Special thanks to Elenhin, for first skims and last draws…

Luke felt his heart fall to his stomach as he looked at his cousin in horror; Bo lay unconscious on the floor, his arms and legs thrashing about like a fish out of water.

Squeezing through the narrow opening of the door, Luke saw in a moment that had been Bo's long limbs that were blocking the entrance, and his flailing hands against the sides of the shower and sink, making the gut-wrenching sounds.

Jesse too looked in through the opening and held his hand up to Daisy. "Don't come in here, Daisy. Ya call an ambulance… tell 'em to come right away!"

"Uncle Jesse… what…?" cried Daisy, much frightened.

"Call Daisy! Be quick!" barked Jesse, his voice gruff with fear.

Daisy didn't need to be asked twice. She raced to the phone, blinking back tears as she dialed.

Luke knelt down beside Bo, quaking inside as he saw the fluttering of Bo's blond eyelashes and the blue tinge on his cousin's lips. Gently, he placed a trembling hand on Bo's forehead. "I'm here, Bo… we're all here with ya…" His breath caught in his throat as he contemplated whether or not Bo could even hear him. It didn't much matter. He was gonna remind Bo that he was there, whether the boy heard him or not. He brushed the boy's soft hair back out of his eyes. "I'm here, Bo… I'm here…"

THUD THUD THUD

Luke bit back tears as Bo's arms continued to flail.

"The ambulance is comin'" began Daisy, holding back a sob. "What's wrong, Uncle Jesse?"

Jesse shook his head, refusing to answer. He knew the best thing to do right now was to stay calm and that if Daisy saw Bo in the state he was in, she would be anything but. "Daisy, go pack a bag for Bo an' have it ready t' take t' the hospital."

Daisy nodded and went obediently to the boys' room. Something had to be seriously wrong for them to not let her see Bo. Her mind raced with unanswered questions and horrifying scenarios, causing the girl to flat-out sob as she packed Bo's things.

Ya know I hate t' see a pretty girl cry, 'specially when it's Daisy…

"What's wrong with him, Uncle Jesse?" choked Luke, carefully moving Bo's twitching legs aside to make room for the old man to get through the doorway.

Jesse too, knelt on the floor beside Bo. He was about to take Bo's now slightly twitching hand in his own when suddenly, it jerked out, hitting Luke's knee.

Jesse carefully put his calloused hand on Bo's cheek, feeling how tight his jaw was. "I- I dunno, Luke, but I…I think he's havin' some type of seizure…

Uh-oh…

Luke and Jesse were kneeling beside Bo, talking soothingly to him when the ambulance arrived. Daisy showed the paramedics in to the bathroom and stood horrified as she caught a glimpse of Bo stiff on the floor except for the occasional fling of an arm or jerk of a leg.

Her hand flew to her mouth. "Uncle Jesse!" Jesse quickly left Bo in the hands of the medics and Luke, who he knew would not leave his side unless forced to.

"Sit down there, Daisy," said Jesse, leading her to a chair. Daisy latched onto her uncle, crying. "Uncle Jesse! What's happenin'? What's wrong with him!"

Jesse rubbed her back in small circles. "I wish I knew, girl… really wish I knew."

He watched as Bo was carried off on a stretcher to the ambulance, Luke right beside him.

"Uh, sir… you can't come… "began the paramedic.

Jesse led Daisy to the truck and closed the door behind her, not bothering to keep it open for Luke, knowing already howthepending argument between Luke and the paramedic would end. If his nephew wanted something, he'd have it, come Hell or high water. Jesse got in the driver's side and couldn't help smiling slightly as Luke ignored the man's words and climbed in beside Bo.

"Looks like I am…"

"Sir…"

Luke trembled with anger. "Look… I ain't leavin, so do yer job and get us t' the hospital!" He took Bo's trembling hand in his own, struggling not to cry and getting angrier with each passing second.

The paramedic sghed, climbing in after him and pulling the doors closed.

Sirens sounded over the roar of the engine. Faintly, Bo heard voices murmuring around him. Feeling as if he had just gotten into a fight with a hammer and lost badly, Bo moaned turning his head.

"I think he's comin' round now..."murmured Luke.

Theman next to himnodded in agreement. "A shot of valium usually brings them out of it pretty well. Can ya hear me, son?"

Bo's eyes snapped open, darting wildly around, not recognizing where he was and terrified when he realized he could only move his head.

Luke laid a comforting hand on top of his cousin's. "Easy now… Ya strapped down… so ya won't get hurt…" He felt the tears coming to his eyes and willed them not to fall.

Bo looked at the two men, his eyes full of fear.

"Now son, I want ya t' answer some questions for me," began the paramedic. "Do ya know what day it is today?" Bo thought a moment and mumbled "Monday?" aggravated at not only the disappointed look on Luke's face, but also the fact that it hurt his mouth to talk.

The man took a few notes. "No, son. It's Friday… a special Friday… ya know what holiday it is?"

Bo tried to shake his head, but decided that wasn't the best idea when a shooting pain coursed from the back of his head to the front.

"How old are ya?"

Finally, an answer he knew! "18."

The medic looked at Luke who sadly shook his head. "He'll be 20 in April."

The man jotted down some more notes. "What's your name son?"

Bo looked at him blankly.

"Son, what's your name?"

"My name's uh…uh…" Bo looked at Luke and the paramedic, his lip quivering. "I… I don't know."

Bo never was good at tests, but I'm gettin' mighty worried here...

You know what to do….
