By the time they arrived at the ER, Richard had quietly sent a couple of text messages and made a few phone calls. When they pulled in, there were people waiting--including a couple of faces Richard had already accounted for.
Emerging from the car, he circled around to Brooklyn's side and helped her out, then lifted her back into the safety of his arms.
"Alex and I will be with you the whole time." he promised her, looking into Brooklyn's face. "Unless you say it's okay for me to go somewhere else. Agreed?"
