Chapter 10
The gang is back at Amanda's aunt's house and she makes Amanda some ginger tea to drink. Kim sits down on the couch with Amanda and they cuddle with each other. She wonders how to tell Amanda that she knows who took Jesse.
"I know who took her. I know who took Jesse." Kim says.
"Who?" Amanda asks.
"Patton took her from the park when we were running from her." Kim replies.
Amanda realizes that Patton took Jesse and she asks Kim to find Jesse for her. Kim walks up to her father and she asks him to take her to find Jesse. Tony and his youngest daughter leave the house and they get into the car. As they drive in the car, they wonder where Jesse is. A few minutes later, they arrive at Patton's house and they walk up to the front door. They walk into the house and Kim goes upstairs and she hears Jesse crying. She sees Patton trying to hurt Jesse and she enters the bedroom and she grabs a beer bottle and she breaks the beer bottle on Patton's head.
"You son of a bitch! You took her!" Kim yells.
Kim kicks Patton and she grabs Jesse and she carries her. Patton gets up from the floor and he finds antidepressants and Kim gets ready to take Jesse downstairs so that Tony can take them back to Janice's house. Kim carries Jesse down the stairs and Patton follows with the antidepressants. He sees Tony sitting in a chair in the kitchen and he figures out what to do.
"Oh, my God. Where's my granddaughter, Patton?" Tony asks.
"Relax and have a drink, Mr. Rollins." Patton tells Tony.
Patton grabs a glass and he pours juice in the cup and he puts the antidepressants in the drink and he mixes it. He gives the drink to Tony and he drinks it without knowing that Patton put antidepressants in the juice. He drinks the juice and he gets up from the chair and as he starts walking, he feels lightheaded and he passes out. Kim finds her father passed out and she calls 911. A few minutes later, the ambulance arrives and paramedics enter the house while Patton runs away and Tony is on a stretcher and then he goes inside in the ambulance and Kim goes in. Minutes later, Amanda, her friends and her family arrive at the hospital to be with Tony. Amanda finds Kim with Jesse and she hands her to Amanda.
"Kim, you found my baby. Where's Daddy?" Amanda asks.
"In a hospital room. I found him passed out and I called 911." Kim replies.
Soon, the doctor arrives in the waiting room and he tells him that Tony is stable but unconscious. The doctor knows Amanda for many years ago, when she was a rape victim. He approaches Amanda and he's very happy to see her.
"Amanda, long time no see." Dr. Scott Parish says.
"How's my father?" Amanda asks.
"Your father is stable but unconscious. He'll be at the hospital for three days. We'll take good care of him." Scott replies.
The doctor goes into Tony's hospital room to check on him. He tells the nurse named Callie Anderson that Amanda is here so that she can be with her father. They check on Tony as he sleeps and then they go see Amanda in the waiting room.
"Hello, Amanda. Remember me?" Callie asks.
"Yes, hi." Amanda replies.
Scott and Callie sit down with Amanda in the waiting room. Amanda looks at her engagement ring and she wonders when to tell the doctor and the nurse her news. They ask her how she has been and she tells him that she has a daughter and that she has good news and she shows them her engagement ring.
"I'm engaged." Amanda says.
"Congratulations." Scott and Callie tell Amanda.
"Thank you." Amanda replies.
Declan comes into the waiting room with 2 cups for water for him and Amanda. He sits next to Amanda and he kisses her cheek. He wonders who Amanda's talking to. She gets ready to introduce the doctor, the nurse and Declan to one another.
"This is my fiancé, Lt. Declan Murphy." Amanda tells Scott and Callie.
"So, nice to meet you." Scott and Callie tell Declan.
"Nice to meet you, too." Declan replies to Scott and Callie.
Amanda asks them if they're coming to the wedding and they tell her that they are. Scott says that he has a navy-blue suit ready for the big day. Amanda tells them about the wedding and that her wedding colors are navy blue and raspberry color.
"Last time I saw you, you were recovering from your rape, and now you're getting married." Scott tells Amanda.
"When I first met you, you were a victim of rape, and now you're getting married." Callie tells Amanda.
Callie apologizes for missing Amanda's bridal shower and Amanda says that she hopes that she can come to her bachelorette party. Callie has a bridal shower gift for Amanda and she gives her the gift and the card. Amanda opens the gift and it's a travel coffee mug.
"Thank you." Amanda says.
"You're welcome." Callie replies.
Soon, Amanda, her family and friends go back to her aunt's house and she and Kim sit on the couch watching old home videos of them with their father. As they watch, they remember the good times that they shared together. Hours later, they fall asleep together on the couch and they sleep there all night long cuddling with one another.
