Double Obsession-Ch 10

Savannah came to first and grabbed her head and said, "owwwwww, what happened"?, she looked over beside her in the seat and saw an unconscious Derek. She patted his cheek and said, "Derek, are you alright, Derek can you hear me" but she got no response and as she started trying to get out of the car she started to panic because they were trapped in the truck.

She shook the door and said, "helppppppppp, somebody helppppppppppp" and as she leaned back over to check for a pulse on Derek she blew out a deep breath as she heard sirens in the distance. She said, "hang on Derek, help is coming, help is coming", she then put her hand in Dereks and said, "please be alright, please".

Sam walked back downstairs and headed toward the dining room and when he got there he saw Amanda in her seat already eating. Penelope said, "I hope it's alright, she was hungry"?, he said, "of course, it's fine, it's fine" as he sat down at the table and looked at the food that Penelope had fixed.

They sat and talked while they ate their dinner and Sam talked to her about his day, she listened as he told her about what kind of work he did. She said, "that sounds like interesting work", he nodded his head and said, "ohhhh it is, I love my work, I love being able to draw something and then work with others to bring my drawing to life, well so to speak" causing them both to laugh.

Savannah climbed into the back of the ambulance with Derek and held his hand while the medic quickly checked him out. She looked up and said, "is he alright"?, the medic said, "he's in bad shape, it looks like he could have a concussion and maybe a dislocated shoulder and his knee might be broken, we'll just have to wait and see" as they raced toward the hospital.

After dinner Sam, Penelope and Amanda sat in the backyard and enjoyed the beautiful weather, Sam said, "you're really good with her". Penelope said, "she's such a sweet baby, she reminds me so much of Hank and Olivia", he said, "I'm sorry that you're missing your babies so much", she said, "well it's only 2 weeks so hopefully the time will fly by and then I can be back home with my husband and babies".

Sam nodded his head and said, "and I can have my Vannah back", Penelope smiled and glanced down at the now sleeping child in her arms and said, "I'm going to lay her down, she's had a long day". Sam said, "since I've been away from her all day, can I put her down"?, she said, "sure Sam" and handed the little girl over to him.

He kissed his daughter on the forehead and said, "daddy loves you" as he headed back inside the house, Penelope said, "I'll be in soon, I want to enjoy this weather a little more". Sam nodded his head and said, "stay as long as you want Penelope" and then stepped inside and up the stairs toward the nursery.

Derek and Savannah were taken to the closest hospital and currently Derek was having testing done, Savannah had been able to avoid major injury. She had cuts, bruises and a sprained wrist, she sighed as she sat in Dereks cubicle waiting on them to bring him back.

She looked up when he was wheeled back into the room, she quickly said, "how is he"?, the nurse said, "the doctor will be right in with his results". She nodded her head as she moved to his bedside and took his hand in hers, it wasn't only a matter of a few minutes before his eyes started fluttering open, at first everything was blurry but when the view became clear he weakly smiled when he saw Savannah sitting beside him.

He squeezed her hand and said, "where am I, what happened"?, she said, "ohhhh thank goodness you're alright, you're in the hospital, we were in a car accident". He said, "w w who are you"?, she glanced down at the wedding bands on both of their hands and said, "I'm your wife Savannah, Savannah Morgan" she then leaned down and kissed his lips gently and said, "I love you Derek and I'm so glad that you're alright".

He smiled up at her and said, "w w wife, you're my wife"?, she held up her hand and said, "yeah for almost 7 years now, we have a 6 year old son named Hank and a 4 year old daughter named Olivia and a baby almost a year old named Amanda", he sighed as he gently squeezed her hand and before he could say anything else the doctor walked into the room and said, "I have the results of your tests".
