Chapter 38
Courtney's POV
My feet were frozen to the ground. My heart was beating 100 miles per minute, and I was just waiting to see if Donna was going to stand up.
I finally seen her head raise and she stood up very slowly. She held her hand out and it was covered in blood. I almost screamed and ran over to her. "Donna! Are you okay?"
She nodded and swallowed real hard. "Y-Yeah.. it's h-his blood." She paused and looked at me. "Courtney! I killed him, We got go hide!"
I looked at her like she was insane. "No! Let's just go to Randy and John!" She shook her head. "Courtney! I KILLED him! I'm going to jail!" I almost wanted to laugh. "No you're not!"
We heard the door about to open and she grabbed my hand. We ran out the back door and she took me to this garbage can, or whatever it was, and we hid behind it. I looked at her and she was still scared to death.
John's POV
Randy and I were just standing there waiting for one of the cops to tell us which one of our daughters got shot. Randy looked like he was going to die and I think I looked like that too.
Finally a cop came out and walked over to us. "Alright guys, Shane was shot and we can't find the girls." My eyes widened. "Is he dead?" The cop nodded. "Afraid so."
I looked at Randy and he had the same look in his eye. We both went darting into the house, luckily this time The cop didn't stop us. We watched one of the EMT's take Shane out in a body bag.
Randy looked at me. "Wherever they are, I hope they didn't see that." I agreed with him on that and we kept looking. We checked every room and we still couldn't find them.
I went over to the back door and looked out the window. I seen two heads behind a garbage can. "Randy!" I yelled out to him and he jogged over. "Yeah?" I smiled. "They're out here."
We walked outside and Randy stood in front of the garbage can. "Courtney!" Her head popped up and I noticed the bruise on her cheek. "Daddy!" She flew around the can and jumped in his arms.
He held her tight and I looked back over at Donna who was trying sink lower behind the can. I walked behind it. "Donna..?"
She shook her head. "I'm in big trouble.." I put my hand on her shoulder. "Honey, it wasn't your fault. We didn't know Shane was in the house."
She looked up at me with tears streaming down her face. "I k-killed him." I froze and she sniffled. "Courtney started crying, and he yelled at her and I yelled at him, then he hit her and I flipped out. I tackled him to the ground and he had the gun up to my stomach but I some how made it towards him and I pulled the trigger." She started sobbing.
I pulled her close to my chest. She sniffled. "I pulled the trigger, Daddy. I'm going to jail." I rocked her back and fourth. "Shh.. you're not going to Jail; I'll make sure of it."
Later
Courtney's POV
I was looking at the paint on the walls. Hospitals are so pale and blank. I don't see why I have to stay over night. Randy said it's because they want to make sure we don't go into shock. It sucks that I'm not even in the same room as Donna. She's across the hall. Randy and John were in the waiting room talking to the police, So I was just sitting on the bed patiently; bored out of my mind.
I seen the curtain move. "Mini Miz!" Mike walked over to me and I lit up like a christmas tree. "MIKE!" He pulled me into a hug. "I'm so glad you're okay." I smiled against his chest. "Me too."
He let go. "When I heard you were missing, I flipped. I was afraid I was never going to see you again." Tears were filling up in my eyes but I didn't let them fall. "I was so scared." Mike pulled me in another hug. "It's okay; you're alright now."
I pouted. "I wish I could be in the same room as Donna." He smirked. "Come on then." I looked at him and crossed my arms. "They said I'm not allowed to walk."
Mike laughed. "What? That's ridiculous." I chuckled. "I know, they said I might go into to shock, so I can't go see Donna." Mike smiled. "Yeah you can."
I was about to ask him how but he scooped me up in his arms and headed out.
Donna's POV
John told me I wasn't going to jail so I was feeling a little better, except I didn't have anyone in the room with me. It's stupid that I can't have Courtney in my room with me. I seen the curtain move and Mike walked in with Courtney in his arms.
He set her on the bed and I smiled up at him. "Monkey Boy, you actually did something good for once." He rolled his eyes and Courtney crossed her legs.
I was about to say something but I was cut off by someone. "DONNA!" I recognized the voice but couldn't pin point it until I seen Cody walk around the curtain. I didn't care if I wasn't suppose to walk, I stood up on the bed and jumped into his arms.
He held me really tight. "Cody... can't... b-breathe." He laughed and sat me down. "Sorry, Bud." I shrugged. "It's okay. It feels so good to see you. I seriously thought I would never see anyone ever again." Courtney agreed with me.
Mike patted Courtney's shoulder. "Well you don't have to worry about that now. You guys are fine."
"WHERE'S COURTNEY?" We heard from across the hall and I started laughing, everyone else joined in. Cody yelled out. "In here, Randy!" Randy ran in and hugged Courtney. "You weren't suppose to walk."
Courtney smirked. "I didn't; Mike carried me here." He rolled his eyes and John walked back in. "Well everything's okay now. Donna you aren't getting in trouble what so ever; it was self defense." I sighed in relief while Courtney looked up at Randy. "So we can leave?"
John shook his head. "No you guys can leave in the morning." Courtney and I both groaned. I hated hospitals. Everyone was chatting and I had to tell them something. "HEY!"
They all looked at me worriedly. I looked at them all seriously. "I'm hungry!" They laughed and rolled their eyes but Courtney nodded. "Me too!" Cody looked at me. "Taco bell?" My eyes lit up and I looked at John. "PLEASE?"
He looked at Randy who nodded. "I guess, but Cody you can go get it." Cody scoffed. "Fine.. What does everyone want?" We all started shouting things out and he finally just started writing it down. It made Mike go with him.
They left and Courtney went and crawled into Randy's lap. I looked at John. "Will you lay on the bed with me?" He nodded. "I guess." I scooted over and he laid next to me.
A little while past and the guys got back with the taco's. They gave everyone their taco's and I bit into one of mine. I spit it out. "Cody! I said no tomatoes." He frowned. "Sorry, Donna."
"Where's Kane, when ya need him?" I mumbled to myself and John laughed. We all finished eating and I looked at everyone.
I was truly happy right now. Yeah we almost died, but for some reason I felt safe. I felt like nothing bad could ever happen again, and I was loving that feeling.
