it's been a few weeks since I met Sammy and Shannon invited me to spend the day with both of them, so I started getting ready. Once I'm finished I'm just waiting for Shannon to pick me up. I see Alex watching TV in the living room, she's watching the news and there are cops at a house and it seems quite familiar, the police were going to the other side of the Street and the reporters turn on the camera and I see that it is Shannon's apartment. I stay in shock and tears start streaming down my face. Alex stands up and goes for her keys."come on. Let's go see if they're okay."I just not and stand up.
                          
After a 10-minute drive we see lots of cop cars and I get out of the car and see an ambulance drive away and one more arrives. Alex comes up to me and we go to the cops to look for answers."what happened here"Alex speaks."I'm sorry mam but we can't give details to people except reporters"my girlfriend and friends ends live there so tell me what the hell is going on."I yell at this point"mamcalm down look someone broke into the house and two of them were injured I'm not sure who they were but let's head to the hospital to see if you can help identify them."I was about to go with the officer until I saw someone on a stretcher coming out of the house. Alex and I went to see who it was and we saw Jess and she was unconscious. Then we see Megan and Amy come out of the house.I soon realized that if two people were injured and one of them is out here and my friends barely came out of the house I instantly breakdown and Alex hugs me to try to comfort me. I just saw more knowing that Shannon was hurt even worse we were supposed to go visit her daughter what is she going to think and I started to worry more. Moments later we were at the hospital waiting for news from Shannon and Jess well we were waiting I decided to ask Amy Megan what happened."guys what happened back at the house." They just look at each other and sigh."we were having early breakfast cuz we wanted to have a beach day and Shannon was going to get Sammy so she could join us.. but when we were about to finish we heard a gunshot and we immediately on the floor but Shannon was getting ready to go pick up the little one..so I think she was the one that called the police but when she came down he was just standing there waiting and pointing a gun at us he started yelling and made us sit on the couch and we did and once we sat down he started talking about his problems but the three of us we're just looking at each other we were confused and the only one responding was Shannon so we thought that it was between both of them but we kept listening to his threats and he started to point his gun towards Megan and I and before we knew it we heard that he fired a few times."Amy stop telling me what happened and started uncontrollably sobbing but Megan continued."we were hugging each other and we suddenly heard groans.. jess and Shannon stood in front of us and they took the shots. the police got there and got the guy. they called an ambulance and we were trying to keep them awake but by the time they got there they just close their eyes and they brought them here."she ended. I'm just in shock but we just stay silent waiting until we hear "Jessica paneton". A doctor says and we all stand up Megan speaks up."we're here for her " "Okay, she was shot on her hip but she's okay and she'll be up in the next hour or two if you want to see her she is in room 114" we all nod."and for the other one Shannon she is still in surgery we will keep you updated."he leaves and we stayed silent for a while. 30 minutes have passed and still nothing. The girls went to check on Jess.
                          
5 minutes later I see a familiar blond come into a waiting room was Cammie."what happened." I stand up and we hug while I was still crying."Shan-Shannon an-and Jess where sh-shot."I say and she hugs me tighter. "Who called you?"I ask curiously. She sighs and looks worried . "Kara was watching the news while I was getting ready for work but I heard a crying coming from downstairs. I went to go check and Kara was comforting Sammy in her arms and she was crying really hard and she started yelling Mommy. When I asked what was going on, she told me the Sammy was playing in the backyard with the dog and came inside she didn't notice that she was watching the news with her and she saw what was going on and told me to look at the TV. And I saw Shannon coming out in a stretcher and I just saw Sammy break down it was horrible and I came here."I got more worried knowing that the girl was aware of the situation."where is she now?"she is with Kara at my mom's house I couldn't bring her here it would be too much for her."she answers and soon after a doctor comes out. "Shannon Beveridge"we go up to him and he starts speaking."well she's out of surgery and she is stable for now she was shot on the side of your neck and luckily didn't hit anything important and she was also shot in the chest. She was also lucky that it had one of her ribs and didn't hit her heart, but.. we don't know when she'll wake up she's in a coma and we just have to wait and see what happens." "Thanks doctor"."she is in room 115 if you want to see her"we nod and we headed to her room. We see her laying there and see her there just broke my heart even more. We stayed there together until Cammie had to leave to see her family. "Poor Sammy how devastated will she be."I say out loud

It's been 3 weeks and still nothing I have to leave to work they called Ali to see if she could be here while I went to work so she's coming. While I was waiting for Ally to come I was on my phone until I heard something I heard her heart monitor and it started beeping faster. I saw Shannon move really violently so I had outside. "somebody help I need a doctor!!"I yell and a doctor her he's inside with more people. They make me wait outside but I just see them working but I can't see her. moments later I see the doctors coming out of her room." Well miss she had a seizure but she is stable for now let me know if anything else happens." he says and I nod. I see Ally come and I tell her what happened. "Don't worry if anything happens I will call you and please leave cuz you smell and need a shower before you go to work so hurry up you'll be late."we both laugh. I like when ally always lightens the mood but I can see that she's really worried so I had to work well I go home cuz I do actually smell. Once I'm at work I have some meetings and I start recording. They told me that if I keep it up I will probably leave for a tour. But I get more worried what if Shannon doesn't wake up till then I know I have her friends here her mom came the day after she heard the news she had to fly from Dallas to Los Angeles. I hate the fact that I had to meet her mother this way but she's really sweet and she also looks a lot like her. I come back to hospital and see a doctor walking in her room I speed walk to her room and i see ally walk out with her phone and I hear my phone ring so I guess you was calling me. She looks up at me and she seems really happy."Shannon woke up."I just barge into the room and see her. I see her beautiful blue eyes again. She smiles at me I see her beautiful smile I get closer."hey baby i thought you were with me I was a little disappointed that when I woke up I saw Ally and not you I thought you left."Ally makes an offended face and we laugh at her."I thought we had something special."she says and we laugh at her sarcasm."well I did need to leave I had to go to work and finish some stuff." "Shit I needed to go to work how long have I been asleep." "3 weeks." "Shit and I had so many meetings." "Don't worry bro I already went to all your meetings you have nothing to worry about." Ally says ."and that's why you're my right hand thanks bro."they give each other a fist bump. "what?" Shannon asks me."it's nothing I just feel a little left out cuz I don't know where you guys are talking about and I thought you worked at home and what do you do that you have so many meetings." "You seriously don't know what I do?" "no actually don't know we've been together for months and I still don't know you that well." "Well where do I start mmm I am a photographer I also own 'now' you're even wearing my my clothing line and even half of your closet is 'now' "well I just wear comfy clothes it's actually pretty cool so and you never mentioned it" "mine and Ally's face come on fucking billboards and you didn't know seriously and even the fucking clothes that you wore for the photoshoot was part of my clothing line." "Well I didn't even know I just looked cool in those pictures so what else do you do."well as you know I do YouTube too I own some liquor stores around the country and I'm also Ally's manager and she's my right hand." "so you're more important that me I'm supposed to be the famous one"we all laugh."well at least we know that you're okay and you woke up that's all I care about...
