Thank you to all the people who reviewed on the first two chapters and I really tried to hurry with this one. I hope you like it….
The next day Gabriella woke up with her head aching terribly. She felt dizzy and tried to get up. She looked around and her exes caught her pillow.
It was all blood stained.
She just looked at her pillow for some seconds til her headache brought her back, out of her thoughts.
She raised her hand to her head and started to touch to the back of it. Then she flinched, she had reached the place where she had hit the ground yesterday at Chad's house.
She looked at her hand and saw blood slowly trickling down her index finger.
She started to panic. "OMG, my head…it didn't stop bleeding all night!"
Gabriella let out a scream, short but very loud and soon her bedroom door opened.
"Hunny what's wrong? Why did you scream?" Her mom came in and hugged her daughter then she started to stroke over her head – she touched the bleeding part of it.
Gabriella flinched and let out a short scream.
Her mom looked at her daughter's head and saw a big cut.
At first her mom was speechless but then she could manage to bring out a sentence.
"Hunny, where did you get that cut? It's bleeding very badly."
Gabriella had to think of an excuse, because telling her that Chad had pushed her down and making her head hit the ground that hard was not a good idea.
"I fell down in the park on my way home yesterday evening; I didn't realize it was bleeding til now."
"Hunny, we have to go to the hospital."
Later in the hospital.
Mrs. Montez POV
I sat there in the waiting room.
Worried if my baby was okay, that cut was really bad, so I didn't wonder that it took long til a doctor came up to me.
"Mrs. Montez?"
I stood up. "Yes?"
"Hey, I'm Doctor Blackwell. And I have some news about your daughter."
"Oh, please tell me she's okay!"
"Well, it was a very deep cut on her head, but we could fix it with eight stitches. So, yes, she's going to be okay."
"Thank you so much!"
"Did she mention where she got that cut from?"
"She fell down at the park she said to me."
"Oh, okay…you can see her now if you want. She's awake."
"And when is she able to go home again?"
"She has to stay for two days, so we can make sure that the cut is healing. But then she can go home again."
"Thank you."
I walked to Gabriella's room and entered.
The girl in the bed still sleeping. I didn't want her to awaken so I closed the door very carefully.
I sat down on a chair and just looked at her for some minutes, and then I took her hand.
Gabby's POV
I woke up by someone taking my hand. I didn't know who it was.
Afraid it might be Chad I opened my eyes only a bit, hardly to realize for the person who was there. Then I saw it was my mom and opened them fully.
"Mom…" I spoke above a whisper, my head still ached terribly.
"Hey Hunny, how are you?" She looked at me with a warm smile.
"My head is aching, but apart from that I'm feeling okay." I tried to talk louder, but I couldn't.
"Glad to hear that. But I'm sorry; you have to stay for two days, so the doctors make sure your head is actually healing.
I sighed but not because of disappointment, no; I sighed because then Chad wouldn't be able to hurt me. "It's okay mom, I'll make it…"
"Good."
I saw that my mom looked at her watch, she normally only does if she has to be somewhere because of her job.
"Mom? Don't tell me you have to leave?"
She sighed and looked at me with sadness in her eyes. "I'm sorry, but I'll be back soon."
She kissed my forehead and stood up.
"Bye Hunny."
"Bye mom!"
She left and I was alone again.
I sighed. I hated being alone; it made me feel vulnerable.
The hours passed on and nothing interesting happened.
Then at about four pm, the door to my room opened.
All my friends came in. Chad, Sharpay, Taylor, Zeke, Kelsie, Martha, Ryan, Jason and even Troy.
Chad's POV
I came into that hospital room and saw that girl, who used to be my girlfriend lying there, smiling at the fact that we all went to visit her.
I walked over to her bed and placed a soft kiss on her lips. Again she tore apart soon after her lips had touched mine.
I walked back and looked at her. Then Taylor began to speak.
"Gabby, we have been so worried about you…"
"You can't imagine!" Sharpay added.
Gabriella just lied there and smiled. "I'm sorry guys. But I just realized that cut on my head today I the morning and I had no time to phone one of you."
We kept on talking about random stuff.
Finally, after three hours the girls had nothing left to talk about and so we all made out way back home.
"Bye Gabs get well soon." The girls all said and hugged her.
I was the only one that didn't say good bye to her. I waited til everyone was outside the room and walked to Gabriella's bed. I could see she was afraid of what I might do.
Gabby's POV
Everyone left. Except for Chad.
He walked up to me and had a smile on his face.
Out of his expression I could see he didn't regret the fact he brought his "girlfriend" into hospital.
He stopped and just stood there. Looking at me almost proud that he managed to hurt me that much.
"So Gabriella, we need to talk." He spoke slowly.
"What about?" Although I could talk normally again, I only whispered in a shaking voice.
"About the same topic as yesterday evening. How you and I act in public." He looked at me in a serious way.
"Okay, what did I do wrong?" I knew what he was going to say, but I didn't dare speaking it out.
"You know what happens if you disobey me?" He raised his hand to my head. Although the cut was covered I could feel his hand on it.
I whimpered. This made him laugh.
"So you know what happens right? This was only the beginning. I have many ways to make you obeying me. And I don't think you wanna know all of them." He still talked serious.
Then he finally took his hand from the cut and smiled.
"So, I have to go. But don't forget. Don't tell anyone. I heard you were clever enough to say this" He pointed my head "Happened on your way home from the park. Clever you!"
With these words he kissed me. But he didn't miss the chance to bite my lower lip.
I winced in pain.
He got up and walked out of the room.
I sat there for some minutes to think what just happened.
How could I've been that stupid? I had the chance to end this all and then I lied.
I sighed and started to cry.
Suddenly the door opened again.
Okay, I hoped you liked the third chapter. Please review.
