Author: Sorry for the cliffy but I had to do it. :) I'm so evil I know! Thanks to everyone for the reviews! You guys are awesome! Hope you like this chapter.

Warning: some more abuse….

The doctor walked out of the room as Jack was being carried away by the cops. Jack just kept his focus on the doctor as he walked up to Scott and just shook his head. Jack felt his heart just drop to his feet. He didn't care what happened anymore.

The doctor walked up to Scott while shaking his head "I cant believe she is alive. She is so lucky Mr. Wilson. She's a fighter." The doctor told them. Scott turned around and just put his face in his hands.

"I cant believe this. What happened?" Scott asked relieved

"She woke up and began breathing heavily, but we settled her down. She is stable now, but she needs her rest. As soon as we can we would like to start rehab and therapy. The fall made her bleed internally, so as long as the bleeding can contain its self. Keep the stress to the minimum and just let her rest.

"Thank you so much Dr. Hill, you don't know how much this means to me."

"Its no problem Scott, just keep an eye on her." Dr. Hills replied. The doctor patted Scott on the back before walking away. Scott rubbed his face before walking to the door of the hospital. He saw the cops putting Jack into the cop car. He opened the door and walked towards the car. "Let them go." He replied. Jack's head shot straight up towards Scott.

"Sir, they went against the restraining order and they resisted arrest, and also assaulted a police officer. We need to take them in." one of the cops responded

"Just let them go. We have had enough drama for tonight."

The cops released the boys as Jack made his way over to Scott. "She's fine Jack. The doctors said she was stable now."

"Let me see her." He told him

"She needs her rest."

"I want to see her."

"I cant let you do that."

"Bastard!" Jack yelled.

"Jack!" his mother yelled at him "Its time we go home now. Too much has gone on tonight and I don't want to see you go to jail. Lets just go home and we will come back tomorrow."

"Tomorrow?" Jack asked turning to Scott

Scott nodded his head "Come back tomorrow." He replied. Jack looked at him before turning back to his mother and walking away. Evelyn grabbed hold on Angel and Bobby's arms and led them to the car. "Get in and I don't want to hear anything from any of you. We are going to take Jenna home and then we are going to have a serious talk when we get to the house. What were you thinking hitting a cop, twice." She added.

"Ma…." Bobby started

"I don't want to hear it." Evelyn cut in. Bobby just threw himself back against the seat and sighed. They arrived at Jenna's house

"Thank you Ms. Evelyn . I'll see you tomorrow Jack." Jenna replied getting out of the car. Jack smiled at her before she shut the door.

"Jack are you alright sweetheart?" Evelyn asked

Jack just nodded his head before looking out the window. They finally arrived at their house and Bobby and Angel took off. Jack just slowly walked towards the door.

"Sweetheart, go get some rest. I'll talk to you tomorrow. Right now I need to deal with your brothers." Evelyn replied. She kissed him on the forehead before going into the living room. "Bobby, Angel, get down here right now!" Evelyn yelled. The boys came down the stairs and into the living room where Evelyn was sitting. "Sit!" she demanded

"Ma, we were just trying to help Jack." Angel replied

"By tackling cops and hitting them? You could have been in some serious trouble."

"Ma, Kennedy needed Jack. They weren't going to let him in there. He almost lost her tonight." Bobby replied

"That still gave you no right to get into a fight with those police officers. They were just doing their job."

"And we were doing ours, trying to be the big brother and help our little brother." Angel replied. Bobby just looked at him before rolling his eyes.

"Ma, we were just trying to help Jack that's all. We are sorry that we worried you. That bastard Scott, wouldn't let him see her."

"I know." Evelyn replied "Just don't do it again. I don't want to see you go back to jail anytime soon. You just got out." Bobby smiled at him mother. "Now go to bed." Angel and Bobby got up and moved to the stairs. Bobby smacked Angel in the back of the head "We're just trying to be good brothers? What the hell was that?" bobby asked

"It sounded good at the time." Angel replied rubbing his head

"Don't speak Angel. Don't ever speak!" Bobby told him. He went into his room and collapsed on the bed. He laid there looking up at the ceiling thinking about the events that took place last night. He was praying that he wasn't going to be the one that told Jack what happened. He knew Jack wouldn't be able to take it.

The next morning, Jack was up early ready to go to the hospital to see Kennedy. He found his mother sitting at the table with breakfast ready. "Ma when can we go to the hospital?" Jack asked sitting down

"You're up early." Evelyn replied

"When ma?"

"After you eat. Go get your brothers."

Jack got up again and rolled his eyes. He went up the stairs and banged on Angels door "Get up jarhead! Its time for breakfast!" He moved over to Bobby's room and banged on the door. "Get up! Breakfast time!"

"Go away!" Bobby yelled. Jack banged on the door again "Get your ass up Bobby!"

"Bang on my door again fairy and see what happens!" Bobby yelled. Jack started laughing. He made his way back down to the kitchen and sat down at the table where Evelyn had already put his food down. Moments later Bobby and Angel made their way down to the kitchen. Bobby hit Jack in the back of the head causing him to spit out his food. Jack just started laughing.

After everyone had finished eating their breakfast, they went upstairs as Jack sat on the couch and waited. The phone began to ring as he was turning the channels on the tv. "I got it!" he yelled. He moved over to the phone and answered it. "Hello?"

"Jack…" came a soft whisper. Jack's heart stopped

"Ken?" he asked "Is that you baby?"

"Yes, its me." She whispered again.

"Are you alright? Is everything alright?"

"Yes, its ok. I'm fine."

"I am coming to see you ok. We will be there in 10 minutes."

"My father…" she started but began coughing again.

"Listen, your father said it was ok. I need you to calm down ok. Take deep breaths. I will be there in 10 minutes ok. Everything is going to be ok. Oh god Ken I am so happy to hear your voice right now."

"Hurry ok." She begged.

"I will. See you soon," he gently hung the phone up and took off running "Ok, people! Its time to go! I don't care what you look like, but we need to go. Come on!" he yelled. He went running into Bobby's room and grabbed his arm. "Lets go!" he yelled. "Angel, get your ass down here!" he yelled

"What the hell is your problem?" Bobby asked

"We need to get to the hospital."

"We are going Jack, calm down." Angel told him

"Come on we need to leave." He grabbed his coat and went outside to the car. Bobby and Angel looked at each other before going outside. Evelyn soon followed and they were off to the hospital. 10 minutes later Jack didn't wait for the car to stop as he took off running into the hospital. He ran down the hallway to where Kennedy's room was. He saw Scott standing at the door. Scott saw him coming and moved towards the door. "I want to see her." Jack declared

"I'm sorry Jack. She…"

"You told me I could see her and I want to see her."

"She's not in there right now. They took her up to the ER for some test. She should be back in a few minutes."

Jack leaned his head against the wall to try to catch his breath. He leaned up and looked over at Scott. "Why did you do this to her?" Jack finally asked

"What are you talking about?"

"She is just a girl. You are suppose to be her father. Not someone who torments her and beats her until she is black and blue. What did she do to deserve this? All she wanted was love from you and you ruined that."

"I am her father and I love her with everything in me. I lost my wife and I cant lose my daughter too."

"You already lost your daughter. I told you that last night. She isn't your daughter anymore."

Scott went to say something else, but the doctors came around the corner with Kennedy. Jack saw her and about threw up. She saw him smiled. "How is she Dr. Hill?" Scott asked

"She is doing better. She might be able to go home in a couple of days. She wont be able to do a lot of active things, but she will be able to walk again. With the therapy and rehab that she will be attending for the next couple of weeks, she will be the old Kennedy is no time." Jack just looked at Scott before going into Kennedy's room. He looked over at her and tried his hardest not to turn around and go kill Scott. Instead he moved over to the bed and grab hold of her hand. "Hey baby." He replied rubbing her hands.

"You came." She whispered.

"Of course I did. I wasn't going to leave you alone another minute."

She smiled at him. "How are you feeling? Are you in any pain?"

"I really cant feel too much. They keep pumping me with medicine so I don't feel any pain. They told me that I was lucky to be alive. I hit stomach first. I broke my ribs and my arm. I cant seem to stop bleeding inside though." She began to cry. "They said if they cant stop the bleeding, that it wont be good."

"Its going to be alright ok. You are going to get through this."

"I'm so scared Jack."

"Ken, I need to ask you a question ok." She nodded her head "What exactly happened to make you fall from your room." Kennedy just looked at him, thinking about that night.

"What were you thinking? Going to that boys house, pointing a gun at me. Are you crazy? Did you actually think that I wasn't going to get you back." Scott yelled at his daughter. Kennedy just looked at her father. All she wanted to do was get back to Jack. She knew he would come for her. All she had to do was wait in room for him to come. If only it could have been that easy. "You are my daughter. Do you actually think people can keep me from you? I am a fucking lawyer for gods sake. I always win Kennedy. Always." He told her in her ear. She pulled away from him and backed into the wall.

"I just want to go to my room." She told him. He moved toward her as she tensed up.

"Fine, go up there." He told her. She moved away from and took off running up the stairs. Scott made his way into the kitchen and grabbed the vodka from the freezer.

"Ken, are you alright?" Jack asked interrupting her thoughts.

"I'm just tired." She lied. "All I seem to do is sleep now." She tried to laugh.

"That's a good thing. You need your energy."

"When this is all over I might not sleep again." She smiled.

"Don't." Jack told her. "Don't put on the act."

"I'm so scared Jack. Whats going to happen to me?"

"You are going to be ok. Why are you talking like this? Everything is going to be ok. The doctors said that you are going to be fine."

"All I kept seeing was your face as I began falling.."

"Shh….dont talk about it."

Kennedy began staring up at the ceiling. "Ken, talk to me. What are you thinking you about?"

"Nothing."

"Don't lie. You suck at it." Jack replied with a smile. He leaned down to kiss her but she turned away. "What? What it is?"

"I…Jack…not now ok." She replied turning away

"I don't understand whats wrong." He replied "Did something happen at your dads?"

"Yes, yes!" she yelled "Something always happens Jack. Do you not get that now!" He got up from his chair

"Calm down ok. Don't get yourself worked up or I can be in here with you."

"No, don't leave me." She begged. Tears began coming down her cheeks "Don't leave me alone ok."

"I'm not going to leave you alright. I wont leave you, but don't get worked up. You need to save your energy."

"Jack will you hold me?"

"Can I touch you?"

She just looked at him "I just don't want to break you." He replied with a soft smile.

"You wont break me." She whispered. He moved back over to the bed and laid down beside her. He wrapped his arms around her waist carefully and laid his head down beside her. She felt herself begin to cry again.

"Don't cry, its going to be alright." He replied. He kissed her on the cheek and wiped the tears away.

"I'm in so much pain, but not physically. I have all this built up inside of me. All this pain and I don't know what to do with it."

"What pain? You are really confusing me right now."

"I don't want to talk about it right now. Lets just sleep ok."

Jack looked down at her as she closed her eyes. There was something she wasn't telling him and he needed to know. He closed his eyes and leaned his head against hers. They were both asleep in a matter of minutes.

Kennedy waited and waited in her room for Jack to come. She ran around her room looking for her cell phone but forgot that she left it at Jacks house. She cursed herself but tried to take her mind off everything. She started her computer. Soon after she got on the computer she heard footsteps coming up the stairs. She remembered she had locked her door so she turned back to the computer. She just wished that Jack was there with her. There was a knock on the door, but she just ignored it. The knocks got louder and louder. She shut her computer and moved over to the window. "I'm busy!" she yelled.

"Let me in! We need to talk!" he yelled.

"Please just go away!" she yelled. "I don't want to talk right now."

She heard footsteps going away from the door and she took a deep breath in. She could feel the tears rising. She went to go back to the computer when a loud bang sounded on the door. She jumped and hit the floor. The banging got louder and louder. "What are you doing!" she yelled. Holes were being made in the door by an object Scott had in his hands. "Daddy stop!" she yelled. She saw his face so full of rage through the hole in the door. She saw his hand come through and unlock the door. Kennedy backed all the way into the window when she felt that she couldn't go back any further. Her father entered the room with a golf club in his hands. She turned around and unlocked the window. Just as she was about to go out, her fathers hand wrapped around her neck. He threw her against the wall causing her to fall to the ground. He took the golf club and started banging her desk, hitting her computer. "You running from me?" he yelled. She watched as her computer just shattered. He moved over to her. She began screaming as she fought to get him off of her. He grabbed her hair and jerked up to his face. "You think you can pull a gun on me and get away with it. Huh?" he yelled in her face. She began sobbing. He got the golf club and brought it up to hit her but she moved away just as it came down on the ground. He threw the golf club on the ground and picked her up and threw her on the bed. He got on top of her as she began fighting him. She was destined for this not to happen again. She struggled against him. He leaned down to her ear "You are going to regret ever pulling that gun on me." She saw the evil and rage in his eyes. "Jack!" she screamed. She kneed her father and caused him to fall to the ground. She found the opportunity to run for the window. Just as she got out on the balcony, her father was right behind her. She climbed over the ledge, but he grabbed her arm. "Where do you think you are going?" he asked.

"You will not touch me again." She replied. She dug her nails into his skin and he let her go. She felt herself freefalling from her balcony, the only thing on her mind was Jack. "Kennedy!" he father yelled as he watched her hit the ground. The last thing she saw was Bobby running to her before she went into the world of blackness.

Jack was being shaken awake when Kennedy opened her eyes. "What the…" he replied opening his eyes

"Visiting hours have been over for an hour sir. Why are you still here?" a man asked

"We fell asleep." Jack replied rubbing his eyes.

"Is everything alright?" Kennedy asked

"Yeah baby. Everything's fine. Its time for me to go." Jack told her turning towards her.

"No, you cant leave. You told me you weren't going to leave me." Kennedy began panicking

"Ken, I need you to calm down ok." Jack replied "Sir, is there anyway that I can just stay with her tonight? She is scared."

"I'm sorry, but…" the man began

"Please, I don't want to be alone." Kennedy whispered with scared tone in her voice. Jack looked over at her and saw the tears welling up in her eyes. He then looked back at the man.

"I guess, but just tonight. She needs to get her rest so let her go back to sleep."

"We both need our rest sir." Jack replied. He laid back down as the man checked all her IVs. He then left the room, leaving Kennedy and Jack alone on the bed. "You alright?" he asked

"Yeah, just a little tired."

"Yeah me too. I haven't slept all night for two nights straight."

"Because of me?"

"Yeah sort of." He replied "I was worried about you."

"Did you see Bobby?"

"Yeah, he came in yesterday morning. He was the one who told me about you being in the hospital."

"Oh, is he ok?"

"Yeah hes fine. He almost got arrested last night, but he's fine."

She turned to him with serious eyes "Arrested?"

"Yeah, him and Angel got into another fight with the cops. And we also violated the restraining order your father had against us, but your dad stopped the cops from taking us to jail. Actually he's the one who told me I could come see you today."

"My father said it was ok for you to come see me?" she asked

"Yeah, I don't know something came over him last night and he was like come back tomorrow."

"That's not like him at all."

"Yeah, I think you're right." Jack leaned over and kissed her on the cheek "Let's get some rest."

"Jack, can we just talk for a minute?" she asked

"Yeah, sure. What do you want to talk about?"

"I don't know. Anything."

"Ok, well we have missed 2 days of school already. I wonder what we missed."

"ok, not that!" she told him. "Way to depress someone."

"Depress? Are you serious? Over school? I am relieved that I have missed school. It would have been the happiest day of my life."

She smiled at him "Did you really mean all those things you said to me last night?" she asked with a sly smile on her face

"Well what exactly did I say to you? I don't remember." Jack replied with that same smile

"Well you were yelling at me to begin with, then you said something along the lines of…"

"I think I love you." He finished her sentence. She looked up at him

"You do?" she asked

"Yeah, you had me at hello." He had a huge smile on his face.

Kennedy began laughing "Jerry Maguire."

"Ok, so that was a little cliché, but you did. From the moment I laid eyes on you, I knew I had to have you. Then you bit my head off." He replied with a smile.

"I love you too." She replied looking up at him. He leaned down and kissed her, this time she let him. He didn't want to take things too fast so he stopped and laid back holding onto her. She smiled at him as she watched him close his eyes. She laid back down and closed hers. She felt a tear go down her face as she thought about telling him what really happened that night at her fathers house.
