CH.2
Rosalie POV
Everything hurts as I start waking up. I hear beeping close to my head a lot of voices in the distance before I open my eyes. When I try to open my eyes only one opens. The bright light above my head hurts my eye. I blink a few times trying to adjust to the light. Once my eye is adjusted I look around and realize that I'm at a hospital. That's when I feel the oxygen mask on my face. I see wires and tubes coming off me in every direction. I try to move to grab the call button but it hurts too much. I try to call out to someone but my voice is just above a whisper. As I try to call out again an older nurse with salt and pepper hair walks through the door and sees I'm awake. She goes out the door again and calls for the doctor.
"Dr. Cullen will be here in just a minute." She says when she walks back in. She walks over and checks the monitors. A tall, well-built man that looks like he no older then forty with light blond walks in a minute later.
"Hi, Miss Hale I'm Dr. Cullen. How are you feeling," he asks?
"It hurts all over," I whisper. The nurse hands me a glass of water, I take a sip. It helps with the dryness but doesn't take away the pain.
"Well yes, you have sustained some very serious injuries. You were out for quite a while. I'm going to ask you some questions to see how you're doing. First do you know where you are," He asks
"At the hospital." I whisper.
"Yes. Do you know what year it is?"
"2015."
"Yes. Do you remember anything before waking up here?"
"The last thing I remember is leaving the library." I tell him even though I remember everything that Royce did to me while I was conscious.
"Well Miss Hale a campus security guard found you beaten and unconscious on a bench by the science building. If you had been there any longer you wouldn't have made it. You came in with three broken ribs, one of them had punctured your lung. You have a severe concussion. You have a broken left eye socket. A broken nose. Scratches and bruises all over. It also looks like you have been sexually assaulted too. We were able to repair your lung and your eye. You been unconscious for the last four days. I'll order something for the pain."
"Do the police know who did this to me," I ask not really sure if I want the answer to the question.
"Not yet. They do want to talk to you when you're feeling up to it. Your parents should be back soon they just step out to get some coffee. If you need anything just press the button. I'll be back in in a couple of hour to see how the meds are working." He says handing me the call button.
"Thank you doctor." I say and he leaves the room. A few minutes later there's a knock on the door and the nurse came back in with the medicine. She put it in my IV. I start feeling some relief instantaneously. As it starts to spread through my body it dulls the pain to a manageable level. Before the nurse leaves I ask her for another drink. When she returns, my parents are with her. My mom looks like she hasn't slept.
"You're awake." She says relieved. "I'd hug you but it would probably hurt."
"Yea."
"You scared us. We didn't know if you were going to wake up. How did this happen to you? Who would do this to you." She says on the verge of tears. Royce did, the guy you guys think can do no wrong. I think to myself.
"I don't know. Last thing I remember is leaving the library." I tell her because I know she wouldn't believe me if I told her truth.
"Did you say something that would make someone want to hurt you."
Yea I told Royce goodnight and he didn't like it. I think before saying, "No all I've been doing lately is studying."
"Maybe someone wants to hurt Royce so they took it out on you."
Yeah because it couldn't be Royce that did it he doesn't do anything wrong in your eyes. "I don't know." I say sounding almost defeated
"Honey she just woke up leave her alone with all these questions. Her brain needs more time to rest." My dad says. I mouth thank you to him. He gives me a small smile.
"I'm sorry Rose it just I want them to catch the one that did this to you."
"I know you do. I just don't remember anything right now."
"OK. I love you."
"I love you too." I yawn as the medicine finally gets to my head.
"I think we can head home, we know she's going to be okay now. She needs her sleep we'll come back in the morning" My dad says.
"Okay. Just promise you'll wake up again."
"I will mom."
"OK then we love you and we will be back in the morning." She says. They both kiss my semi-good cheek before leaving.
Once they are gone a tear falls from my eye knowing this is not going to turn out good no matter what happens. I fall asleep shortly after they leave. Dr. Cullen came in and checked on me a couple times. He orders a morphine pump after the second dose didn't last too long.
****two days later ****
The last couple of days my parents came by in the morning and evening to check on me. I'm doing a little better. My eye isn't as swollen now and I can breathe without wanting to cry. I tried putting off talking to the police for as long as I could but I couldn't any longer. They are coming in a half hour to talk to me. I know I'll stick to the story that I've told everyone else. I just wish I knew what they were going to say. I watched TV and picked at my lunch while I waited for them to come. My stomach was in knots so I wasn't hungry. There's a knock on the door.
"Come in." I say and in walks Dr. Cullen.
"How are you today."
"I'm okay. The pain is not as bad."
"That's good. If you keep progressing, you might be able to go home by the end of next week."
"I hope so then I can make finals."
"As long as you take it easy you should be able to."
"I will."
"Good. If you need Just let me know." He says before he leaves.
I go back to picking at my food until there is another knock on the door. This time it's the detectives.
"Miss Hale?" A short woman with brown hair asks as she and an older man enter the room. I nod. "Hi I'm Detective Wynn and this here is Detective Walters. We are the detectives on your case. Now Dr. Cullen already told us that you suffered a concussion so is there anything you remember."
" The last thing I remember is leaving the library to go to my dorm room."
"Okay. We got the rape kit back and the DNA matches three other cases from the past couple of months. We are still going through surveillance tapes from the school. We are also looking for anyone that might have seen you that night. "
"Now Miss Hale is there any one that might want to hurt you or is there any one that might have a grudge against you," Detective Walters ask?
"Not that I know of," I lie.
"That is fine. It's just with the extent of your injuries it looks like the attack was fueled by rage." He says. It was I think to myself.
"Was anybody following or paying more attention to you before this happened?"
"No not really. I've been spending most of my time at the library getting ready for finals lately."
"Okay just a few more questions. Do you have a boyfriend or girlfriend? "
"Yes, Royce King is my boyfriend but it couldn't be him he's one of the nicest people I know." I say calmly but inside I'm panicking.
"We are not blaming him. We just need to know. There maybe someone out to hurt him so they attacked you."
"Oh." I say relieved.
"I'm going to give you my card if you remember anything else just give us a call."
"I will and thank you."
"We let you know if anything new comes up. Thank you for your time." She says and they both leave.
Once they leave I relax a little and try to process what they said. Though I didn't tell them I know who did this to me. There is no way Royce raped three other people. Of course, before now I also didn't think he could do this to me either. I guess I never truly knew him.
A/N: Did it turn out like you thought it would? Let me know in the comments. Hope you liked it. Thanks again.
