Chapter 10
'Where am I? Is this a dream? I recognized those shoes, but from where? "Ow my head."
This last though Raven said out loud. All of a sudden a sound of rushing feet hurried over to where she lay.
"Where am I?"
"You're in the hospital sweetie."
"Mom? How did I get here?"
"Bella brought you here sweetie."
"Wait, What day is it?"
A look of sorrow and worry crossed Casey's face as Derek bent in next.
"It's April 12th. The day after your prom hon."
Bolting upright Raven finally saw everyone else in the room. By the door was her brother and Elizabeth. Next to the window stood Uncle Sam and Aunt Katie. On her right stood her parents and on her left was Jonathan who embraced her as soon as she had finished scanning the room.
"I missed Prom? I've missed half the school year. I can never make this up."
"Raven calm down. The principal is letting you take a week off to catch up. All of the notes you need have been written by your teacher in perfect order. I don't see how you wouldn't be able to catch up being as smart as you are."
"Jonathan that's not the point. It won't look good on any future application stating that I miss a good quarter of my final year in high school."
"I'm sure it's not going to matter."
(Sigh) "It does to me though. Anyways, I'm sorry you had to miss prom for me."
"Actually, I went to prom."
"You did? Why? With who?"
"Well I decided that if you didn't wake up by the day before prom I was going to go ahead and go. I already had my tux from that weekend we came back so all that was left was finding a date. But luckily Erzibeth and Cara asked me that day."
"Those two? The Emo writer and the hopeless romantic?"
"Ya."
'I can't believe an Emo chic would ask him to prom. Wait! Those boots. They're hers.'
This realization struck Raven like a blow to the head.
'She must have come up behind me and hit me.'
"So who did you go with?"
"I decided to go with Cara."
Now there was a blow to the head. Raven sat back, her mind reeling trying to figure out what happened all those months ago.
Shooting forward again she looked at Jonathan.
"What happened to Chelsey?"
"We're waiting for her to wake up as well," A doctor said while coming into the room.
"Can you tell me what happened?"
"Well by the x-rays we took of your brain during a, what we want to call a coma, we noticed blunt force was applied to one of your pressure points. Not enough to kill you but just barely enough to knock you out for some time. What ever did you do to do this?"
"I didn't do it, I think someone else did it to me."
"I could believe that. Chelsey has the same wound on the back of her head as well. I'll notify the police of this so that they can question you."
"There's no need, but thank you anyways doctor."
Once the doctor left the room Derek turned to his oldest.
"Raven, why shouldn't we tell the police?"
"Because, I may know who did this and I want to catch them myself."
