A/N: I only own my OC's

A/N: Thank you Rated-R-Edgehead for the review, much appreciated!

Chapter 2

Gentle hands touched my arms, I turned to face the person.

"Don't get up. Did you hit your head? You might have a concussion." Edge said softly before I could move anymore.

"I don't think I hit my head. My stomach. . . It hurts really bad."

"Ok, come on lets get you some help." Edges arms slipped underneath me, lifting me in his arms bridal style.

"Don't carry me, I can walk." I protested but wrapped my arms around his neck anyways. He carried me easily, as though I were a baby.

"I don't want you walking, you could be hurt."

"Ok," I whispered.

Edge put me down and opened a car door gesturing me into the backseat.

"Where are you taking me?"

"First the hospital. Then I need to get you home, seeing as he left you and this is my fault."

"No it's not he's just jealous and possessive."

Edge quickly located the nearest, hospital keeping an eye on me in the backseat while he drove.

"You doing ok back there?" He asked as he drove.

"Yeah.." I said and groaned from a sharp cramp.

"Just hang on. The turn for the hospital is just up ahead."

Edge pulled into a spot for the ER room and hopped out.

"No! Stay here!" Edge ordered when I went to get out.

"I can walk!" I protested.

"Just let me get you a wheelchair." He ran into the hospital and came back out almost as quickly with a wheelchair.

"Calm down, you'll tip me over you keep running around like that." I said and I couldn't help giggling at his steering of the wheelchair.

Edge ended up fibbing to the nurses, telling him I was his sister, which actually wasn't so hard to believe. We both have long blonde hair and hazel eyes so there are similarities.

*Edges POV*

I sat in the ER waiting room nervously, poor Maxi; I feel so responsible for this. Maxi told me it wasn't my fault what that guy did to her, but he thought I was hitting on her. The guilt gnawed at me.

"Mr. Copeland?" A nurse called out.

"Yeah, that's me," I said standing up and walking to the nurse. She gestured for me to follow her until we were standing outside a room.

"How is she?"

"Very good, actually rather lucky considering the circumstances. No concussion or broken bones, mainly just bruising."

"And the baby?"

"Are you the father? Its hospital policy to only discuss pregnancy with the mother or father."

"No, but I'm her brother."

"I'm sorry Mr. Copeland but its our policy. If Maxine wishes to tell you then that's her decision."

"Well can I see her?"

"Of course you can. She is sleeping right now. She will probably be out until morning; I'd advise you go home and sleep yourself."

"No, I wanna see her." I insisted, even though the nurse refused to say anything. I knew had a bad feeling in my gut that she'd lost the baby.

I was allowed into Maxi's hospital room. The sight of her took my breath away, she looked so weak and vulnerable. An IV tube in her arm and a bandage around her head, for a minor cut that had needed a couple staples even though she said she didn't hit her head.

Her thin hospital gown put a lot of bruises on display. There was a thin blanket tangled by her feet. There were bruises on her arms and legs varying from old yellowing ones to newer ones vivid in purples and blues.

There was a reclining chair off to one corner along with a blanket I assumed they'd expected me to stay with her. I untangled her blanket and covered her up before kicking off my shoes and settling into the recliner for the night.

I awoke the next morning and the sun had just barely started to peak out. 6 am, my usual time to get up."Shit", I cursed softly realizing I was supposed to be at a house show in a town 5 hours away tonight. There was no way I'm even trying to make it. Checking my phone I found several texts, the latest one from Jay less then 10 minutes ago asking me to call him.

"Where have you been? Everybody's looking for you! For some reason they think you took off and came to visit me." Jay answered when he took the call.

"The hospital."

"What? What's wrong, did you get hurt?"

"No I'm fine. I took someone in last night and I'm staying until she gets released."

"She? We've got a show booked tonight you gotta be there."

"No I don't, I'm gonna call Vince in a bit and I think he'll let it slide."

"Well at least tell me what's going on."

"I can't, not over the phone its not that simple. I'll explain it to you when I see you."

Jay wasn't happy and threatened to come find me at the hospital but in the end he had to get on the road and agreed to wait until we could talk more.

Glancing at the bed I saw Maxi awake, she looked a little sleepy still.

"Hey, when did you wake up?" I said sitting beside the hospital bed and pouring her some water.

"I don't know. Whenever you made that call cause the talking woke me up," Maxi said very hoarsely. "I'm sorry I should've went outside."

"It's ok, I slept a lot anyways."

"How you feeling?"

"Maxine! Your awake, that's good." A very cheery nurse chirped as she bounced into the room without knocking. "And how are we feeling?" The nurse asked as she took vitals.

"Not bad I guess. Just sore, my throats really parched and I'm starved."

"Well your vitals are right where they should be. Keep on sipping water and that should help with your throat. Breakfast normally isn't served here until 8am. But I can get you some crackers if you'd like."

I scoffed making the nurse and Maxi look at him.

"She needs more than crackers after what she's been through," I stated as they both stared at me. "Is the cafeteria open? I'll bring her up some food."

"Yes it is but cafeteria food is not normally allowed outside of the cafeteria."

"Come on look at what the girls been through. You really want her to wait nearly 3 hours for breakfast when I can just go get her something?" I said and gave her my "Edge" grin.

"Very well Mr. Copeland. I'll allow you to bring her a tray but only this one time."

I got Maxi a little of everything for the breakfast foods. A fresh fruit cup toast, pancakes, sausage and bacon. A cup of coffee and OJ and a single serving box of cereal and milk for it.

*Maxi's POV*

"Maxi, can I come in?" Edge called from outside the hospital room door.

"Yeah." I croaked out.

Edge set a heaping tray on my bedside table. I couldn't help but laugh even though it hurt to laugh.

"What didn't you bring me?"

"Well I wanted some eggs for you but they didn't have any yet."

"I was kidding, Edge!" "Please, call me Adam."
