Marly
I was looking off when he said my name, and then his phone rang and I sighed, looking at my shoes. I was about to say something about leaving and turned to look at him. And surely I was surprised to see him standing there, looking like he'd just been run over by a truck.

Jordan;
I finally snapped out of what state I was in, yelling Delilah's name. "I need to get to the hospital,"I murmured to Marly as I picked up D once she was at my side.

I frowned and blinked my eyes. "Jordan? Is everything alright?"

Jordan;
I shook my head back and forth over and over,"No. No it's not. Would you watch D while I go to the hospital?"I asked, trying to hold back the tears and keep myself calm.

I frowned and picked up Delilah, but I followed after him. "Jordan? Do you need somebody to go with you?" He was completely distraught, I could tell. What had happened?

Jordan;
"I-I don't know,"I said as I fumbled with getting my keys out of my pocket and unlocking the truck, as I flung myself into the front seat.

I looked at him sternly before deciding to go with him. Uninvited or not. "I'm coming with you," I said insistently, buckling both Delilah and I up.

Jordan;
I didn't say anything as I waited for them to get buckled into the truck. Once they were, I took off down the road to the hospital. The tension was in the car, I could feel it but I didn't care. After about ten minutes we pulled into the parking lot and I raced out of the truck and into the hospital, running up to my mothers room.

Marly
I carried Delilah with me as I sprinted down the corridor behind Jordan, dying to ask questions but totally knowing better than to voice my curiosity at this time. I just silently followed, trying to soothe a frantic Delilah all the while.

Jordan;
I stood outside my mothers room, seeing that the nurses were all around her. I held up my hand to Marly,"Please don't let Delilah come in here,"I chocked out as I stepped inside, pressing myself against the wall as I watched the life being sucked away from my mom.

I thought about protesting, but when I realised how completely...depressed and fucked up he looked, I kept Delilah with me. She was now hugging me very tightly and crying. I rubbed her back and sat in a chair across from the room Jordan had disappeared into, making sure Delilah couldn't see anything.

Jordan;
A doctor who was trying to save her looked up at me and shook his head, saying it wasn't good. I finally left the tears run down my cheeks. Great, thanks mom. Leave us with the horrible fucking father. I breathed in deep then couldn't breath as I heard the monitor. Straight beep. She's gone. I watched as the doctors finally gave up,"You have to keep trying,"I choaked out.
"WHERE IS SHE?!"I heard my father yell from the hallway. I sucked in quickly and snapped my eyes shut. Not now.

Marly
I heard someone shout, and I turned wide-eyed to see a man barrelling down the corridor. I subconsciously held Delilah closer, and her tiny arms were tighter around me. Her face was covered by my hair, her head buried in my shoulder. I tried to do my best to soothe her, but she seemed shaky, like she was almost crying.

Jordan;
I left the room before my dad could go in,"She's gone,"I said looking up at him. His face turned red with so much anger,"She can't be?! She's supposed to take you two fucking brats away!"My dad shouted as he pushed me out of the way, going into the room. I stared after her, watching as the nurses and doctor tried to calm him down. I then looked over at Marly, frowning. Great, she saw it all.

I looked up from my words to Delilah to see Jordan standing there looking at me. I stood up, making sure Delilah was still comfortably sitting on my hip and stood in front of him. "You're not alright," I said quietly, looking up at him, and I swear my heart broke into a thousand, billion little pieces.
