Jaden's POV
"Okay what are we going to do today?" Syrus asked as we rounded the corner toward the park. The gang and I were wondering aimlessly around the city; we were trying to figure out what to do for the day. I shrugged.
"I dunno; we've pretty much done everything Ochi City has to offer right now," I said. Atticus looked at me confused.
"What do you mean by 'right now'? (1)" he questioned. I turned to smile at him.
"Well, there's the fair in July and then the big movie festival a week after that. And then there is the free day at the amusement park," I began listing. His eyes grew wide. He pulled out his cell phone and started typing things in it.
"Oh, I'll have to make plans for us to do those days!" Alexis laughed. I sighed and rolled my eyes. Chazz sighed; it sounded very annoyed.
"Great, so we know what we're going to do weeks from now, but what are we going to do today?" he demanded annoyed. Blair smacked him in the arm. He growled at her but she just ignored him. I opened my mouth to offer an idea when someone's crying interrupted me. The gang and I stopped and looked in the direction of the crying. Running down the other side of the street towards us was a girl, about fifteen. She had long blonde hair, which bounced behind her as she ran. Tears were streaming down her face and staining her pink blouse. Her tight blue jean kapris were faded and her white flip-flops slapped against the bottoms of her feet. I was amazed they didn't just fall off. However, I was more shocked by who the girl was.
"SAM!" I yelled in shock. Alexis looked up at me in shock and Zane looked over shoulder at me, his eyes wide in shock. Sam stopped in her tracks and looked across the street for the person who called her name. Her eyes were blood shot from her tears but they grew wide when she saw me.
"Jaden?" she croaked. I dropped Alexis' hand and stepped around the gang. Sam immediately bolted across the street toward me, without looking both ways. The car that was coming down the street screeched to a halt and honked at her, the driver looked annoyed. She didn't care; she just ran over to me and threw herself on me. She buried her face in my chest and cried. Her hands clutched the fabric of my red muscle shirt. "Oh, Jaden!" she cried, though it sounded muffled through my shirt. The gang looked at me with quirked eyebrows and Alexis walked over to my side, looking at Sam with concern in her eyes. I wrapped my arms securely around Sam's shaking frame.
"Shush, Sam, everything's going to be okay," I assured her in a soothing tone. She shook her head against my chest rapidly.
"No! Everything isn't going to be okay! NOTHING IS OKAY!" she yelled. I pulled her back away from chest and looked her in the eye.
"Sam, what's wrong?" I asked, getting anxious. She took a deep breath and tried to tell me but began crying extremely hard. I could only make out three words: Stairs. Mom. Hospital.
"What did she say?" Syrus asked. I ignored him and tried to figure out what she was trying to convey. I blinked as the words slowly pieced themselves together. I squeezed her shoulders.
"Sam, is Aunt May in the hospital?" I asked. She nodded slowly and then reached out, wrapping her arms around me, burring her face in my chest. I placed my hand on her head and turned to look at Alexis with wide eyes.
"How far is the hospital?" she asked.
"Just a mile once we round the corner up there," I answered. She nodded and then quickly flicked her eyes in Sam's direction. I looked down at her and then sighed. I dropped my hands to her hips and gripped it securely. I then flipped her over my shoulders and onto my back. She squeaked in surprise and as soon as she was pressed against my back, she locked her legs around my chest and her arms around my neck.
"How the hell did you do that?" Chazz demanded. I ignored him and secured my arms around Sam's legs. Once I had a good grip on her, I started running toward the hospital. Alexis caught right up to me.
"Jay!" Syrus yelled. I heard them running after me.
"Wait up, Serge!" Hassleberry yelled. I rounded the corner and immediately caught site of the hospital. I took a big gulp of air and then took off in a full blown sprint.
"Damn little speed demon," Chazz muttered behind me.

I nearly collapsed outside the hospital. The gang reached me after a second. We were all breathing raggedly. Sam slipped off my back and landed on the ground. I braced myself against my knees as I tried to steady my breathing and slow the beating of my heart. After a few moments I finally straightened out. I smoothed out my shirt and started walking toward the doors. Sam ran right up to me and wrapped her arms around my arm; she was shaking and still crying. Alexis walked up to the other side. The gang was right behind me. I pushed open the doors and was hit with the cool air conditioning, but that didn't matter. What did matter is what I saw.
My entire family was in the hospital waiting room. Except for Aunt May. Uncle Mike was pacing back and forth, gnawing on his thumb nail. The triplets were sitting on the ground watching him closely. Brad was sitting in a arm chair with his head buried in his hands. Kara and Aurora were sitting on the couch with Robby and Susan. Mia and Zoey were sitting on Mom's lap; she was in another arm chair next to Aunt Shelbi. Aunt Shelbi was holding Tommy. Uncle Jake was sitting on the ground leaning up against Aunt Shelbi's chair. Dad was gone. When the door opened, everyone looked over at us. Uncle Mike stopped in his tracks.
"Baby girl!" he said. Sam released my arm and ran over to him. He wrapped his arms securely around her, holding her close. Mom slid Mia and Zoey off her lap and walked over to me.
"How…," she began to ask. I cut her off.
"Sam ran into us." Mom nodded. She pulled out her cell phone and walked past me.
"I have to call Chris now; he went out looking for Sam as soon as she ran out," she said. I nodded. She stepped out the door. I walked over to the chair Mom was just sitting in and sat down. Mia and Zoey climbed into my lap. Alexis came over and sat down on the arm of the chair. I looked over at Aunt Shelbi.
"What happened?" I asked. She looked at me. She took a deep breath; it was unsteady.
"May fell down the stairs and when Sam tried to get her up…she wouldn't move. She wouldn't even wake up. Sam called Mike and he ran home. He brought her here and we've been here for the last hour." I nodded my head gravely, biting my lip. Alexis reached out for my hand and took it, squeezing it.
"What's going on?" Zane asked. I looked up at him; the rest of the gang was around the chair. They were looking at me perplexed.
"Aunt May fell down the stairs," I answered. Zane nodded, "She was almost nine months pregnant," I elaborated. His eyes widened quickly and he gasped, as did the rest of the gang.
"Wait, your Aunt May?" Hassleberry said. I nodded. Before they could ask any more, I slid Mia and Zoey off my lap and stood up. I walked over to Mike and Sam. He was still holding her closely. I touched his arm and he looked at me. He looked down at Sam and sighed. He dropped his arms and Sam walked over to my side. I helped her over to the couch. Susan and Robby jumped off. I set her down and knelled down in front of her.
"You okay?" She shook her head. Tears were still running down her cheeks. I reached out and whipped them away. She took a ragged breath and choked back a sob. Alexis came over and sat down next to her. I stood up and left Sam with Alexis. I noticed Zane walk over and sit down next to her also. I walked over to the triplets and sat down next to Kyle.
"How are you three doing?" I asked. They turned to look at me.
"Mom fell down the stairs," Kyle said. I nodded.
"She was almost nine months pregnant," Tyler said. I nodded again.
"Will she be okay?" Skyler asked. I bit my lip.
"I don't know guys, I just don't know," I answered. They all nodded slowly.
"We don't know either," they all said quietly. I reached out and pulled them all against me. They held onto me as best they could and I sighed. The door to the hospital opened back up and Mom and Dad walked in. Dad saw Sam and Alexis and the rest of my friends. He looked over at me. He just sighed and sat back down in the chair I was just in. Mia and Zoey crawled into his lap. They were kinda lucky; they had no idea what was going on.
"What's going on here!?" Chazz demanded. Everyone looked at him. Blair reached up and smacked his head hard. He jolted forward slightly and then turned back to glare at her.
"I'll make this simple, Chazz; this is my family and right now my aunt is in the emergency room. So it would be very cool if you could just zip your lips," I said. Chazz and everyone looked at me in shock. I couldn't blame them either. Normally I was a really happy-go-lucky guy but not now. Not when my family is in pain. That's when I get serious.
"Oh." was Chazz's genius response. I sighed and pulled the triplets away from me. I stood up and dusted off my clothes.
"This is your entire family?" Syrus asked. I nodded.
"Minus my grandma and grandpa," I amended.
"Mom and Dad will be here soon," Jake said. I nodded. I looked back at the gang. Zane was helping Alexis try and console Sam. Syrus and Hassleberry were sitting on the ground talking with Robby and Susan. Chazz and Blair even made themselves comfortable leaning against a wall by the couch. Bastion was talking with Mom. Atticus was talking to Dad. Mindy and Jasmine were talking to Jake. Aster was talking to Shelbi. Crowler was the only one who remained a good distance away from my family.
"You're all going to stay here?" Crowler asked. The gang collectively nodded. He snapped his teeth together and turned around quickly. "Well you have fun with that; I have more important things to do with my time than spend time with your family, Slacker." He left the hospital without another word. I ground my teeth together to prevent myself from saying anything I would want to but shouldn't. Just as he left, Phil and Sophie walked into the hospital. They saw us and ran over to us.
"How is she? Is everything okay?" Sophie asked. Mom shook her head.
"We don't know. They're still looking at everything," she explained. They nodded. Phil looked over and saw Sam. He walked over to her.
"Oh, my poor Baby Girl!" he exclaimed. He walked over and hugged her tightly. Sophie walked over to the triplets. She hugged each of them tightly. I sighed and walked over to the couch to sit next to Alexis. She took my hand and squeezed it. Phil and Sophie went over to sit on the love seat. Aurora was leaning up against Kara; her eyes were puffy and red. I could tell she had been crying. Suddenly, the door to the emergency room opened up.
"Mr. Yuki?" he asked. Phil, Jake, Mike, and Dad all stood up. The doctor sweat dropped. "Mr. Mike Yuki?" Jake, Phil, and Dad sat back down. Mom smacked Dad; Shelbi smacked Jake, and Sophie smacked Phil. Mike walked over to the doctor.
"What is it, doc? How's my wife?" he asked. Sam was looking intently at the doctor. The doctor sighed and untied his face mask.
"Actually, Mr. Yuki, I have bad news."

1: Okay, remember, the gang still thinks that Jaden spent a summer with his friend. They still have no idea that he actually lives in Ochi City; only Zane and Alexis do.
