Hey guys and gals, I have a whole new story, it's about the Ross family and how they move on from a horrible fire, trying to live life with the pain of the past, and how they can create a new, and better future. I hope you all like it and please leave a review with your ideas down below (No mean reviews please) and I do not own Jessie or any of the characters.
(Beginning of Chapter 1) P.S - I changed their ages a little just to fit the story.
It was 9:13 pm, Christina and Morgan jumped out of the car and ran inside the hospital. They ran into the waiting room, it was white, with three small windows, there were uncomfortable-looking chairs against the wall, and people all around. There was also a desk on the other side of the room, with a tall, blonde woman looking at some papers. Christina and Morgan ran to the desk, Christina read the name tag which said "Bethany" as the woman looked up at the couple. Morgan said "Hello miss, were here for our children, they were rushed to the hospital after a fire at our penthouse!" as he tried to catch his breath. Christina said "Their names are Emily, Lucas, Ravi, and Zuri Ross" anxious to find out where her kids were.
"Oh yes, they were rushed here about half-an-hour ago" Bethany replied.
"Okay, what are their conditions!" Morgan asked nervously.
"I'm sorry, I don't know, their doctor, Dr. Kennedy can tell you, but I can tell you what room the kids are in" Bethany replied.
"Yes please what room?" Christina asked.
Bethany looked at her computer and said "They are on the 5th floor in room 541"
"Okay thank you!" the couple said as they raced towards the elevator. Morgan pressed the button and the elevator doors opened, they both ran inside and Christina hit the 5th floor. The doors closed and the elevator went up. The doors opened on the 5th floor, and the couple dashed out and searched for room 541. Once they found it, they opened the door and saw Zuri, their 7 year old daughter, sleeping in a bed.
They both walked over to Zuri and watched her sleep. She looked so little. Suddenly, Dr. Kennedy walked in and was surprised to see Morgan and Christina.
"Oh, Mr. And Mrs. Ross, I didn't know you were in here!" Dr. Kennedy said.
"Dr. Kennedy! Please, how are our children?" Christina asked.
"Well, Zuri here is fine, she inhaled a little smoke, but will be fine" Dr. Kennedy replied.
"What about the others?" Morgan asked.
"Well, Ravi is fine, there just checking up on him, they should roll him in here in about ten minutes" Dr. Kennedy said.
"And Emma and Luke?" Christina asked.
"Well, their cases are more severe, Emma inhaled a lot of smoke and has a couple cuts and bruises, but she also broke her leg during the chaos" Dr. Kennedy said.
"But she will be fine?" Morgan asked.
"If her lung check goes fine, then yes, but she will be wearing a cast on her leg for about 6 weeks" Dr. Kennedy said.
"Okay, well, what about Luke?" Christina asked concerned.
"Well, during all the chaos, he apparently fell on top of a glass table, and he was stabbed in the stomach by a glass shard" Dr. Kennedy said sadly.
"Oh my god!" Christina and Morgan said.
"The glass cut an artery in his stomach and caused internal bleeding" Dr. Kennedy added.
"Will he be alright?" Morgan asked.
"We don't know yet, he is in surgery now, and he won't be out for at least three or four hours, and they can't stop and tell us what's going on, and then after that, they need to check his lungs as well" Dr. Kennedy said to the couple.
"Wait, so why aren't you operating on Luke?" Morgan asked.
"Because the case was to severe for me, we have the professionals working on him" Dr. Kennedy replied.
"So the best doctors in this hospital are doing surgery on Luke?" Morgan asked.
"Yes, I hope that relaxes you a little bit" Dr. Kennedy said as he was about to leave, but stopped and said "Oh, and Emma should be done with her checkup in about half-an-hour"
"Thank you Dr. Kennedy" Christina said as he left.
"Okay, well, we'll wait for Ravi and Emma to get here, and then wait for Luke, and then just do what the doctors tell us to do" Morgan said trying to lighten the mood.
"What happened! How did the fire happen! Where's Jessie!" Christina said while raising her voice.
"Calm down Christina, I'm gonna go to the apartment and find out okay!" Morgan said.
"Alright fine, I will stay here and wait for Ravi and Emma" Christina said.
"Okay, just make sure that if they wake up before I'm back, tell them I love them" Morgan replied.
"Of course honey" Christina said as Morgan left the room.
- 45 minutes later -
Christina was sitting in a chair, Ravi and Emma had already been rolled to the room and were placed by Zuri. They were all asleep in their hospital beds, all of them hooked to tubes and wires. Suddenly, Morgan walked into the room. Christina jumped up and said "Hey sweetie" and kissed him. Morgan said "Hey honey" and kissed her back, Morgan then walked over to Ravi and Emma and kissed their foreheads. Christina then said "Well, what happened?"
"Well, the fire completely destroyed the penthouse, everything was burned to ashes, all of our furniture, all the kid's pictures, all of our clothes, everything" Morgan said.
"Okay, well, we can buy a new house, buy new furniture, and can replace the kid's pictures with one's stored in my phone, and we can buy new clothes! The important thing is that we still have are children, they can never be replaced" Christina said.
"Yeah, but the fire started upstairs, apparently, a hair curler was left on, and it started the fire in a bathroom, Jessie's bathroom. Then the fire spread across the second floor and made its way downstairs" Morgan said.
Christina became furious and said "You mean this whole thing is because of Jessie! I swear I'm going to fire her sorry..." but was cut off my Morgan saying "Jessie's dead Christina, she died in the fire, she was apparently trying to put out the fire, and the flames overwhelmed her, or the smoke got to her before the fire."
"Oh my god!" Christina said.
"Bertram lived, but he was burned, a lot, he's practically unrecognizable" Morgan said.
"Oh god!" Christina said again.
"He's not suing! But he did quit" Morgan said.
"I wouldn't blame him" Christina said.
"How are the kids?" Morgan asked as he looked at his sleeping children.
"Well, Emma, Ravi, and Zuri are fine" Christina said.
"What about Luke?" Morgan asked concerned for his oldest son.
"No news, they're not done with surgery" Christina said with tears forming in her eyes.
"Well, Luke is a strong kid, he'll get through this, if anything he needs to help us get through this" Morgan said trying to calm his wife.
"I hope so" Christina said.
