August 5, 2013 (Lissy 7, Camryn 5, Gabriella &Troy 22)

The camera began to roll and up pops Troy's face onto the camera, "Good morning ladies and gentlemen it's about 6:30 in the morning Albuquerque time here," the camera turns back around and Troy begins to walk down the hallway and stops in front of the door that says 'Lissy & Camryn', he opens the door and was about to turn the light on in the girl room but instead heard Gabriella yell in a whisper, "Troy I swear to God if you wake them up I will kill you."

He chuckled and turned the camera towards is girlfriend, "Hi mommy," he spoke after he shut the girl's bedroom door.

"Troy what are you doing," she asked pushing the camera away from her face.

"It's Rinny's first day of school, I have to document it. And I seem to remember a certain someone who video taped everything on Lissy's first day of school as well," he answered still keeping the camera rolling.

The waiting room was completely silent as all of the Bolton's awaited any news about Camryn. Every time someone would walk past the door or walk into the room they would immediately look up hoping it was a doctor looking for them, it had been two hours since Lissy, Troy and the rest of the Bolton's had gotten to the hospital. Troy had been rubbing the back of his wife's hand, which still had their daughter's blood on it, trying to calm her down.

"Mr. and Mrs. Bolton," they heard a few minutes later, they looked up and saw a doctor standing there.

"Is she okay," was the first thing out of Troy's mouth.

"We're not sure yet. The bullet luckily didn't hit her spine but it came extremely close to it, we went in and took it out and fixed up all of her organs that were punctured by it. She has two broken ribs and those should heal in about six to eight weeks. But I do have some bad news while she was in surgery she fell into a coma and still hasn't woken up."

They felt as though someone had punched them really hard in the stomach as they listened to the doctor's words.

"Can we go see her," Lissy asked.

"Yeah that's fine, she may wake up when she realizes you guys are there," the doctor said, they all looked over at the little kids who were smiling and playing like always, "We have a day care just down the hall."

Troy turned the camera towards himself, "Welcome back everyone, it's now 7:30 here," he turned the camera towards the girls sitting at the table, "Why hello my favorite girls."

"We're your only girls," Lissy said with a mouth full of Fruit Loops.

"Nuh uh," Troy argued with a wide smile on his face.

"Yes us ares," she said putting her hands on her hips.

Troy chuckled, "You are your mother's daughter," then turned the camera to Camryn who was reading her Chrysanthemum book that Maria had bought her two days before and eating her cereal, "Rinny what are you doing," he asked.

She looked up and pushed her glasses up further on her face, "What daddy I'm reading my book," she answered.

"How'd you get so smart," he asked then pressed a kiss to her forehead, "are you excited to go to school?"
"A wittle but I would rather stay here wiff you."
"Well I promise I will be there to pick you up when schools over at 11:30 okay."
She nodded her head and went back to her book and breakfast.

Troy heard Gabriella walk into the dining room so he turned the camera towards her and paned the camera up and down her body; she was very nicely dressed. Troy whistled to tease his beautiful girlfriend, "Wow, you better watch out. I don't want to lose you to some 12 year old boy," he joked.

"Ha ha very funny. Do I really look okay, I want to look okay for my first day?"
"Yes babe you look great," he said then kissed her cheek.

"I think I'm more worried about going to school then Camryn is," she said sitting down at the table next to Lissy.

"Yeah well you're going to teach and she's going to play that's a huge difference."

"I want you to tape everything, okay," Gabriella said taking a bite of cereal that Lissy offered her.

"Don't worry I will, have a great day."

Gabriella stood up and gave Lissy a hug and kisses then walked over to Camryn, "Sweetheart I'm sorry I can't take you to school but I will buy you a new book today okay."

"Okay mommy."

Gabriella then gave Camryn hugs and kisses and did the same thing to Troy before grabbing her things and walking out of the door.

"The day she was born was the happiest day in her parent's lives, 'she's perfect,' said her mother. 'Absolutely,' said her father. And she was. She was absolutely perfect. 'Her name must be everything she is,' said her mother. 'Her name must be absolutely perfect, said her father. And it was. Chrysanthemum. Her parents named her Chrysanthemum. (I don't own the book Chrysanthemum)," Lissy read along to the pages of the somewhat wore out book as she sat next to her sister's hospital bed.

Camryn looked almost identical to what she looked like when she was first born and was laying in her incubator; many wires, IV bags, she even looked so small.

While Lissy was reading Camryn her favorite book, Troy and Gabriella were standing in the hallway with two police officers and their attorney.

"We are very sorry about what happened but we wanted to come here and ask you if you would be pressing charges on Cindy Matthews," one of the police officers asked.

"Cindy was the one who did this," Gabriella asked.

"Yes ma'am there was multiple witnesses who saw Cindy shoot your daughter when she was walking over to talk to some friends."

Gabriella felt a tear escape her eyes, "Yes, definitely we will be pressing charges," Troy answered for his wife.

Troy held Camryn's hand and waved goodbye to Lissy with his other hand as he walked his youngest daughter to her classroom. Camryn stopped dead in her tracks when they arrived at her Kindergarten classroom.

"Daddy I'm scared. What if something bad happens," Camryn asked.

"Sweetheart, schools are the one of the safest places," Troy answered still with the camera rolling.
