Danny's P.O.V

The paramedics arriving and them taking her to the hospital was a huge blur. She was unconscious, alive but unconscious. With the amount of blood and the state of her room, I couldn't believe she was alive. Ed rode in the ambulance and I followed in my car with Delinda and picked up Jillian on the way to the hospital.

They were doing tests on her when we arrived. I sat in the private visitor's room with Ed, Delinda and Jillian.

"Can I know what's going on now?" I asked as Nessa, Mary, Sam and Mike walked in to the room. Mary sat beside me and hugged me.

"is she ok?" Sam asked

"We don't know yet" Ed told them all.

"Ed, come on, please tell me what happened to her? I wanna know what's going on?" I said loudly but trying not to shout.

"The guy that beat her up is her ex husband…" Delinda began.

"DELINDA!" Ed shouted

"He has a right to know Dad, he cares about her just as much as we do, he deserves to know" Delinda told her Dad. He looked at her as if to say continue so she did "she was with him a year and a half before they married. He was like Prince Charming before the wedding but two months after he began to beat her. It carried on like that for about 4 years, over the smallest of things, food not being cooked right, or a towel being out of place. She got pregnant and didn't tell him till she was showing so he accused her of cheating, beat her in to a comma for three weeks. we tired to tell her not to go back but she was afraid of him so she went back, he hit her one day and she couldn't take it anymore so she stabbed him, she went to court and she got off with self defence, he got six months in prison. Its been a year since the court date. He was getting his revenge" Delinda finished

"Why didn't you do him over?" I asked Ed annoyed.

"It wasn't that simple" Ed said looking up at me angrily.

"She doesn't seem like the kind of person that would stand for that kind of thing" Nessa said.

"She isn't now" Jillian said.

"Why didn't she just tell me?" I asked. This was so messed up I didn't understand what was going on it felt like a bad dream.

"It's a pride thing" Ed said "she doesn't want anyone to think they can walk all over her. Kyle was her weak spot; she was vulnerable when she was with him. He made her weak. If you mentioned his name to her she freezes, she doesn't know what to do. She doesn't want anyone to know that someone had that kind of power over her" Ed explained.

A doctor came in holding a clip board. We all stood up from where we were sat to hear the news.

"She's stable" he announced "got a few broken ribs, and just cuts and bruises, but no permanent damage. She's sleeping at the moment you will be able to see her shortly" he told us.

"Thank god" Jillian sighed hugging Ed.

"when can she come home?" Delinda asked

"We will see how she feels when she wakes up" the Doctor told us.

"Thank you Evan" Ed said shaking the doctor's hand.

"Any time Ed" Evan said"and I'd advice you to call the cops"

"it'll be taken care of" Ed assured him.
