"I am going back and starting a central line with fluids. This way we are a step up when they arrive", Katy said as she was rooting through their supplies.
"Tim, run over to the ambulance and get me a portable heart monitor and see if they have any compression bandages." She watched as he ran to do her bidding. Now that they were alone for a few minutes Katy grabbed the phone, clicked mute, and turned to him.
"You know you can tell me anything, right?"

Matthew just nodded, knowing she wanted assurances from him on how he was handling this unbelievable situation.

"So tell me how are you really feeling. This has all got to be surreal to you. After all, she could be your wife right now, that could be your baby. Those feelings just don't disappear," the no nonsense girl that Matt fell in love was right on top of it, as usual.

"I know how I feel, and I feel sad for Jackson, not for me. I care about her, a lot, and I am worried, a lot, but that does not take one thing away from how I feel for you. What they have, what drove Jackson to stand up and stop our wedding, and April to run off with him, is what I feel for you." Matthew could see by that peak-a-boo smile she was giving him that she got it. She felt the same way. Soul mates just knew.

Tim arrived with the monitor and compression bandages already in a duffel bag for her that she threw over her shoulder. She handed Matt the phone, gave his hand an extra caress and was off.

Oooooooooooooooooooooooooo

April was starting to panic. She had tried to move slightly to see if she could wiggle her way out, but then she felt the sharp pain in her leg. She tried to reach down with her hand to find what was causing it, but she only felt thick, sticky blood.
The problem with being a doctor is sometimes you just know too much.
Fear began to escalate as she went from a stable, trapped passenger to a hemorrhaging, fourteen week pregnant patient.
Where the hell was Lt. Green. The incompetent buffoon didn't even check for bleeding.
It was then that April felt the tourniquet that she hadn't even known was applied.
She gasped realizing that the bleeding had to be bad, probably an artery, to be causing enough blood loss for a tourniquet to be used.
How long had she been bleeding? How much has she lost? Where's on her leg is the injury?

Katy had just shimmied up to the driver's side when she saw the look in April's eyes and her blood covered hand was extended toward, Katy's face.
"You need to start talking straight to me", April demanded.
"I am a trauma surgeon for God's sake. Two heads are better than one in this situation. Now start talking."

"Actually try like a dozen heads," Katy countered, realizing the whole truth was about to be told.

April just looked at her quizzically.

"There is a team of doctors on the way from GSMH to take over your care so that we can finish extracting you from the car," she began.
"Your husband, Dr. Avery, Dr. Meredith Grey and an OB Dr. Weaks should be here within the next ten minutes."
Katy cut the sleeve to April's blouse in order to start a central line as she continued.
"You were not in an accident per se. You were on route 95 when the 404 overpass collapsed. We have air jacks holding up probably tens of thousands of pounds of concrete that was threatening to crush your car. There is a piece of the dashboard lodged into your calf and our blood pressure is low, but it has been stable since I applied the tourniquet.
There is barely enough room for me to reach you, so they are bring Dr. Grey, who is apparently petite, to give you a rapid transfusion before we move you per your husband's insistence.
Now I am going to start a central line and get you hooked up to a heart monitor so that Dr. Grey can get right down to business when she arrives.

April was thankful to be getting the facts, but hard press to stay calm.
They were coming to give her the transfusion because they were afraid she would go into shock and then labor. "How did they know", April asked, "How long have I been here?"

Jackson would be distraught. She needed to see him. She needed his arms around her. Tears began flowing for the first time since she woke up.

"I would estimate you have been here a little over an hour, " Katy said as she fished the heart monitor out of the bag.
"Your cell phone fell out at me after my initial visit. I picked it up and took it back to a member of my team, Matthew Taylor."
He and your husband have been getting re acquainted for the past half hour while we relayed your status."

April's mouth dropped open and she shook her head before wiping her face with the back of her hand. "Matthew and Jackson. Matthew Taylor?" How, umm, when did he...uh..."

Katy took pity on her. "Yes, your ex fiancé and husband. Seems a little drama has a way of clearing the air"...

Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Jackson, Meredith and Dr. Weaks sat in the back of the ambulance as it made its way through the destruction. As they pass some of the cars that had been completely destroyed by falling concrete, Jackson thought he was going to vomit.
How the hell could this happen. He closed his eyes and pinched the bridge of his nose hoping to block out the images.
It looked like a war zone.
And April was in amongst it.

He could hear their driver communicating with the Search and Rescue team as they were directing them to their location.
Not two minutes later they came to a stop.
Jackson took a deep breath and opened the back doors.
What greeted him was something he would have nightmares about forever.
He could see the humongous slab that was hanging perilously over their black SUV.
How it had not crushed it and her was a miracle.

Meredith, who was standing to his left, only stared with raised brows.
It was quite a sight.

"Are you going to be able to handle this?" Jackson asked as he looked down into her face.

"Yep. WE are going to handle this and get her outta there," she patted him on his bicep and walked towards the gathering where she saw Matthew...
