So Chapter 19, and uh yeah. LOL. Hope your enjoying. This time I think I'm gonna start breaking few boundaries in this one ;)

The next day

At the hospital, Shawl approached Hazel. He found out she was actually feeling really bad for hurting Sarah. So he wanted to make it up to her. "Hey Hazel, I know you felt really bad for hurting Sarah. But I'm not angry. In fact, I wanted to make it up to you. Here." He said as he handed her a box. "You got me something? Awh you shouldn't have." Hazel said surprised. "But I did, go on open it." Shawl said. It was a necklace, like how Shawl had given one to Sarah a while back. "Awh it's beautiful, I love it." She said flattered. "Here I'll put it on." Shawl said. "Why did you do this?" Hazel asked. "Well you like me a lot so I thought I'd give you one piece of generosity towards you." Shawl said.

Later that day Sawyer and Hazel took the kids to the hospital. Shawl, Bailey and Jaymin were hanging around and chatting when they were accidentally mistaken for young students and dragged into uniforms. They were determined to get out of this so they snuck away from the group they were dragged into. However they spotted Kyle and try run away before Kyle saw them and said "Hey guys would you mind taking a look at my daughter?" He took them in where they had to try and hide their faces from a nurse that was in the room. Luckily though they were wearing masks. As soon as the nurse, Kyle and Sandra left, the boys unmasked themselves and took off the uniforms. "That was close." Shawl said with a sigh of relief. "Yeah but we can't get out. As long as that nurse is probably still out there." Jaymin said. "Yeah you're right." Shawl said. "Well at least since we're in here with a friend, least we can do is try." Bailey suggested. "Except one problem idiot, we're not trained paramedics!" Shawl said. "Then what we just gonna stay in here and hide until a doctor comes in and sneak out?" Bailey asked. He walked over to the bedside. "Come on wake up would ya?" He said. "Okay don't panic, let's look for something that might help." Jaymin suggested. 'Ok" the boys said as they scurried around trying to look for something.

Outside Sawyer and Hazel sat down next to Kyle and Sandra. "Have you guys seen Shawl and two other guys from the group? I think they disappeared." Hazel asked them. "No. Don't think so." Sandra said. Kyle spoke "Doctors say it could be another while or so before Sarah awakens. Luckily it's not an official coma, she's just taking time out. That's what doctors told us."

In the room, Bailey spotted a defibrillator. "Hey we can actually use this!" He said. "If we press it against her chest, she'll come through!" "Here I'll try it." Jaymin said. He took the two black paddles and walked over. He pressed them against Sarah's chest. Nothing happened. He tried again. "Is it turned on?" he asked. Bailey turned around to look at the machine. "Oh no it's not. Here." He said as he turned on a switch. Jaymin went for it again but still nothing happened. He walked over. "Usually these type of things work alright. What's going on?" he asked. "Oh look up there, the plug's not even switched on." Shawl said as he climbed up the table and switched on the switch. "Try it now." He said. Jaymin put one of the pads to his ear. It vibrated. He tested the other one, it vibrated too. However just as he was about to go over, he accidentally put both pads together, thus zapping himself. "Woah!" He shrieked as he was leaped across the room and landed on top on Sarah's body. "Jaymin!" Shawl yelled. "Are you okay?" Bailey said as they both ran over. However Jaymin fell off of the bed and landed on the floor. The boys walked over to him. "MOM? DAD? ANYONE?" a loud voice yelled. The three of them turned around. "Sarah, you're back!" Bailey said. "Bailey?" Sarah turned around. Just then Kyle and Sandra ran in followed by Sawyer and Hazel. "Honey you're back!" Sandra yelled as she ran over and hugged her daughter. "Wh-what happened?" Sarah asked. "You had an accident honey, but don't worry you'll be fine." Kyle said. "Ho-how long have I been here?" Sarah asked, she was dazed. "Few days." Sawyer said to her. Hazel however noticed the boys standing behind Sandra. "Oh there ye are. What are you boys doing in here?" she asked them. "Oh well we were in here this whole time mom." Shawl said, "And we actually bought Sarah back to consciousness." "How?" Sawyer asked looking impressed. "Long story mate." Bailey said. "And it was quite painful too." Jaymin said as he got up and restrained himself. "You guys did well then I suppose." Sandra said as she patted Shawl on the head. "Haha yeah" he chuckled. "Anyways if you want to go find the others, they're at the mall, I told them to go there while we would look for ye." Sawyer said. "Okay dad. Come on we go tell the others that Sarah is awake again." Shawl said as he and the Australians walked out.

When they got to the local mall, Hazel approached them, still wearing the necklace Shawl gave her earlier that day. "Where have you boys been?" she asked. "Well I think we performed a hospital miracle." Bailey chuckled. "We bought Sarah back to consciousness." "Well I did anyways." Jaymin replied. "What? How did ye do that?" Hazel asked puzzled. "Jaymin, he accidentally used a defibrillator on himself and whooshed on top of Sarah, and that bought her back in like two seconds!" Shawl giggled. "Anyways we're all down by the main area of the shopping mall if you wanna come hang." Hazel said as she led them over. The rest of the kids were sitting around and chatting in a local park. Bailey walked over to the skate park that was right next to it. The others observed as he took a skateboard and started skating all around showing his skills. It made some of the girls cheer loudly as he kept going. "Good job mate! You're really good!" Shawl said. "I practice about 3 hours a day or 8 on the weekends! I'm getting better!" Bailey grinned as he came over and high fived the boys. "You certainly push yourself to the limits!' Gary said. "And that's what I like." Bailey agreed.

A while later all the kids were amusing themselves in different ways. Hazel and her friend Rachel were playing tennis in a nearby tennis area. Shawl and Bailey walked over. "Seems like a great sport, never really tried it before." Shawl said to them. "Yeah me neither." Bailey agreed. "Why don't we play doubles?" Hazel suggested. "Rachel and me versus you two." The boys looked at each other and nodded nervously.

'Well here we go then." Bailey said nervously as he and Shawl stood on one side of the court and the girls on the other. However things got complicated from there on in. Rachel proved to be quite aggressive on a tennis court. She hit her ball so hard that it went speeding past Shawl and he didn't have enough time to catch it. One even hit him in the head. "Yes! I mean, Sorry." Rachel changed her attitude when she saw Hazel looking at her in puzzlement.

They kept on going. Even Bailey couldn't get one. He tried but ended up hitting Shawl in the arm with his racket, and then both boys even tried to get the same ball but they bumped into each other and fell down. Rachel then hit another ball so hard that it hit Bailey in the groin. "Ooh!" he yelled in pain. Shawl then hit his ball and it went towards Rachel who hit it back so hard that it went up in the air. "I got it!" Shawl said as he tried to lunge forward to hit it. But he ended up falling over the net and got hit in the face with the ball. Both Hazel and Bailey came and helped him up. "So have either of you guys actually played tennis before?" Hazel then asked. "Well uh yeah. I used to like tetherball. It's not exactly the same thing." Shawl said silently as Hazel laughed a little. "Maybe I can teach how to play sometime." She suggested. "Uh yeah. I'd like that." Shawl smiled. Shawl then got a text from his mother. 'Bring everyone home, we have a little surprise for you all" it read. "So my parents want us all to go back to my place. They have something for us." He said to the others. "Come on let's round em up."

When they got to his house, Shawl found his parents in the kitchen. "What did you need?" he asked. "Go on up to your hangout room. We've a little surprise for you all." Hazel smiled. "Okay come on guys.' Shawl said as he went upstairs followed by everyone else. They went into his hangout room where on his sofa, there was his laptop with a small memory stick. It read "Please play me." Shawl plugged it in, and the video clip included many clips of everyone's parents. The first one featured two parents and a little girl near the beach in sunny Gold Coast, Australia. "Hi Bailey. It's your family here. We hope you are having the time of your life and we can't wait to hear about it when you come home" his mother said. Bailey smiled to himself as he watched the clip, the next clip then featured Gary's parents and his younger brother and sister, "Hi Gary, we're all really excited to hear about your adventure when you get home. Be safe darling."

All the clips of family and friends were making everyone either laugh or cry. It was all too emotional for everyone. However just at the very end, another clip was shown, this time of Sarah. "Hey guys, this is me here. I've just been released from hospital and I hope to come back and be with you all soon enough. Take care." She smiled and waved at the camera.

"Aww" everyone said. "Glad that she's feeling better." Rachel said. "I am too" a voice said from behind them. They all turned around. Sarah was standing there at the doorway. "Hi." She said. Following that, everyone went all surprised and rose out of their chairs and crowded around her in a big hug. Even Shawl and the boys crowded around her. It was nice to have their friend back.

"I missed you all!" Sarah said as everyone hugged her. 'So did we girl.' Bailey said as they all let go. "You look a lot better too!" Shawl said. "Also, I'm sorry I flew on top of you, which was an accident." Jaymin chuckled to her. "You have to admit though that was pretty funny!" Shawl said as he patted him on the back.

Later that evening, everyone was sitting around the table eating bowls of ice cream and just talking. Shawl suggested that they would have the ice cream to celebrate Sarah being back with them. Afterwards they were all outside playing. Sarah was sitting nearby when Hazel approached her. Sarah felt slightly scared but Hazel said "Can I talk to you?" "Uh okay?" Sarah said. "Look I know you're scared of me now for getting into fights with you, but I just want to say that, I'm sorry okay. I'm sorry I fought you." Sarah was shocked at this one, she felt a tear coming to her eye. "Well I'm sorry too. I'm sorry I even pushed you." She said. "It's Okay. We friends?" She asked. "Yeah, we're friends." Sarah said. They both then shared a hug.

"Hey we see hugging." A voice said behind them. They turned around and saw Shawl and Bailey standing there. "So do we like each other again?" Bailey asked. The girls both laughed. "At least ye made up. Don't fight over me, I'm just not ready for relationships yet." Shawl said as he sat by them and patted them both on the shoulders. "Come on, my mom's serving cake."

Wow this took me three days. Probably because I wanted to make it longer than I normally do. Anyways read and review!
