Brook POV
This is the best sight I could've seen. Jack and Sam back together. It was better than seeing Declan with my baby. Wait did I just see Jack here; he's suppose to be in Charlotte with his parents.
"Jack, what are you doing here?" I ask
"Visiting my friend after her heart attack," he answers
"I know that, but what are you in Tree Hill, you live in Charlotte," I say
"Yeah I know, my mom let me come up here for the weekend to check in with my best friend," he says
"Oh okay, I'll leave you two. I'm going out to grab something to eat, any preferences?" I ask
"Chili cheese fries and 2 burgers," they say in unison
"Okay, nice to see you two back together, don't get into trouble," I smile and head to the parking lot
Sam POV
"So tell me about this boyfriend of yours," Jacks says
"Well he's sweet and adorable, dark and mysterious," I say
"Cool, sounds like every girls' dream guy," he says emotionless
"Yeah he's something," I say while rolling my eyes
"I'm gonna go to the bathroom really quick," he says and gets up to leave
Jack POV
I can't believe she has a boyfriend and didn't even tell me. Why did I have to wait so long to see her, why didn't I call? I walk over to the nurses' station to ask where the bathroom is when I overhear a few of them discussing Sam.
"Yeah I can't believe she won't press charges," one says
"Yeah me either, I say the guy who did this to her deserves to be punished," another says
"Did you see all those bruises?" another asks
"Yeah, he did a number on her and some of them were old, so it might have been going on for a while," another responds
"Excuse me ma'am, who are you guys discussing?" I asked curiously
"A patient by the name of Samantha Walker," she answers
"What happened to her, I'm her best friend and we've been separated for a while," I say
"Well apparently she has a bunch of bruises and cuts and even a burn mark. She had a miscarriage 2 weeks ago. I think it's been going on for a while since most of the bruises are old and new," she says
"Okay, thanks," I say trying to hold back my rage. I go to Sam's room to ask her for the truth
"Why didn't you tell me?" I say angrily
"Tell you what?" she asks
"That your boyfriend is a little bitch who deserves to get the crap beaten out of him," I yell
"I don't know what you're talking about," she says
"Oh so you don't know how you got all those bruises on you and the busted lip and the burn mark, and what about the miscarriage?" I ask
Brook POV
As I was walking back to the room I could hear yelling between Jack and Sam
"Oh so you don't know how you got all those bruises on you and the busted lip and burn mark, and what about the miscarriage?" he asks
"Who told you about the burn mark and miscarriage?" she asks
"That doesn't matter, but what does matter is that he's gonna get what coming to him very soon," Jack says
"What are you going to do to him," she cries
"Nothing he didn't do to you, why didn't you tell me this was going on?" he asks
"Please don't hurt him!" Sam yells and I rush into the room
"What's going on?" I ask
"Nothing," Jack says venomously
"It didn't sound like nothing and why is my daughter crying?" I ask
"I'm leaving to take care of some things, I'll see you later Sam," Jack says a little calmer
"No please don't hurt him Jack, PLEASE!" she yells while he exits
"What's going on baby?" I ask
"He's going to beat up Declan," she cries
Jack POV
I can't wait to get my hands on that punk. I can't believe that he would do that to Sam, my Sam. I try to call my old buddy from school.
"Hey, what's up bro?" he asks
"Nothing, but I need a favor to ask," I say
"Sure what's up," he says
"Do you know who Sam's boyfriend is?" I ask nervously
"Yeah his name is Declan," he answers
"Do you know where he is or where he lives?" I ask
"Yeah he lives on the 23 Olive Street," he says and I knew exactly where it was
I rush to get to his place and thankfully I see a car parked. I knock on the door.
"Hello, can I help you?" a guy says
"Yeah I'm looking for Declan," I say
"Do you know him?" he asks
"No, I'm here for a mutual friend," I say
"And who would that be?" he asks
"Samantha Walker," I reply
"Oh in that case I'm Declan," he says and I punch him square in the face. He falls back onto the floor and I get on top of him and continue punching him in a blind rage
"You motherfucker, how could you do that to her? She ended up in the hospital because of you and now you're gonna end up in the hospital because of me!" I yell before I pick up his head and slam it against the floor.
"Hello 911 what's your emergency?" the operator asks
"I need an ambulance to 23 Olive Street in Tree Hill," I say
"What happened?" she asked
"I beat a guy up really bad and he needs medical attention," I say
"Help is on the way," she says and we are disconnected
Instead of waiting around, I head back to the hospital and write a note to the police that I'll be there by the name of Jack Daniels. I park my car in the garage and head up to the room where Brooke is talking to Sam.
"Oh my God Jack, what did you do?" Sam cries
"I did what I told you I was going to do. I called the police and had an ambulance pick him up and wrote a note to the police where I was. I just wanted to see you before they take me away," I say
"Is he alright?" she asked which pushed me over the edge
"What is wrong with you!" I yell and punch the wall
"Nothing," she says
"Do you even know what he did to you, I don't know why you're so concerned over him," I say
"Just like you were concerned for your brother every time I wanted to call the police for him hitting you and you refused," she retorts which took me by surprise since X was a touchy topic for the both of us
"That was a low blow and you know it, besides he was my brother and I needed him, it's different because I was able to protect myself," I respond
"What because I'm a girl I can't fight back. Huh Jack?" she asks
Brook POV
I watch as this argument unfolds.
"What because I'm a girl and I can't fight back. Huh Jack?" she asks
"No, but he's much stronger and took advantage of you, plus X provided for me I lived with him and depended on him. What has this guy done for you besides give you black eyes and burn marks?" he asks
"I tried to fight back!" she cries and Jack motions towards her and she sees the full extent of the damage done tonight
"I know," he said softly
"Oh my God Jack, your hand is swollen it might be broken and who's blood is that?" she asks
"His I guess," he answers and she pats down on his stomach to make sure when his face grimaces. "Oww"
"What? It hurts right there?" Sam asks as she presses down on the same area
"Yeah," he answers and she lifts his shirt and it exposes a stab wound
"Where did that come from?" Sam asks
"I don't know I guess he got a stab at me when I was on top of him, I didn't really notice until now," he says
"Well you need to get treated by a doctor," I say and I press the button for a nurse to come
"Hi, is anything wrong in here?" she asks
"Yes my friend Jack is injured, can you take care of him?" I ask
"Sure come with me sir," she motions for Jack to follow
"Mom, can you make sure Jack is alright," she asks
"Sure sweetie I'll be right back
Third Person POV
The nurse set Jack up in an emergency room and told him to remove all clothing. I stepped out for that moment until she called me in. She called for a doctor to come check out his stab wound.
"Sir, can you tell me how you got this stab wound?" the doctor asks
"Well I got into a fight and I didn't notice he even stabbed me," he answers
"Yeah, well it doesn't look good, it could have an infection depending on…" the doctor stopped when he noticed that Jack was unconscious and blood was pouring from the wound. He called for emergency surgery and rushed him to an OR. A nurse told Brooke she'd tell her when there was any new information, but said it didn't look good. It was hours later when the nurse came out of the OR.
"How is he doing?" Brooke asked
"He's in a coma, he lost too much blood. The knife hit a major organ, the liver. Other injuries are a broken hand and wrist." The nurse says
"Will he wake up?" Brooke asks
"It's hard to tell, but most likely no, he lost way too much blood and he's on the transplant list. He'll need a new liver since the last one was severely lacerated." She answered
Brooke walked back into Sam's room where she was once sleep, but awoke to Brooke's footsteps
"How is he mom?" she asks
"He isn't too good," Brooke answers
"What's wrong?" Sam asks
"Well all that blood on his shirt was his. Declan managed to not only break his hand and wrist but he stabbed his liver. He needs a liver transplant and he's in a coma because of too much blood loss," Brooke explains
"Oh my God mom, this is my entire fault," Sam cries until a nurse rushes in for Brooke
"Ma'am, you son is awake and he is asking for Sam," the nurse says
"Can I go mom?" Sam asks
"Yes you can, I on the other hand, need to get a hold of his parents," Brooke says
The nurse takes Sam to see Jack
"Why did you have to be an idiot and go beat him up?" Sam said
"Because I love you," Jack said in a low voice before he went unconscious again causing Sam to cry and hug him for dear life, praying that everything will be alright and he'd wake up.
