Title: One Step Forward
Author: Jami Lynn
Chapter: 12
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the wrestlers used in this story, 'cause if I did, I'd be busy with them right now *grin*. But I do own Jami, for she is me. Tasha owns herself. (Heaven help the person who tries to claim he/she owns either of us). This is the sequel to "Take That Step" and "One Step Back" you'll find the addresses to those stories in my signature at the bottom of this email. And I use the wrestlers wrestling names in the story, JUST DEAL WIT IT! And don't bother suing me...all you'd get is a half eaten ham sandwich and a bag of chips from 2 years ago.
Distribution: Ask me if you can use it, more than likely I will say yes.
Rating: So far, it's a PG-13
Content: Nothing bad as of yet, probably won't be anything to bad either....maybe some cussing.
Spoilers: Um...anything can happen and I'm just writing as I go, so I don't know yet *L*.
Summary: Edge has been rushed to the E.R. Will he be okay? Or, will this story end sooner then we thought?
Feedback: I need feedback like I need air! So give it to me, babee!

"I'm Dr. Lesion. I'm the E.R. doctor who first saw Mr. Edge when he was brought in." the doctor began. Tasha jumped up and faced him. "Just tell us. Is he alive?" she asked harshly. Lita pulled her back down into her chair.

"Yes, Edge is alive. As I was saying, he has a serious head injury. There is some swelling around the brain. Right now he is comatose, but he is breathing on his own. Right now the only thing we can really do is wait. We'll see if the swelling goes down on its own. If not-we'll have to try to reduce it surgically. Right now he is in ICU." the doctor told them, glancing around the room.

"Can we see him?" Tasha asked. "yes, but only 2 of you at a time please. And keep your visits brief. And you should try talking to him-there is some evidence that comatose patients can hear. You are all welcome to use the ICU waiting room." the doctor told them before leaving the room.

A nurse led them up to the ICU waiting room. "Which two want to go in first?" she asked. Everyone looked at Tasha. As she stood, she reached a hand out to have Jami accompany her.

Tasha quietly walked into the sterile cubicle where Edge lay. He looked so peaceful, like he was sleeping. His blonde hair was no longer tinged pink. It rested gently against his pillow in soft waves. His eyes were closed and his long eyelashes lay against his tan cheekbones. Tasha placed a hand to her mouth to keep herself from screaming at him to wake up. Her blue eyes quickly filled with tears that she blinked back rapidly.

Jami stepped next to the bed and gently held one of Edge's hands. She gently stroked his cheek before turning to look at Tasha, who looked frozen to the floor. "He looks like he's asleep, doesn't he?" Jami whispered to her. Tasha barely nodded. "Come on over here." Jami motioned her closer.

Tasha stepped to the other side of where Edge lay and grasped his other hand tightly. "Come on E. baby. You gotta wake up. We all need for you to wake up." Jami whispered to him.

Tasha looked on, fear clouding her dark blue eyes. "Edge....please....wake up. Please." was all she kept saying over and over again. Finally Jami wrapped an arm around Tasha and led her from the room.
