"Brunette Residence"
"Is this Patricia Brunette?"
"It is. Can I help you?"
"Mrs. Brunette my name is Steven Callaway. I'm with the California State Police. About 30 minutes ago I was called to the scene of an automobile accident off of highway 75."
"Are you saying..." Trish trailed off.
"Ma'am one of the vehicles contained your two sons Harmon Rabb Jr. and Tucker Henry III."
"oh my God! Are they..."
"They've been take to St. Mary's. Ma'am if you'd like I can be there to pick you up."
"No thank you Mr. Callaway. I can drive myself and I'll be there faster. Thank you."
Trish hung up the phone, grabbed her keys and called upstairs.
"Ice, Mac, Harm and Tuck have been in an accident. I'm heading to the hospital. If you want to come, get downstairs."
The footsteps of two women could be heard running down the stairs and in less than five minutes the three women were on their way to St. Mary's Hospital.
St. Mary's Hospital
San Diego, California
"I'm looking for information on Harmon Rabb Jr. and Tucker Henry III. They were brought in from a car crash." Trish went up to the information desk in the ER while Mac and Ice stood off to the side waiting for information.
"So how long have you and Spoon been engaged?" Mac asked the younger woman.
"About three days." Ice laughed. "It was all because a storm that were together." At Mac's puzzled look she continued. "We first kissed while it was storming and when Spoon proposed it was right after he was caught in a storm while flying his hornet off a carrier. What about you and Harm?"
"What about us? Harm's my best friend."
"I thought that was all between Spoon and I too."
"I'm engaged to another man."
"Do you love him? I've seen the way you look and act around Harm. Are you sure you don't love Harm?"
At just that moment Trish came over to them with information on Harm and Spoon.
"Spoon's in the examine room 3. Harm was taken up to the OR when they brought him in."
"How are they?" Ice asked.
"All Spoon has is a broken wrist and a slight concussion. Harm on the other hand is worse. The nurse at the desk told me he was brought in with a his left arm broke and his left leg broke. On top of that there's damage to his internal organs. They've taken him up to surgery to try and get a better grasp on the damage." Trish said before she broke down and cried.
Mac wrapped the older woman in her arms and let her cry on her shoulder.
"Can we see Spoon?" Ice asked.
"The nurse said we could. He's awake and just waiting for them to put his arm in a cast." The ladies started walking toward the examine room when a voice stopped them.
"Mrs. Brunette. I'm officer Callaway."
Trish turned around.
"Officer. Thank you for informing me of the accident, but if you don't mind I really would like to see the only son I'm allowed to see."
"Yes, ma'am. If you would like to know what happened here's my card you can reach me at the station."
"Thank you Officer Callaway." Trish turned and her and Ice made their way to Spoon.
"Officer Callaway if you don't mind I'd like to know what happened." Mac asked once they were gone.
"Are you family?"
"Not exactly. Harmon Rabb is my partner at work and my best friend. I was out here visiting his family with him."
"Close enough to family. You won't believe what some reporters out here will do to get all the details on a story."
"No more than DC I suspect." Mac smiled.
"No ma'am. Apparently Mr. Rabb and Mr. Henry were west bound on highway 75 when a tractor trailer ran the red light and slammed into the drivers side of Mr. Rabb's and Mr. Henry's car. The car then spun into on coming traffic where it was hit again in the driver's side. It rolled and landed on it's top on the side of an embankment. An eye witness claimed that on the second impact the car would have been struck on the passenger's side, but somehow Mr. Rabb turned the car so the driver's side would be hit instead. I was wondering if you knew about their conditions."
"Spoon, Mr. Henry has a broken arm and a concussion. They're keeping him over night for observation. Mr. Rabb has a broken arm and leg, along with internal organ damage. He's in surgery right now. They're trying to see all the damage." Mac let a small sob escape.
"Ma'am I can tell you right now that if Mr. Rabb has made it this far, he's a survivor. He'll pull through." The officer winked at Mac then walked out the doors.
Mac turned away and went to join the people who in last day and a half had become her family.
