The hospital

Tori's POV

It had been three hours since I woke up in this hospital bed. Since then the doctor has come in and spoken to me about what happened. Apparently I was found washed up on the beach by a local who called 911 immediately. When I arrived at hospital they called my parent's, but since they were still in New York with Trina they arn't able to get back until this evening. They found out where I had been staying and called the house. The boys came straight over and Andre and Robbie have been waiting outside ever since. Beck, however, has been with Jade.

The doctor won't tell me anything about what happened to Jade, as he doesn't want to stress me out so soon after my 'ordeal', but I know that she is in a much worse condition than me. After we lost each other in the sea I carried on swimming and so was able to get near to the shore and the tide did the rest, but Jade isn't as strong a swimmer as I am.

Anyway, the doctor said that my arm is broken, and two of my fingers fractured, but I am very lucky that nothing worse happened. I don't feel that way though, I ache all over and am gonna have so killer bruises soon. I was also told that I needed to get some rest, ,and since there is nothing else I can do, I suppose I'd better try and sleep now.

No POV

While Tori was sleeping, Jade was undergoing surgery. Three of her ribs hadd been broken, and one of them had punctured her lung, which needed emergency surgery. After her surgery was over one of the doctors called Beck into her room, as he had been waiting outside ever since he got the phone call.

'Hello, you must be Beck. I'm Doctor Bailey, please take a seat.'

Beck sat down in a chair next to Jade, and being careful not to touch any of the tubes surrounding her, held her hand.

'I called the West's house earlier, and was told rather rudely by someone there that they didn't care about Jade and what she has been through. Therefore, being her boyfriend, you are the closest person to her. Jade has just been in surgery as one of her lungs was punctured. The surgery went well and we were able to put the broken ribs into their right positions, so they should be able to heal correctly. As well as those injuries she has broken her foot, which as you can see has been put in a cast.'

Beck sighed with relief as this news and eagerly asked the doctor, 'So she's going to be alright?'

The doctor hesitated before continuing, and you could tell that it hurt him to deliver the next piece of news, ' I don't know whether you know this or not Beck, but Jade wasn't as strong a swimmer as her friend, Victoria. She wasn't able to swim as close to the shore as Victoria. The tide was able to pull Victoria the rest of the way, but not with Jade. She was found a minute or two later by another local in the shallows of the sea, with her face still submerged. Combine that with the severe bruising found on Jade's head that appears to have been caused by her being tossed into a rock by the waves, Jade might have some damage to her brain. We are not able to know this for certain until she wakes up, but we thought that we should tell you in case that happens to be the case.'

Beck turned as still as stone, not even blinking as he tried to digest this news. Jade, his Jade, might have brain damage.

'I'll leave you and Jade alone for a little while Beck. She will hopefully wake up soon. I'm so sorry about all this.'

As soon as the doctor had left the room Beck collapsed. All the tears that had been gathering since he got the phone call came out. He sobbed and sobbed until his head hurt and his throat was raw. He then sat next to Jade in silence, and thought about what was going to happen next.

After Dr. Bailey left Jade and Beck, he went to see how Tori was. After assessing her he told her that she was allowed to have some visitors, and he went outside and told Andre and Robbie that they could come in.

'Tori! How are you? What happened? Tell us everything.' They boys sat down next to her and Tori started to speak of them finding the cave, how they played hide and seek and how the water rose and they had to try and swim back, but the currents were too strong, how they got separated and how she blacked out, waking up to find herself in the hospital bed. All throughout this the boys were silent, thinking about how close they had been to losing two of their closest friends.

Then Andre and Robbie told her that they too had heard nothing about Jaded, but Beck was with her now and she had been through some surgery. Then Robbie noticed something about Tori's story.

'Tori. What happened to Cat after she left you to go and hide? No one has heard anything from her since.'

Tori sat up quickly. 'Oh my gosh! What if something happened to her as well. What is she got kidnapped by a paedophile! Call her Andre- now!' She was so worried for her friend who was as innocent as a little child.

Andre tried calling her, but it went to voicemail. He began to get worried too so he called her home number. Her dad picked up, but Tori and Robbie couldn't hear what he was saying. Andre hung up after a couple of minutes, his face full of shock, surprise and horror.

'I just spoke to her dad. Apparently she called him last night and he picked her up and took her back to her house. When they got back she kept on saying that you two were stuck, but when he asked her what she meant she ran up to her room, locked to the door and hasn't come down since.'

Tori's voice was a whisper,' You mean she knew we were trapped but didn't tell anyone. She knew we were in danger but didn't help us and left us instead. She could have saved us but left us to die.' She suddenly shouted,' That backstabbing little bitch!'

Tori's heart monitor started to beat faster, and a nurse rushed in.

'Excuse me, but I'm going to have to ask you two to go. She can't take any more stress at the moment, she just needs to rest.'

(LINEBREAK)

Next door Beck had heard the whole exchange. He was so angry, and felt like going out and finding Cat and beating her up so she could feel the way that Jade had felt. Suddenly Jade's eyelids fluttered as she started to regain consciousness and Beck rushed over to her.

'Jade! Jade, can you hear me baby. It's Beck, everything is going to be alright. Just open your eyes for me.'

Jade's eyes opened, and they were so sad that Beck knew instantly what had happened.

'You heard next door, didn't you?'

A/N: Longest chapter yet! So much drama! A little bit of Bade in for you Bade shippers- and there will be more of that very soon. Sorry is beck is a bit OoC, but his girlfriend almost DIED! Can I just say that I loved the responses from all of you last chapter. I got seven reviews! That's over a third of all the reviews from this whole story! It makes me really happy to know that all you guys are out there reading my story, but it would make me happy if you just wrote a review after reading even if it is just a couple of words.

SkyeVenomatic: I am trying to make my chapters longer, and this one is my longest yet so hopefully you will like it! Also about when you said that most of the chapter was filler with just a bit of good stuff- that was because the actual plot hadn't started and now that it has there is a lot more drama and less filler (like in this chapter). But thank you for the constructive criticism, it is very useful to me.

Anyway guys please, please, please, please, please, please, PLEASE reivew! If I can get to four reviews I will upload the next chapter ASAP!

Peace out and hug teddies! XX
