Chapter Three

Mia’s smile turns down and I step forward, needing to hold on to her to anchor myself. I pull her into my arms, hug her against my body.

“What?” she says, pushing me away. “Where’s Brandon?”

People around us are talking, little bits and pieces of what happened. Some are citing worst-case scenarios and other optimists assume Brandon will be back on his feet by dinner.

“We have to go to the hospital.” Dax swings the keys in his hand, his eyes widening and telling me that we’ll have to talk to her in the car.

“Is he okay? What happened?” I can tell Mia’s trying to listen to everyone else’s conversations around us. The ones that are telling her a hell of a lot more than I am at the moment.

“He fell. We really gotta go,” I say.

She doesn’t move, and I know she’s probably processing the information, but I’m about to pick her up and carry her to the car over my shoulder.

“I think he’s probably dead. A tube was sticking out of his throat,” one guy says to another as they pass us by.

Mia’s face pales, her mouth hanging open as she turns to me, the person who caused this.

“Is that true?” she whispers.

“He didn’t even wake up. He was limp like a dead fish,” the other one says.

I grab the back of his jacket and yank him back my way. He looks over, holding his hands up in front of him, acting innocent.

“Whoa,” the other friend comes over.

“Mind your own fucking business.” I cock my fist back, ready to knock this guy out, but two hands grip my arm before I can connect.

“This is helping no one,” Mia says, finally realizing the severity of the situation.

“It’s your lucky day asshole,” Dax says as the three of us run toward the truck.
