She's been admitted. The doctor's were looking at her, Logan and Troy paced anxiously around the waiting room. Logan had called Gabriella, she was frantically on her way. Sophie was coming too. Troy ran a hand through his hair, scratching the back of his neck, "Emily Bolton." A doctor called, the two stopped pacing looking at the stocky man. "Yes." they said at the same time, Logan spoke first, "how is my sister?" The doctor sighed, looking down at the clipboard in his hand, "she has suffered slight trauma to her skull and has scarred vaginal tissue...also, the baby is gone."
Troy sighed looking at logan, but speaking towards the doctor, "Alright, when can we see her?" The doctor sighed, "only one person can see her right now." and he left with that. Logan looked at his father, "Dad?" he sighed, "I need to see her first, if your mom and sister get here, come get me." Logan nodded as Troy walked towards Emily's Room. he creaked open the door to find his daughter laying down and looking up at him, "Hi.." she croaked out. he sighed, "hey baby, how you feeling?" she sighed, "Sick.. tired, hurting.. do you hate me?" she looked at him.
"No!" he said, grabbing her hand. "Baby girl, I-I could never hate you-" "but-but...what you said...about the baby and-" her eyes suddenly went wide, her lips trembled. "My baby..." she muttered, Troy sighed, squeezing her hand. "Bab-" "MY BABY!" She screamed, "Keith hurt my baby!"
Troy shushed, "Hey...hey baby girl, it's okay..." tears stung Emily's eyes as her head thrashed on the pillow. "My baby...my baby..." "Sh.." he stroked her hair soothingly, "I know...everything's fine, it's all right." She sobbed, squeezing her father's hand, "Daddy...m-my ba-baby." he shushed her again, stroking her hair."I know...I know..." "Can you hold me please?"
Troy sat beside her pulling her close, and storking her hair, she began sobbing into his chest. Troy kissed her forhead, "You know, when your young, it feels like the end of the world." he ran a hand through his hair as he looked down at her, she sniffled, tears streaming down her cheeks, "it's not?" he shook his head, "It's only the beginning." Emily sniffled, "Daddy, Am I aloud to see Zac?" Troy sighed, "Emy, you can marry him." Emily giggled, he smiled tilting her chin, "I accept him." Emily smiled, "Really." he nodded, "His good for you, I know his gonna take care of you." she smiled hugging him, "Thank you daddy.. thank you so much. I love you." he smiled holding her close, "I love you too." she wiped her nose, "Daddy, how did you know Zac's dad?"
Troy sighed, wiping the tear residue from her eyes. "Emy, it's a long story." she giggled, "Daddy...in case you haven't noticed...I'm in a hospital bed-I have sometime." He chuckled, kissing her forehead. "Yeah I guess you do..." she looked at him expectantly, he sighed again. "i knew-know him because I...I was in the wrong crowd when I was younger...and he was too; Emily, I know I've been in a ..bad mood-" "horrible mood." she muttered, he chuckled, "yeah, but it's because I didn't want you to go down the same path that I did." Emily smiled, "there's one thing good that came from that path." His eyes narrowed in curiosity, "what?" she kissed his cheek, "you met mom."
Troy smiled, "She is the best thing that's ever happened to me, besides you three kids." Emily layed against him, "I love you dad, even though sometimes I don't act like it." he kissed her forhead, rubbing her shoulders, "Emy, I love you too.. your my little girl, and sometimes, I just want you to stay that way." he sucked in a breath, "But I have to face it, your growing up.. and I have to respect that." she smiled, "But I am not proud of what you did with zac.. I don't approve of it, but I have to accept it." Emily sighed, "I know dad, I'm sorry, I just.. we love each other, and I just.. I thought it was the right time.. are you mad cause I did it? or mad cause I got pregnant out of it?"
"I'm not mad..." he said softly, she looked at him, "real-" "I'm a little disappointed that you didn't wait...but not mad." She bit her lip, "You looked mad...when I told you-" "You try being a father who found out his little girl had sex and got pregnant...it's not easy to accept nor is it easy to live with." She sighed, nesting her head onto his shoulder, "thank you...for saving me." Troy bit his lip, kissing the top of her head. "Your welcome...I will always be there."

She bit her lip, "I'm sorry but I don't-" "know me?" Zac snapped, standing up quickly. "Of course you wouldn't you left me when I was 5." The woman sighed, "Look you have me con-" "I know who you are! Don't tell me that I don't!" Zac snapped, leaning over her, his eyes dark-like his fathers. She gulped, "Look...I'm sorry that you-" "I don't want an apology."
The Woman stood up, and was about to speak till she gasped, "Z-Zachary?" he bit his lip, "Yeah, remember, your son!" The woman bit her lip like he did moments before, "H-how are you? how's your father?" damn, he didn't wanna talk about that, especially the mother that left him. "I..you don't care! you left!" The woman looked at him, "Zac-" "Just forget it! I gotta go!.. Thanks for nothing."

Zac arrived at the hospital, walking towards emily's room not caring who tried to stop him. he knocked gently on the door. Troy slipped out of the bed, and opened the door. he sighed, "Zac.. what are you doing here-" he sniffled, Troy could tell his been crying, "I..I'm not here to start trouble, I.I just came to see Emily..and then I'm out." Emily saw Zac from her bed, "Zac!" he smiled sadly walking over to her, and hugging her gently. "hey.. how are you feeling?" she smiled, Troy could see the spark in her eyes when Zac walked into the room. "I'm fine now, thank you.. you.. and my dad saved me." Zac sighed, "Your dad's the one who saved you emy..I..Just helped a little bit." Troy sighed, "No, I just got her to the hospital, you saved her life... that took a lot of guts."
Zac sighed looking at Troy, "I'm sorry.. about everything." Troy bit his lip, Emily sighed, "Zac.. have you been crying?" Zac bit his lip, sniffling back up his tears, "No..No I haven't.. I just.. I have a lot of things to do...I just wanted to stop by and say goodbye." Emily looked at him, "goodbye?" he nodded, "yeah, umm I know that if it wasen't for me, you wouldn't be here, so I..I just think your better off without me emy..I'm sorry." she looked down at her hands, tears forming in her eyes, "Please...just go zac."
He bit his lip, leaning over and kissing her forehead, his lips lingering for a second longer than they were supposed to. "Emy...I-I'll never forget you...I give you my word." Emily sniffled, closing her eyes and inhaling softly Zac's musk cologne. "Zac...please...don't make this-" "harder than it needs to be." He finished, he turned his head to look over his shoulder, at Troy, "Sir, mind if I have a moment...with Emily." Troy nodded, "Sure..I'll uh...see if Gabriella and Sophie are here yet." Zac nodded his thanks, turning back to Emily, and sitting on the edge of the bed. "Emily...I found out that...my dad passed away this morning, I'm sorry but...I don't feel like this is my place anymore-I was taking care of him, and I don't have anyone to take care of anymo-" "me." Emily interrupted.
Zac tilted his head, "What?" Emily bit her lip, she knew she'd be lying, but...it was the only way for Zac to stay. "Zac...what if-what if I told you that..there's more than me in this hospital." Zac looked at her confusion, "what do you-" "I'm pregnant." she said, knowing full well that the baby was gone, but she could try again.
Zac looked at her, "But.. how-" she crashed her lips onto his, and kissed him passionately. "I love you, please don't leave me and this baby." he sighed, "I can't.. I won't leave you, I'll be here for you. alright?" she smiled nodding kissing his lips. Troy walked back in, "Hey Emy, your mom and sophie are here." she smiled, "Guess what daddy!" he raised a brow, "Hm?" "Zac's not leaving." Troy smiled, "Really? that's great." Zac sighed, "yeah, since she's having the baby, I don't want to leave her..." he smiled at her.
Troy frowned, "the baby?" Zac nodded, still smiling, "I was raised with morals-uh well I grew up with them..." Troy nodded, "B-" "But you can't wait for me to have the baby right dad?" her eyes beggin Troy not to say anything, Troy gulped, "uhh...yeah...totally. Em, your mom and sister want to see you...I told them a person at a time-" Emily smiled, "okay..." she turned back to Zac, "I love you." she whispered, Zac smiled kissing her lips and resting his hand on her stomach, "I love you too...both of you." Emily was screaming on the inside. She had to get pregnant and fast, she'd ask her mother for seduction techniques, cause she'd need them.
Zac walked out, Troy bit his lip until he was alone with his daughter. "Are you insane?" Emily bit her lip, shaking her head, "I can't tell him...I'm-I'm sorry...but you saw his face, he loves this baby.." her voice was quiet, Troy sighed, running his hand down his face. "Emma," he said, using her nickname, "look...you can't lie to him-" "I can get pregnant again...I can." Troy shook his head, "that's not a solution.."
Emily sighed, "I..I just can't let him leave me dad..I...I just can't..." Troy sighed going to his daughter and rubbing her back. "Baby girl, I know you love him, and want him to stay with you, but.. he has to do what he has to do.." she bit her lip, "Fine..then...just tell him to go." Troy sighed, "baby, don't-" she shook her head, "No, your just being ungrateful dad! you want me as your little baby forever!" he sighed, "Not forever... just until your my age." he chuckled, Emily looked at him seriously, he sighed, "Right, No joking.." she sighed biting her lip, "what would you do if mom was going to leave you?"
Troy sighed, cupping her cheek, "Emily...I just want you to have a full life...do what you want to do before you settle down with kids." She jutted out her lower lip, crossing her arms over her chest and turning her head away. Troy sighed, "I'll get your mother-or do want to speak to your sister first-" "Mom, I want to talk to mom." Troy nodded, kissing her forehead and walking out of the room and going into the hospital waiting room where Gabriella and Sophie was waiting.
Gabriella stood up out of her seat, "How is she? is she okay? is she hurt? how is my baby-" Troy sighed hugging her, "She's fine.. but she needs to talk to you." Gabriella nodded going to the room. Sophie looked at him, "Is she okay?" Troy sighed wrapping an arm around her shoulder, kissing her forhead, "I have no idea baby girl.." When Gabriella walked into the room, she rushed to Emily's side and hugged her, "Hey, how you feeling?" she asked. Emily sighed, "Mom, what would dad do if you left him?" Gabriella smiled, "he'd probably go crazy." both of them started giggling, "I just want..I want zac to know that I..I love him.. and I don't want him to leave." Gabriella sighed, "let me guess, you made up you were pregnant?" Emily nodded, Gabriella sighed, "baby, tell him the truth, tell him you don't want him to leave."
Emily looked down at her folded hands in her lap, "If it just was that easy." she grabbed her chin, "Baby, if he really loves you, he won't leave you.. he'll stay right here...with us." Emily smiled, "You mean, he can come live with us?" Gabriella nodded, "That boy needs all the love he can get baby girl.." she hugged her mother, "Thank you so much.. momma..I love you.." she held her daughter, "I love you too.." she pulled away looking at her, "want me to send zac in?" Emily nodded, her mother went out, and a few minutes later, Zac came back in, "hey, your mom said you-" Emily sighed, "Zac I'm not pregnant-" "but you said-" "I lied..I wanted you to stay..and.. I.. please don't be mad at me..I just.. I love you so much.. i..I didn't want you to leave."
Zac sighed, "Em, I..." Emily sighed, crossing her arms and rubbing her skin furiously. Zac sighed, "I'm not mad..but, disappointed is a good word for what I feel right now." Emily looked at him, "Disappointed?" she repeated in question, he nodded, lifting her chin with his finger. "That you lied...lied to my face, I'm sorry but...I've been lied to before...It gets tiring-is getting tiring." Emily sniffled, "What-what are you saying?"
before Zac could open his mouth to speak, the doors to the hospital room came open and two police officers came in and immediately grabbed Zac by the shoulders and pinned him to the wall before they cuffed him, "Ow..." Zac said, when the handcuffs went 'click''. Emily looked at the scene, "Wh-what's going on?" her question went unanswered, the skinny cop with red hair and a gruff voice read Zachis rights and also said, "Zac Barker-you're under arrest for the murder of Keith Roberts." Emily's eyes widened, "WHAT?" Zac groaned painfully when the cops pulled him hard, Emily stammered, kicking the covers off the hospital bed, Zac looked at her-by now the whole Bolton clan had run into the room.
Troy looked from Zac to Emily then the cops then back to Zac, "what the hell is going on here?" The chubby-ironically, his title was 'officer chubbington'- cop scoffed, "what's going on? We were sent to the school after an inside 911 call came in to the station saying the heard gunshots fired in a class room, well...we found the gun Identified for prints-we got this JD on our list..." Zac shook, trying to wrench free of the handcuffs, but they were heavy duty. Emily sniffled, Gabriella went to her daughter, holding her tight. Troy glared, "what makes you think he-" "The body of a 'Keith Roberts' was there and a bullet wound to his stomach had bled out...we drew our conclusions and came up with our answers. he's under arrest." the skinny, red-haired cop said pulling Zac out of the room, Emily yelled, "ZAC!" Zac didn't fight, but he found it ironic, Troy at the beginning thought he'd follow his father's foot steps and end up in jail.
