Maggie's pov
Mer was taking forever to get her ass put of bed. The kids were already up. I get Ellis ready and give her baby food. Baliey asks for waffles.
"Auntie Maggie, can we please have waffles"? Baliey asked with a cheesy smile.
"Yeah we can" I reply.
"Yay"! He squeals.
I just laughed to myself. I grab my phone. I look up recipes. After my first batch I gave up. Then an idea came into my head. I dialed the number. It began to ring.
"Hello"? Alex answered.
"Hey, Alex do you mind if I use your waffle recipe. I tried to look one up. But my first batch failed and Baliey really wants waffles" I complained.
"Yeah I will send the recipe, Maggie I got go see you at work" Alex stated before he hung up.
I started to make them again. After they were done. I noticed that Mer was still not up. She is so irritating sometimes. I run up the stairs. I walk over to Mer's door. I knock on the door. She doesn't answer.
"Mer, time to get up", I said as I was knocking on her door.
"No, Maggie I can't go to work today I just know something is going to happen", She begged.
"Mer, come on your going be late, get up now",! I argued in frustration.
"Fine"! She snapped.
I watch her head to the bathroom. I head down stairs to feed the kids. After a little while Mer finally goes downstairs.
"Those waffles look great", She chipped.
"Thanks, I used Alex's recipe. I asked him if he minded and he said no", I state as I wash the leftover dishes.
"Oh tell him thank you" , She replied quckily as She realized we only had little over half hour until work started.
"Mer we should get going", I implied.
Mer grabs the kids and we get into the car.
As she was driving. I felt a jolt. I didn't know
what was happening. The car shifted brusquely. They were tiny little cries from the back seat. I was scared for my life.
"Mommy, what's going on"?, Zola asked scared.
"I don't know sweetheart, I will make sure we are okay", Mer tells her with a calming tone.
The steering wheel locked. We were going 45 mph. I saw tried to turn the steering wheel but it wouldn't budge. The car kept going. This time Mer tried the break. She slammed her foot on the break. Nothing happened. I start to panic. I saw we were heading into the car in front. Mer tried the steering wheel one last time. This time She was able to swerve out of the way. I braced myself for impacted.
"Mer, watch out,! I screamed.
"Mommy slow down"! Zola Screeched as we turn upside down.
The car tumbled over. My head slammed hard. I could feel a terrible pain in my ankle. I knew it was either broken or spranged. I was hanging upside down. The car was now on its roof instead of the wheels on the road. I started feeling really light headed. My stomach ached. My vision was getting less clear every minute. The last thing I saw was Mer checking me for a pulse as tears fall.
"Maggie, please wake up, the car is going to blow up soon", I heard Mer beg me to wake up.
"Mer", I grasped on to her.
"Maggie can you move anything"?, She asked.
"Yeah, I think I can walk" I stated.
I climb out of the car. I hobbled my way to other side of the road on my throbbing spranged ankle. I finally reached the other side of the road with Ellis and Baliey in my arms.I saw Mer slamming her hands on the car. She continued to hit the car repeatedly. I raced over to her with my spranged ankle.
"Mer, what happened"? I asked. But I stopped when I saw Zola with her closed eyes.
"Oh Mer, I'm so so sorry, this happened" I say as I let her cry on my bruised shoulder.
It wasn't long before the car started smoking and I carried Mer as I ran. Then I go back and grab Zo. Literally seconds later there was a huge boom. Smoke covered the sky. The sky that was once light blue turned into a dark pitch black as it spread out through the sky. I covered my head from the falling debris. And Mer did the same. Ellis was crying again. She lifted her head off the ground. She grabs Ellis from her car seat. Mer rocks her in her arms. Even tho they looked weak and tired. She still continued rocking her until she falls asleep. In the distance I could hear sirens. The got louder and louder each time. The ambulance pulls to a stop. They climb out of the back doors. Mer's vision started to blur from the blood lose. Her eyes fell closed. Tears pour down my face. My face has tones of dark red dried on blood. I watch as Mer gets carried onto the stretcher. The paramedic walks by me.
"Ma'am, could you answer a few questions for us"? I just nod.
"What happened"? He asked.
I shallowed a huge gulp. I sucked in as much air as I could before I breathed back out. I begin to explain to the paramedic.
"We got into the car. All sudden I notice that the steering wheel locked. We were going 45 MPH. After a the steering wheel wouldn't budge. She tried the brake. But the brake failed. She then tried the steering wheel one more time. She swerved out of the way and the car tumbled around" I told the paramedic as tears rolled down my cheeks.
"Thank you, Ma'am, now lets get you checked out" the short, muscular men said.
I was put gingerly on the strencher as they assessed my injures. They then put me in the ambulance and shut the doors. I heard whispers.
"I wonder how long they were out there"? One short blonde whispered.
"From the look of the girl, with the black hair curly. She was pinned under the car. Her father was Derek Shepard, the great neurosurgeon" The other girl explained to the blonde.
"Oh my god, and her mother is Meredith Grey, the Chief Of General Surgery at Grey Sloan Memorial" The blonde said shocked.
The ambulance came to a fast stop. I felt my body jolt from the gravity. They opened door. I was pulled out first. The first set of surgeons rushed to the gurney.
" Maggie pierces 28, multiple fractures in her left arm. A spranged ankle. Trouble breathing" The dark haired women told them.
"Maggie" Alex sighed as I could hear his breath quicken.
"Alex" I frantically called out.
"Where is Mer" He asked with his voice full of worry.
I tried to hide the scared look on my face, but Alex saw right through it.
"Mag, what happened? Where's Mer? Are the kids okay" Alex cried out frantically as tears poked through.
"Alex, you need to calm down, before I tell you" I replied. He's breathing soften.
"Meg, tell me. I can handle it" Alex states.
"We we're leaving for work. As Mer was driving. She tried to turn the steering wheel. But it wouldn't turn" I tell him. I could see more tears poke through his blue eyes. They looked so fragile. I didn't think I should continue. But his eyes were just pleading. I continued to explain.
"She then tried the brake. She slammed her foot down on it. Nothing happened. One last time she tried the steering wheel. This time it worked and she swerved out of the way. She lost control of the car. We flipped upside down. I was conscious for few minutes after we flipped upside. I woke up to Mer begging me to wake up. Not long after I climbed out of the car and grabbed Baliey and Ellis. We went to other side of the road. I heard Mer slamming her hands on the car repeatedly. I looked over and rushed to her side. When I saw" I couldn't finish my sentence. I start let the a bunch of tears from eyes on to my face, neck. Alex saw the tears and started to look panicked.
"Maggie, please don't tell me something else happened" Alex begged as tears soaked his cheeks.
"I saw Zola on the ground with her eyes closed" I chocked on my tears as I told Alex.
"Noooo!" Alex cried.
"I know , Then I carried Mer to other side on my throbbing spranged ankle. I went back for Zola. Minutes later the car exploded. Smoke was everywhere. I could barely see. I don't know how long it look for us to be found. It felt hours" I explained as more tears fell.
"Oh god" Alex finally said.
I started to to fall in and out of consciousness. My eyes start to feel heavy.
"Maggie, no. Stay alive"! I heard Alex yell. I fought to stay awake. I lost the battle. My very tired eyes shut.
