Chapter 2
BEEEEP went the alarm…on SATURDAY. "uhhh" I moaned. Bret was gone. But he was somewhere doing something...probably eating…always like him. I got out of bed well his bed really. I walked around the hallways to find the bathroom. I think I found it I thought. I turned the doorknob and walked in and saw Bret brushing his teeth. I was about to pull my pants down to go to the bathroom and there he was brushing his teeth. "um I like a need to go to the bathroom" I said "oh sorry" he said as he walked out of the bathroom and closed the door. When I came out he was already down stairs eating his third plate of waffles. I sat down next to him and gave him a morning kiss in front of his mother. She just sighed and went back to making waffles. I was thinking does Bret have a father? Well, after breakfast Bret and I took a walk to the park. He just held my hand and said the usual like you're so pretty and stuff like that… until we sat down at the bench. Then he held my hands in his and said "I love you Crystal". I said "I love you too Bret". Then he touched his lips to mine… and right then and there we kissed. All of a sudden my father…the one that was supposed to be in jail grabbed my arm and pulled my away and whacked me in the head. I began to cry. Bret said "get away from her". Then my father pulled me off to the side and whacked me some more. I began to cry harder. Bret stared at me while I cried. My father screamed "stop crying". I fell toward the ground crying. Some people stared and tried to help but my father pushed them away. Some guy called the police and told what happened. The police came and took my father away. Then they took Bret away while I screamed after him…and the police "let him go", the police didn't listen to me. I jumped on one of there backs and screamed "LET HIM GO" with tears rushing down my face. Finally they let him go and the father broke loose from the police's grip and hit me. I fell toward the ground. I lay there. I heard everybody rushing around me. Bret screamed for help. Then I woke up in the hospital again but not in intensive care unit. Bret just sat there watching me in sadness. I looked at him and said "I want to go home with you Bret". Bret didn't answer he just hugged me. I saw his mother outside my room 108. Then she walked in and said "the doctor said you may come home today but you must be careful because I fractured my leg. I tried to move. It hurt to move. I said "can you help me up and out of his bed". They helped me out and into the bathroom. Then I changed into jeans and my favorite t-shirt. I limped out of the bathroom and sat in the chair outside my room 108. Then there was no room for me on the backseat so I had to sit on Bret's lap. When I got home and into Bret's living room I turned on the news and of course there I was the new story. I just couldn't wait for school because everybody will be like "oh my god is you ok?" Just kidding I'm not excited about going to school on Monday. Everybody will be all over me it's going to be terrible. It's Monday and I'm just walking into the school doors. I walked in the doors. Everybody stared at me and gave me a sad look or whispered to the person next to them. I scanned everybody's face even the teacher's. I couldn't take it even the most popular girl felt sorry for me which NEVER happens. I limped fast to the bathroom. Kate walked through the bathroom and hugged me and I hugged her back. She was my friend. Then I walked well limped to class. Everybody stared at me. I just yelled "STOP staring at me". They tried to stop so I left the room at just sat in the hall. Bret saw me and we just left school and walked home. His mother saw us and just left us alone. All of a sudden my legs felt like jelly and went numb. I told Bret" Bret… "I can't feel my legs". He just looked at me and screamed "MOM come here HURRY". She came running and she said "what". I said "I I I cant feel my legs". WE ran toward the car and rushed toward the hospital and ran inside the Emergency Room and screamed" HELP". The nurse's cam running toward us and Bret told them "she can't feel her legs and getting dizzy and starting to go unconscious". They put me into a gurney and then I tried to breath but I couldn't. They realized that and started running while pushing me to the clearing. They started to do CPR but in wouldn't work. They rushed me to the cat-scan room. They tried to as fast as they could but nothing showed up. Then, I started breathing out of nowhere. But before I knew it I was is Acoma. I could hear the beeping of all the machines. I heard Bret and his mother crying there eyes out. I also heard nurses rushing around me. I couldn't move. My body felt like it weighed 5 million tons. A few months passed and Bret visited me everyday after school. He promised me he would never date again. I felt like I was going to cry. Then all of a sudden I felt a tear falling down my cheek. He saw that tear and called for the nurses. They were in shock. All of a sudden I opened my eyes. Then It was my whole body. I called for Bret. He turned around and looked at me. Tears began rushing down my face. The nurses ran out of the room grabbing my doctor. He just said that I had to just stay in the hospital for some tests about what happened. They found out that nothing was wrong. It just all happened because of my mother and father. Some more days passed and I went home. It felt so good to finally be home. Then as I walked in the door something happened. Something that you would never expect.
