"Eric, we need to talk." Lou says.

"What? What's going on?"

"Let's talk inside." Det. Michaels says as he and Lou walked in to the living room followed by Eric then Lucy walks in.

"Okay dad, I'm ready? What's going on?" Lucy asked as she walked and saw her dad, Lou and Michaels sitting down.

"Is Kevin okay?"

"Kevin is fine, just sit down next to your dad." Det. Michaels says then Lucy sits down.

"There has been a bad accident involving Annie and the kids. Matt and Mary who were going to leave tomorrow night, have postponed their trip, Mary had someone cover for her."

Eric and Lucy sit and look at what they just told them.

"How bad are they?" Eric asked after a few minutes of silence.

"Bad." Det. Michaels says.

"Eric, Det. Michaels drove me here, I'll drive you both to the hospital."

"Are Annie and the kids okay? I can't lose them, not even Annie." Eric thinks to himself with tears that start to flow as he is in the front, Lou is driving and Lucy is in the back.

"Wonder what happened? How bad they are? I'm just glad Kevin wasn't involved." Lucy thinks to herself as they are just pulling in.

"Matt, Mary?" Eric says as he and Lucy saw them when the got to the waiting room where Peter and Paris where there as well.

"Hey dad." Matt and Mary replies when they saw their father.

"Did you see them?" Eric asked.

"Yeah, you need to talk to the doctor dad." Matt says then Mary went to go get him.

"Hello Eric." Dr. Seau said as he sat down, Eric, Matt, Mary and Lucy were sitting together then Kevin came in and sat next to Lucy, consoled her while Peter was consoled by Paris sitting next to Kevin.

"How bad doctor?" Eric asked.

"Sam and David just have some scratches, bruises, nothing major but I want to keep them in for observation, Ruthie has cuts, bruises and will need to stay in for a few weeks because we are monitoring her for possible internal bleeding. Simon has a few broken ribs, some internal bleeding we have stopped and are monitoring him as well. Annie has a broken arm, bruised ribs, fractures and a some scratches."

"Thank you doctor." Eric said as the doctor started to leave.

"You all can see them for a few minutes but they do need to rest."

"Okay." Eric says.

Eric, Matt, Mary, Lucy and Kevin went to see the twins first while Cecelia went to see Simon and Peter went to see Ruthie.

"Hey Ruthie." Peter said as he walked up beside her looking at her as Paris was just outside.

"Hey. Whose out there?"

"You're dad, sisters, brother and Kevin. They went to see Sam and David since they were awake and asking for him, they will be here, I just wanted to see you first cause my mom and I are going to leave. We are not allowed to stay."

"Oh. Did you see the car or anything." Ruthie asked.

"No. We found out when Cecelia told us and your brother and sister at the Pool Hall so my mom and I came to the hospital but we wanted to wait for your dad and siblings so we did.."

In another room-

"Hey Simon. Listen I know that we have been through a bumpy road in our relationship but I hope you are okay and I'm going to go now. Hope you and your family are okay, bye." Cecelia told Simon as she left, he was not awake when she talked to him then when she left, she saw Eric and his kids going to see Ruthie so Cecelia had left as she saw Peter and his mom head of her.

While Peter was talking to Ruthie, Matt, Mary, Lucy and Kevin were talking to the twins for a little bit as Eric was talking to the doctor outside the twins' room.

"Hey Sam." Mary and Lucy said.

"I wanna go home and I wanna see mommy."

"I know. You and David need to stay here for a few days then you can go home. We are going to see her but we are going to see Ruthie, Simon then mommy." Mary told her youngest brother.

"Matt I'm scared to be here."

"It's okay, there is nothing to be afraid of, they just want to make you better just like they are making David feel better, Ruthie, Simon and mommy. Daddy, me, Kevin, Lucy and Mary are going to see Ruthie, Simon then mommy, okay."

"Okay. I love you." David said.

"I love you too." Matt told David.

A few minutes later, Lucy, Mary went just across the room to see Sam while Matt and Kevin went to see David, they boys had the same hospital room while Eric was told by the nurse the doctor need to talk to him so they spoke near Sam and David's room. The doctor tells Eric that David may have an inflammation of the appendicitis and may need to take medications to be treated which he is already taking. Matt and Kevin left to go see Ruthie when Eric went in to see his boys then a few minutes later Lucy and Mary go see Ruthie while Matt and Kevin went to see Simon then they all eventually saw Annie.
