Pauline got back to the orphanage at three thirty just as every one was returning from school. The doctor's had told her everything that was going on with Gabriella's body. It was a series of many things. One, she had depression, two, she had very bad damage to her head where she'd hit it. Three, she was underweight and last but not least four, the doctors were afraid she might do something stupid if she carried on the way she did.

The thing that bothered Pauline the most was that Gabriella was screaming Troy's name, of course she wasn't going to jump to conclusions about it, after all there could be another Troy out there, but how many Troy's were there in Albuquerque, not many, were there?

She walked into the dining room, Erin was drawing a fake tattoo on one of the small peoples shoulders. Usually Pauline didn't have a problem with it, they were only fake. However, she wasn't in the best mood.

"Erin, stop drawing on other peoples body!" Pauline warned her.

"What?!" she asked confused, since when had Pauline stopped her from giving fake tattoos?

"I told you to stop it!" she shouted, "Now either do as your told or you can be grounded for a week!"

"Fine." she gave in and stood up to walk out.

"How's Gabriella doing?" Matthew asked Pauline.

"She's not that good Matthew." she started "Matthew you've known Gabriella a long time, do you know anything about her and someone called Troy?" she asked.

Matthew didn't know what to say, Pauline knew about them, he could cover for now but it would all come out later, little did he know what he was doing. "No, the only Troy she knows is well Troy." he told her..

Pauline was so ashamed, Gabriella and Troy were having a love affair right under her nose and she didn't have a clue. She burst into tears in front of Matthew, what sort of care/social worker was she if she couldn't see one of her workers having a little fun with one of the kids. And not fun in a good way. She wasn't sure what would happen, if she went to the police the orphanage would be closed down but if she didn't well it would be safer. All she had to do was fire Troy. Little did she know what was coming.

Later that evening when Pauline had calmed down the front door opened as Troy was passing the door. The figure pounced in happily and jumped on Troy.

"Hey sexy!" she said and kissed Troy full on the lips as people started surrounding them, staring.

"Troy who's this?" Pauline asked in a pretty bad mood considering what she had found out.

"I, Missy is Kelly Montez!" she screamed spinning around like she was high, she probably was, "Now where's my little sister, Gabriella!" No one answered "GABRIELLA!!" she shouted but cooed at the same time.

"Gabriella isn't here." Pauline told her.

"What?, she's supposed to be, did she run off?"

"She's in hospital Kelly." Troy said. After a second of shock Kelly was out the door and in her car. Sure sometimes she didn't show it but she cared for her sister a lot. Too much in fact. Yeah, she was the highest, most drugged up girl in Albuquerque however, she loved her sister, and she came first, before anything.

Pauline was trying to think of another explanation now. The way Kelly had treated Troy was a way Gabriella might not have approved of, but she would of have to be seeing Troy for that to happen. Or maybe it was because her and her sister were very close. What ever was happening Pauline had to follow Kelly to the hospital.

Gabriella was fast asleep when they got there. The doctor had given her something to let her sleep because of the lack of sleep she had gotten.

"What the fuck, Why is she here?" Kelly shouted at Pauline looking at the girl in front of her with stitches in her head.

"She fell and hit her head." Pauline told her.

"Well if you looked after her she wouldn't have would she?" Kelly screamed. "I'm calling my mom she won't have this." Kelly told her getting her cell phone out her bag and going for her second number in speed dial, Gabriella being first then her mom."

"Hello?" the voice said on the other side of the phone.

"Dad?"

"Who's this?"

"It's your daughter Kelly, why do you have mom's phone?"

"I'll put her on." he told her shaking the woman lying in bed beside him to take the call.

"Kelly?" she croaked into the phone

"Mom. One, why are you with dad? And two you need to get down here, Gabriella's in hospital!"

"Kelly, I'm doing business with your dad, and Gabriella will be fine, she's a strong girl."

"Mom, if you were looking at her now you wouldn't think that." she told her tearfully into the phone, "Mom I'm begging you here, please come back home."

It was very rarely Kelly asked her mom for something other than money. And you could tell by her voice that she was heartbroken and clearly not high any more like before.

"Honey, I have business to do, I can't just leave."

Kelly was now crying "Mom, I promise I'll help now, I'll not get high or go out with random guys just please for Gabriella's sake come back?"

She thought for a second, her daughter's desperately needed her now and she was lying in bed with there father that they hadn't seen since the divorce two years ago.

"I'm on my way honey." she said hanging up.

Kelly then hung up and sat beside Gabriella then started stroking her hair back to see the harsh stitches on her forehead.

Kelly and Pauline ended up staying at the hospital that night. Pauline had too because until Gabriella's mom and dad signed some papers Gabriella was under Pauline and unfortunately Troy's care.

Gabriella woke up at nine thirty, she looked to her right and was Pauline, sort of surprising, she'd went home didn't she? Then she'd turned to her left and saw her sister, dried mascara down her cheeks and fast asleep. She couldn't believe, Kelly had came back. Gabriella studied the room to see if there were any more changes. She looked straight out her window at the people and doctors walking around. Her face went white and she became scared when she saw both her parents talking to a receptionist. They were making there way over to the room. Pauline was awake and reading a book thankfully. If anything happened Pauline was there to stop it. She decided to avoid anything bad she'd just close her eyes and pretend to sleep silently.

The door opened, Pauline put the bookmark back in her book and lay it on the table beside her.

"Hello, I'm Pauline, you've met me Ms Montez and this is?" Pauline asked shaking the man's hand.

"This is Mr Montez, Gabriella and Kelly's dad." she said.

"Oh so you both signed the papers to put her in our care then?"

"Yes." Ms Montez replied looking at both her daughters. She then decided Kelly was correct on the phone. Gabriella surely did not look strong. She looked extremely weak. "What happened, can I ask ?"

"She had a bit of an argument before school and ended up at East High instead of West High. She had an argument there and ran in heels, slipped and hit her head off of a locker then the floor."

"She's just a clumsy girl." Mr Montez laughed.

Pauline did not approve of this "Actually Mr Montez, at the speed she was going in heels any girl would be in this position. Just they would be out of hospital at this time. The doctors think she has depression. After a few of the bruises have cleared up and the stitches are out they're transferring her to the Mental Health Department of the hospital."

He couldn't believe it. "My daughter isn't loopy thank you very much." he protested.

"I'm not saying she's loopy, she's far from it. She's just depressed."

Gabriella couldn't believe what she was hearing. She was NOT depressed. At least she thought. Now she was thinking about it. She could be. If she was with Troy then she wouldn't be. But she couldn't exactly say that out loud. Troy would get fired and police would get involved. Maybe she should wake up and say it was because of her dad and sister, then maybe they would try and get themselves back on track and leave her with Pauline and Troy at the orphanage.

Yes she was going to do that. Slowly she opened her eyes and the shouting suddenly stopped as her mom came to her side and hugged her, a bit too tight.

"Ow." she croaked out.

"I'm sorry baby." she said letting go.

"What's he doing here?" she asked referring to her dad.

"I brought him."

"Why? It's not as if he cares about his clumsy daughter is it?"

Ms Montez and Pauline both glared at Mr Montez. They weren't happy.

"I didn't actually mean it." he covered up.

"I don't want him here." Gabriella said looking at her mother begging

Her mother saw Gabriella was serious, she looked at her ex husband and urged for him to leave the room, he saw he wasn't wanted so threw a piece of paper at his ex wife and left.

Kelly then slurred awake and rubbed her eyes. She saw her mother standing beside the bed and immediately stood up and hugged her tight.

"I'm so, so sorry mammy. I didn't know this would happen, I would of stayed I swear!" she cried into her mothers chest.

"It's okay baby. As long as I have my two beautiful girls here with me I'm fine." she soothed.

Kelly slipped away from her mothers body and gently hugged Gabriella. "I'm so sorry Gabriella."

"You didn't do anything."

"Exactly!"

"Listen Kelly, leave it. I'm fine. Your fine. We're fine." Gabriella told her sister.

A doctor slowly came into the hospital room as he looked into a pile of papers in his hands.

"Mrs Montez?" the doctor asked.

"Yes?" Mrs Montez asked.

"It seems like we're moving Gabriella earlier than we thought, if you just sign here?" he said showing her the paper and offering a pen. Mrs Montez reluctantly signed it.

"Right then, I'll have someone help her and get her stuff in about five to ten minutes." he finished and exited the room.

The room was silent for those ten minutes, Pauline got Gabriella's stuff together in silence and everyone either sat or stood in silence. A male nurse came in and got Gabriella out of her bed and into a wheelchair. She could walk on her feet but it hurt. So they thought best to put her in a wheelchair.

After a bit of walking(or in Gabriella's case, rolling.), and two elevator rides they all arrived at the Mental Health Department of the hospital. They all settled into the new room for about five minutes silently. Pauline spoke up.

"I think I'm going to go now. I'll send someone up with some of your clothes, Gabriella and I know this may sound shocking but until Gabriella is out of hospital and you and Mr Montez have signed release papers I'm afraid I'll have to keep a worker beside her." she told everyone.

"That's fine." Mrs Montez spoke.

"Okay well I'll be off then." she waved to everyone in the room and headed off.

After about twenty five minutes of driving Pauline got back. Troy was sitting on the bottom stair staring at the door. When Pauline entered he shot up. "Is she okay?" he asked worried.

"Troy I KNOW!!!" she screamed. She was absolutely sure of this relationship. She didn't know why but she was. "I KNOW YOU'VE FUCKED HER AND I KNOW YOU'R SEEING HER!" she shouted unknowingly what was around her.

"What are you talking about?" Troy asked trying to keep cool.

"SHE'S AN INNOCENT GIRL TROY, YOU'VE BEEN FUCKING HER. ARE YOU FRICKEN STUPID? THIS COULD PUT THIS PLACE ON A REALLY THIN WIRE!"

"Pauline, what are you talking about?"

"YOU AND GABRIELLA, YOU FUCKING HER BEHIND EVERYONE'S BACK, SHE'S TOO YOUNG, SHE'S DEPRESSED. SHE'S FRICKEN THAT OBSESSED WITH YOU SHES'S DEPRESSED!"

"What the fuck Pauline. I never fucked her!" he defended himself

"DON'T LIE TO ME!"

"I'm not! Yes! We came close to have sex a long time ago. Now she's been making moves on me and I've been pushing her away! To keep this job!"

Pauline was shocked, she could tell he was telling the truth from the tone of his voice and the look of his face. "GO!"

"What?"

"GO! Go and get out! You cause ALL the problems around here. Why don't you just take the job at the school that is open to you whenever you fucking want?!"

"Fine, I WILL!" he shouted and headed for the door "YOU CAN TAKE THIS AS MY MONTH RESOGNASION!" he shouted and slammed the door behind him, getting his keys out his pocket and getting in his car and speeding away.

Just where was he going to turn up?
