Car rides are usually more interesting when you know where you're going, but in my case I have no idea where I am or where I'm headed and I couldn't be more thrilled!

"Mom can't you just tell me where we're going?" I whined childishly.

"No, but I can give you a little hint/clue, some of the people we are going to see are old dear friends of mine, and they live close to an old and close friend of yours." she said.

"Thanks that helps soo much!" I said sarcastically. I pull out my ipod and shove the ear buds into my ears. I turn it on and quickly fall asleep to the music that my friends insisted on putting on it and are making me listen to it. It feels like I have only been asleep for an hour when I'm jolted forward banging my head on the dashboard. I open my eyes and wish I hadn't. I will never be able to forget what i am seeing right now. Blood and smoke is everywhere. Through the smoke i see a deer, its laying half way on my mom's car and half way on the ground; its HUGE! Oh man MY MOM! I try to move my head to see if she's all right, but I'm too weak. I managed to move my head a little slowly only to see my mom slumped over the steering wheel.

"Mom!" i yell weakly. She groaned in response. I know i have to move, I have to get help. I try to move my left hand, but cant; it hurts way too much. So I drag my right hand over my lap and put in into my left pocket. I pull out my cell phone, dialed 9-1-1 and hit TALK. It rang two times before someone answered it.

"911 whats your emergency?" the woman operator said

"We need help!" I reply.

"Ok whats your name and where are you?"

"I'm Sydney Jacobs and my mom is Sophia Jacobs, i don't know where we are, but there is a GPS tracker on my mom's car."

"Ok hold on. I'm sending help now. Is anyone else there with you two?"

"No its just my mom and I."

"Ok well i want you to stay on the line with me until help gets there."

"O..k." i say weakly. "I hear sirens."

"Ok I'll let you go now, goodbye."

"Bye thank you." i hung up and shoved the phone into my pocket.

"Hello... are you okay?" a man said.

"We need help!"

"Ok hold on." CLANG CLANG, i hear a noise, but i don't know what it is. Suddenly I'm grabbed and pulled out of the car. When I'm out I try to open mt eyes, but all i see are big blobs of things, which i think are people.

"Where's my mom?" i ask.

"She's safely in the back of one of the ambulances." a man tells me. I relax a little knowing she's safe. Then i'm put on one of the stretcher beds and put into the other ambulance. The doors close and we drive off. I'm too weak to stay awake so i close my eyes and drift off. When i wake up I'm in a hospital bed next to my mom in another hospital bed. I look around the room and see familiar faces.

"I'll go get the nurse." one of them said, its Taylor. When she gets back she brings a nurse.

"How are you feeling? Can you talk?" she asks me.

"Where...am...I?" I asked with a raspy voice. it hurt to talk a little.

"Your at the Forks E.R." she told me.

"Whats wrong with me?"

"You have a cut on your lip that we stitched up, a bump on your forehead, a broken arm and your back went out of place."

"Oh my god. All of that happened to me because of a dear?"

"Yes."

"Hows my mom?"

"well she has a stitched up cut on her head, a sprained wrist and her neck is a little cracked on the left side."

"Is she going to be ok?"

"Yes i can promise you she will be just fine! and so will you."

"Thank you."

"I'll go get your doctor."

"Ok." i said. The nurse left.

"Sydney are you ok?" Taylor asked me.

"I think I'm ok."

"Oh thank god! we were all so worried about you guys when you never showed up. We called you, but no one answered. We heared ambulances go by and we got a bad feeling so we followed them. When we saw the car and you guys in the ambulances we broke down."

"You said 'we broke down', who's we?"

"Everyone in this room." I looked around the room, I never really noticed all the people in here; most faces i didn't even recognize.

"Oh sorry, but i don't know everyone in this room." I admitted.

"Well that's ok, they all know you."

"Um, ok."

"Since you don't know them I'll introduce you. That's Sam, Seth, Quil, Billy, Jennifer, Amanda and Johnny."

"Hi." I said to everybody.

"Do you remember me?"

"Of course I do Billy. Your my mom's friend."

"That's right!" just then my doctor walked in.

"Hello everybody." They all said hello.

"How are you Sydney?"

"I'm fine ."

"I want you to follow my finger with your eyes only ok?"he help up a little light and one of his fingers. I followed it back and forth and back and forth.

"Ok, now I'm gonna check you head, if something hurts let me know."

"Ok." he grabbed my head softly and felt all around.

"OWW, that hurts." I told him.

"Ok." he kept a finger on the spot and took a closer look. he grabbed a pair of tweezer things and held them to my head."These might be cold, but don't worry." he put them on my head and I cringed a little at the coldness. I felt him pulling on something, but i didn't know what; all i knew was that it stung a little.

"That stings."

"I'm not surprised." he brought his hand back down and showed me. "You had a little piece of glass from the windshield in your head. let me go get a needle and ill fix that." he walked out.

"Ugh this is horrible." I sighed.

"Don't worry honey it'll all be over soon." Billy said trying to comfort me, it worked a little. I turned my head to look at my mom her eyes are opening now.

"Mom, can you hear me?" everyone looked over to her.

"Yes, I can." she said.

"Someone please get her nurse." billy left to go get her.

"Mom how are you?"

"I've been better, but glad I'm alive."

"So am I."

"But how are you sweetie?"

"I'm much better now that I know your going to be ok." billy came back with Carlisle and my mothers nurse.

"Thank you Billy." I thanked him.

"No problem." the nurse walked over to my mom's bed and Carlisle came to my bed side.

"Okay now this might pinch a little.." he took the needle and thread and sewed up my cut.

"All done, how does it feel?" he asked me.

"Tight." everyone laughed. He grabbed an ice pack out of a container and placed it on my head.

"Ahh, that helps."

"Good." Carlisle said. "Are you hungry?"

"Yes."

"I'll bring you back a menu." he said before leaving. "Hey wait a minute, I just noticed something; where's Quil?"

"Oh, he uh...he had something he had to take care of." Sam told me.

"Oooh ok." I said a little sad he wasn't here, but I understood.

"So um.. How do you guys know each other?" I asked to no one in particular.

"Oh, well Jen's my sis-" I cut Taylor off.

"I know that! I meant everyone else." I told her.

"Oh ok well, Sam, Seth, and Johnny are the same as Quil. Johnny is actually Quils cousin, and Amanda's Jen's best friend.

"Oh ok." Carlisle walked in then.

"Here you go, pick anything you want and we'll bring it to you."

"Okay, thank you."

"I'll be back in a minute for your order." I looked at the menu, almost everything looked and sounded good.

"Mmm...meatloaf!" I said sarcastically cringing at the word. Everyone laughed.

"I hate meatloaf!" I said.

"Me too." Johnny said in agreement.

"Hmm I think i'll get the broccoli and cheese soup, my favorite!" Just then Carlisle walked in.

"Did we make a decision?"

"Yes can I have the broccoli and cheese soup please?"

"Certaintly. I'll go tell the kitchen."

"Thank you." i told him. he walked out.

"Well we're going to let you get some rest now, so we'll leave and come back later." Jen told me.

"Ok bye you guys, thank you all for coming to make sure we were okay and spending some time with me. They all said goodbye to me individually. I layed back in my bed and relaxed, waiting for my soup. I looked over at my mom and she had fallen asleep again. I would too if i wasnt so hungry.

"Here we go." Carlisle said when he walked in with my soup and bread on a tray.

"Thank you so much Carlisle."

"You're welcome! And if there's anything else you need, just press this button." He said pointing to a blue button on the side of my bed.

"Ok. Before you leave can you hand me the remote off the table please?"

"Yes." He walked over and picked up the controller and brought it back to me.

"Thank you." I said.

"You're welcome." he said and left. I picked up the remote and turned on the T.V. I turned down the volume a little because I didnt want it to wake up my mom. I flipped through the channel's until I found something I liked. I finally found a movie, "Jackass!" I love the show, it's so funny. I picked up my spoon and started eating my soup, mmm it is so good! I must have been really hungry because i finished quickly. I set the tray on the cart next to my bed and relaxed while watching T.V. Every once in a while I couldnt help but laughing out loud at the stupid but funny things they did. Then my door opened up a little.

"Knock knock." Quil said with his head stuck into the door.

"Hey, come on in." I said

"Thanks. It stinks in here!" he said walking over to my bed. He pulled up a chair to the side of my bed and sat down.

"What? I dont stink!"

He laughed "I know I ment because of the vampire smell."

"Ooohh ok!" I laughed.

"So how are you feeling?"

"Better."

"That's good im glad. So wait a minute you remember me, right?"

"Of course I do, how could I forget one of my best friends?" I said reaching my right arm over and messing up his hair.

He laughed. "Well I was just making sure. How long are you going to be in this place?"

"I dont know, I think Carlisle said two or three more days."

"Oh well thats cool."

"Not really, I wish I was out now."

"So do I." he told me.

"So how's your mom holdin up?" he asked.

"Pretty good, she's been asleep for a while."

"Oh ok."

"Im mad at you though."

"Why what did I do?"

"Because you left earlier. I mean I just figured there was something that came up with like the border or vampires or something, but you didnt even say goodbye." I told him.

"Im sorry. I just...I had something to do."

"Is everything and everyone okay?"

"Mainly yes."

"Mainly? Whats wrong?"

"Syd, this isnt easy for me to say, but I..."

"Quil please just say it, whats wrong?"

"I couldnt take it. You and-and-and your mom, just laying here. You guys are family to me, It hurt me too much to see you guys laying here hurt. It hurt me inside. You're a sister to me, I love you like my sister." he confessed to me.

"Aww Quil! come here." he leaned in close to me so our faces were about three inches apart.

"Look at me," he picked his head up and looked at me, "Were going to be ok. Thats so sweet how you care so much about us. And I want you to know that you're like the big brother I never had! I love you like a brother too!" I put my hand on his cheek and kissed it. he stood up and gave me a hug and kissed the top of my head.

"Im sorry."

"Stop appoligizing, you dont need to be sorry for anything."

"Ok, but hey guess what?"

"What?"

"I got a surprise for you!"

"Oooooo What is it?

"I cant tell you its a surprise!"

"Oh pwease!" i said to him while giving him the puppy look.

"No, I told myself I wouldnt let you make me cave, you have to wait untill you get out. When you get outt I'll tell you, or better yet show and give to you."

"Ugh! I hate you." I said jokingly to him.

He laughed "Love ya too sis!" He said.

"So how long are you going to stay?"

"Until you want me to leave."

"Ok, well I feel kind of silly asking this, but since this is my first night here... could you spend the night? Or atleast stay until I fall asleep?"

"Of course I can."

"Thanks."

"Sure let me just go home and grab a change of clothes."

"Ok i'll let them know you'll be coming back so there's no problems."

"I'll be back in twenty minutes."

"Bye."

"Bye." he said and walked out. Carlisle walked in.

"Hello how was your soup?"

"Delicious thank you. Oh Quil is going to come back and spend the night in here can you let the nurse know so they let him in with no problems?"

"Sure."

"Thank you."

"I'll have your moms nurse come back in to check on her ok?"

"Ok thank you." He must have known I was worried about her. He left and a woman walked in.

"Hello." She said.

"Hi, how is she?"

"She's just fine, but she will be sleeping for a while because of the medicine we gave her."

"Ok, I was getting worried I didnt know why she wasnt getting up."

"She's perfectly fine, but I will wake her up right now because she needs to eat something to make sure that the medicine takes well."

"Ok." She shook my mom lightly while calling her name. My mom woke up and rubbed her head.

"Sophia, I had to wake you up because we need to get some food in you.

"Ok." she said in her still sleepy voice.

"Would you like some soup?"

"Yes please."

"Ok is chicken noodle ok?"

"Yes."

"I'll be right back."

"Thank you." the nurse left.

"Hey mom how are you?"

"Tired." I chuckled

"How are you?" she asked me.

"I feel fine, my head just hurts a little."

"Ok, Why do I smell broccoli?"

"Oh I had broccoli and cheese soup."

"Ooh ok."

"I dont know if you remember, but everyone was here. They were worried."

"I remember."

"Do you remember quil?"

"Yes."

"Ok well he's going to spend the night tonight so if you wake up and see a big guy its just Quil. Oh and he got really big!"

"Ok i'll try to remember that." She smiled. I tried, but hurt my lip a little.

"Mom i'll be right back ok?"

"Where are you goin?"

"To the bathroom."

"Okay, be careful don't pull out any plug or anything."

"I wont." I pulled the covers off of me very caefull not to move my arm or pull out plugs. I sat all the way up and swung my sore feet over the side of the bed. I tried to shimmy down carefully, but accidentally bumped my arm letting out a little scream. My door opened.

"Whats wrong?" Quil said.

"That wasnt twenty minuets." I said.

"I know . What are you doing, are you ok?" he said rushing over to me.

"I'm ok I was just trying to get up to use the bathroom, but i bumped my arm on the bed railing."

"Oh well let me help you." he grabbed me by my waist carefully and lifted me up off of my bed.

"Be carefull with the cords." my mom said.

"Dont worry I see them." he said. he put me oh the ground and helped me walk into the bacthroom.

"Thank you, I think i've got it from here." he let go of me and I closed the door. I did what I had to do, washed my hands and walked out. When I opened the door he walked over just in case I needed help. When I got back to my bed he lifted me up and put me in my bed gently."

"Thank you,"

"You're welcome." he said with a smile on his face. He looked over to my mom. "Hey Sophia how are you?"

"Im fine Quil thanks. How are you."

"Worried."

"Dont worry about us we'll be fine."

"I know I just cant help it."The nurse walked back in and hended my mom her soup.

"Thank you." my mom said

"You're welcome the nurse said and walked out.

"Ugh." I said

"What happened whats wrong?" Quil asked franticly.

"Spaz much!" We laughed. "My head and arm are starting to hurt."

"Let me go get Carlisle."

"No its ok."

"But you're in pain."

"I got it!" I said and pushed the little blue button on the side of my bed. Carlisle apeared.

"Told you I got it." I said Quil laughed.

"Is everything ok?" Carlisle asked me.

"Actually my head and arm are starting to hurt. I know why my arm hurts, but I dont know why my head hurts."
"Why does your arm hurt?"

"Because I accidentlly bumped it when I got up to use the bathroom."

"Oh ok. I'll go get your medicine and be right back."

"Ok." he left.

"How's your soup mom?"

"It's good."

"Good." I laid back and closed my eyes.

"Are you tired?" Quil asked me."

"A little."

"Go to sleep then."

"But you just got back."

"Its ok i'll still be here when you wake up."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes please get some rest, maybe if you get some sleep you can get better and be out of here quicker. I understand you need rest."

"Ok." Carlisle came back with water and some pills.

"Here take theese, they should help." he handed me the pills and water. I put the pills in my mouth and took a few sips of water.

"Now these will make you drowsy so if you feel like you're falling asleep dont fight it." I looked at Quil he was looking at the T.V. with a smile on his face.

"Ok." Carlisle left.

"How did you talk to him?"

"I don't know what you're talking about?" he said with a grin on his face.

"Quil Bryan Ateara, dont you lie to me." I said jokingly.

"When you were in the bathroom he came in and I told him you looked tired, but I knew you wouldnt go to sleep with me in here so he said he would talk to you."
"You sneaky sneaky warewolf!" I whispered to him. He busted out laughing.
