Feburary 20, 2015

9:45 a.m. Mountain Time

Amy sat in the kitchen, listening to her son yelling at his father, then she heard punches and kicks.

She grabbed her forehead and prayed to God that it would all stop, and it did, but in the worst way possible.

She looked down at Toby and Charlie when she heard Bob yell for her.

"Amy! Get in here now!" there was a panick in his voice, and she thought that Gabe had hit Diddlebock hard enough for him to go unconcious, she raced out of the kitchen after telling Charlie to watch Toby but her heart and feet stopped when she saw her son, laying in Bob's arms, not moving.

His skin was pale, he was barely breathing.

Bob laid him on the floor as Amy took over being a nurse.

"Bob, you need to call the ambulance, now." the tone in Amy's voice made Bob scared, he rushed into the kitchen and grabbed the wireless and called 911.

"Come on Gabe, wake up!" Amy knelt before him doing CPR on her son, tears were falling from her eyes as he wouldn't wake up.

She felt his pulse, his heart was racing, faster than she had ever felt a pulse before, and she was an emergency room nurse, she started to panick.

Amy kept doing CPR until she felt a cold hand on her shoulder, she turned around to look in a set of dark brown eyes.

"Amy, he's going to be okay, you have to calm down, alright?" Amy shuddered at the touch of his hand on her shoulder, he saw that it bothered her, so he pulled away.

Bob looked into her eyes, and saw how much she feared him, he looked down at his son, a pale body, eyes closed, and his chest barely moving.

Amy put her face in her hands as she started to cry, things were starting to get better, she had almost lost Gabe once, without even meeting him, she didn't want to lose him this time, she didn't know what to do as she stared down at her son.

Then she watched as Bob Diddlebock walked to the boy and sat next to him.

"Gabe, I know you can hear me, your mom is right next to you, she want's you to wake up! She's crying and she loves you, please Gabe, be strong, show your mother how much you love her..." Bob Diddlebocks words firm, like he was commanding him to wake up.

Amy was tense with the man so close to her, he was a monster,

he was now in her house, less than a foot away from her son.

Amy and Bob stared in disbelief as Gabe's eyes started to flutter open, he looked directly at his mother and smiled, "I love you, mom, I would never leave you."

Amy wrapped her arms around her son and layed him up against the back of the bright tourquoise couch.

Amy wiped away her tears and smiled at her son, she didn't know what she would do if she would lose him, but he still needed to go to the hospital to make sure he was okay.

Bob ran back into the room and smiled as he saw Gabe awake looking at his mother.

"The paramedics are going to be here in a few minutes, how did he wake up?"

"I-I heard somebody talking to me, saying mom was crying, and that I needed to wake up, I thought I was sleeping in my bed, and I wondered why would mom be crying this morning, I opened my eyes, and I saw mom right here." Gabe replied. He looked a little confused.

Teddy's cell phone rang as she looked at the caller I.D. "Mom" it read, she smiled and picked it up.

"Hey, mom!" her smile turned into a frown when she heard her mother's voice sounding like she had been crying, she had found out a few weeks ago that Gabe was not her biological brother, but her half brother. She didn't care she still treated him like he was her full brother, because she heard what his father did to her mother, and she wanted to find that man, and take a hammer to his head, and so did Spencer.

"What? Okay, we'll be right over!" Teddy jumped up from the couch as Spencer gave her a confused look.

"Gabe is in an ambulance on the way to the hospital, P.J. and Skylar are going to meet us at the house to watch the Toby and Charlie." Spencer's face turned to worry as he heard that Gabe was going to the hospital, he knew not to ask Teddy how, because she wanted to get to the house as soon as possible.

Spencer pulled their BMW behind P.J. and Skylar's Lexus in the drive in on the side of the house, Teddy ran in the front door that was unlocked like usual to see P.J. and Skylar playing with Toby, and charlie sitting in the striped chair reading a book.

She breathed in a sigh of relief as she sat down on the chair opposite of Charlie.

"What happened to Gabe?" she asked worried to death.

"Well, apparently, Diddlbock came here and mom passed out but then woke again. After Gabe punched Diddlebock three times and kicked him in the stomach repeatedly dad pulled him away and he just passed out in dad's arms!"

Teddy clenched her jaw at the sound of the man who hurt her mother, but then worry flooded back for her baby brother.

She didn't know what was going to happen, and she loved her brother no matter what, dooshbag dad, or not.

Gabe had passed out in the ambulance again.

This time they couldn't get him to wake up, and Amy was a mess.

Bob Duncan held on to Gabe's left hand, and Amy held onto his right. She hated seeing his pale limp body laying on a stretcher with a mask over his mouth, it made her sick to her stomach.

They both knew Gabe always had small heart problems from being premature, and his lungs grew normal by the time he was ten, but there were so many things that could be wrong with him, Amy couldn't take it.

If Amy was taking care of Gabe in the ER, and she didn't know him, she would really think he was dead, by the way his skin was paled, and his body just lay there limp.

She wanted to scream for her little boy to wake up, but she knew that wouldn't happen, she didn't know what to do with herself.

For what seemed like after two hours the ten minute trip ended and they got out of the ambulance and followed Gabe into the hospital.

Bob had wrapped his arm around Amy because they had forgotten to get their jackets, and the Denver air was chilly. Gabe was wheeled into a back room and Bob and Amy sat in the waiting room.

Amy cried for what seemed like forever before she stopped, then she looked up to see Diddlebock looking her in the eyes, his face had been cleaned up, and he had on a different shirt.

His hair was in a short haircut that Gabe had worn when he was younger, but somehow, that haircut looked good on him.

Bob felt Amy shudder, then looked up and understood why.

"Why are you here?" Bob asked gripping Amy, telling her he wouldn't let the man go near her, but Amy wasn't as afraid of him, and if he even tried to get her, Bob would squash him like a bug, for that matter, he was an exterminator.

"Gabe is my son, I'm not going to leave him in an emergency room, without his father, I may have been and ass to Amy, but I'm not going to leave Gabe." He said it very sternly and it made Amy nervous.

Amy looked down at her fingers, the hair on the back of her neck rose when she heard him call Gabe his, son. She always thought to Bob Duncan to be Gabe's father, he was the one who took him to the batting cages, the one who changed his diapers, and the one he called dad.

Bob Duncan clenched his fists after he called Gabe his son, the man was never there for him, he did nothing in the sort to raise him, he even thought that Bob Diddlebock didn't know he had a son until he showed up on the front doorstep to see Amy.

"He's not your son, you never raised him, you left Amy by herself with him!" Bob stood up to stand even with the man.

"Bob please-" Amy was interrupted by Diddlebock

"I might not have met him, but I'm his father. I came to apologize to Amy for the horrible thing I did, I am a monster to her, I destroyed her and left her three youngest children to not know their true mother, the wonderful woman that Amy Duncan really is. Smart, beautiful, funny, energetic,"Bob Diddlebock got lost in his thoughts as he described the woman that he loved, but could never have.

Amy blushed as he said those words about her, she didn't know she was that good to be around,

she still would never love him, or like him, at all, in that matter.

Bob interrupted Bob after about twenty adjectives in, "Okay! She gets it! Now, you can sit over there, but stay away from my wife!"

Just after he finished his sentence a doctor walked into the busy room.

"Gabriel Duncan?" Amy darted up, when she wanted to, she could be really fast.

"Dr. Karnagin?," a worried look passed across her face, but that ended when the doctor smiled at her.

"Amy, he's going to be fine, his heart was beating a little fast, we think he has Sinus Tachachardia, it's when his heart beats faster than it should, and when it gets out of control he can pass out, or go into a coma, whoever woke him did a good job,"

Amy made a short glance at Bob Diddlebock,

"The second time he passed out was because he was worried, and he hyperventalated. All he has to do is take a small pill every night, it's call a betablocker, and it slows his heart beat down a little, and controls it when it starts to go faster."

Amy smiled at the doctor, who she knew very well since she was a nurse at the hospital, "Is he okay then?" her smile faded just a tad, and the doctor could see a sign of worry in her eyes.

He smiled at her, "Gabe is awake, and he's been asking the nurses for you," Amy smiled.

"But we can only allow two people back at a time because the emergency room is very busy tonght, Amy be glad your off today!" Amy smiled then looked back at the Bobs.

Bob Duncan sighed, and did what Amy thought he would never do.

"Bob, go, your his father you deserve to see him first." Amy looked shocked then, not caring about Bob, busted through the emergency room doors.

Gabe Duncan stared up into the bright lights that were being thrown in his eyes. He'd ask for his mom about a million times, and this time the doctor smiled and replyed, "I'll go get her now"

Out of the corner of his eye, he could see the docter open the door to his room and disappear behind it, about two minutes later he could see the top of his mothers blonde curly hair flying around as she opened the door and smiled.

"Mom!" he yelled, he saw faint streaks of tears down her face,

She looked at him and smiled, that was only the third real smile she had given him, and there was nothing better to him than to see his mother's glorious smile, that could light any room, even if it was the Emergency Room.

His smile faded, when he saw the monster walk up behind his mother.

Amy noticed how his jaw clenched, and knew he was behind her.

"Get away from her, if you ever touch her, you'll be dead." Amy shuddered at the horrible tone in her son's voice, the one that had only been used on his father. The one that terrifyed her.

Amy could feel the presence closer behind her, and she started to get nervous, just like she did seventeen years ago.

In that second, Amy thought of something, in that horrible night,

Bob Diddlebock lied to her.

She had remembered in high school when they went to a party, they had beer and wine, of course she didn't take any, but someone asked Bob if he wanted one, and he said no. He apparently had bad kidneys and if he drank, he could get really sick and die.

Bob Diddlebock was not drunk the night he raped her,

he knew exactly what he was doing.

Feburary 20, 1998

11:45 p.m. Mountain Time

He had beaten her, and worst of all he had raped her.

Amy sat in the back of a truck, she didn't know where she was, she didn't know what to do.

For the last thirty minutes she had been crying, huddled in a ball, with only a bra and underwear on.

Bob had gotten out of the car, and locked the doors, she couldn't get out, all she wanted was to go home. At that thought the door flew open.

Bob Diddlebock crawled into the back, and sat across from her. His black eyes glared at her, as he tried to sound nice.

He reached out and stroked her hair, which was a mess, out of her eyes. He lifted her head up, so she was forced to look at him.

"Oh, Amy, I love you so much. But sadly, every dream has to end." He whispered to her, which made her flinch.

He pulled something dark out of his bag, and threw it to her. Amy could see the tag on it reading "Amy Duncan."

"Put your clothes on, now, was that so hard?" Bob smiled at her, he grabbed a ponytail holder from his wrist, crawled behind her and put her hair back in a high ponytail. Amy held her breath the entire thirty seconds. He walked around in front of her after she slipped her scrubs on, he kissed her on the lips, he held her arms down so she couldn' move.

After the long kiss was over, Amy started to cry again.

"Oh, my Ames! Come here!" he pulled her into a spine breaking hug. "Your hurting me!" she said quietly. Finally he pulled away, and looked deep into her eyes. Now, I'm going to drive you back to the hospital, if you tell anyone, I will kill your daughter," he counted on his fingers "your son, and, of course the easiest, your husband."

Amy cried as he kissed her one last time, before crawling to the front and starting the ignition.

Amy darted away from Bob in the hospital room. Fear in her eyes, looking at the horrible man, who she was crazy enough to forgive.

Gabe looked at his mother and saw the dead terror in her eyes, he sat up in his bed, "Mom, what's wrong?"

Bob Diddlebock started toward her, "Don't come near me! You weren't drunk that night! You knew damn well what you were doing!"

Bob's eyes turned dark, and Gabe started to get out of his bed.

"Your right, Amy, I wasn't drunk, I lost control, and that's how much I love you," he reached out to touch her, but she pulled back.

Bob Diddlebock was losing his control again, he couldn't help it, when ever he saw her face, he didn't know what he was doing, and he just lost it.

"Leave my mom alone!" Gabe lost his control. he got up and pulled Bob Diddlebock away from his mother, right before he was about to grab her.

Gabe pulled at his father until they both fell to the ground, grabbing each other's fists' away from their faces.

"Gabe, please stop-" right in the middle of her sentence, Bob grabbed Amy's ankle, and pulled her down.

Gabe watched like it was in slow motion, he saw his mother fall, he saw her land on her head,

and he saw the blood, as it started to cover her golden hair.

"Mom!" Gabe crawled over to his mother who wasn't moving.

Nurses walked into the room and stopped, their eyes wide.

Bob Diddlebock looked in terror at Amy, her face was expressionless, her eyes were closed and blood was covering her hair. He crawled away, aware of what he did, he had lost control again, and this time it was bad.

Bob Duncan sat in the waiting room, waiting for his wife and the idiot to walk through the doors, but then he heard yelling from the back, and it sounded like Gabe's voice. He raced through the door, and walked into the room that had fallen silent. He could hear somebody weeping.

He pushed past the nurses and stopped, and so did his heart.

He looked down at his wife, who was being held by a sobbing and bloody Gabe.

He never thought a person could bleed so much blood.
