~~Kirstie's POV~~
"I'm going to shower!" Melody announces as she skips down the hall.
"I'm really worried about her." Avi said as he rinsed his plate in the sink.
"Why?" I asked.
"Well, I think she has a lot of trauma and it might be beneficial for her to get counseling." Avi replied.
"A lot of kids in the system do have trauma. We can ask her if that's something she is interested in." Scott said as he wiped the table.
"Yeah I think so too-" Kevin started.
Suddenly we heard a scream and a big thud. We all looked at each other before darting to the bathroom. I knocked, calling Melody's name.
"Melody!" I yelled.
She wasn't responding. We got worried so I grabbed a bobbypin and picked the lock. I walked in just in case she didn't have any clothes on. When I walked in I saw the water running on her lifeless body. I looked at her head and blood was streaming down the drain.
"Oh my god!" I screamed. I picked her up and felt her heart. She was still breathing.
"Kirstie is she ok?" Scott asked from the other side of the door.
"Call 911!" I screamed.
I quickly put her clothes back on and carried her out into the living room. Mitch gasped at the sight of her head.
"Quickly I need a towel for the blood!" I yelled.
The guys were running around trying to find one.
"Melody please be ok." I whispered kissing her forehead.
"Okay an ambulance is on the way." Scott said rushing over to Melody's side.
I looked up and saw a tear slip from his eyes. I wiped the tear and assured him she will be ok.
"Here's a towel." Kevin said running a towel to me.
I placed it under her head for just until the ambulance gets here. We all gathered our things to get ready to go. The ambulance arrived and Avi volunteered to go with Melody in the ambulance. So the rest of us hopped in the car and rushed to the hospital.
~~Avi's POV~~
I sat down in the ambulance next to Melody. A tear slipped from my eyes as I looked at her. She wasn't here for even a week and we already are rushing to the hospital.
"I'm sorry Meli Beli." I sobbed.
The paramedics were checking her vitals as we rushed down the highway.
"Okay she is breathing so that is good!" They said.
I nodded as I held her hand tightly.
We finally got to the hospital and they rushed her to a room. They took me to the waiting room where Scott, Mitch, Kevin, and Kirstie were all waiting. I could see the tears in their eyes.
"Please tell me she's alive." Mitch said as tears rushed down his cheeks.
"She's okay. They are checking everything but she is breathing." I said.
A smile appeared on their faces. Mitch wrapped his arms around me, sobbing. I hugged him back tightly. We all sat down until they came into the room.
"Who is the parent of Melody?" The nurse said.
"We all are!" Scott said.
"We just need a maximum of two right now." The nurse added.
"Mitch, Avi go." Kevin said giving us a small smile.
We nodded and followed the nurse back to Melody's room. When we walked in Melody was sleeping peacefully with a bandage around her head. We looked at each other with tears in our eyes.
"So is everything ok?" I asked the nurse.
"Yes! So thankfully she just needed some stitches. It could've been a lot worse." He said.
"So should we have any concerns when she wakes up?" Mitch asked.
"There is very very small chance she could wake up with short term amnesia but that probably won't happen." The nurse replied.
"Okay good. Can the rest of her family come in?" I asked.
"Yes I will go grab them now." The nurse said.
The door closed behind him and Mitch and I went to the side of the bed. We held her hands. I just looked at her and prayed that she would remember me. This kid has already changed my life. I can't loose her.
The door swung open and Scott, Kevin, and Kirstie ran in. We filled them in on the good news and the possible bad news. I was really relying on the chance that she wouldn't get short term amnesia.
As we all were just watching her sleep she began to toss and turn. Suddenly her eyes shot open and we gasped. Please remember me kid.
"W-where am I?" She asked.
"Mel you're in a hospital. You took a pretty big fall." Kevin said giving her a small smile.
"I-I did?" She asked looking around at all of us.
"Yeah but you are ok. They gave you a few stitches and you should be fine in no time." Mitch said rubbing the top of her hand with his thumb.
"Oh okay good... I have a question." She said looking at me.
"What's up sweetheart?" I asked her.
"Who are you guys?"
