Marshall limped into the Emergency Room after...
No, No, don't think about it.
His nose was bleeding and his face was badly bruised... He was also having trouble walking.
"Hey... I... I need an x-ray, I think I broke... I think my leg is broken." He sputtered through his tears, explaining to the receptionist.
"What happened?" The woman asked.
"My... Well... I fell... Tripped. Downstairs." He lied.
"Take a seat, we'll get you in as soon as we can."
Marshall sat in the waiting room, starting to cry full on now. He pulled out his phone and with shaking hands quickly dialed Jamie's number.
"Jamie... Pick up..." He sobbed.

From god-knows-where in the city of Pasadena, Jamie picked up his phone.
"Hey Moosh, what's up?"

"I'm... I'm in the hospital. I need... I n-n-need you to be here." He stuttered.
"Please, I'll explain it all when you get here."

"Shit." Jamie hung up the phone.
Less than 5 minutes later, he burst through the hospital doors. His eyes fell on Moosh, who was beyond messed up.
"What happened?" He demaned.

"My mom wasn't home when I got there, Buck was." Moosh began, and he was talking fast. Reeeeeally fast.
"He's never liked me, cause he's a redneck maverick homophobe, but since my mom knows I'm gay so does he and when I got home he was really drunk and he got really out of control for some reason and he... He..."
Marshall went silent.

Jamie began pacing back and forth with his hands behind his head - a sort of ritual he had for when ever he was exceptionally angry.
"Son of a bitch. I swear to god, if he wasn't part of your mom I'd shred him to pieces."

"My dad wasn't home..." He began again, slower and quieter this time. He looked over towards the reception desk.
"I told them I fell..."

"No one in their right mind would believe that." Jamie retorted.
"You look like a kid who got beat up, bad. Has a doctor seen you yet?"

Marshall shook his head... And winced. It hurt.
"I can't tell them my mom did it. They'll institutionalize her. We don't want to lose her, I can't do that to her, to my family. I need to lie."

"Alright, alright." Jamie nodded, still pacing.
"I'll be right back." He walked back out the automatic doors from which he had entered.
Several minutes later, he returned holding onto his right hand, which was covered in blood.

"Jamie! What the fuck did you do!?" Marshall stood, trying to run over to Jamie, but his leg gave out and he collapsed onto the floor.
"What the hell?"

Jamie wiped off some of the blood on his shirt.
"I fractured some knuckles and broke some skin when I beat you up, remember?"

"What!?" Marshall shouted, probably a little too loudly as he pulled himself up off the ground.
"You'll get arrested for assault! I already told them I fell, you don't need to do this, I don't want you to take the heat for this."

"The hospital is gonna notify the police anyway." Jamie looked over his cracked knuckles.
"It's obvious you didn't fall, Moosh. They're going to ask questions. I have a history of violent behavior. It works."

"Jamie, I'm not letting you take this... I was wrong to call you here I guess..." Marshall sighed.
"Thanks, but no thanks. Just go."
