*I'll be writing this chapter all in Sidney's point of view*
I just walk back and forth on the floor of the ER as I think what if she dies. It's my fault for her death. I couldn't take that.
My phone then goes off in my pocket.
"Get me if the doctors come out please," I ask before I walk outside to answer my phone.
"Hello," I say.
"Where are you?"
It's mom.
"I'm at the hospital in Pittsburgh, its Brie not me,"
"what happened to her?"
"Well her ex was up at the arena so we both went in together. She talked to him until he got me mad enough that I started fighting him. He then got on top of my and punched me. She tired to get him off but he hit her to the ground. I dont know how she is and it's driving me nuts,"
"Oh my god, I hope she is ok,"
"Me too mom,"
"Want us to come down there?"
"Nah stay with Nat and let her know. Mario already knows so he might be down here,"
"Doesn't the plane leave tonight for Philly?"
"I won't be on it, might not be in the game. Can't do hockey knowing my girlfriend is in the hosptial.
"We can extend our trip and stay at the hosptial with Brie,"
"LC probably will be here, she won't go no where,"
"You need to be there for the team,"
"I'm not going, I'll talk to Dan about it,"
Just as I say that Mario comes walking up.
"Gotta go mom,"
I hang up the phone.
"Hear anything about her?" Mario asks.
"Nothing yet,"
Just then James came running out.
"The doctor is hear about Brie,"
I rush in behind James as I stood there.
"Is this everyone?"
I look behind me a Mario is there.
"Yes," I say.
"You all family?"
"I'm here sister, this is her brother in law, her husband and our father," LC says.
She just lied for us.
"Ok, follow me to a room please,"
They get up as we follow them down to a room.
As I walked in I knew it was bad news.
"Ok, well Brielle has a concussion. She is also is in a coma that we don't know if she will get out of it. If she does, she might have memory loss but not sure until she wakes up,"
"Oh my god, is there anything else?" LC asks crying.
"She has a ankle sprain but thats nothing. She is on IV's and montiors for now,"
"She isn't on no breathing machines?" LC asks.
"Not at this time no, she will stay in the ICU until she wakes up. Would you like to see her?"
"Yes," I say.
"Only two at a time, the other two can go back to the waiting room.
"Me and you Sid," LC says.
I don't know why she picked me to go before James or Mario.
"Alright follow me," He says as we get up and walk behind him into the hosptial then to the ICU area.
"She is in bed 1, the door opens and closes but we can see her though," he says.
"Thank you,"
We walk to that room.
"Sidney go in first," LC says.
"You go in first," I say.
"Dont know if I can handle it,"
"I'm right here, I don't know if I will either,"
LC grabs me hand as me move the door and walk into the room.
She has a oxygen canula on her nose, and IV in her arms and alot of montiors connected on her.
"Oh Brielle," LC says as she walks over to the bed as I follow her.
"You will be ok sis, you just got to come out of this. If you don't I only have my child as family,"
LC begins to cry as I pet her back as I knew James should have went first.
"I can't do this anymore," LC says as she walks out of the room in tears.
I sit down in the chair as I just look at her, tears escaped down my face.
"I'm so sorry Brie baby. I shouldn't have started that fight with him,"
I grab her hand in mine as I begin to cry.
Sitting there for along time, I just stare at her and cry. I couldn't stop crying as a knock came at the door.
Turning I see Mario walking in.
"She looks bad Sid," Mario says as he leans against the wall.
"I know, I did this Mario,"
"Don't blame it on you Sid, it's her ex's fault not yours,"
I didn't see it that way.
"James and LC headed back to the house, then LC is staying with me and Nat for a few days while you boys are outta town,"
"I'm not going Mario, I can't leave her side I just can't,"
"I'll stay up here with her if I have too to get you to go to Philly. You have a team that needs there captain,"
He's right.
"I'll catch a plane tomorrow, I'm not going anywhere tonight,"
"You need to eat, we will go eat them come back ok?"
Just as he said that the doctor walks in.
"Whats your number Sid?" the doctor asks as I gave him the number.
"I'll call you if she changes. Please go get food before you end up here as well,"
"Yes sir," I say as I stand up and walk over to Brie.
"I'll be back baby,"
I kiss her on the head as I walk out of the room which Mario.
We head out of the ER and out the door to the hosptial.
"Sidney she will be ok, she has been through a lot in her life. she will over come this," Mario says as we walk back to the CEC.
"If I ever see John Tavares again I'm going to beat the shit out of him," I say as we walk into the building.
I looked over to the same space that Brielle was in I begin to let tears go knowing she was in a hosptial and I wasnt with her right now.
"Come on Sid,"
We make our way down the locker room as I walk in to see Dan packing his things.
"Hey Sid, whats wrong?" Dan asks.
"I'll make a flight to Philly tomorrow night Dan. Brielle got hurt," I say.
"Oh no, I hope she is ok,"
"It isn't looking good,"
"Keep your head up Sid. If you need to miss the game on Thursday then do it. If you believe you need to stay here with her then do it. I know how close you two have become,"
"Thanks Dan,"
He walks over to me and gives a a little hug.
"Your welcome kid,"
I walk into another room as Mario is just putting the jelly away.
"Here eat this," Mario says as he hands me a plates with a PB&J sandwich on it.
"Thanks Mario," I say as I dug into the sandwich which tastes so good.
After I ate and got something I drink I head back for Mercy hosptial.
I walk in and check in with the front nurse and got a pass as I head back to Brie's room.
Her door is shut, the doctor is in there working on her as tears escaped my eyes.
I sit down on the floor and cry
"Lord please don't take my Brielle away. Please!!" I exclaim as I still cry.
I just walk back and forth on the floor of the ER as I think what if she dies. It's my fault for her death. I couldn't take that.
My phone then goes off in my pocket.
"Get me if the doctors come out please," I ask before I walk outside to answer my phone.
