Dean...

I got Katlyn in the impala and hit the gas spinning tires turning around and back into town, I pulled her close beside me still trying to wake her up but nothing worked. I turn the curves going 60 miles an hour and faster, I grab my phone and dial 911 "911 what's your emergency?" I almost scream into the phone "What is the nearest hospital to route 40?!" The person says "Sir what is your emergency?" "I NEED A HOSPITAL DAMN IT!!'' the girl on the other end finally replies "There is a hospital 10 miles from route 40 now sir-"But before she could go on I hang up.

Finally after the 10 miles felt like 100 I seen the big ER sign, I swerve through traffic and fish tail into the emergency unloading dock I pull to a fast stop and jump out running around to the other side getting Katlyn in my arms I run for the automatic doors as they open for me. The room was full of nurses and doctors running around to a different patience at a time, I run through screaming "HELP I NEED SOME HELP PLEASE!!!" Two nurses see me and run over to me as one pushes a bed with her, they make it to me as one says "Lay her down" I do so then the other begins to work on her shining a light in her eyes and feeling for her pulse "Sir" I look down to the nurse that must have been talking to me but I wasn't listening I reply "What?" She franticly goes on "What happen to her!?" I nod "She, she was in a-a car wreck and when I got her out she-she just past out! Can you tell me what is wrong with her? What happen to her? Why is she not awake!?!" The nurse looking over at Katlyn "Are you a member of the family sir?" Very confused I say "I am sorry a what?! She is dying and you want to know if I am a family member?!?!" the nurse says "Unless you are a family member I cannot tell you anything about her condition! And if you are not then I am going to have to ask you to step out into the waiting room" without a second thought I blurt out "SHE'S MY WIFE DAMN IT!!'' after I said that I put my hands behind my back switching moms silver wedding ring to my left ring finger then resting my hands by my side once more. She looks down to my hand, then over to Katlyn who was not wearing one of course. I quickly try and think up an excuse but it was harder then it normally is for me "We- we umm we're getting her ring sized. Now please tell me what is happening to her!!" The nurse that was checking her over had hooked her to a machine that was showing her heart rate and a bunch of other stuff but the heart monitor is what got all our attentions when it started making a very loud beep, when we look up and the line that was going up and down had now started to flatten out. The nurse yells "GET ME A DOCTOR WE HAVE A CODE BLUE I REPEAT CODE BLUE!!!" she then starts doing chest compressions on her as a man in a white lab coat comes running over saying "Get me a crash cart now!" The nurse that was talking to me had now put a mask on Katlyn sending air into her and the other nurse got on the bed with Katlyn and continued doing the compressions as they pushed her to the next open room where a team of doctors and nurses was running around hooking everything up to another machine.

They wheel her in and the nurse gets back on the ground as they cut Katlyn's shirt off and stick two square paper like pads to her chest, they were all too busy to tell me to leave so I just stood in horror as the doctor got a defibrillator and rubbed the paddles together as he said "Charging 100... and clear" he put the paddles to Katlyn's chest and an electric shock went through her body making her chest rise then fall limply back into the bed. He looks at the monitor as a nurse says "No change" he nods "Okay again... charging 150 ... clear" He does the same as before and again Katlyn's body jolts up then back down but this time a nurse says "We have a pulse!'' everyone looks to the monitor to see a heartbeat coming but up, the doctor says "Okay she's back now what are her injuries?" One of the nurses reads out "Car crash, three possible broken rib, fractured bone in her right leg, head trauma with swelling of the brain and lacerations along her head, arms, legs and chest" The doctor just nods saying "Okay let get her into trauma" they wheel her out as I go to follow but the doctor stops me with his arm, I look over to him as he says ''I have some questions for you Mister?" I think quickly "I ahh I'm Grey...umm Dean Grey" The doctor nods going on "okay Mister Grey they said this is your wife?" I nod quickly "Y-Yes Katlyn" He nods going on to say "Well she was in a car wreck and I am just wondering what exactly the whole story is?" confused I try understanding what exactly he is saying "What-what do you mean?" he replies "If this is your wife why is it she was in a car wreck and you weren't but yet you found her" At this point I was about pissed off with him but I tried keeping my cool saying "Me and my wife got into a fight over our-our bills and she left well after she left I decided to go after her and that's when I found the crash" that sounded believable enough right? He nods "Well that's good enough for me" Then turns running back down the hall to Katlyn's room they now had her in, I go to follow but a nurse stops me saying "Sir if you would just give us a minute to stabilize your wife then you are welcome to come back" I start to protest but she continues "Maybe you have someone you would like to call?" at which point I remember "Sammy..." Nodding I turn walking to the side getting my phone calling Sam
