Ride

Walking with Katie, Hunter couldn't help his smile.  Conversation was lighter for a while and having someone to just be goofy with was... well, it was just nice. As they get back to the ranch yard and the ambulance comes into view though, Hunter's pulse quickens. That couldn't be good. Was it -

Too late to think. Katie was already running. Sprinting after her, he keeps a safe distance, unsure what was going on, but not wanting to abandon her either. Realizing that it was her dad that was in trouble, his heart aches a little. This wasn't good at all. She'd told him that her dad had been rather ill, but he didn't know anything more.

Angel brings his attention back up and he nods without hesitating. "Yeah... yeah, sure. No problem." Being told the directions, Hunter embeds them in his mind. They were out in the middle of nowhere here - it would be a fair drive.

Seeing Jeff placed on a stretcher and taken to the ambulance, Hunter sets a hand gently on Katie's shoulder. "Come on... give me your keys and we'll take your car, okay?"



Watching as Jeff is loaded up and the ambulance driving away, those who were gathered were tense and a bit shook up. It was unusual that anything drastic enough happened that Angel couldn't handle it. And knowing Jeff's condition on top of it... It did create a sense of fear.

Eric folds his arms, gritting his teeth. He'd heard the words "heart attack" from one of the medics but nobody had given them any more information. Easing over next to Rosetta, he looks at her with worry. "I see Katie and her friend there... who else is gonna go?"
