Katie sits in front of her foster family, everyone chatting away ignoring Katie.
"So, today's my fifteenth birthday!" Jim her foster dad frowned.
"I didn't know you're kind still celebrated birthdays!" Jim's wife Cheyenne said smiling, everyone nods agreeing with their mother, and Katie frowns.
"My kind?"
"Foster children" Katie looks down.
"I just was wondering if maybe you could teach me to drive." Jim and his family laughed at the idea.
"You're such a freak!" Melody their daughter said giggling, everyone laughed. That night Katie cried. Cried because she missed her twin. Cried because she wants to be normal. Cried because nobody wished her a happy birthday.

"I want to learn how to drive." Burt and Carol were surprised when Katie asked to see them in the living room, and as Katie made her statement they both share a chuckle.
"I think that's a great idea! Oh and Burt you should go with its a great bonding experience for you two!" Carol says with a bright kind smile. Katie looked up shocked.
"Really!?"
"Well if that's what you want then, sure I'll be honored to teach you!" Burt says Katie jumped from her spot to Burt hugging him; she then hugs Carol repeating 'Thank You!' over and over.
"Well go get ready!" Burt said smiling at the excited girl. Katie ran away to get changed.
"Did you see that smile Burt? I thought she was going to pass out when you told her you'd take her!" Carol said looking at the way she ran. Burt smiled Katie's been here for a month and he can honestly say that because of Katie the small family have grown closer. Speaking of Katie she runs down the stairs in shorts and a shirt ready to go.
"Let's go kiddo."

Carol is worried, Burt and Katie left 2 hours ago and they still haven't come back, Finn and Kurt both trying to reassure her that everything's fine makes her feel a little better. That was until the phone rang.
"Hello, yes this is Carol, oh, okay I'll be right there!" Carol hung the phone up tears in eyes.
"Mom what's wrong?" Finn asked looking scared.
"Burt had a heart attack."
-earlier that day-
"Burt you look pale, are you sure you don't want me to drive home?" Katie who's sitting in the passenger's seat asked, they just finished up their lesson for the day.
"Katie you just want to drive home." Burt said chuckling. Katie looked nervously at Burt.
"Burt you look really sick, maybe we should go to a hospital I'm worried." Burt smiled at Katie.
"Thanks for worrying for me kiddo but I'm fine!" The next minute is filled with screams. Burt lost control and was shaking uncontrollably, the car went to the wrong lane and before Katie could get the steering wheel she was hit with metal, metal from a truck that hit her side. Katie felt the pain but needed to save Burt, so when the ambulance came she screamed that he had a heart attack. Katie could smell the burning metal and at that moment she took one last look to Burt before she passed out.

Carol was sitting next to a crying Kurt trying to calm him, though she wanted to cry too. Finn was staring at the floor not knowing what he should do. He wanted to be strong for both Kurt and his mother but he can't help but get teary eyed when he thinks of how nice Burt is to his mom, how they were supposed to get married he doesn't want him to die and leave his mom and Kurt heartbroken. Then he thought of Katie, she didn't deserve anymore pain then she already got. He prayed that she and Burt will be fine.
"Are you Carol?" A man in a white jacket said looking down at Carol with a sad smile.
"Yes that's me, are they okay?" Carol got up looking at the man with pleading eyes, everyone held their breath.
"Burt had a minor heart attack and will be fine; he's sleeping at the moment." Kurt smiled relieved that his dad was going to be fine.
"What about Katie?" Finn asked looking at the man.
"She was hit very hard by a car; she's in surgery at the moment. The car hit her in her right side she broke two ribs and her leg. She hasn't made any sign in waking up but she will be ok, she'll need crutches for about two weeks." Carol smiled everything will be fine she reassured herself, she hugs Kurt and Finn happy.

8-year-old Katie is being yelled at by her dad.
"Daddy it wasn't my fault! I'll try harder on the next reading test! I just don't understand it!" Katie's crying scared, 13 year Cooper sits on the couch trying not to watch, next to him is a crying 8-year-old Blaine who just wants his daddy to stop yelling.
"You are such a retard! NO CHILD OF MINE IS STUPID!" He smack's Katie across the face sending the small child to the ground. Behind him Blaine is gasping in shock, Cooper's eyes widen in shock not saying anything in fear he'll be next. Blaine looks at Cooper then to Katie.
"Don't touch her!" Blaine yells running in front of his sacred twin.
"You little shit!" Before he can hit Blaine their mom walks in.
"What the hell is going on in here?" She looks at Cooper who looks to his dad then her.
"Katie fell and Blaine was helping her up but dad thought he hit her, but dad he didn't! I saw her fall." Cooper lied looking at his father who smiled at him.
"Well ok then! Blaine why don't you and your sister go upstairs." Blaine and Katie both look shocked, their own brother lied. Blaine helps Katie up and takes her to their room and read his new Harry Potter book to her, she fell asleep in the middle of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.

What happened? You were in a car accident. Oh yea. Why didn't Burt just listen to me? Does that really matter now? Am I dead? No. Why am I talking to myself? I really need help. You don't need help. Voices. I can hear someone talking? No singing. Whose singing? Kurt? No. Finn? No he sounds different. Wait is that Artie? Why is he singing? Is he singing to me? What song? It sounds like 'Isn't she lovely'? Why is he singing to me and not Brittany?

"That's just adorable!" Carol says to Finn as they look inside Katie's hospital room, Artie has just finished singing is now holding Katie's hand talking to her as if she was awake. Finn narrows his eyes.
"I don't know mom, she's only 15." Finn says, Carol smiles.
"You're a great brother to her Finn, I'm proud of you." Finn smiles, his mom was proud of him.

I smile down at Katie, she looks so peaceful. When Kurt texted me about what happened I told my mom we needed to come here. She was confused until I told her. I thought singing would make both me and Katie feel okay. She's my best friend. And I know I'm dating Britt but I can't help but not like Katie. She's just too nice and really beautiful. But she likes Sam, Sam the football player. I can never be what Katie wants.

"My leg hurts." Katie says sleepily from her spot in the bed. The nurse smiles at her.
"The medicine will kick in soon. You are a fighter." The nurse says patting Katie's good leg. Katie smiles she woke up right before Artie left, he promised to be back later and he gave her a kiss on the cheek and leaving both him and Katie blushing and smiling. The nurse leaves and Carol walks in.
"The nurse told me you can take a wheelchair and get some fresh air." Katie nods and gets in the chair.
"Want me to take you?" Kurt asked.
"No I want to go alone." Kurt nods smiling. Katie wheels away going down the long white walls. Katie passes other patient's smiling at them.
"Mommy look she's in a wheelchair like me!" Katie looks to see a 6-year-old girl smiling from her wheelchair, Katie wheels over to her.
"Hiya! I'm Delilah what's your name?"
"My name's Katie."
"Hi Katie!" Katie stayed with Delilah for about an hour before she left. She learned Delilah can walk but was too weak too, she learned that Delilah has leukemia. That night Katie hummed 'Hey there Delilah' till she fell asleep.
Thanks for all the support and I'm proud to say that I'm in the middle of the 10th chapter! This is by far the only story I love writing! Thanks again and if you have any comments or ideas review! xoxo
