Speak To Me

(Jamie)

Could this shit get anymore fucking insane? I just don't understand what the hell is happening right now..

I barged through the hospital doors, my eyes darting around the room as I saw my father and John sitting in the private waiting area. John had his head in his hands and my dad was actually fucking consoling him. "What the hell happened?" I asked before walking up to my dad and father in law.

"There was a fire..Regina..she..she called talking nonsense..something about asking for forgiveness..that she didn't think Amber would actually do it..then I heard screaming." John said shakily before jumping to his feet and grabbing my jacket roughly. "Did you kill them Jamie? Did you kill my daughter?" John asked angrily, his hands gripping me tighter by the second.

I lifted my arms, gripping his wrists before looking John in the eyes intently.

"No John..I didn't kill them. You know I wouldn't do that to Gabriella. I wouldn't do a single thing that would potentially take me away from her." I spoke truthfully as John studied me carefully before breaking down and falling to his knees.

I knew if I went too far with Regina and Cecelia that it could land me in jail..and I wouldn't risk that..as much as I hated them..I wouldn't kill them because of my wife.

"Cece..my little girl..she's dead." He began to sob as I bent down and placed my hand on his back.

"We are going to find out who did this okay? I swear to you." I stated while glancing up at my dad.

Ray told me there was an accident..but I didn't realize it went to this extent..my guys are looking into it now..we had surveillance on the house but they had no clue how the fire started..they were the ones who actually called 911..

"Mr. Kensington..come with me, let's get you some water. Katrina should be out of surgery soon." A nurse said while helping John up before guiding him away.

I glanced towards my dad as he let out a sigh before running his hands through his hair.

"The fire took Regina, the grandmother and Cecelia." He informed me.

"Fuck..do you think Regina did this herself?" I asked my dad, making him glance towards where John just left and back to me.

"I wouldn't rule it out..her reputation was ruined...and if what she said about Gabriella's mom is true..maybe the guilt got to her." My dad added before patting me on the back.

"What did Gabriella say? She couldn't make it to the hospital?" He asked worriedly.

I looked away sheepishly..

I didn't want to tell her anything until I knew more..she just doesn't need to deal with this..luckily Jolie and Ray are with her now, at least that will keep her busy.

"Son..you have to tell her. She should be here for John..he needs the support." My Dad muttered, making me slip my hands into my pockets.

"I know..just..let's give it a couple of hours until we know Katrina's condition." I stated.

I can't believe this really happened..

Then my dad grabbed my arm before pulling me over to the chair and making us both sit down.

"The police believe there was foul play at work..they were all locked in a room except for Regina..she was found in another place...they are hoping when the girl wakes up that she will be able to answer some questions." He whispered, making me nod once while leaning back and grabbing my phone.

To Ray: Update.

I sent, needing to know about Gabriella's whereabouts or what she is doing.

From Ray: They are checking out at the register now.

He added before sending me a picture of my beautiful wife standing beside Jolie.

To Ray: Good, make sure she goes home right after.

I put my phone away and stood abruptly.

"Where are you going?" My dad asked making me glance over my shoulder at him.

"To speak with John about something." I informed him, making my dad clench his jaw.

"I think it's best to leave him alone..at least not until after Katrina gets out of surgery."

Fuck..he is right..a part of me wants to question him more about what Regina said..but I know that's insensitive. I should just hang back and show my support this way.

About an hour passed when John burst into the waiting room, making both my dad and I stand immediately.

"She is out. They have her in stable condition." He informed us as I let out a rush of air..I know this is shitty of me..and that I should feel something more..but I only felt relieved that Katrina was okay because it would be one less hurt for Gabriella..

I felt like a dick for even thinking that..but after what those women did to my wife...they were already as good as dead to me.

"That's great news John..she is going to be okay." My dad rushed to John's side before hugging him and letting John break down crying.

Then I felt her..I don't fucking know how or why..but I knew the moment the air shifted and my eyes widened in fear..fuck no..she wasn't supposed to be here..

"D-d-d-daddy." Gabriella stuttered before John pulled away and searched for his daughter immediately.

"Bunny." He breathed out, and I watched in horror as my wife ran straight past me and into her dad's arms. Her body was stiff and tense..and I could read her like a fucking book..she was mad..

I haven't seen her mad yet..like, not really mad..not like this.

Ray ran in a few seconds later as he looked towards me apologetically..

"Jolie sir.." He stated, letting me know exactly how she found out..Jolie must've found out and told her..shit.

"Gabriella." I whispered softly, making her head snap towards me as her eyes were filled with hurt and tears...fuck..the mere sight of her broke my damn heart.

"Baby, let me.."

"N-n-no." She said firmly, causing me to shut up immediately as my soul fucking shattered into a million pictures.

Then I watched as she pulled back slightly and began moving her hands smoothly, signing to her dad.

All I could pick up was go, and alone..

"Gabriella please.." I pleaded, hating that I did this to her..that I caused this anger and hurt.

I could feel her closing off..and after I saw the phone come out, I knew I was screwed.

"You promised me no more secrets. You lied to me Jamie." She wrote, her body trembling as I had to ball my hands into fists just to stop myself from touching her.

"I know..I just..I didn't want you to be upset." I rushed out, watching as she typed furiously.

"Instead of just being upset..now I'm mad, angry, furious and feel betrayed."

"I fucked up..I'm sorry.." I croaked, making her shake her head no before tears started sliding down her cheeks.

I have never felt so desperate in my life..I wanted to console her so fucking back..but I was the one who caused this.

"I just need some space..please..let me spent time with my grieving father alone."

I felt like I had just been stabbed..the pain those words inflicted on me were beyond anything I could explain as I felt a heavy hand fall on my shoulder, making me flinch.

"Come on son....let's give them some time together." My dad whispered softly before pulling me back slightly.

I watched in horror as my wife turned and walked away, not even looking back as she led her dad into another room..

"Dad..I think..I think I messed up.." I mumbled, tears starting to fill my eyes as I didn't know what to do..

What if she won't forgive me..what if...what if I just ruined everything?
