There was nothing Ren could do but step out of the way as the doctors converged around Tori. He wanted to stay near her, to comfort her if she woke up again, but he knew he would just be in the way. There was nothing he could do for her now that he had managed to get her to help. Instead he just stared at the doctors like he could magically see through them and keep watching Tori. It wasn't until he was spoken too that he finally looked away.
It took him a couple seconds to process what he had been asked. "I'm her boyfriend." he answered, only half aware of the fact that he was answering his second questions first. "I don't know." he said as he looked at the floor. he wished he knew more. "She was coming to meet me, we were going to watch movies and just hang and she called me, which was weird because she had said she was on her way. I could hear screaming but I thought it was laughter at first. Like she had met some friends on the way, ya know?" he looked up at the doctor, looking for some type of reassurance. He knew he hadn't hesitated long but what if he had gotten to her sooner? would he have been able to help her more. maybe she wouldn't be as hurt. "I went looking for her because the call was so weird and I found her on the lawn like this. She was unconscious but she woke up briefly before she lost it again. I called her brother. He is on his way here." He fell silent for a long moment, staring at the floor. He both wanted Tay here, being that strong presence that he always was but he was dreading it as well. He didn't have any more answers for Tay than he had for this doctor and Ren couldn't help but feel like he had failed. He had protected Tori so many times before. But not this time. And this time she had really needed him. It was a while before he looked back up at the doctor.
"is she going to be ok?"
Tay's hand closed around Vi's as she slipped her hand in to his. Her soft skin was an immediate calming force. It was so comforting to know he had Vi with him. he didn't have to worry about her being in danger at all when she was by his side. Tay was always a kid that kept a level head in a crisis. Even though in this situation all he wanted to do was to rip someone's head off for even thinking about touching his baby sister.
At Vi's questions Tay actually thought back to the phone call with Ren. he hadn't actually heard much of anything he other kid had said, other than his vague attempt at a greeting when he answered the phone. "I never gave him a chance." He answered and he glanced at Vi. "I was more concerned with getting things moving."
It didn't take long for him and Vi to arrive at the infirmary. He could immediately tell that the normally calm atmosphere had been riled up. Was this all from Tori? Or had other people been hurt too?
