Ashley smiled as she pulled back from the kiss. “So,” she began as she took hold of the blonde’s hand, “How do you like touring so far.”

“It’s fun,” Spencer replied with a nod. “It is really tiring though. But, seeing you perform your heart out every night all sweaty and sexy makes up for that.”

“I am irresistible,” the rocker rebutted easily.

The blonde laughed lightly. “You have such a big head.”

“That’s what she said,” Aiden piped as he took a seat net to Spencer.

“Nice Elmer’s,” Ashley laughed giving her cousin a high five.

“You guys are gross,” the blonde muttered embarrassed as a blush coated her cheeks.

“You love us,” Ashley sighed kissing Spencer’s cheek.

“Hey Ash I talked to that receptionist from earlier,” Aiden informed. “She asked if I could get an autograph from you for her.”

“Fuck that,” Ashley chuckled humorlessly. “I should have her fired for the way she treated us. Heartless bitch. What if I wasn’t who I am? What if I was just a regular person trying to see their grandmother?”

“You would probably still be filling out papers,” Spencer replied flatly.

“What’s taking Kyla and Ryan so long,” Ashley whined. “I want my coffee.”

“I’m sure they have to go slower because of the rain,” Aiden assumed. The faint sound of an ambulance sounded outside.

“Well,” Ashley sighed crossing her arms. “They better hurry up and get here.”

Suddenly the group saw a huddle of doctors and nurses shuffle towards the emergency entrance doors. The sound of sirens drew closer and paramedics arrived.

“What have we got,” one of the doctors said as he pulled on some gloves.

“There was a car accident on nine and third,” a paramedic replied as she opened the ambulance doors. “One male one female I’d say early twenties, the male has a gash on his forehead but he is responsive. The female has a severe puncture in her stomach and she has become unresponsive.”

“Let’s get them out of there,” the doctor informed. They pulled the stretchers out. The doctor did a quick once over on the female patient. “We’re gonna need to take this one into surgery right away! Bring a crash cart!”

“How horrible,” Spencer commented shaking her head.

Ashley, letting curiosity get the best of her, stood up to get a better look at what was going on. Her face went pale. “Oh my God it’s Kyla and Ryan!” She yelled.

“What,” Spencer and Aiden screamed simultaneously getting on their feet.

Ashley ran over to the stretcher. “Kyla!” She yelled when she came in closer to her sister. The short brunette’s middle was covered with blood and her skin was white.

“Ma’am I’m gonna need you to move,” the doctor informed as he and a team of other doctors quickly wheeled Kyla away.

The rocker tried to follow but she was stopped by a nurse. “You can’t go back there ma’am they’re taking her into an OR.”

“That’s my sister,” Ashley cried.

“I’m so sorry Ash,” Ryan sobbed as he was wheeled past the rocker. “I’m so sorry.” He kept repeating.

“Oh my God,” the rocker croaked as she cried uncontrollably. She felt her knees buckle from under her. Aiden and Spencer moved quick to catch her.

“Her BP is increasing,” a nurse informed.

“Get me the defibrillator,” the surgeon growled as he frantically rubbed the electric panels together. “Clear!” He yelled as he delivered the discharge.

Nothing. He tried again, “Clear,” he yelled.

Another one. Nothing. He tried one last time.

“Clear!”
