As The World Turns

We sat outside, it was a nice day. “Yo! Check this shit, tell me what you think,” Marshall said holding out a paper with words scribbled on it. “It’s for my new album The Eminem Show,” he said.
“Oh oh oh! LET ME SEE!” yelled Liz jumping up in front of Marshall and waving her arms in every which way. Then all of a sudden “BANG!” a gun was fired. Liz fell to the ground.
“Shit!” Marshall yelled, forgetting there are kids around.
“Oh my God!!” I cried. I looked over at the car that had the men it in, the man glared at me then sped off quickly. I couldn’t see his face. Everyone outside stared freaking out. The kids were hiding under the table. I knelt down by her, she wasn’t breathing and there was blood everywhere.
“Marshall call 911!!!” I yelled loudly. There was a huge crowd of people gathered around. He nodded and pulled out his cell. He talked to the police for a while.
“They on their way!” he said loudly over the people and knelt down next to me. I looked at Marshall with tears in my eyes; he pulled me into a hug.
Finally the ambulance arrived. They took Liz in the back of the ambulance. Marshall, Hailie, Michael and I drove to the hospital. After waiting for about 5 hours the doctor finally walked out of the room. “How is she!?” I asked jumping from my seat.
“Carrie…I’m sorry to have to tell you this but…” the doctor started.
“No,” I whispered.
“I’m very sorry, she lost too much blood. We did everything we could,” I looked down at the floor and began to cry. “Is there anything I can do?” the doctor asked. I was too upset to answer. I slowly walked over to Marshall and put my head on his shoulder, he wrapped his arm around me hugging me.
“I got her, its ok,” Marshall said. We began to walk out of the hospital. “Let’s go kids.” Marshall said motioning them to follow us. He still held onto me until we got to the car. We all piled into his car, I sat in the front seat staring out the window.
“Mommy, are you ok?” Michael asked.
“I’m not in the mood honey,” I mumbled still staring out the window as Marshall strapped Michael in the seat.
“Ok,” Michael whispered. Marshall got into the car, without saying anything he started it up and we drove off.
((YOUR HOUSE>>))
“I think I’ll stay here tonight, it’s late,” Marshall said carrying Hailie into Michael’s room.
“Yeah that’s fine,” I said quietly as I placed Michael onto his bed next to Hailie, he has a full size bed so they both fit.
“And I can sleep on the couch,” he said as we went into the living room. He took off his shirt and hung it on a chair. He laid down on the couch, I handed him a blanket. “Thanks,” he said taking it, he covered himself up to his waist, he closed his eyes. I stared at him for the longest time, he looked so sexy…I really wanted to just go and lay by him. I sniffled; he opened his eyes and looked at me. He sighed.
“I’m gonna go to my room, if you…get lonely…you can come in, I probably won’t sleep,” I mumbled wanting to cry again. He sat up and looked at me.
“I don’t think that would be appropriate,” Marshall said sadly.
“I know,” I frowned.
“But if you’re not gonna sleep why don’t you come over here,” he suggested. I slowly walked over and sat next to Marshall on the couch. I sighed he pulled me into a hug and I began to cry again. Marshall adjusted himself on the couch and I was pretty much laying on him. He didn’t say anything while I cried…and not long after I cried myself to sleep.
(((MARSHALLS POV>>>)))
Carrie just fell asleep, I decided to let her sleep, I pulled the blanket on top of us adjusted myself so I could sleep, then fell asleep soon after.

I woke up hoping that last night was all a dream, I looked down, and Marshall was still asleep. I looked at his phone that was sitting on the coffee table; it was already 9:30am. “Marshall,” I whispered poking him, he opened his eyes and stared at me. “Morning,” I said with a small smile.
“Morning. Did we?” he questioned. I gave him a funny look and shook my head. He laughed a bit.
“No, but we had a sleep over,” I said with a smile.
“Oh I remember now, I must have been tired, I know you were,” he said, we finally sat up. He turned on the TV; I ignored the TV, and just stared at Marshall. After about two minutes he finally looked at me. “Hi,” he laughed. I didn’t say anything, I just stared at him, he stared back, he slowly leaned in towards me stopping half way I leaned in the rest of the way and we kissed, we stared to make out…
“Oooooohh,” the kids said, we pulled away and stared at them.
“Hi, Michael, Hi, Hailie,” Marshall and I said at the same time.
“Mommy, me hungry.” Michael said sitting next to me.
“Me too!” Hailie said and sat next to Marshall.
“Ok, I’ll make breakfast,” I said getting up and going into the kitchen, the other followed. I opened the fridge, there was nothing. “Or not,” I mumbled, Marshall peeked around my shoulder.
“We could go out to breakfast,” Marshall suggested. “We just have to stop at my place so Hailie and I can change,” he said.
“Ok sure,” I smiled, me and Mike got dressed then we headed over to Marshall’s. We got to his house, we walked in…. “Oh wow, this is a beautiful home,” I said as I sat on the couch.
“Thanks!” Marshall yelled back as him and Hailie went upstairs to get dressed.
