Chapter Seven
Tori POV
I woke up in a white room, a very bright white room. At first when I opened my eyes, I had to immediately close them again. I just looked into the light on the ceiling. Great.
The room smelled very...Clean? I don't know how to describe it. It seemed so sterilized.
I put two and two together and realized where I was.
I was in the hospital.
I went to sit up, but I winced, it hurt me so much to use my abdomen. Why? I looked down and saw the bandages wrapped around my stomach. Then I remembered. I layed back down on the bed. Beck must have been sitting next to me because he pulled his chair to my bedside.
"Hey, you woke up," he said in that cool, relaxed voice he had.
"Yeah, I guess, what time is it?" I asked. I wanted to know how long ago this happened, and it didn't help that he looked like crap, or like he hadn't slept for a while.
"Um," he said while pulling his phone out of his pocket, "About 1:15."
"In the morning? Why didn't you go home?" I felt bad now, because now it was my fault that he wasn't getting any sleep.
"Honestly, I don't know, I just felt like you hsould have someone here for you when you woke up. By the way, your mom and dad are out of town, well out of state; and I'm sure Trina is stalking someone, somewhere." So not even my family was here for me? Nice, VEga family, nice.
"Where is everyone else? And where did Cat end up running off to?"I was very curious. I hoped everyone else was alright.
"Well, Cat ended up running down the street to a park and when they found her she was swinging on the swing set. They are probably at home sleeping and don't worry about you car or your stuff, Andre already took care of it. Your stuff is in your car and your car is at your house. Oh, I have your keys right here," He finished as he pulled my car keys out of his pocket. He set them on the table right next to me.
"Uh, thanks..." I tried to sit up and again my stomach restricted my from doing so. I tried again, and this time, with excrutiating pain, I succeeded in sitting up.
"Tori, you don't have to-" I interrupted him. I wanted to walk around for a little bit.
"No,-ow-, it's okay."I said with a grimace on my face. I went to stand up, and Beck reached out to help me. I took his arm and used it to pull myself up, but then I let it go. I didn't want his help in the first place. I took a few steps out of the door, thank goodness that my robe was toed at the bottom, so my underwear didn't show, but I did feel a draft on my back. I assumed it was opened there.
I walked out of my room and saw the rest of the gang sitting, well sleeping, in the waiting room. I sat on the nearest bench, gripping my stomach, and soon enough Beck was sitting next to me.
"Well, I thought they were at home...Hey, mind if I ask you a question?" Beck questioned.
"Sure, I guess," I responded.
"Was Jade the reason you wouldn't come around us?" He asked in a serious tone. I decided to tell him the truth.
"Well, not exactly. I was allowed to be around Cat and Andre and Robbie, but..." I didn't know how to finish, but I didn't have to.
"Not me. Jade didn't want you talking to me. So, is that why you were trying so hard to get out of eating lunch with us?" He was beginning to piece it all together.
I didn't know what to say. I just looked at him. He took it as a yes.
"I see..." He started to drift off into his own thought. "But where did she come from to..oh, Tori," He got my attention. I knew what he was going to ask, "Did she threaten you."
This time I nodded my head. "Hey, you should go home, get some rest for school tomorrow."
I stood up (in pain:() and started to walk to my room to lay down.
"Tori, I don't know what to say, I'm so sor-" I cut him off, suprising him.
"Stop! Just stop. I do not want your pity, Beck. Besides, your apology doesn't amtter, you didn't do anything. I really want you to go now, I want you to go out and tell the others to go home, and I want you to stop worrying about me. now go." As I was saying this, I was pushing him out the door. Once I finished, I closed the door.
I felt really bad, I wanted to cry, but I held them back. I crawled back into the bed and the doctor came in.
"Ms. Vega, hello my name is Dr. Bell. I am here to tell you how bad your wound is. Now, you lost alot of blood, and it took awhile to replenish it for the fact that you have such a rare blood type. You were lucky that boy that brought you here was fortunate and generous enough to donate some of his blood for you. He was here awhile, too, did he go home?"
"Yeah, school tomorrow." I replied. Beck donated his blood for me? I will have to remember to thank him later.
"Well, you are released to go home, so...bye."
He began to walk out. "Wait, are you gonna tell me if it was serious or not?"
"Eh, ask your friend to tell you. I already went through it with him." Then he left. Wow, what a great doctor.
I didn't have anything to wear. I grabbed my phone off of the dresser next to my keys (i grabbed those too) and was about to call Trina when I saw the whole gang(minus Jade) waiting for me outside my door. Cat was holding my clothes and she ran nup to me and hugged my tightly, squeezing my stomach, which hurt, and then gave me my clothes. I was speechless, I thought they all left. everyone else came over and hugged me too, except for Beck.
"Hey, girl, I was so worried, I thought you would never wake up, sleepyhead," Andre said, laughing, while rubbing my head.
"Hey, Tor, I'm sorry for what I said before, about you breaking up the legendary duo of Beck and Jade," Rex said.
"I forgive you...PUPPET!"I knew he(the puppet) hated being called that.
"Hey,"Rex said. Robbie then stated,"You deserved that."
"I know..."Rex replied.
We all laughed, and then Dr. Bell walked past.
"Hey, Dr. Bell," I got his attention,"Do my bandages need changed or anything before I go home?"
"Uh, yeah. Have this young man do it," he was reffering to Beck, "He seems like he knows what he is doing with the whole doctoring thing." Then he ran off.
"What a great doctor," Beck commented, creating a wave of laughter amongst everyone.
"Well, Beck go change her bandages, then we can go to Tori's house!" Cat yelled.
"Uh, okay..," Beck pulled me into the room.
"Can I change first?"I asked.
"Uh, yeah, and when you are done, you cah undo your bandages and I will clean it again and put some new ones on."
"So, how do you know so much about "doctoring"?I asked and then we both laughed atht e ridiculous word.
"Actually, my mom and dad are both doctors, so I kinda picked up from them. You know, lots of 'Bring your kids to work days'"
I finished changing, and I left my skirt off, leaving me in my sports bra. I walked out and he didn't seem phased about it, and I didn't either. I yelled to the others, "You can come in and watch, you know, instead of standing at the door looking through the window."
Everyone came in.
"Hey, I dont wanna take it off!" I said. I really didn't wanna see it.
"Why?"Beck asked.
"I don't wanna look at it."
"well then close your eyes and I will do everything else. Does that sound like a plan?" he asked with a smirk on his face.
"Don't smirk at me, its mean!" I commented in a childish voice.
He laughed and then got to work. His hands went to the clip where my bellybutton is, and he unclipped it. Robbie immediately lowered Rex on his lap, then ran to the bathroom. HAHA he got a boner. Has he never seen a girl in a sports bra? Obviously not.
Cat: "Hey, where did Robbie go?"
Everyone started laughing.
Once Beck got the clip undone, he unraveled the bandages from around my waist until it got to the actual wound. "Shit, wow these doctors are not that good. The bandage is sticking to the wound. Tor, this is gonna hurt, so grab my shirt and when it hurts squeeze it. Andre, see that tub of antibacterial ointment on the table over there? Grab it and bring that and the bottle next to it here. Alright, get ready.." He began pulling my skin away from the cut.
"AAAAHHHHH!" I screamed and clutched onto his shirt.
"I'm sorry Tori... "I could hear him mumbling. "Okay, all done now...you can let go of my shirt now," he said.
"No!"
"Why not?"
"It still hurts.."
"Tori, I need you to lay down now."
"Okay," I let go of his shirt and attempted, but I couldn't since it meant bending my stomach.
"Here, lemme help you..."
He gently laid me down on the bed. Then, he pulled out the stuff he used before to clean my wound. It was probably rubbing alcohol or something.
"Hey, What is that stuff."
"Water."
"That's it, just water."
"Yep."
As he cleaned the cut, it didn't hurt as badly as it did before. Then, he helped me back up and re-bandaged it.
I put on my shirt as we started to talk.
"So, Tori..." Andre started.
"What?"
"Where are we gonna sleep?" Cat asked enthusiastically.
"What do you mean?"
"We were just thinking we could stay the rest of the night, then head to school together tomorrow."Robbie said.
"Uh..."
"I think that Tori might need some time alone.." Beck said.
"Uh, actually, since my parents are out, I guess you all can stay."
"YAY!" Cat screamed and then ran out in excitement.
"We were hoping you would say that, we had all our stuff in the car already,"Andre mentioned.
"Well, let's get going. I'm really tired, and I am sure you all are too."I said and we headed out to the car.
Everyone separated, even though we were all going to my house. Me and Beck went into his car while everyone else went to Andre's.
Soon we all met up at my house. Cat and Robbie headed up to my room while Beck, Andre, and I stayed downstairs. I went to open a low drawer when I got a pain from my stomach.
"Ahh," I grunted while gripping my stomach. I stood back up. They were looking at me, feeling sorry for me. I didn't like it.
"Andre, in the closet at the top of the stairs and at the end of the hall there are blankets. Grab them and take them to my room. Just make sure to be quiet in case if Trina is here. She might be staying somewhere else for the night, though."
"Gotcha," Andre replied and left up the stairs.
"Beck, can you get the two air matresses out of that drawer, please?"
"Sure"
"And when we get up the stairs, blow them up for me?"
"Mmmhmm."
I went to go up the stairs, and I managed, but my stomach hurt really bad. I got to my room and I had Andre help me lay down and get covered up.
After everybody got situated, we shut the lights off. Everybody went to sleep, but I couldn't.
"Tori?" I heard Beck start to talk. I thought he was asleep. He sat up.
I didn't move or even open my eyes when I replied with:
"How did you know I was up?"
"Well, if I was you, I wouldn't be able to sleep. I guess I was right."
Now I opened my eyes. "I guess you were. So what's up."
"Remember when we were talking in the cafe earlier? Well, I think I am gonna get back together with her. Don't get mad." Really? She just put me in the hospital and yu wanna date her again. Well, it was an accident...
"Why would I get mad?"
"Well, because, you know, she...you know."
"Yeah, I know. But I am not mad, I know it was an accident. I mean, you can tell by her face when it happened."
"Ok, Great."
"Goodnight." I said and before I fell asleep, I heard Beck say, "Goodnight, Tori."
Author's Note: Him. And. Jade. Again. I know, she is evil, but I couldn't break them up that early in the story. There is a lot more in store here, too. I promise it is Bori. Just give it time, its only been a week, jeez. This chapter took almost 5 hours to do, so enjoy it.:)
