16. loss

WHILE HAWK WAS ENJOYING HIS victory of standing up to Robby, Violet's situation was not looking well.
She got a call from Martin that her parents were involved in a life-threatening accident.
Martin was driving as fast as he could to the hospital while Violet sat in the back, hopelessly frustrated and scared about how her parents are doing.
"Martin please drive faster." Violet was anxiously waiting to arrive at the hospital.
"We are here Violet. Go inside and I'll find parking." With that, Violet printed out of the limo and into the waiting room of the hospital.
"Hi, how can I help you?"
"I-I'm Violet Ocean and I'm here for my parents. They g-got in a bad car accident. Do you know how they are doing?"
The nurse started to flip through her computer and had a sympathetic look on her face, giving away that something was wrong.
"I'm sorry Ms. Ocean, but your parents passed away once they arrived at the hospital. I'm so sorry for your loss."
Silence. All Violet could hear was silence. Denial took over her body, not trying to comprehend the fact that her parents are dead and she is now an orphan.
"W-what? N-No I just talked to them this morning they aren't d-dead."
"Ma'am I'm so sorry for your loss. Is there anything we can do or call someone?"
Martin ran into the ER room and he saw the distraught look on Violet's face and it broke him into millions of pieces.
He has seen Violet sad before, but this was different. The people he worked for are dead and their daughter is now orphaned.
The very first thing he wanted to do was say he would adopt her, but this was not the time now. So he did the most logical thing possible.
He engulfed Violet in a hug who was sobbing uncontrollably.
"Martin, please tell me this isn't real."
Martin's heart dropped when Violet said that. He hugged her tighter and tears started to fall out even more.
*❀❁❀*
The news of Violet's parents' death was not easy information to handle. She has not been at school for three weeks and kept leaving people on delivered.
Robby kept texting and calling her, but he stopped after several days. Violet even didn't answer Demetri's and Miguel's calls.
Martin was Violet's only family left and he felt a pang in his chest, knowing that he was going to have to be a mom and dad in one. It was nothing new to Violet since her parents were barely there for her, but it still hurts to hear that her parents are dead.
"Violet, darling, can I please come in? You need to eat. I'm worried about you." Martin put his ear next to her door, but he heard nothing so he walked in to see Violet on the floor hugging her knees to her chest.
"I don't want to eat Martin. I just want to sulk in my depression." Martin rolled his eyes and gently grabbed her arm then pulled Violet to her feet.
"Please, I have to get ready for a date ." Violet whipped her head and smiled brightly at Martin. This was the first time she smiled ever since the accident.
"Oooo, okay Martin. So, who's the lucky guy?" Violet could see the blush on Martin's face.
"Well, I met him at the grocery store and he is literally the cutest man I have ever seen," Martin said, dragging out the last part.
"I wanted to tell you about him a while ago, but that was when the accident happened." The mood was gloomy for a bit until Violet changed the subject.
"So, when are you going out on this date hmmm? What's his name?"
"His name is David."
"Very sexy name," Violet said very exaggeratedly which made Martin playfully glare at her.
"Ha ha, I know. By the way, you have a visitor."
"What?! Who is it? I'm not expecting anyone."
"I wasn't thinking he would be coming either." Violet furrowed her eyebrows in confusion.
"Eli is here." This was the part when Violet immediately got up from her spot and tried to fix herself up before greeting Hawk.
"Martin, go to your room and talk to David or whatever. I don't care. But get out please okay thank you bye."
She pushed Martin in his bedroom and walked down the stairs to see Hawk sitting on her couch, fidgeting with his fingers.
"Hey Eli, what are you doing here?" When Hawk heard Violet's voice, he immediately stood up and engulfed her in a passionate and long hug.
"Vi, oh my god, I was so worried about you. I called you every day and you never answered so I got really worried." A small smile appeared at the edge of Violet's lips, happy at the thought that Hawk cared enough to see her.
"Thank you, Eli, I mean I'm still grieving but I'm getting better I suppose."
"Of course, I also got you something to hopefully cheer you up." Hawk put his hand in a bag and pulled out mint chocolate ice cream.
"Oh my gosh, you remembered from when we were kids that I love mint chocolate. Thank you, Eli."
"Of course, Sharkie." Hawk grabbed her waist and pulled her into another hug which Violet gladly accepted.
The pair still stood in the hug for a good 30 seconds. Hawk was the first one to pull away and he stared intently into Violet's eyes. He saw a shimmer of gold glow in her eyes which made him fall for her even more.
Little did they know, Hawk was starting to lean in, then Violet leaned in as well, their lips inches apart from each other.
Just as they were going to kiss, Martin popped up literally out of nowhere which startled the kids making them back away quickly.
"Violet, I will be going on my date now. Eli, I think you should leave now." Hawk nodded then kissed Violet on the cheek which made her blush.
"I'll see you later Vi." Hawk was walking towards the door, Martin following behind him.
Hawk was already out the door and Martin was about to shut the door, but he turned around once more to see Violet flipping him off.
He smiled evilly and flipped her off as well.
Ughh I love Violet and Martin's relationship omg. I'm also picking up my kitten today! omg, I'm so excited.
