7. Boston Hospital
Authors Note: Oh my gosh there is serious cheesy fluff in this chapter. You have been warned.
hgill: Sorry I freaked you out ^^. That scene with Emily almost made me cry! Whoever plays her (it's weird that Amber Tamblyn use to) is a great actress. And Nikolas cannot be dead or I'll stop watching the show.
AL: Grukeage does have something to do with Grace and Luke. First two letters of her name and the last three of his make Gruke and I add 'age' to a lot of words.. Bad habit.. Anyway, thanks for all the reviews
7:14pm
Adam touched the gauze on his head and winced in pain. He took another drink of the water that everyone had been shoving at himself and the other teenagers since they had been airlifted away. There was a ding by an elevator door and Iris stepped into the area where Adam was. Her right arm was wrapped in gauze and she was still covered in the ashes and dried blood. None of the teenagers looked very attractive at that moment. Iris touched his arm.
"It's alright," she told him. He didn't respond, he just stood there, looking at a door that lead into the ICU. Luke entered the room holding his own bottle of water.
"Anything?" he asked Adam.
"We made the news," Adam said, pointing to the TV crew that had arrived at the hospital.
"Great. That's just.. Great. People died and they don't even care. It's just another big story for them," Luke said. The ICU door opened and a doctor stepped out. He looked at Adam and Luke.
"You can go in," he told them.
*
"Hey," Luke said, sitting down in a chair next to Grace's bed.
"Why aren't you with your sister?" she asked, her voice raspy and breathing shallow but steady.
"Adam's with her. He.. he wanted some time.." Grace looked up at him, with worry in her eyes.
"How is she?" she asked him.
"She's still unconcious. Doctor says it's a miracle that you two surived at all."
"It's not that easy to kill me off," Grace joked. Then, getting serious again she said, "I hope Joan's gonna be okay."
*
"Jane.." Adam said, taking Joan's hand. "Jane, I don't know if you can hear me, but you've got to wake up. Come on Jane, just open your eyes. This shouldn't have happened, you should have been on the chopper, not me. I shouldn't have let you guy talk me into going. Jane, please, open your eyes. There are people that love you, that need you to wake up. I love you.. Joan." The door opened and a doctor walked in.
"We're going to have to ask you to leave for a moment, Mr. Rove," the doctor said.
"Is she.. Is she going to be alright?" he asked the doctor.
"Trust me, Mr. Rove, Joan will be fine," he said. Adam gave him an odd look for a moment, then nodded and left.
"Joan?" the doctor asked. "Joan, time to wake up," he said. Joan slowly opened her eyes and looked at the doctor.
"God. What happened?"
"I think Adam would rather talk to you about that." Joan narrowed her eyes a little.
"God!" she said, realizing who the doctor was. God gave her His wave and left the room.
*
As Doctor God entered the main room of the ICU, Adam and Luke approched him.
"She's awake," he told them. They both let out relieved sighs.
"And she is allowed visitors, but only one at a time," he told them.
"Go," Luke told Adam.
"You're her brother, yo," Adam said.
"Yeah, but your Adam, trust me, she'd rather see you," Luke told Adam. Without hesitation, Adam re-entered the room.
"Jane?" Adam asked, stepping into the room.
"Adam," Joan said quietly, a smile forming on her lips.
"Are you okay?" he asked, sitting next to her bed. "Of course you aren't okay, yo. A building blew up while you were still in it. Or.. on it.." Joan looked at him.
"Then how'd I get here?" she asked.
-flashback-
The helicopter took off. Adam, Luke and Iris looked out the window as it lifted into the air when another explosion went off and the hotel was consumed in a reddish cloud.
"Dude, we've got to go back and get them!" Adam said as the reddish cloud began to consum the hotel.
"There isn't enough room in the helicopter," the pilot told him.
"Then fly down and drop us off and get back up there!" Luke said. "They could die!"
"They may already have died. I don't think anyone could have survived that."
-end flashback-
"So if the pilot wouldn't go back and get us, and the hotel blew up, how did we get out..? Grace did get out too, right?" Adam nodded.
"The pilot went back after an arguement with me and your brother. You guys were both out when we landed, the fire was spreading on the roof, but by some twist kind of fate it hadn't reached you guys yet. We picked you up and all wound up here. Guess someone up there's on our side."
"If you only knew.." Joan said under her breath.
"Sorry, what?" Adam asked.
"Nothing. So.. um.. about what happened on the roof.. before you got on the helicopter.."
"What about it, yo?"
"Sorry about that. I.. I mean, I do love you, your my best friend.. and the kiss.. it was nice.. but there was that whole we're gonna die factor, and I know you and Iris are together, so we can just forget about it, you know. It never happened?"Joan asked. Adam forced a smile.
"U-un-unchallenged," he stuttered.
