at home enjoying a nice up of my favourite red wine, waiting for Brittany and Myca to get from the dance studio when I hear a knock at the door which is strange for this time of night. I put my glass down and head to the door, when I open it I see two police officers standing there.
"Officers, Can I help you?" I ask slowly
"Are you Dr Santana Lopez-Pierce?" One of them asks
"Yes, that is me…What is this about?" I ask nervously
"May we come in?" The female officer asks
"Sure" I say opening the door wider and letting them in
"I am sorry, if I am being rude but what are you doing here? Have I done something wrong?" I ask once they get inside.
"No you haven't, done anything wrong. We are here about your Wife and daughter" the female officer says
"What happened are they okay?" I ask frantically
"They were in an accident, they are both in a critical condition and they were rushed to hospital… We are so sorry Mrs Lopez-Pierce" The female one says
"An accident? How?" I ask not quite understanding
"They were hit by a vehicle being pursued by police and the driver died on impact but your Wife and daughter were lucky and survived the impact but the injuries the suffered are life threatening" The other officer says
"I need to go, I need to get to the hospital" I say getting up and looking for my things
"Of course, we will let ourselves out. Once again we are so sorry" The female officer says before they leave.
Within a few minutes I am racing to the hospital, going nearly 40miles over the speed limit but I don't care. I pull into the hospital car park and frantically search for an empty parking space and surprisingly there are quite a few. I pull into the closet one before grabbing my purse and jumping out of the car, I quickly lock it before I sprint into the emergency room. I head to the front desk where I see a middle age woman who I recognise as Diane reading a Vogue magazine.
"Diane, have Brittany and Myca been brought in yet?" I say trying to catch my breath
"Dr Lopez-pierce?" She says putting down her magazine
"They are in rooms 6 and 7, go down the hall and turn left, they should be right there" Diane says with a small smile.
"Thank you so much" I say before taking off down the Hall.
I am running/walking down the hall, I quickly take the left and straight away I see my daughter Myca laying in a hospital bed unconscious, I look around where I see Brittany and she is in the exact same state. I walk into Brittany's room and sit down next her bed before grabbing her hand. I stand up after a few minutes and pull out my phone calling Quinn.
After a few rings, she answers
"Hey S, what's going on?" Quinn asks
"Quinn, I need you" Is all I can say before I burst into tears
"S, what's happened?" Quinn asks
"Brittany and Myca have been in accident" I barely manage to say
"I will be there in 10mins" Quinn says before hanging up
I put my phone away before falling to the floor outside Myca's room with tears running down my face and I sit there until I hear someone call my name.
"Oh my god, Santana" I hear Quinn says before she sits next to me and wraps her arms around me.
"I don't know if they are even going to wake up, what kinda of doctor doesn't know if someone is going to wake up or not" I sob out
"Santana, they are going to wake up… You know Brittany wouldn't leave you if she had a choice and Myca, she is too stubborn to go without a fight" Quinn says rubbing her hands up and down my arms.
"I know but they are in a critical condition… that means that there is good chance they won't make it" I say to her
"They are going to make it" she says before standing up and pulling me up with her
"Santana, they will make it" Quinn says again but this time I believe it…
I shouldn't have, and as to why I did I have no clue.
I am doctor, I knew what was going to happen even if I didn't want to believe it…
