Chapter 6: Hospitalized

Vince came down. "Have a nice talk?" He asked.

Dom sighed. "She spilled her heart out to me. She showed me how much of an ass I was to her. She rendered me speechless. She said she was leaving cause I didn't want her around. I didn't say anything. What now Vince? What now?" Just after he said this Ro came upstairs with a duffle bag and keys in hand. She walked past them oblivious. Tear streaking her face. Vince tried to stop her, but it didn't work. Her arms yet again dripped blood. She walked out the door, and got into her car. Tires screeched, pavement smoked, and she disappeared. Everyone rushed downstairs.

"Where's she going? WTF happened?" Brian asked angrily.

"Dom didn't stop her in time, She poured her heart out which made him speechless. She said she was leaving so she did." Vince explained. "I couldn't stop her either."

"WHAT?!" Brian exclaimed. "You know shes gonna die right?! You know what she means to us? She took care of Jesse Vince and I for two years before you decided to show up. Shes like a sister to us. You, her actual brother, will never give her the time of day. She used to tell us about your childhood. She'd talk about Mia, Vince, Letty, and you. She never talked about hers. She used to just sob at night, but whenever I asked what was wrong she would always ask me 'They'll come won't they? I mean they won't just stay away and not care. Will they?' She was so scared that you would never come back. She stopped the night sobs when you came back. Then she would sit up and tell me stories of how you would save her from your parents even though I knew they weren't true cause she had a wishing in her eyes. Everytime I saw that I wished I could have been there for her. I don't see how you could have let it happen." Brian was mad, no beyond mad. He was livid. Rose was like his sister and he needed her as did most of the rest of them. He was scared.

"It's late got to bed. She'll be fine. Just sleep." Vince said. Everyone left and went to bed.

At about four a.m. Brian's cell rang and woke him up.

"Hello?" He said

"Hi is Brian there?" The voice on the other end asked.

"I'm Brian. Who are you?" He said

"Hi I'm Dr. Tony Anders. We have a patient by the name of Rose Torretto here. We found a note on her steering wheel saying to call this number and ask for Brian." The Doctor replied.

"Oh God, is she ok? What happened? Whats wrong with her?" Brian said franticly.

"She has lost a lot of blood and passed out while driving and got in to a wreck. She lost more blood and has been unconsious for a long time. We're not sure she'll make it. . . .I'm sorry." Dr. Anders replied.

"Oh god. I'll be down quickly. What room?" Brian was hysterical.

"Twenty-two." He heard Tony say.

"Thanx bye." Brian hung up. He got up and got dressed. He ran down the stairs, got in the car and sped off towards the hospital waking every one. He was at the hospital in five minutes. He parked and ran into the buliding. He ran down the hall and burst in the door of room twenty-two. There laid Rose black and blue cut up all over. He started to cry. She was so helpless. The blood bag emptying, the IV dripping, and her heart slowly beating. The Doctor came in. "Shes stabalizing. She has a fifty percent chance of living now. She may wake up soon. If she keeps stablizing she could make it." He said.

"Thanx Doc. Best news all day." Brian replied.

The doctor exited. Brian walked over to her. Her eyes fluttered open. She saw Brian crying.

"Everythings gonna be alright. Be strong. Believe." She said then passed out again the heart moniter went flat. Doctors and nurses poured into the room. They told him to wait outside. He did as he was asked. His cell rang.

"Hello?" He said sniffleing.

"Where are you?" Vince's voice asked.

"Hospital. Rose here. Heart stopped. Dying." Is all Brian could get out.

"Oh god. I'll be down." Vince hung up. "Come on we gotta go. Follow me."

Everyone got in their cars sped off. When they has gotten inside they saw Brian hunched over in a seat in the waiting room. Vince rushed over.

"What's going on now?" He asked

"I don't know. They revived her, but they aren't sure she'll make it. She woke up just before her heart stopped. She said 'Everythings gonna be alright. Be strong. Believe.' "

Vince teared up. Letty collapsed. Dom just sat there trembling, blaming himself. They carried Letty off to wake her and check her over. Mia went too she was hysterical. Brian went to comfort her and Leon went to check on Letty. Dom sat and put his head in his hands.

"You know this is all my fault. God I'm such an ass. I just needed to say three words and I couldn't. I could have stopped all this. If only I had cared when we were kids. Things would be so different." He said.
