Chapter 14: Over
Deacon POV
"Family of Alonso?" A doctor asks and when we all stand up he says "she's going to live and I expect a full recovery" with that the whole room just makes a sigh of relief and we hold each other. All the fear that I felt these hours just washed away, she's going to be ok.
"Christina has a broken arm, bruised rib cage with 2 broken, a collapsed lung, and severe inflammation in her lungs as well as tremors from all the chaos, cuts, and a major concussion. All this will heal in time, if you want you can find her to the room on my left" He says and with that, he leaves. We all go in and there's Chris already sitting up on the bed.
"Hi" She says but her voice is hoarse. Her hand shakes, and in fact, her whole body is shaking.
"Hey Chris" Annie says in a mother like fashion
"What happened?" Chris asks and we tell her the whole story, Chris listens intently but her eyes are becoming distant, I can tell that she is starting to remember the whole thing.
"Mumford got Mark's crew but we aren't sure Make escaped or-" Hondo starts but Chris shakes her head.
"I saw him, dead" she said and we decide to let it drop. Annie takes Chris' hand.
"Chris, thank you so much" She starts "you brought David to me with just a few scrapes. Everyone knows you saved him and I can't thank you enough" for the first time since the beginning of this awful day, Chris smiles
"It was no problem Annie. Seeing you two reminds me why I do this job" She says as she begins to fall asleep "thanks for having my back" is her last words before she succumbs to sleep.
