Realistic or Modern Put It Into Speed Drive

[Forever6A7X]

Max shook her head softly and gave a heavy sigh "You were so distant after I found out....I thought maybe that was your way of trying to tell me it was over." She told him truthfully laughing lightly as their daughter cooed at him

Eddie gave a small smile seeing Lita come clock in and waved "Hey there,how are you today?" He asked nicely. He'd gotten along with her quickly once Carmen had introduced them and he was happy to have a friend at work again since Carmen was gone now.

He frowned and shook his head, gently moving Grace into her rocker before turning back and pulled max in close. “I lost control. I’ll admit it. But it had nothing to do with you babe. A lot to do with stress at the club but never about you.” He promised, swaying gently with her. “I know things are just as bad there even now which is why i want to start pulling away.” He explained.

She smiled and watched him. When Carmen had called her and told her about who her new man was she’d been both excited for her and fairly jealous of what she now had compared to the relationship she knew Carmen had been in previously “yeah not bad. Almost finished unpacking the house now. Did Carmen tell you me and her are going to lunch tomorrow… long as she can get out of bed.” She smiked

 

[Forever6A7X]

Max held onto him and gave a small nod before kissing him gently "I just don't want to loose you like that again." She said quietly as she cupped his face "I love you Jon."

Eddie gave a small smile and nodded some "Yeah she mentioned it.she has been so excited to have you here." He said happily

 

[decadent-rider]

She nodded and left him to it as she went to get started with work, a hit with a few of the bikers and having a great night until they were starting to ring in last call and they all heard the bikes coming down the road, roaring into the parking lot before the first shots started ringing out. She ducked down behind the bar immediately, freaking out until as quickl as it had started it had finished. She soon heard the shouts though, standing up when she heard a guy she knew as Drew shouting eddies name befoe yelling for someone to call an ambulance.

He smiled at her and held her close as he could without squishing Grace. He was enjoying their first day together again, barely letting max lift a finger with the baby until much later in the evening when his phone was ringing off the hook with one of the guys’ numbers. He glanced at it from his spot cuddling with max on the couch but just turned the ringer off and placed it facing down. “I told you. I wanna start pulling away.” He mumbled to her

 

[Forever6A7X]

Eddie came out when he heard yelling but was soon struck multiple times falling to the ground. Jess had rushed over to him once the shooting had stopped and quickly tried putting pressure to his wounds "Oh no no no, Eddie try to stay awake for me." She pleaded but it was no use because he was already unconscious.

Max frowned gently as his phone started pinging but gave him a small smile cuddling close to him "I love you and so does Grace." She murmured looking over at the little baby monitor watching her sleep some "This was honestly the best gift; it has helped my anxiety with her sleeping so much."

 

[decadent-rider]

Carmen had fallen asleep, waking up to her phone ringing and groaned a little seeing it was Jess calling, answering and sitting up a little. “Jess? What’s… what’s going on?” She yawned, stretching out.

He smiled and kissed her head “Good. Now I’m home im expecting you to get as much sleep as you can.” He smiled, pulling her in tightly to him.

 

[Forever6A7X]

Jess took shaky breaths as she tried to calm herself down while calling Carmen still covered in Eddie's blood "Carmen you need to get up, I got Alex coming to pick you up. There was a shooting and Eddie got hurt..." she explaimed to her

Max gave a soft laugh and smiled gently "Mmm I plan on doing just that." She said softly before she started to doze off against him.

 

[decadent-rider]

He smiled and kissed the top of her head, “Alright let’s get you to bed though love.” He smiled, having her lean on him to get her upstairs.

Carmen was wide awake with those last three words, “Jess how hurt? Is he… oh god.” She chucked some shoes on and grabbed a hoodie to take with her, going to wait by their front door, hearing drew in the background handing something to her and telling her to come wash off.

 

[Forever6A7X]

Alex knocked on the door a few minutes later and took her hand helping her to the car "You want me to get anything for you while you're up there?" He asked not knowing Jess hadn't gone into specifics with her

 

[decadent-rider]

“No no I… I just need to get to him. I don’t… how bad is it Alex?” She asked, trying to stay calm but shooting and Eddie being hurt were not two things she wanted to hear in the same sentence. She got in the car, shaking a little.

Jon groaned when he was woken up to banging on the front door, sighing heavily and getting up to go deal with it, getting to the door and frowned when he found Drew on the other side. “Drew an ignored call means I’m not coming in. I just got home a few hours ago. I need to be here with my kid.” He told him frowning

 

[Forever6A7X]

Alex took a deep breath and helped her in the car "He got him three times, two to the chest and he got grazed on the head." He explained before taking her to the hospital "They have him in surgery right now."

Drew glared at Jon when he opened the door and shook his head. "The bar was shot up. Eddie got hit and another two people are dead." He said in an angry tone "I get you want your family but you need to answer your damn phone."

 

[decadent-rider]

He sighed heavily and rubbed at his face. “I’m not coming in. I don’t know when I’ll be back. But it’s not right now.” He told him seriously, “Goodnight drew.” He muttered, shutting the door on him and headed back up to bed, frowning seeing max awake. “Go back to sleep love.” He murmured

She swallowed thickly but nodded, not saying another word until they arrived and she got inside to find both Jess and Lita there, freezing up a little when she saw the blood on Jess’s jeans still. She was already feeling dizzy and she made it to the chairs before sitting down. “Are you okay?” She asked her quietly. “Both of you?”

 

[Forever6A7X]

Max gave Jon a small frown as he came back to bed. She had woken up when she heard the banging as well, thankful that it hadn't woken up Grace. "Is everything okay?" She asked softly as he got back into bed.

Jess gave a small nod as she looked at Carmen "Yeah...shaken up but we'll be alright." She said quietly giving her hand a tight squeeze "He'll pull through, he'll do it for you." She said quietly trying to keep positive for her.

 

[decadent-rider]

He shook his head. “Shooting at the bar. Two people are dead Ed’s been hit bad. But I’m not going in.” He told her. “I said I was staying here and I’m standing my ground.”

Carmen frowned but nodded, holding onto her hands tightly, waiting impatiently for a couple hours and almost falling asleep in the chair by the time someone came out and called eddies name, getting up as quickly as she could and making her way over. “I’m his partner…. What’s… is he okay?” She really needed to lie down. She was meant to be mostly on bed rest and this stress wasn’t helping her at all but she needed to see him first.

 

[Forever6A7X]

Max frowned deeply and gave a small nod before laying back down with him "I hope he pulls through." She murmured quietly before cuddling up to him and falling asleep again

The nurse looked Carmej up and down and frowned a bit at the state of her "Come with me ma'am, would you like a wheelchair?" She asked seeing her swaying a bit on her feet. She called for another nurse to grab a wheelchair before helping steady her on her feet "Your partner is out of surgery, the doctor will be able to give you more in depth details soon, but he is sleeping right now."

 

[decadent-rider]

He sighed quietly and kissed her head, keeping her close as he eventually drifted off again as well.

Carmen thanked them as they took her through to his room, moving to sit in the chair by his bed, feeling sick at the sight of all the wires and monitors everywhere but she stayed there holding his hand until eventually his doctor showed up. “Please. What’s going on with him??” She questioned,

 

[Forever6A7X]

The doctor gave a heavy sigh as she looked Eddie's chart over "One bullet went near his heart, another through one of his lungs. He is currently in a medicated coma, we'll keep him under close review." She explained before leaving her to privacy

 

[decadent-rider]

She frowned and just started crying, feeling like he was being swept to the side. By the morning she’d had hardly any sleep and looking worse for wear when Lita came in. “No update. His nurse hasn’t been to see him in a few hours… this intensive care unit isn’t very intensive.” She muttered, hee hands shaking. She needed to go home but she was terrified of leaving him like this and she still needed to call Chrissy.

Jon woke up early with Grace, taking her down and getting her a bottle sorted out so max could sleep in, just rocking her gently while he stared at her in awe.

 

[Forever6A7X]

Lita came in early that morning and frowned deeply "Let me go talk to someone, you need someone to take you home?" She asked noting how awful she looked at the moment. She left the room and went to get a nurse demanding they look Eddie over more closely.

Max came down a bit later and smiled happily seeing Jon and Grace. "Good morning you two." She said sweetly as she sat beside them.

 

[decadent-rider]

He looked up and smiled some “Morning. She’s still not that sure about me yet.” He mumbled tiredly. “You wanna go for a walk later this morning?” He asked her

She just nodded, pulling her phone out and making her way into the hall to call Chrissy finally. “Chrissy. Hi…. I’m sorry to call so early… eddies been shot. He’s uh… he’s not doing so good. Grazed his head. Then one went through a lung and the third one was almost through his heart. He’s not… they’re keeping him comatose for a while.”

 

[Forever6A7X]

Max gave a small laugh and nodded some "She'll get used to you, I showed her photos of you all the time." She explained before pecking his cheek "That sounds nice; we can take the trail thats not too far from here."

Chrissy frowned deeply when she heard Carmen's voice and scoffed "Well isn't that something. Keep me updated I guess in case I need to tell Ozzy." She muttered

 

[decadent-rider]

She frowned and shook her head. “Chrissy he deserves to see him in case this goes south.” She told her but she’d already hung up and Carmen just slid back into the chair in the hall to wait for Lita to take her home.

He nodded, handing her over and went to take a quick shower to clean up after the king car ride the day before.

 

[Forever6A7X]

Lita came over and gave a heavy sigh "Okay so they'll be in there soon to check him over, lets get you home. I'll stay up here and give you all the details okay?" She said softly before helping her up "Is the baby feeling okay? Nothing worse than normal?"

Max smiled as he went off and she went to start off her day like she normally would. When he came back down she looked up at him smiling "Hey I was able to get us some breakfast made. You feeling better?"

 

[decadent-rider]

She thanked her quietly and nodded. “She feels fine. She always feels fine. It’s just me.” She smiked a little tiredly.

Jon nodded “cleaner.” He smiled, walking over and lifting Grace up out of hee high chair, having her sit in his lap. “How are my girls this morning?” He asked. “I will need to go in later today for at least a little bit but hopefully not long.”

 

[Forever6A7X]

It was a week before Eddie made any kind of changes. He hadn't woken up yet, but he was healing thankfully. They just wouldn't know the damage fully until he woke up and could respond to them.

Max sat at the park with Jon and Grace smiling happily as he played with her on their picnic blanket. Things had been nice this first week back, but she knew the club was pressuring him to come in with everything that had happened with Eddie. She didn't know specifics, but she knew that the rival club was reaking havoc on them right now.
