Different Paths Part 20:
Lots of tears

Leo orbed with Prue to the hospital and they reappeared in the woman's toilette.
"Go... I go home already..."
Prue just nodded and ran out of the toilette and to the ICU where they had kept Meghan in. nearly there, she saw a lot of nurses and doctor's leaving the ICU and her hopes were sinking.
"No, no, no, no"
she whispered silently as she made her way through the crowd. She looked into the room and saw Andy holding a 'lifeless' body. She just shook her head, faster and faster.
'No... She's not... she can't be... no...'
Prue thought and let out a sob, as tears ran again down her cheeks
"no..."
she finally said aloud, earning Andy's attention. He smiled slightly; he too had tears in his eyes. He whispered something to their girl, who suddenly turned around and faced Prue
"momi!"
she yelled a huge smile on her face. Prue looked shocked for a few seconds. She thought she was dead and now her little girl was looking at her with a happy face, like she'd just had been sleeping for along time. There was the purple light again and Meghan disappeared, leaving the machines to beep on their own, so she could be with Prue. She hugged Prue tightly. And Prue just starred into Andy's eyes, not understanding this. He told Leo it was an emergency and now Meghan was awake. Alive. Alright. Prue looked down at Meghan. She felt her warm skin on hers and her breath on her neck. She smelled her hair and heard her voice. She was there. She was okay. Prue held her tightly back
"oh my god... you're okay... you're alright... you're there... I'm there..."
suddenly she felt how her neck was starting to get wet and heard Meghan sob a little
"don't go awai, momi..."
"I'm not gonna go anywhere. You are okay. I'm here... shshshsh..."
Prue said as she started to crawl Meghan's hair for the very first time. Andy went over to them and helped Prue to the bed... knowing this was much for her to handle, probably even too much.
"te... te... bad man took me awai... an me wanna scream... but... but he... he tok mi foise (voice) awai... an... an ten sutenli you all wewe awai... me... me call fow you... but you wewe nowewe. I heawd youw foise but me no see you... and you didn't pick me... you wewe awai..."
Meghan cried
"I know... shsh... it's over now... you're alright. The bad man is gone. You 're okay... you're okay..."
Prue whispered. she repeated the 'you're okay' part a million of times, to tell it to herself and to Meghan, while kissing her over and over again. When Meghan calmed finally almost completely down. Prue kissed her temple a few more times and noticed how hot she felt. She looked at Andy to see if she really felt right. her husband just nodded
"she ahs a fever..."
he answered. Prue looked back down at Meghan and grabbed for a nearby blanket wrapping it around Meghan
"me wanna go home"
Meghan said lowly... still sniffling slightly. Prue looked at Andy who nodded and then left the room to go ask a doctor and/or sign all the necessary papers. Prue just kept rocking Meghan and then tried laying her down on the bed, but Meghan kept a tight hold on her
"c'mon pricess... lay down. Slept a little..."
Prue whispered but Meghan shook her head
"no go"
"I won't go... but sweetie you still have a little fever and need to rest."
Meghan again shook her head
"okay... if you promise me you'll sleep when we get home, you don't have to sleep now"
Meghan just nodded
"you're okay" Prue just whispered again and kissed her forehead gently, continueing to rock her slightly.
