Gerard POV
I turned into the hospital parking lot and parked the car where it was before. I went inside and found Frank. He was in the lounge getting something to eat.
“How’s Ashley doing?” I asked him. He shook his head. We walked back outside and sat on one of the benches. He gave me part of his pop-tart and we sat in silence for a few minutes.
“She’s doing Okay, but she still hasn’t woken up. She hit her head pretty hard when she fell, well, was pushed. The cameras in the stairwell caught everything. The police are out looking for her dad right now,” he told me.
“Who’s her dad?” I asked. I had never heard her last name.
“Jared Leto.” I looked at him in shock. He knew what I was thinking and he shook his head.
“I couldn’t believe it either. When Danni told me, I was just… wow. I don’t know why he would such a thing. I always thought he was a nice guy. I didn’t even know he had kids!”
We finished eating and then went inside. We were almost to her room when Danni walked out. She smiled at us.
“I asked if I could stay with her, but since I’m not family I can’t. The nurse said visiting hours were over, and that I had to leave,” she told us.
“Okay. That’s fine. We’ll come back tomorrow then,” I said. Frank shook his head and we walked back down to the parking lot.
We walked outside the entrance doors and saw that people were standing around something. I walked over to see what was going on, when people from the hospital pushed me and everyone else aside. They lifted the person onto a stretcher and rushed inside. Somehow, through all the madness, I saw who it was; Nikki.
I guess Frank had seen her too, because he and Danni were rushing over to me. We all ran inside after, and were stopped at the emergency room doors by nurses.

I sat there thinking about when I found out Amy was pregnant with Nikki. She walked up to me at school one day and she looked rather pissed off. She pulled me aside out of the way so that no one else could hear us.
“You're such an ass hole!” she yelled at me.
“Um... Thanks? What did I do?” I asked.
“Remember that party we went to a few months ago? And do you remember what happened?”
“Yea. How could I forget...” That was a terrible night....
“I hope your ready for a kid then...”
“Amy! I told you I wanted to help you with the baby, and not to tell this loser.” Her now boyfriend said.
“No! It's not your responsibility. It's this bastards. I mean, he practically raped me,” Amy said back to him. What in the hell is she talking about? She got me drunk and into bed.
“You know what Amy? Fuck you,” I said.
“We already went there!” That's all she said and her and her boyfriend walked off.
I was brought out of my flashback by a tapping on my shoulder.
“Are you Mr. Way?” a nurse asked me.
“Yea,” I said. She nodded and said to follow her. I left Frank and Danni and went with her down a hallway and into a room. I saw a doctor standing next to a bed where Nikki was laying.
“Sir, can you explain these bruises on your daughters arms and torso?” the doctor asked me once I was fully in the room.
“Bruises? What are you talking about?” I asked moving closer to see what he was talking about. The doctor moved in front of me, blocking me from getting any closer.
“I don't want you anywhere this child until the police show up,” he said, grabbing a hold of my arm.
“What are you talking about? I didn't do this! It was her fucking mother and that boyfriend of hers.” I yelled.
“Do you have any proof of this?” the doctor asked me.
“Just wake Nikki up and ask her!” I yelled again.
The doctor walked over to Nikki and woke her up. He asked her if I was the one who beat her and she shook her head.
“No. No, it was my mother and her boyfriend. They do the same thing to my sister, Danni. You can ask her too,” Nikki confessed. The doctor shook his head and walked over to me.
“I'm sorry for falsely accusing you of this crime. Do you know any way of getting a hold of her mother?” the doctor asked me. Right when he finished that sentence, Amy walked in the door.
“Nikki! Are you...” she stopped and looked at me. “What in the hell are you doing here?” she yelled.
“Looking after my daughter, what are you doing? Come here to beat her up some more?” I said.
“What are you talking about? I don't hit her! I love her more than anyone else! She's my angel. Isn't that right, Nikki?” Nikki looked at me and shook her head.
Just then the police walked through the door. The doctor pointed at Amy and they hauled her off, kicking and screaming.
