Jack's Pov
I was hanging out with Damien when both our phones went off. It was a message from Sally in the group chat. Sally:
Help
Park
Carson
Jake
Panic attack
Help!
I looked at Damien before we both ran out the door to his car. Dee drove as fast as he could without speeding to the park. We parked and got out looking around for Sally or Jake.
"How are we going to find them? The park is huge!" I explained seeing no one.
"Let's start at the pond and work our way out."
I nodded and we started running to the pond. As we got closer I heard yelling from the other side.
"Hey leave her alone!"
That sounded like Jake….
"Shut up pretty boy!"
"Awe you think I'm pretty. Now put me down!"
I looked and saw Jake tied up and dangling over the pond, 'No. No. No!'
I grabbed Damien's hand and started running to the other side.
"Ok fine."
The guy holding Jake dropped him and he fell into the water. He didn't resurface. I jumped in the water and dragged Jake out of the pond. Damien was next to Sally while talking to someone on the phone. I looked at Jake, his chest was barely moving. I undid the ropes then heard a siren. I looked up to see police and paramedics rushing over to us. I backed away from Jake as he was put in the ambulance. Other paramedics were checking on Sally and the police were asking Damien questions. I ran over to Sally once the nurses were done.
"Hey Sal, can I touch you?"
She nodded and instantly latched on to me. I pulled her on my lap and ran my fingers through her hair. My shirt was damp from the tears and pond but I didn't care right now.
I tilted her head up to look at me, "It's ok Sal, there gone, you're safe now."
"Is-is Jake ok?"
"I don't know he was sent to the hospital."
She nodded before reaching to grab her phone.
"Whatcha doing Sal?" I asked moving my hands from her hair to her lower back.
"Texting Ma-Maddie and Am-Amy…."
"We should head to the hospital." Damien stood up.
"Yeah come on Sal."
I helped her to her feet before picking her up bridal style.
"Jack! Put me down!"
"Not till we're at the car."
"I can walk you know."
"I know."
She sighed in defeat relaxing a little, putting her head in the crook of my neck.
Amy's Pov
"Yes!" I jumped up and down.
Quinn groaned, "Again! How!"
"I'm just really good at Monopoly apparently."
"I don't understand…..you were broke three turns ago!"
"That Em is all part of my secret Monopoly strategy."
"Hun spill the tea."
"Well, first you...never gonna find out!" I smirked leaning back a bit.
"Ugh! I call a rematch!"
"How about a movie instead?" Emily started cleaning up the game.
"Fine…."
I giggled going over to the movie rack, "What movie?"
"Little Mermaid?"
"I'm down for that."
"Ok." I found the movie and put it in.
I sat down next to Quinn with Emily on his other side. I squeaked a little when Quinn pulled me on his lap and against his chest. He started running his hands through my hair and his other hand wrapped around my waist while humming along to the music.
We were at the part where Ariel and Eric were in the boat and Kiss the Girl came on.
"Hey, Amy, sugar?"
"Yeah?" I turned so I was facing him.
"I was wondering if-"
Quinn was cut off by my phone going off.
"Hold that thought, Quinn."
I grabbed my phone looking at the notification. Sally:
Hey, Am I know you're at a friend's house but there was an accident at the park and Jake…he um may or may not be in an ambulance on the way to the hospital...I'm texting Maddie after I text you so….may or may not see you there.
I jumped off the bed looking for my shoes and keys.
"Whoa, whoa babe, girl calm down, who died?"
"Jake might have, I have to get to the hospital!"
"Amy calm down." Quinn grabbed me, making me face him.
"It��ll be alright. Let me and Emily get our stuff. Ok?"
"You guys are coming with?"
"Of course hun! What kind of friends do you take us for?"
"The best kind."
We got our stuff then set out for the hospital. When I stopped the car I dashed into the building seeing Sally, Maddie, Damien, and Jack. I ran over to them hugging Sally tightly.
"Are you ok? Are you hurt? Who do I need to physically fight? What happened? Where's Jake? Is he ok?"
"Amy calm down and take a deep breath hun."
I stepped away from Sally taking Quinn's hand and taking a deep breath.
"Is Jake ok?"
"We don't know the doctor hasn't said anything."
"Are you ok?"
"A little shaken but I'm fine."
"What happened?"
Sally told us they went for a walk as part of Jake's apology for the fight the other day when she saw her old high school bully, Carson, who was the one who beat her up at school yesterday. She told us his buddies pinned Jake and tied his hands and legs together while Carson beat her up. When Jake told one of the guys holding him to let him go they dropped him in the pond. Lucky Damien and Jack had gotten there. Jack jumped in and grabbed Jake out while Dee dealt with Carson. When she finished I noticed the tears falling down my face. I gave her another hug.
"My poor dark strange daughter!"
"Jake Prince's family!"
Maddie's Pov
Hey Maddie so um….Jake may or may not be in the back of an ambulance. I already texted Amy, see you there.
'I'm gonna murder those two.'
I rushed to grab my shoes and keys.
'Great it's raining out.'
I made it to the hospital and saw Sally, Jack, and Damien.
"What the heck happened!?"
"Well-"
Sally was cut off by Amy hugging her.
"Are you ok? Are you hurt? Who do I need to physically fight? What happened? Where's Jake? Is he ok?"
I didn't hear the middle one but someone cut her off before she could continue her rant.
"Amy calm down and take a deep breath hun."
"Is Jake ok?"
"We don't know the doctor hasn't said anything."
"Are you ok?"
"A little shaken but I'm fine."
"What happened?"
Sally explained what happened and Amy gave her another hug.
"Jake Prince's family!"
Jack rushed over to the doctor, "Yes I'm his older brother is he ok?"
"He's fine and awake you can see him if you'd like."
"Thank you, what room?"
"304."
"Thank you."
I notice Sally and Damien pale and look at each other before following Jack.
"Excuse me, sir?" I stopped the doctor.
"Yes?"
"Were there any serious injuries with Jake?"
"No other than a short breath from after he resurfaced from the water.But I will say he's lucky he got out of there when he did or he may not be here today."
"Thank you."
"No problem."
I walked in to see a crying Jack and Amy. Sally and Damien were talking quietly off to the side.
"Specks a little help here please."
"You're lucky you're ok."
"Why's that?"
"I would've murdered you myself."
"I'm fine really."
I sighed, "Whatever."
