Panic Room-Ch 8
Jack and Henry were keeping the twins occupied when they heard the lever being pulled, Jack and Henry put the twins behind them and then they smiled when they saw Fran and Dave standing there when the door opened. Mia and Matthew ran over to Fran and Dave and wrapped their little arms around their legs, Fran picked Mia up and kissed her cheek while Dave did the same to Matthew.
Jack said, "where's dad"?, Dave said, "your dads are gone to the hospital with your moms", Henry said, "a a are they alright"?, Dave said, "why don't you two come out here with us and your nana and I will tell you what we can". The two boys looked at each other before following Fran and Dave out into Derek and Penelopes bedroom.
Hotch looked down at Emily and said, "don't you dare give up on me Em, do you hear me"?, she nodded her head yes as she gasped for air, Hotch watched as the medic put the oxygen mask over her face. He squeezed her hand and said, "I love you", she winked at him as she squeezed his hand, the medic looked up at the heart monitor and said, "we should be at the hospital in about 4 to 5 minutes".
Reid looked down at his very pale wife and brought her hand up to his lips and said, "I'm so sorry Jayje, I'm so sorry that I left you today", she squeezed his hand and said, "it isn't your f f fault". He said, "save your strength", she nodded her head yes as she closed her eyes again, Reid looked at the machines and knew that JJ wasn't doing good, not doing good at all".
Derek took a deep breath as he looked down at the knife that was sticking out of Penelopes chest, he was internally kicking himself for leaving that house, if he'd only stayed then this wouldn't have happened and then his baby girl, JJ and Emily wouldn't be fighting for their lives. He leaned down and whispered, "I love you so much baby and I need you to hang on for me and the twins".
Dave looked at the kids and said, "JJ was stabbed in the side and I'm not going to lie to you Henry it was bad but just as soon as your dad finds out anything he will let us know". He looked up at Dave and said, "is my mommy gonna die"?, Dave ran his hand over the little boys head and said, "your momma is a fighter buddy and she is going to do everything that she can to make sure that she is here for you and your daddy".
Fran looked at Jack and said, "your momma was shot", his eyes got big and he said, "sh shot, where"?, Fran said, "in the stomach and chest area and she was awake and trying to talk to your dad when they left in the ambulance". He looked up at Fran and said, "she isn't gonna die is she nana Fran"?, she kissed the little boy on the top of the head and said, "she's going to be fine honey", Jack laid his head against her side as the tears streamed down his face.
Matthew looked up at Dave and said, "what about momma"?, he said, "your momma has a big owwie to her chest", Mia looked over and said, "she isn't gonna weave us is she"?, Dave shook his head and said, "no sweetie, your momma loves you both and your daddy and she is going to fight with everything she has so that she can be with you", the twins then buried their heads in their grandparents chests and started crying.
Emily was the first one wheeled into the ER and put straight into Trauma 1, Hotch watched from inside the room as several doctors and nurses worked to save his wife. He would look at Emily and then the machines that she was hooked up to, he listned as bloodwork, X-rays and a CT scan of the abdomen was ordered before he was escorted out of the room.
Reid practially ran to keep up with the gurney that was carrying his wife, he was stopped outside the door as the doctors started working to stablize JJ so that they could get her to surgery. Reid watched as she was quickly hooked up to several machines, he took a deep breath and said, "please be alright Jayje, we can't lose you, we can't lose you".
Derek was walking beside Penelope holding her hand as they ran into the ER, he said, "I'm here sweetness, I'm here", several doctors and nurses ran into the exam room as they started working on her. Derek stepped back and watched as the doctor examined the placement of the knife, she looked up and said, "we need to get her to the OR STAT".
Derek said, "can I please tell her I love her before you take her"?, the doctor nodded her head yes and watched as Derek leaned over and said, "I love you baby girl and I need you to fight harder than you have ever fought before". He kissed her lips gently and said, "we'll be right here waiting for you", the doctor then stepped forward and said, "we need to go".
Derek stepped back and watched as his baby girl disappeared through a set of double doors at the end of the hall
