She looked at him when he said that as she was thinking about it, she didn't know what really was going on there... She didn't even know if she had a job.

Ashlynn: I don't even know if I stil have my job, sweet.y.

She said after what he had thought she had done, and wasn't sure what he found out....

She was a bit shocked when he said that as she just nodded a little bit as she turned looking at Henry, pretty afraid of him now as she was thinking about everything.. She then looked down at Edward.

{Ashlynn}- You should be resting, The doctor wants you off that leg as much as possible, for the first week.

She said not wanting him to get hurt as she started to carry him back towards the house, to Henry....

She bit her lip a bit, but nodded as she followed him inside, she waited where he told her too as he took the boy to his room, she stood there playing with the bottom hem of her shirt a bit, nervous not sure what to expect as she was waiting....

She nodded a bit as she was sitting there, she had no idea he was pushed, she had only gone by what she had been told when she found him... Which was outside to begin with, but she did't say anything as she was just looking down at her fingers a bit as she wasn't really sure what to say....

She shook her head as she was sitting there..

Ashlynn: I"m not hurt.

She said as she wasn't... She had a little bruise on her cheek and her lip had dried blood from where he slapped her, but she wans't in any real pain or anything.....

She thought about it.

Ashlynn: I told Edward I'd stay.

She said as she wasn't going back on her word to the boy....

She nodded as she was thinking about Edward as it made her smile a bit.

Ashlynn: I like Edward, he's a good boy....

She nodded a bit as she was thinking about it.

Ashlynn: Good.

She said as she started to stand..

Ashlynn: If that's it sir, I'd like to get going home... I have to be up early to do chores..

She said , still afraid to be alone with him, and just wanting to be able to be alone and think....

She looked at him when he said that, he didn't make her feel all that safe as she shook her head after a moment.

Ashlynn: No, that's alright, I'll just be xtra careful..

She said as she started to leave... Heading out the door to her truck as she was thinking about everything.

She thought about that man... Remembering that Henry had said Charles said it was her that had pushed Edward as she shook her head wanting no favors.

{Ashlynn} I can fix it myself... I dont' want him near me.

She said knowing she was justified in that as she was heart broken he would have blamed her like that, as she just went to her truck and started to see what the issue was, when she realized it was just a spark plug missing she went into the back of her truck pulling out a spare she had and put it in....

She nodded as she was thinking about it.

Ashlynn: I will....

Instead of Ashlynn on the phone it was a man laughter as Ashlynn was laid out on the floor, the man hung up the phone and then grabbed her carrying her out...When Ashlynn came too she could hear crying she groaned out a bit opening her eyes as she was looking around some, when she saw Edward she crawled over to him.

Ashlynn: Shhh, sweety, it'll be okay.

She said looking around the room, they were alone for the moment so she got up, she was sore from the beating, but looked to see what she could find, when she couldn't see a way out, she picked up the night stand breaking it as she picked up the leg to use for a weapon.. When the man came in, she attacked him with hit, knocking him out... She heard another man as she head behind the door telling Edward to be quiet, as when the man came in.. She hit him over the head too.. She ran over to Edward and helped him out as she went locking the door and then running out with him, she looked around seeing a set of car keys as she took them then ran outside... She helped him in the car and then started it up, driving to the hospital so Edward could be checked out..

She had the nurse call Henry and the police while she was there with Edward who was getting his leg recasted... They gave him something to sleep so he wouldn't feel the pain.. ....

She shook her head as she was standing there..

Ashlynn: No it's alright, i'm okay.

She siad not wanting them to waste time on her when there were others out there needing the attention.

She thought about it as the nurse gently touched her arm and lead her out of the room to another room to be examed... She had to have a couple x rays done of her arm and ribs, as she was then sitting there as they were taking pictures of all the bruises , bumps and cuts as she didn't say much just letting them do it.

She nodded..

Ashlynn. A couple broken ribs and a dislocated shoulder...

She said as they helped her put her coat back on so she could go..

She nodded as she thought about it, from how it was sounding they didn't catch the guys..

Ashlynn: Alright.

She nodded as she thought about it... She got in as she carefully buckled up as she was a bit sore, they stopped at her place being careful as she got what she needed as they were soo again driving off to the hotel he had checked into.

She thought about it as he was helping her to the suite, she stopped though and wennt back to Edward as she hugged him and kissed him goodnight , seeing he had woken up a bit, and was wanting her too, Henry did the same as he then helped her to the room...

Ashlynn: It doesn't matter to me where I sleep, I just want to soak in a tub for a bit.

She said as she was sore and felt in need.

She shook her head not wanting to have her leave the children or anything, she felt she would be alright.

Ashlynn: No, I'll be alright.

She said as she slowly took her coat off setting it on the bed.

She looked at him as she nodded as she waited a moment and when he was gone she carefully took her clothes off setting them aside, she put on her robe as she walked into the bathroom, she filled the tub up with hot water, and waited a bit, she then took the robe off as she carefully got in, laying there, she groaned out a bit as she laid back, just letting the hot water do its thing.

She sat up a bit when she heard him, as she was thinking about it.

Ashlynn: No thank you, I'm not very hungry, and I"m getting ready to get out of here, anyways.

She said as she had been in there for a little while.. She let the water out as she carefully stood up, she dried off, as she then slipped back into her robe as she then slowly emerged from the bathroom.

She gave him a small smile as she was thinking about it.

Ashlynn: Thank you.

She said as she went sitting down on the bed.

She thought about how horrid her day had been, from him coming home, from that guy breaking into her own and beating her up and then fighting to get out of that place with Edward, but at least everyone was alright... that was the good part.

Ashlynn: Yeah.

She said as she laid there as he covered her up as she looked at him.

Ashlynn: You don't have to go out of your way for me or anything, I don't expect you to owe me anything, or anything like that.

She said hoping he wasn't only being like this because he felt he had too after what had happened..

She looked up at him when he said that as she smiled a bit hearing him say goodnight then.

Ashlynn: Goodnight, Henry..

Ashlynn was where she had spent most of the night, in the bathroom with her head in the pot... She had been vomitting most of the night, mixture of pain, being dizzy, and the pain meds, as she was just on her knees holding the thing as she was just wanting it all to stop

She nodded as he went helping her up into bed... She was feeling really bad right now as she laid back just closing her eyes a moment...

She looked at him when he said that as she nodded a bit as she didn't want him to fuss over her or anything as she was laying there.

Ashlynn: I'm alright, just from being hurt... can't move as fast as i did.

She said thinking about it....

She looked at him a bit shocked when he said that.

Ashlynn: I am not dieing...

She said as he smiled walking in and was looking her over, seeing she had  a bit of a fever...Not uncommon though seeing the trama she had..

Ashlynn: I'm sure it's nothing, I just moved faster than what I should have.....

She looked at him as she nearly threw up again when he did that as the pain was that bad as he saw how high it was...

Ashlynn: The guy stomped on me pretty good.

She said as hse knew she had busted ribs already....

She nodded as she looked at him.

Ashlynn: A little....

She frowned a bit when he asked as she didn't really want too, but she could see how worried he looked as she looked at Henry who was nodding his head, saying that she would go back as they helped her up out of bed, and to Davids car, as she started coughing and throwing up a bit, it was really hard to move.

She looked at him when he said that as she nodded thinking she could stay still.. She took a breath as he started the test she did cry out a a lot but she did stay still it was tough but she did it, she was pretty much passed out from the intense pain by the end of his testing.....

She was in and out of it for most of the night, when she was awake she was in so much pain, and had to be given something so she could at least be comfortable for awhile... When morning came she was finally more awake, and in less pain, but she could barely move.

She nodded as she remembered what David had said as she was laying there, she was hating this but didn't want to make it worse.

Ashlynn: I want to go home.

She frowned as she thought about it.....

She frowned a bit as she didn't really like all this attention she wasn't use to it, she had been a quiet and private person until all this started to happen, she was in so much pain, she looked as David came back, checking her over and giving her some more meds to help her... Knowing it would be easier ot take her back to the hotel when she was out...

It was hours before she woke up, she was feeling better as she looked around a bit, she moved a little being careful and testing herselfout a bit.

She was diffently not wanting that... She was laying there staying still as she was looking him as she was thinking about everything.

Ashlynn: I'll stay still.

She said as she was laying there not wanting any more surgiers or anything.

Ashlynn: I'm sorry for all the trouble I've caused.

She said feeling bad that she had to have so much care and attention.....

She smiled softly as she looked at him as she was thinking about it.

Ashlynn: It's alright hunny, it was all worth it , to know you're alright.

She said as she touched him carefully with her hand making sure to not really move......

She smiled a bit as she looked at him, she looked to the bathroom.

Ashlynn: She doesn't seem to really like her job...I'd hate to keep her around if she doesn't want to be here.

She said thinking about it, as she was able to move a bit and was being careful and didn't really want to trouble the woman when she didn't seem to really want to do it.....

She shook her head as she was thinking about it... She didn't want her to be miserble though.

Ashlynn: I don't think so either.

She said as the nurse did say for one more day before Ashlynn was finally well enough to move on her own, she was still having to be careful and not over do it, which she made sure to do, she stayed in bed for the most part......

She smiled softly as she looked at him.

Ashlynn: I'm feeling better, thank you

She nodded as she knew he was right...

Ashlynn: I know... I'll take it easy....

She smiled softly as she looked at Edward.

Ashlynn: I'm getting there sweety, I feel a lot better now than what I did.....

She smiled when he said that as she was thinking about it... She liked Edward and was glad that he was alright.

Ashlynn: He's a good boy.

She smiled warmly as she looked at Henry thinking.

Ashlynn: Have they caught the men yet?

She asked wondering what was going on there, knwoing they couldnt' live in the hotel forever, something was needing to be done.

She was a bit shocked they had been at her house as she looked at him thinking about it.

Ashlynn: My house?  What where they doing at my house?

She went white when he said that...

Ashlynn: They burnt down my house...

She said as she was trying to stay calm, and not burst into tears.
