Chapter 10

Jake slowly entered the elevator that would take him to the floor where I.C.U. was kept. He was shocked to hear that she had to be in Intesive Care to survive. He walked onto the floor and looked for the room she was in. Finally he found it and opened the door. There was a blanket hanging from the ceiling coving the bed so you coulnd't see the patient behind it. When it was pulled back by a nurse, Jake gasped at the first sight of Sam since last night. She was very pale. An oxygent mask over her face. Her head and shoulder was covered with a white bandage. But when the nurse pulled the blanket down. He saw one also on and over her rib cage. His heart broke for her.

"Exuse me young man?" The nurse said with a smile. "Can I help you?"

"Whats wrong with her, I-I mean what kind of injuries." He stuttered still staring at Sam.

"Who are you? Family?" She asked.

"Boyfriend."

"She has a broken rib, ripped up shoulder, and that cut on her head has caused her to slip into a coma last night on the way here in the ambulance." She said looking sadly towards Sam.

"What caused everything?"

"Well from what we found a animal of some kind we think a coyote, caused the shoulder. She must of fell and hit her head agianst something on the ground. The rib? I really do not know. Maybe hit that as well?" She told him checking Sams blood pressure as well.

"A coyote?" He was now looking over her beside the bed.

"I'm not sure son, but I have to go check on some other people." And left the room.

Jake pulled up a chair beside her bed. He had so many more questions.

"Brat, I'm here I'll never go. I love you Sam, I really do. I know what I did was unforgivable. Please forgive me." He said as he put his head on the bed side. He heard beeping from the machines montering her vital signs. He slowly felt himself drift into the sleep he didn't get the night before. He was just scared for her.

"Jake? Jake!" His brothers voice jerked him awake. "There you are! Mom saw that you left school and she asked me to find out where you were. 'Cause well ya know she trusts me more than the others." Quinn walked into the room. But he stopped quickly and gasped when he saw Sam.

"Oh my goodness." He said quietly. He had no idea it was this bad. He didn't really see her yesterday, he was trying to calm down the horses from the ambulance lights. She looked so pale and weak. The machines around him were noisey.

"What got her?" He was almost didn't want to ask.

"Coyote they think." Jake said shortly.

"Did they do a Rabies test?" Quinn asked.

"I'm not sure. Her shoulder is ripped up, head wound, and a broken rib." Jake left out the part of it being his fault. "You can tell mom that I'm not leaving."

"I dont think she will be happy man." He said.

"I really do not care at this moment." Jake replied.

"Wheres her family?" Quinn wanted to know. Earning a shrug from Jake. Jake didn't know where Wyatt and Bryanna and her Gram were.

"Cody is at our place." Quinn said. "They dropped him off this morning when you left. He sure is a cute kid." He smiled was small.

"Well now that I've found you I should get back home little brother." He said and left Jake alone with Sam once again. Quinn knew Sam loved Jake. He also knew that Jake loved her. They've got alot coming to them.
