Read Between the Lines

Six!

"Where's Perry?" Paul demanded,barging through the door.
"She said she was going to walk around." John shrugged.
Paul started pacing nervously.
"What's his problem?" Martin asked.
"I don't know." Brian scowled,walking in behind Paul.
"I had this bad feeling.Something's wrong with Perry." he said,running out the door.
"Paul!" Martin called.
Paul ran.He felt like his heart was beaking and he didn't know why.
"Perry!" he yelled,running.
Perry jerked her head up.How long had she been out? She heard her name and she knew it was Paul.
"Paul!" she screamed,not being able to move her body.She felt to weak.
What had happened?
"Paul!" she screamed louder this time.
"Perry?" he yelled.
''Paul!" she sobbed,scared. "Paul!"
Paul could tell by her scream that she was hurt.He felt tears fill his eyes.He couldn't find her!
"Perry!"
"Paul!" she sobbed loudly.
"Perry!" he sighed in relief when he found her and ran towards her.
"Paul." she sobbed again.
He ran towards her just as she blacked out.
****
"What the hell happened to her?" Martin frowned,pacing through the lobby.
Paul had his head in his hands.He was hiding his tears.Guys didn't cry! Paul DeGiovanni did not cry! The doctor told him that she'd lost a lot of blood,and he didn't know if she'd make it or not.The more he let his mind think about that,he started sobbing.The more he sobbed,the more he got frustrated with himself for being weak,which caused him to sob more.
"Whoa,man!" Martin said,setting down next to Paul.
Martin had never seen Paul upset,and he'd known him for a really long time.
''What if she doesn't make it?" Paul demanded.
"She will!" Martin assured him.
The doctor walked out into the lobby. "Perry Johnson's husband?"
"You told them you were her husband?" Paul looked up at Martin.
"I wanted to be able to see her when she get's out of surgery.And I wanna know what's going on." Martin shrugged.
Paul couldn't help but laugh.He knew Perry would,too.
Martin walked over to the doctor.
"She was shot in the chest 4 times.She was stabbed in the leg 34 times.She's lost so much blood." the doctor sighed.
"Is she ok?" Martin demanded.He felt like he was going to fall.Who would do that to Perry!
"Right now,I don't know." the doctor shook his head and walked away.
Martin sat down right there in the middle of the hospital lobby.
