Nobody Knows
Chapter 9
For Val, Tyler and Hank the whole thing seemed to happen in slow motion. When they heard the screeching of tires they all turned to look and saw a brown car go speeding down the street right at Jamie.
"Jamie! Look out!" Val tried to yell out a warning but it was too late.
The other teens watched in horror as the car plowed into Jamie. Jamie landed on the cars windshield before flying up in the air and landing on the concrete with a sickening thud. The car never even slowed down. For a moment time seemed to stand still. Then Hank jumped into action.
"Tyler get the equipment, Val call it in!" he yelled as he made his way over to Jamie's still from. Jamie was laying on his left side unconscious with blood running down his face. Hank was in shock. He couldn't believe it. He had to pull it together, Jamie needed him. A moment later Tyler and Val joined him.
"Okay. Val get a collar on him, Tyler call into the hospital and get an order for an IV. I'll start bandaging his cuts." The trio went right to work.
Once Val had the collar on Jamie, they quickly rolled him flat on his back onto a backboard. It was obvious that his left leg was broken and from the amount of breathing trouble Jamie was having, it was a pretty safe bet that he had a few broken ribs. It was what they couldn't see that worried them. From Jamie's blood pressure they could tell that there was some sort of internal injury.
To the teens it seemed like hours but in reality is was only a half hour until they had Jamie ready for transport. They loaded Jamie into the ambulance and Hank took off towards to hospital. He knew Jamie didn't have a lot of time. He was hurt badly; he just hoped that what they had done on seen would be enough to get Jamie to the hospital.
Val sat in the back holing onto Jamie's hand. She had been on the team for almost two years now, and she had seen a lot. They had even lost a few patients, but seeing a friend get hurt was something Val had never experienced before and she prayed she wouldn't have to ever again.
Tyler just stared out the small windows in the back of the ambulance. He desperately wanted to do something, but they had already done what they could. It was up to the hospital and Jamie now. He and Jamie had never fully gotten along but he never wanted to see him get hurt. When Jamie first joined the team Tyler hadn't wanted him there, but now he considered Jamie a friend. Tyler silently wondered if he would ever get to tell him that.
