Chapter 2: the hospital
It was cold as we flew though the windy night air, there were no clouds around but all I could think about was seeing my mum and dad lying on two tables pale, not moving, and not saying anything.
It was silent till Rudolph looked to me seeing me upset hurt him but he didn't show it and then he spoke in a low tone. "Are you okay, Jessica?" I couldn't barley hear him for the wind.
"I don't know what to feel Rudolph my heart is in my mouth right now" I shouted over the wind.
"Okay then, how did you come to live in Scotland." Rudolph asked trying to change the subject off of my parents dying.
"Well my father, are a golf course designer and he took a job here so we had to move with him." I explained to the pale boy that was holding me up.
"Did you like living were you where before here." he questioned tightening up his grip on my hand.
"Well I had friend there, here I get picked on," I went on to talk about my parents. "And my mum didn't hit me in America; she seemed to hit me more when father wasn't around."
"She hits you, no mother should do that." Rudolph yelled looking down at me.
"Well she can't now, there's the hospital sir" I said pointing down at the big building in front it was dark but full of lights.
We landed in the near by forest so on-one could see us, it was cold, dark and damp, so I tuck hold of Rudolph's hand it didn't help that it was cold too but soft. As we start walking I pulled Rudolph behind for a moment before asking him. "Will you come in with me, you the only one that I know the most out of your family?"
He turned to face me with a straight face but couldn't help but smile and say. "Sure, Jessica I'll come." He gave me a kiss on the cheek before reaching for my hand again.
As we walked I couldn't stop think about why he gave me a peck on the cheek, well I can say he is quiet cute, but I can't like him, but I do. OMG, I like a vampire and he looks too young for me. "Hay Rudolph, how old are you." I asked him in a small voice."
"Well I'm 15 years old, and I have been the same age for 390 years." He answered and I looked at him and said "you look pretty cool to say you've lived that long.
"I'll take that as a complement, thank you," he said turning to look at her and examine her face. "How old are you?"
"I'm 17 and have been for 3 months, why d--" I was interrupted by Rudolph
"You look… good looking ya know." He said taking another look at her before walking.
Before we knew it we where standing outside the entrance to the hospital, I took one deep breath before I began walking. Into the dim lighting in the hospital I walked up to the desk to be met by a woman.
"May I help you, miss" she asked
"Yes, I'm Jessica and my parents were in a car accident" I answered in a low tone looking down at the mucky floor.
"Yes, let me call the doctor for you." She said picking up the phone to call him.
When he arrived and introduced himself we started walk down long corridors full of colour, I didn't hear what he was saying but thankfully Rudolph and his parents were. When we got there, there were two doors separating me from my parents and I stood there for a few minuets before Rudolph grabbed my hand. "Ya ready, Jessica, I'll be with you." Rudolph said giving my hand a soft squeeze.
"Yeah, let's get it over and done with." I said turning to push the door open and walking in. What I saw next is what I didn't want to see. When I walked in I saw my mum and dad lying on two tables side by side, they were pale and it hurt me deep to see them. I think Rudolph could tell that my heart broke because when he looked at me I started to cry, so he took hold of me and pulled me into a cuddle and I could do nothing but cry in his arms.
After a few minuets I gave both of my parents a kiss on the cheek and walked out, holding my head up high though my face showed stains from my tears.
