Here's the next chapter... I think I'm on a mean streak at the moment with Cliffy's lol. This story wont be too much longer, around twenty chapters I reckon... Enjoy!
Angela POV
I knew that truck was going to hit her, I knew it the second they entered that intersection. Yet, I couldn't do anything. I felt my feet moving but everything felt like it was going so slow. Then the flames. Oh those flames would be etched into my mind, that nearby car had been so close to Brennan's. The truck had hit two other cars as well as Brennan's. All I could think about was getting her out. I ran towards her car and thankfully one door was slightly open.
I heard coughing. That had to be her? Right? She has to be fine. I recognised someone behind me trying to drag me back, and then I saw a young man. Hoodie that covered his head and streaks of Brown hair covering his eyes. A tattoo seeping down past his short shirt. I let myself be dragged back and I watched as this unknown man pulled Brennan out of the car.
She fell limp in his arms and I covered my mouth with my hands in shock. Everything had to be okay. She couldn't be gone.
People started to crowd around and paramedics finally made it to her and lifted her straight into the ambulance, rattling off many medical terms in the process. I tried to find my voice and thank the young man, who had clearly saved Brennan's life in some way, but I couldn't see him anywhere, he had vanished. I shrugged and couldn't believe what I was seeing. It was a complete mess.
As well as the three cars and the truck, many others had been around and had somehow got into the crash. I looked to the truck and saw the driver. He seemed to be completely dazed, police surrounding him. Everything was a complete mess. I needed to get to the hospital. I nodded to myself and tried to think positively. At least she had gotten out of the car.
I ran in the opposite direction and was so focused on getting to the hospital that I didn't even turn around when I heard another loud bang, which must have been Brennan's car.
When I arrived at the hospital, I realised I had no idea where I was going. I found a nurse and got her attention asking if she knew where Brennan was.
"Are you a family member of Dr Brennan?"
"I'm her best friend, she doesn't have any family."
The nurse seemed to consider this for a moment.
"No husband?"
"She has a... uh..." I thought to myself, was Booth really Brennan's boyfriend? I didn't know if they were like that. I couldn't dare imagine Brennan calling Booth her boyfriend.
"...he isn't here" I finsihed, deciding not to even try to give him a name.
The nurse seemed to nod in understanding and gave me directions to the waiting room.
"I need to see her."
"I'm sorry miss..."
"Montenegro..." I finished.
She smiled slightly "You can see your friend very soon, please make your way to the waiting room. I will come and get you."
I sighed and made my way to the waiting room. She'd be alright. She'd be alright.
It wasn't until another five hours later that a doctor finally came and told me about Brennan's condition. I had had nurses come and tell me she was doing fine every now and then, trying to be comforting. It wasn't working anymore. I stood abruptly, causing Hodgins, who had arrived a few hours ago after I had called him, to jump in surprise.
A Dr Sampson stood in front of me and rattled off medical jargon. Brennan would be proud. I raised an eyebrow and he stopped talking. He thought for a moment and then continued in 'human talk' as I like to say.
"Dr Brennan has broken three ribs, and has broken her right ankle and left leg. She has some bleeding in her abdomen which we were able to fix. Her sternum was fractued which means she needed to have another surgery to repair it. Also, she has a pretty bad concussion but the MRI came out clear."
I just stared at him, trying to figure out how much of this was good and what was bad. He seemed to not be able to keep still. Moving from one foot to another and I knew he was missing something.
"And? Dr Sampson what is wrong with my friend?"
He looked me in the eye and gave me a sad smile.
"The anaesthesia should have worn off by now and Dr Brennan should have woken up. Unfortunately that is not that case. We will be monitoring her closely for the next few hours. It is possible that she..."
"Won't wake up?" I supplied when he had stopped mid-sentence. He nodded in confirmation and sent me his well wishes before heading down the corridor.
"She'll wake up" I heard Hodgins say.
I sat back down and took a long, deep, shuddering breath. I turned in Hodgins embrace and put my head on his shoulder.
"How much does she have to go through?" I mumbled before letting some tears fall.
You have to wonder why hospitals get such uncomfortable seats. You'd think that waiting for a loved one who could die was enough pain to go through but instead they made you sit on chairs that were so uncomfortable that you had to get up and walk around for a while every single hour.
I had been sitting in Brennan's room for over 5 hours now. She still hasn't woken up. So many thoughts were going through my head. What was going to happen if she didn't make it? Booth would come back and then she wouldn't be there. If she did die he wouldn't be able to attend the funeral.
I shook my head trying to rid myself of the thoughts of her dying.
"Stay positive, Stay positive." I whispered to myself in a quite chant, hoping that everything would be alright.
"Miss Montenegro?" I looked up to the door and saw a young police officer, couldn't even be 25.
"Yes?" I said back, looking back to Brennan and motioning for him to go outside. I followed him out, smiling slighty at Hodgins in the corner asleep. It was only five in the morning, way too early for a police officer to be here.
"What can I do for you Officer? A bit early isn't it?" He seemed to agree, and sat down on the nearest chair. I lowered myself into a chair as well and waited for him to say something.
"I'm Constable Davis, and unfortunately I have some bad news, that couldn't wait until the morning"
I sat upright at this, wondering what in the world could make this say any worse.
"What's happened?"
"I was told to go and see Dr Brennan, and then found out that she was in here, so I'm telling you instead. I should hope you will pass on the message when she wakes up" I agreed quickly
"Has something happened?"
"I have some news regarding a Parker Booth?"
I gasped, I wasn't expecting anything regarding him. I knew the little boy was heartbroken by the absence of his father from Brennan, when she had talked to me. I sat there, trying to figure out why this would have anything to do with Brennan. Shouldn't they be contacting Rebecca?
"Is he alright?"
The officer quickly shook his head.
"There was an accident across town, there were no survivors"
Mwahaha... Another cliffy... Don't kill me! Review :)
