"GET YOUR HANDS OFF OF MY GRAND-DAUGHTER!" And in a flurry of movement, Mack's grandfather ripped Mack out of the man's grip. Austin's father fell to the floor with a loud smack, blood pooling around the back of his head. Mack gasped in shock as millions of events seemed to unfold before her eyes. Police and paramedics flooded into the house, taking her boyfriend away and shoving his father into the back of a police car. Brady's mother finally crawling out of bed and screaming at her son's lifeless body, only to be taken away by police as well. The situation settled into Mack's mind and suddenly she lurched forward into a sprint. She raced over to the ambulance where Brady was being loaded into. Paramedics told her to stay back and remain calm, but somehow her 'calm' developed into tears and screeches.
"BRADY!" She cried. "Please, please, please, please! I need to be with him!" They informed her which hospital to be at if they wanted to see him, but drove away without her. Her already tear-blurred eyes squinted against the flashing sirens. A gentle hand on her shoulder lead her to a car hidden in the bushes.
"C'mon, sweetie. Let's get you to the hospital," her grandfather said softly. She sniffled quietly in the passenger seat, soon sobbing again as the reached the hospital. She ran in, ignoring the sympathetic stares of those around her. They all assumed that a loved one had died. But Brady wasn't dead. He couldn't die. He just had to be okay. The receptionist informed her that Brady couldn't have any visitors at the moment, but if they would wait for a few hours they could see him later that night.
Mack struggled to make herself comfortable chairs. But she decided that it didn't matter anyways. She wouldn't be able to take her mind off of Brady anyways.
"Are you two here for the young man named Brady?" A nurse smiled kindly. She led them into a well-lit room where Brady lay in bed.
"Oh my god, Brady..." Mack whispered. He was unconscious, and looked so broken. His leg was broken, he had a pretty bad concussion, and multiple cuts. She took his hand in hers, almost shivering from the coolness of it. "Please wake up."
