Victorique exploded into Pontmercy & Co. and totally saw Thorn there. "Thorn! Your brother! He's in the hospital, in critical condition no less! There was a car wreck!" she had just been at the hospital with Jagger but she knew she needed to tell Thorn. But she had no idea how to contact him so she took a bus all the way to the building. "Come on! We have to goooo!" she said and exploded into her car.

Thorn was staring at Victorique like she was insane, then he suddenly smirked and screamed, "YES! I AM GOD! I CAN SMITE PEOPLE!"
But Victorique was already gone. Quickly Thorn tried to catch up with her. He jumped into the passenger's seat.
"Hey, I have a question," he said, "Why can't I remember what happened yesterday?"

Victorique really didn't feel like explaining. So she just played the lie she'd thought of yesterday. She was freaking out because Jagger was in the hospital, so she wouldn't look like she was guilty of a lie. "You passed out. Who knows why. I guess you were just exhausted." she said and sped off to the hospital.

"Hmm..." Thorn muttered. He doubted her explanation, but decided not to say anything at the moment.
"So what happened with my brother? How did you know about this? It's pretty early in the morning." he went with instead.

Victorique didn't want to get into a car crash herself, so she slowed down while she explained, "We were going to go get breakfast, and he wasn't scanning the road like Jeff would have told him to." she said. They were nearly at the hospital! yay!

"Oh, because that makes sense." Thorn complained. He crossed his arms over his chest and pouted like he was a little boy.
"I still didn't get my motorcycle..." he added, glaring daggers at the older girl sitting next to him. Life wasn't fair. His brother always came before he did!

"Your brother is in the hospital and you're still worried about your motorcycle?" Victorique nearly exploded. That was so terrible! These brother's had issues. If she didn't know that before, she definitely knew it now. And they needed to CALM DOWN. "We'll get it later!" she nearly screamed. It was ridiculous that he was being this childish!

Thorn continued to glare at the girl as he said, "Well it's not fair! Jagger always came first in everything, no matter what it was! Even though we're away from our parents, it's still the same. Besides, he's not dead, right? He'll be fine. He never comes to see me when I'm in the hospital!"
That, he knew, was only because visiting hours were during his work hours. Jag had always called him while he was in the hospital, but that wasn't a fact that Thorn planned on throwing out there anytime soon.

"He's pretty freaking close! Aren't you worried at all?" Victorique said, and turned sharply into the hospital parking lot. She picked out a parking space quickly then leaped out of the car, and waited for Thorn, tapping her foot on the tar. She hoped nothing had changed in the twenty minutes or so that she had been gone. She would feel so awful about it!

Thorn braced himself as she turned, and slowly got out of the car. Realizing that Victorique was going to leave him alone, he sped up a little bit to walk beside her.
It's not that he didn't care about his brother! He was just upset and jealous and lightly tired and pretty fucking hungry.

Victorique was allowed into the room where Jagger was. She walked in and looked at him, and felt terrible! If he didn't go to pick her up he wouldn't have had to scan the road and he wouldn't have gotten hit by a car. Victorique felt even worse that she had made it out nearly unscathed. She only had a few cuts and scrapes that were still only slightly oozing blood, and a bruise or two.

Thorn waltzed in after Victorique. Seeing his brother lying in the bed had some sort of effect on him though. The older boy was bandaged almost all over. It looked like almost every bone in his body was broken thanks to all of the casts he had. He was hooked up to so many wires and machines it was unbelievable.
"Is he dead?" Thorn gasped. He was openmouthed and staring at his brother in shock.

Victorique shook her head no and pointed at the beeping machine next to Jagger's bed. "No. He still has a heartbeat." she said, and relaxed only slightly when it seemed he was in a somewhat more stable condition than when he had first arrived. "Oh gosh, I hope he'll be okay... I feel so bad about this...!" she said, mostly to herself, as if saying what she was thinking out loud would help make it happen.

Thorn paced back and forth in the room. He didn't know what to think of all of this. If his brother died, he wouldn't know what to do. He would die without his brother, he relied on him for everything!
"What are we supposed to do now?" He asked Victorique. She was the only one who was smart enough to do anything in his situation.

Victorique shrugged, then collapsed in one of the chairs that was in the room. She put her head in her hands and started balling her eyes out. She felt so bad about this! She took the entire blame for it. Why couldn't it have been me? she thought in her head, over and over again. Victorique felt like such a bad person. It had all happened so fast! She didn't even see it coming.
