Chpater 8 - Is He Ok?

Nevaeh's P.O.V.

I hit the gas and came screeching into the driveway. I

jumped out the car and ran up to the porch. Thw whole team

was standing there, except for Leon, Mia was crying, so I knew

it wasn't good.

" What's wrong?" I screamed.
" Calm down Killer!" Dom said

" No, I won't calm down, now what happened?" I screamed

" Killer, Leon was in a accident tonight" Vince told me, I looked

at him.

" How bad...how bad?"

" They don't know, he's alive at the hospital near the south end"

That was all I needed to hear, I took off running, jumped in my

car and peeled off. I was definately speeding the whole way

there, I parked in a handicapped spot and ran into the hospital.

I reached the nurses station and preety much screamed at her.
" What room is Leon James in?"

" Ma'am calm down, let me look"

She checked the computer.

" He's in surgery right now, you can wait here and I'll let you know

when I hear anything"

I just nodded my head and took a seat. I sat there for 10 minutes

with my mind completely numb. Once my mind started coming back

to me, all I could think was that this was all my fault. If I would of never

took off tonight, then he would be ok. I didn't notice the team and the

officer walk in until Mia tapped me on the shoulder. I jumped a little

before I turned around and hugged Mia.

" Excuse me, I know this isn't the best time, but I have to give you

a couple of tickets" the officer said.

" You have got to be kidding me" Isaid.

" Unfortunately no I'm not, when you left your house I clocked you

at doing 60 before you even hit the corner, and I know you went

faster, plus you were in a residental area. But due to the situation

I'm willing to leave it at 60, plus your parked in a handicapped spot"

" Oh your just so kind, you should get an award, look if your gonna

give me a couple of damn tickets, than just give them to me and

leave me alone" I was yelling at the officer by now.

" Killer, calm yourself down" Vince said

" Yeah, Nev, it's not gonna do you any good getting yourself all

worked up" Mia said.

" Can you blame her, one of our best friends is in there, we don't

know if he is gonna live or die, and this asshole is standing here

giving her tickets" Letty yelled. Dom gave her that look that told her

to shut her mouth. She did and moved over so she was standing

next to me.

" Thank You" I whispered to her as I put my head on her shoulder.

" Don't mention it" she said as she put her arm around my shoulders

and lead me to a chair on the other side of the room. With my head

still on her shoulder I said " This is all my fault"

" Hey don't you think that"

" Well it is, if I never would of left tonight, he would of never had to

go out"

" This is not your fault" she kept repeating in my ear, over and over

again, hoping I would believe her

2 Hours Later

Everyone else had either fallin asleep of went to get coffee, but

I just couldn't do either. I just sat there starring at the floor. I heard a

door open but I just figured it was Vince and Dom coming back with

the coffee, but it ws the doctor.

" Excuse me, are you here for Leon James?"

" Yes, is he ok?"

" He will be fine, he's got a nice bump on his head, a couple broken

ribs. We had to take him into surgery to repair his broken and arm and

some torn muscles and tendions. If you ask me he is a pretty lucky

guy. He can have visitors, but only two at a time"

" Ok- thank you doc" Letty said. I didn't realize the rest of the team

were there and actually awake.

" Nev, I think you should go back" Dom said

" No, thats ok, I'd rather not, I'm gonna head home and get a few hours

of sleep, I got some deliveries I got to be there for." before anybody

could say anything I was up and out the door. When I got home I

took a quick shower and climbed into bed and cried myself to sleep.

At The Hospital

Leon's P.O.V.

I had seen everyone except Letty and Killer. Dom and Mia had

just left the room and I was waiting for Nev to come in, but she didn't

only Letty.

" Hey there speedy, bet you've had better days" she said with a smile.

" Yeah, I can think of a few, where's Nev, I figured she'd come in with

you?"

" She's not here" she said as she looked at the floor.

" She didn't want to see me?"

" She feels guilty for you being in here, she says it's all her fault" she

looked up at me.

" That's ludacris"

" I told her it wasn't at least a hundred times, but she said if she didn't

take off tonight, you would of never been out"

" Shit"

Letty was smiling at me and I couldn't figure out why.

" What?"

" Oh nothing, I just happen to know that you look at her different"

" Your crazy"

" Am I, Vince saw it too. Is it possible that she has tamed your

wild ass and she don't even know it?"

" Yeah Let, she has"

" Ahh, I knew it"

Letty and me tlaked for a little while, till I told her to go home and

get some rest. I also asked her to try and get my Killer up here

to see me, she said she would try. Hopefully she can. I fell

asleep sometime around 5 in the morning.
