I crashed on the couch to take a long nap when I got home. Last night was a disaster and I really don't want to talk to anyone. 5 teens died from that tree falling, 2 kids were severely injured in the car pile up, and 7 adults died last night on the 118's watch.
The car pile-up was pretty much a deadly disaster where a big tree fell so Cap ordered us to go home after 24 hours instead of 36 hours.
Oh and Buck is working at another station because I pushed him away so I have no one to talk to unless I invite him over.
Shit.
I have to pick Chris up from Athena's place.
Buck texted me the other day that Amelia and Chris were being watched by Athena's friend's and I just glanced at the text and nodded. I was busy with work and Carla isn't free neither is abuela.
A moment after I change my clothes in my bedroom, there is a sudden knock at the door.
I don't need to talk to anyone right now.
"Buck, what are you doing here? I thought that you were working at your station today?" I look up at him since he is taller than me and watch him rush in my apartment like its his place,
"I need you to come with me to the police station right now," Buck says in the lowest tone I've ever heard.
"Why? Did someone get arrested?" I grab my wallet and keys from the table at the front door.
"Athena has news about the family I let Amelia with before she ran away to you. I was going to go yesterday but I had the kids because you were working and I didn't want to tell Amelia where I was. going. How was your shift by the way? I thought it was 36 hours? Anyways, I need you to come with me in case it is my fault that everything happened. You said that you care about me and want to have a second chance. This is your chance to care about me in case I fucked everything up with Amelia. Don't worry the kids are still at Athena's with T.K and Carlos. Maddie couldn't watch them she is on dispatch. I am also freaking out because Athena said it's not bad or tragic. What if they are murderers or what is the brother is a sexual predator? I left Amelia in that house because I was working. Oh shit. What if the brother of that family abused her?" Buck says very fast and runs a hand through his hair while sitting on my couch on the verge of an anxiety attack.
