One-shot
Hanna, Spencer, and Aria were standing by Hanna's locker as she grabbed books from her shelf. They were just minding their business, when Mona ran up to Hanna with a panicked look on her face. "Hanna, Emily's being rushed to the hospital!"
All the color drained from Hanna's face and she dropped the books in her hand. "Wh-what? Why?"
"I don't know. She just fell on the ground and she was clutching her stomach, so they called 911 and the paramedics came and got her. She's on the way to the hospital now." Mona rushed out.
"W-well, is she okay?" Hanna was crying now.
"I really don't know. They wouldn't tell us anything." Mona frowned. Hanna instantly made her way to her car, with Aria and Spencer on her trail.
"Hanna, let me drive. You're in no state to operate a 4 thousand pound machine." Spencer tried to grab Hanna's keys out of her hands.
"No, my girlfriend is in the hospital and I don't know why. She could be dying for all I know!" Hanna shouted as she unlocked her car doors.
"All the more reason to let Spencer drive. Do you want to end up in the hospital, too?" Aria asked. Hanna stopped for a second and handed her keys to Spencer.
"Fine, but only because I want to see Emily." Hanna said before hurryingly getting into the passenger seat. Spencer and Aria climbed in the car as well, and Spencer placed the key in the ignition.
"Can you please hurry?" Hanna sighed. Her tears were falling constantly and she couldn't get her hands to stop shaking.
"Okay, okay. Calm down." Spencer pulled out of the school parking lot, and made her way to the Rosewood Hospital.
Upon arriving, Hanna jumped out the car before Spencer even got the car to fully stop. She rushed into the emergency doors and ran to the reception desk.
"I'm looking for Emily Fields?" Hanna rushed. The lady typed for a few seconds before she looked back at Hanna.
"Found her, Emily Fields. What is your direct relationship to Ms. Fields?"
"I'm her girlfriend." Hanna rushed back.
"Okay, she is being observed right now, but please take a seat in our waiting room." Spencer and Aria ran in at that time.
"Where is she?" Aria was the first to ask.
"They are checking her out right now. We have to wait." Hanna said anxiously.
"Okay, that means she's still alive." Spencer tried to lighten the mood. But Hanna glared at her and stormed to the waiting room.
There were only a few people there, but they all seemed to be calm. Not one seemed to be worried or scared, or even sad. They all seemed to be content that they were sitting in a hospital emergency room waiting area. How the hell did they manage that?
"Okay Hanna, just sit down. I'm sure the doctor will be here momentarily to tell you that Emily just fine." Aria smiled hopefully as she placed a hand on Hanna's hand. In reality, she was just as scared as Hanna was, but she had to be strong for her other best friend.
Spencer was almost unreadable. Her face was blank, but her heart was pounding and she felt like she couldn't breathe. Could the woman she loved really die before she had the chance to tell her the way she REALLY felt?
Just then, a frazzled Wayne Fields walked in. "Oh thank goodness you're here girls. What happened? Where is she?" Wayne rushed just as Hanna had before.
"We know just as much as you do." Aria replied.
"What happened?"
"We don't know. We were just standing in the hallway and Mona told us she fell on the ground clutching her stomach." Aria answered. It was like Spencer and Hanna were mute.
Wayne looked over at his daughter's girlfriend. "Hanna, how are you?" Wayne asked sitting down next to the sobbing blonde.
"I don't know. I need to know what's going on." Hanna sobbed. Wayne sighed deeply and felt his eyes fill with tears.
The time that passed seemed endless. They were anxiously awaiting the news, and they felt like it would never come. Hanna continued to cry, Wayne rubbed Hanna's back as he silently sat in thought, Aria fidgeted, and Spence sat completely still.
"I heard, what's going on?" Ashley rushed in the waiting room as well.
"We don't know. She's still being observed."
"What happened?"
"Mona said she fell on the ground clutching her stomach. It could be anything." Wayne sighed. Ashley sighed heavily and made her way over to her sobbing daughter as well. She quickly sat down and pulled Hanna into a tight hug.
"She's going to be okay." Ashley whispered.
"Emily Fields?" Wren called out into the room. The five women stood and rushed over to the doctor.
"Yes? I'm her father." Wayne stood in the lead of everyone else.
"Hello, I'm Doctor Kingston. Don't worry, Emily is fine." All the women let out a sigh of relief. "Your daughter seems to have accumulated a stomach ulcer."
"Wh-how?" Wayne asked.
"There are many things that can cause stomach ulcers. Spicy foods, overworking yourself, stress, and much more. Has Emily been under a substantial amount of stress lately?"
Hanna looked up. "Yeah, she's been working really hard trying to get a scholarship. She's been complaining of pain a lot."
"How long?" Wren asked.
"Maybe a week?" Hanna said, unsure.
"That's plenty of time for the ulcer to develop. We're going to have to keep her over night for some tests, but the ulcer should go away on its own. She's also going to have to stop her workouts for a while and be in a stress-free environment. One complication and she will be right back here." Wren told them.
"Should we keep her from school?" Ashley asked.
"For the first couple days." Wren nodded.
"Can we see her?" Hanna asked hopefully.
"Yes. She's in room 514. All the way down the hall, to the left." Wren pointed.
"Is she awake?" Aria asked.
"Yeah, she's awake and alert. She's been asking for you guys." Wren smiled.
"Thank you Dr. Kingston." Wayne said, sincerely.
"It's nothing, really. I'm just doing my job." Wren smiled before walking away.
"Hanna, would you like to see her first?" Wayne asked.
"What? No, she's your daughter. You should be able to see her." Hanna told him even though her mind and her heart was telling her that she had to see Emily now.
"Dr. Kingston just told me that she was fine. I know you're dying to see her, so you go on ahead and we'll be in there in a few minutes." Wayne smiled.
Hanna pulled him into a hug. "Thank you."
"No problem kid." Wayne hugged Hanna back. Hanna pulled away and made her way down the hall towards Emily's room.
As soon as she spotted the room that Emily was in, she barged in, eyes frantically searching for her lover. When she saw Emily on the bed looking tired, scared, and in pain her heart broke.
Hanna ran to the bed and flung her arms around Emily, pulling her close to her in a tight hug. "Thank God!" She cried.
"Hanna, are you okay?" Emily asked.
"Okay? My girlfriend was just rushed to the hospital and Mona Vanderwall told me of all people. I mean, yeah she's my best friend, but that's not something I want to hear from her." Hanna had fresh tears running down her face and she placed small kisses on Emily's forehead, neck, and cheeks.
"I'm sorry." Emily looked ashamed.
"Don't be. I'm just glad that you're okay." Hanna sighed in relief as she closed her eyes and tried to calm her, still racing, heart.
"Me too. I've never felt pain like that. I thought I was dying." Emily sighed as well.
"Well, you didn't and that's the important part. And if you EVER scare me like this again, I will kill you. Understood?"
Emily chuckled. "Understood." She replied and sealed it with a kiss.
