Chapter 9

As soon as Zola and Bailey arrived back at the party they darted into the house.

"Hi" Bailey introduced himself to a boy about his age. "Have you seen a girl with pink hair around here? Wearing all black? Somewhat tall, but tiny frame?"

"No sorry dude."

"Have you seen Ellis?" Zola asked a short girl.

"Who?"

"Pink hair, all black clothes…"

"Nope sorry."

They asked over a dozen people, but nobody seemed to know where she was. They checked every room and asked every person they ran into, but no one had seen her for quite some time.

"Maybe they left? I'll text Harriet." Bailey said

Bailey: Hey did you leave the party?

Harriet: no y?

Bailey: We cant find Ellis is she with u?

Harriet: no

Bailey: Where r u?

Harriet: outside by the bonfire

Bailey: Dont move

Harriet: k…

The pair raced outside towards Harriet who was dripping with water.

"Why are you soaking wet Harriet?" Bailey asked.

"Ellis."

"Where?" Zola asked.

"No no...Ellis is the reason I'm soaking wet."

Zola and Bailey looked at Harriet confused. Harriet sighed.

"It''s a long story." She explained what happened with Brittany and Ellis in the pool. All the sudden everything clicked. Zola and Bailey exchanged a glance.

"THAT'S WHAT ELLIS HAS BEEN DOING IN THE BATHTUB!" They said in unison.

"Holding her breath?" Harriet asked confused.

The two nodded their head.

"But I don't see what this has to do with anything. Anyway Ellis told me to leave her alone for the rest of the night and then she walked away to go find Brittany, and that's the last time I saw her."

"What does Brittany look like?" Zola asked.

"She looks like your stereotypical "mean girl," She quoted the air, "blonde hair, pink tight dress, black heels...um blue eyes I think."

"Oh I know her!" Bailey nodded. "She's hot." Zola slapped him on the back of the head.

"Focus!"

"I can find her." Bailey said. "Let's go. Thanks for you help Harriet."

"No problem...let me know when you find her."


Meredith was checking on one of her patients when her pager went off 911. It was Nellie again.

"Dammit!" She raced to Nellie's room. Her wound wasn't bleeding, but she was having a seizure. She lowered her bed and held her down while a nurse gave Nellie a shot of Epinephrine. Once Nellie's seizure had stopped, she paged an intern to go run a CT and page neuro. Meredith needed a consult hopefully this would solve the problem.


"That's her!" Bailey pointed toward Brittany.

"Oh my gosh…" Zola rolled her eyes. She was the typical looking mean girl.

Bailey's face lit up. "Wow she is even hotter tonight."

Zola elbowed Bailey in the ribs.

"Ow." Bailey said under his breath.

Zola and Bailey walked up toward her.

"Where is Ellis?" Zola asked angrily.

"How am I supposed to know?" Brittany snapped back.

"Harriet said Ellis was coming to talk to you when she last saw her a while ago."

"Well I haven't seen her for a long time either! She probably left. She's such a baby." Brittany rolled her eyes.

"H-hey! That's my sister you're talking about! And... she may cry a lot, but she's not a baby. That's how she lets go of her pain! So I know you're hot but will you lay off the name calling? She deserves better." Bailey stood up for Ellis and they walked away.


"The Head CT shows that she has a glioma. To put it simply she has a tumor in her brain. That is why she was having a seizure." The on-call neuro doctor stated.

"I know what that is- Wait. A glioma?" Meredith gulped.

"Yes, I'm not sure it's operable…it's only been done once"

"Let me see those scans." The doctor gave them to Meredith.

"Oh my gosh…" Meredith started to tear up as she started at the scans. The tumor was located in the same area Beth's was back when her and Derek did the clinical trial. "This is operable. I can take it out."


Zola and Bailey were heading back into the party, and about to give up hope when they each decided to ask one more person.

"Excuse me?" Bailey asked a tall dark haired boy, he looked like the jock type.

"What?" He asked rudely.

"Have you seen my sister Ellis? Hot pink hair, wearing all black?"

"Did you say hot, man?" He slurred. He stumbled towards Bailey, his can of beer sloshing around in his hand, and managed to spill it all over Bailey's shoes.

Bailey jumped back annoyed. "Dude no! I'm looking for her she could be in trouble!"

"Man, how about we look for her together? And then we can both get some. You know what I mean?" The jock elbowed Bailey repeatedly.

"No, you know what? Never mind." Bailey turned around and walked away. He suddenly got pulled back by his elbow and hit the ground. Then, he sat up and turned toward the person. It was the jock.

"Dude! I just wanted to have some fun, what's your problem?" He yelled.

Bailey got back on his feet, and held his hands up in defense. "Nothing man, I'm not even supposed to be here. I'm just looking for my sister, okay?"

The jock shoved him backwards. "Maybe I wanted to help you find her!" He shoved him again. "Maybe I actually felt bad. Now I don't!" He shoved him backwards one more time and Bailey hit a tree.

The jock put up his fist to punch him and Bailey shielded his eyes ready to never see the light of day, but nothing hit him.

He lowered his hands and realized that a few other teenagers held back the jock trying to calm him down. Bailey could tell the jock was screaming but none of the words made sense to him. Suddenly, Zola pushed through the crowd that formed around the two of them.

"That's my brother over there LET ME THROUGH!" Once Zola reached Bailey she yelled, "ARE YOU KIDDING ME? I LEAVE YOU ALONE FOR FIVE MINUTES AND YOU GET INTO A FIGHT? WE ARE SUPPOSED TO BE LOOKING FOR OUR LITTLE SISTER." She pulled him up almost dislocating his shoulder.

"Zola! It was a misunderstanding! He was trying to fight me!"

"I don't wanna hear any of your crap! Come on, let's go!" She started to drag her brother away from the tree fiercely.

As they were about to enter the house they noticed a girl was staring at them.

"Hey, let's ask her." Bailey pointed toward the girl.

Zola sighed. "Okay...one more person, but that's it, and if you try to flirt with her-"

"I won't! I seriously think she knows something! Otherwise why would she be staring at us?"

"You make a point." Zola nodded, and Bailey grabbed her arm and pulled her toward the girl.

"Hi, have you seen a girl with hot pink hair around here lately? We can't seem to find her." Zola tried to stay calm. She was tired of asking and not getting any answers.

The girl nodded her head.

"You have? Thank you so much!" Bailey squealed and hugged the girl tightly.

"Where is she?" Zola asked. The girl pointed toward the pool, and they looked at her confused. "What do you mean? Where exactly is Ellis?"

"Brittany pushed her into the pool again...and she hasn't come up for air yet..."

Zola and Bailey looked at each other wide eyed. Bailey kicked off his shoes and plunged into the water.

Sorry had to fix a few mistakes and I finally figured out how to separate the sections so it's not all run together and makes more sense! Thanks so much for your patience! I love y'all so much! Thanks again for all the reads, follows, favorites and reviews! If you feel like leaving a review they mean a lot to me! :)
