Peyton's POV
I didn't know what to do anymore. Jenny was out of control.
"Jenny! Jennifer! Jennifer Anne! Get you butt down here now!" I called to Jenny 3 weeks ago
"What do you want!?!" She screamed to me
"Now Jenny! We have to talk!"
Jenny came down and sat on the couch across from Jake and I.
"What?" she asked rolling her eyes.
"Jenny, we have grounded you several times and you keep sneaking out." Jake said calmly
"So?! You can't control me!"
"Jenny.
We are putting you on lockdown. We are going to make sure that you
don't leave your room at night and you will only be at home or at
school. Peyton and I are going to be watching you. You are out of
control and we don't want you to get hurt." Jake said
"You've
got to be kidding me! You have no right to control me!"
"Jenny, this is your last chance. It's this or a program. And we are your parents. We have to protect you, even if it's from yourself." I said
"You're crazy! I just like to party sometimes. You can't tell me you never partied. And besides, you're not even my mom!" She ran upstairs and I heard the door slam.
"What are we going to do Jake?"
"I'll
go check on her. I'll make sure she doesn't sneak out tonight.
You go sleep. Stress isn't good for the baby."
"Okay. I
just, I love her so much Jake, like she was my own flesh and
blood."
"I know Peyton and she does too."
"Kiss the kids goodnight for me."
I walked upstairs and went to Drew's room. I walked in and I saw him playing with Jasper.
"Mom? Is Jenny in trouble?" Drew asked
"Sweetie, Jenny just having a hard time right now. She's just confused, but she'll be okay."
"Okay. I don't want her to be in trouble."
"I know buddy. Why don't you put Jasper away and go put on your P.J.'s"
"Okay mom" he said putting Jasper away and running to his dresser to grab his clothing.
After he got changed and into bed I kissed him goodnight.
"Goodnight Drewy. Sleep tight. Dad says good night too."
"Night mommy"
I left his room and walked into Kyle's room just next door. I looked at him sleeping in his bed. He looked so small. I walked over to his bed and leaned down to kiss him goodnight. When I kissed his forehead, it was really hot. He was sweating too. 'Kyle!' I said trying to wake him up.
"Mommy?" he mumbled groggily.
"Kyle, do you feel okay?"
" I feel a little sick mommy"
"I'm going to take your temperature okay?"
I took his temperature and it was 104.2.
"Kyle, hang on a second okay?"
"Okay mommy"
"Jake! I screamed down the hall!"
He came running out of Jenny's room. "Peyton, what's wrong?"
"Kyle, he's running a fever of 104. I think we should go to the ER."
"Okay, I'll grab Kyle. Call someone to come watch Drew and the baby."
I called Brooke and she came over. She left Lola at home with Maia for the night.
"Peyton, I'll be right there. You tell Kyle to feel better."
"Thanks Brooke"
Brooke was at our house within minutes and within twenty minutes or so, Jake and I were at the ER with Kyle. We were there for a few hours when I got a call from Brooke.
"Peyton!" Brooke seemed to cry into the phone.
"Brooke?
What's wrong? Are the kids okay?"
"Peyton, I was checking on
Sofia and I noticed that there was a breeze in the hallway. I went
through all the rooms and I can't find Jenny. I think she ran off
somewhere."
"Oh G-d!"
"Peyton, I'm sorry."
"Not you Brooke. We put her on lock down today, but when Kyle got sick we forgot to tell you to make sure she doesn't leave. Just take care of Drew and Sof okay. I'll try her cell."
I called Jenny's cell, but all I got was voicemail.
"Hey you've reached Jenny's phone. Leave me a message and if I like you maybe I'll call you back."
"Jenny, this is mom. I know you are mad at us, but please call me back. Kyle's starting to feel better if you were wondering. Bye hon, love you." I closed my phone and looked at Jake.
Just then we heard a doctor say Jenny. I turned around and was shocked by what I saw.
"15 year old female. Possible Drug overdose. Her name is Jenny" Said an EMT
"Jenny! Jenny can you wake up for me?" A doctor called to her. There was no answer.
I looked at the girl being brought in. It was Jenny, our daughter Jenny.
"Jake! Jake Jenny just got brought into the ER!" I screamed.
"Stay with Kyle" Jake said as he ran to the front desk. "I'm here with my son, and I think my daughter was just brought in with a drug overdose." He said to the man behind the desk.
"What is your daughter's name?"
"Jenny, Jennifer Jagielski."
"I'll have the doctor's come talk to you when they know something."
"Thank you."
It felt like hours that we waited to hear about Jenny. I called Brooke and asked her to watch the kids for the night. She took them back to her house for the night. Kyle was given some medication to help with his fever, but we were told he just had the flu. He was being discharged when the doctor came to tell us about Jenny. I had also called Nikki to tell her that Jenny was at the hospital. She got there as soon as she could and waited with us.
"Are you Mr. and Mrs. Jagielski?" The doctor asked us.
"Yes and this is Jenny's mother." Jake replied and gestured to Nikki who was standing next to him. "How is she? Is she okay?"
"Jenny should be fine, but we are going to keep her for at least one night. This was a very serious problem. Did you know she was doing drugs."
"We knew she was partying, but we thought the most she had done was smoke a little pot. We keep trying to stop her, but she keeps sneaking out." I said.
"Well, I'm going to have Social Services come down and we're going to do some blood work to make sure everything else is good."
"Thank you doctor. Can we see her now?" Nikki asked anxiously.
"Sure, she's right in there."
