When my vision became clear again, I saw bright lights shinning all around me. They all pointed towards me. I felt the tautness of the cotton sheets beneath me and the rough blanket covering me. The room was freezing. I'm either in the hospital or in a room full of werewolves. It's the hospital. Definitely. The awful sheets and the bright lights all point to that conclusion. Okay, time to answer my three basic questions. Why am I here? That's obvious, I'm injured, or sick, or I work here and I'm taking a nap. It can't be the third one cause al the lights are on. What happened? Lets see, the last thing I remember was arguing with Jesse. Oh yeah, I made him mad, refused to move, he phased, and I got hurt. Typical me. Third question, when do I get out of this place? Well, I guess I'll have to ask the doctor that one, when I come to of course. I closed my eyes again but I couldn't go back to sleep. When I opened my eyes, everything was clearer than before. I could see the IV pole and vitals monitor on the right, and a small couch to the left. The walls were stark white and the floors were linoleum, giving the room a clean, functional appearance. I noticed the clamp on my finger. Ah, can't have the monitor without the sensor. I started pulling at it but a hand caught mine, and I looked up. I was to preoccupied with figuring out where I was that I didn't notice my mom sitting next to me.
"Ah,ah,ah." She scolded me
-"What happened mom?" I asked groggily.
"Well, you were at the bon fire with Jesse. You two were arguing but he hasn't told us what about. He got angry and when you wouldn't move, he phased." She said.
-"Yes mom, I can see that,"I replied, annoyed, "But what happened to me physically, why am I here?"
"When he phased, he tackled you. He cut deeply into your left shoulder blade and you got hit pretty hard on the head and fell into a coma." She stifled out.
-"Uggghh, thats why I feel awful right now."I moaned and threw my head back. I don't care if people think I shouldn't complain. I was in a damn coma! Induced by my boyfriend-who might soon be my EXboyfriend.
No matter what you say about life
I learn every time I bleed
The truth is a stranger, soul is in danger
Ah, speak of the devil. Jesse came rushing in with Jake at his heels. Jesse came to the side of the bed, and apologized to me. I didn't say anything, didn't even bother to look up. When I finally looked up, I stared into his eyes and simply told him "Leave, I don't want to talk about it." He was dumbfounded. If I hadn't felt so crappy, I might have laughed at the look on his face. He was ushered out by Jake, and Jesse, surprisingly, did not protest. Jake took Jesse's spot. I asked him if he ha hurt Jesse. Just because I hated his guts didn't mean that I would let Jake beat him up.
I gotta let my spirit be free
To admit that I'm wrong
And then change my mind
Sorry but I have to move on
And leave you behind
When I had a chance to examine my injuries I noted that most of my left arm was covered in gauze and my stomach was covered with scratches. I rolled my eyes at the injuries, why the hell am I being cooped up for these, they're all minor. I spent the next few days in that bed, being woken up by beeping monitors and empty drip bag alarms. And of course, visitors. The only person who didn't come to offer their condolences was Melanie. She came as an advocate for her brother. She told me that he had been sitting in his room, refusing to eat. I did feel sorry, but, its hard to forgive these things, he broke his promise to me.
I gotta let my spirit be free
To admit that I'm wrong
And then change my mind
Sorry but I have to be strong
And leave you behind
By the time I was out of the hospital and back to school, I had piles of missed work to make up. I had work from my stay in the hospital and from the time I missed while staying with Jesse. This is going to be hard.
On my first day back to school, I wore flare jeans, purple moccasins, and a maroon thermal top. My hair fell in waves on my shoulders and I wore a headband to keep my hair out of my face. I applied dark blue eye shadow, deep red lip stain, black mascara, and eye liner. Back to my old rebellious self. Normally I can expect what will happen to me, I plan ahead. But meeting him, was something I did not plan on.
Hope you guys liked. I will be introducing my new character in the next chapter IF I get more entries. Its not that hard people, just think of your dream guy and describe him! R/R please!
