Hey guys I have a few things to say before I put in the story:
1: I realize I didn't spell Jamie right BUT it isn't really my fault my friend spells Jamie like Jaime so I just spelled it the way my friend does
2: Yea I know Waite is Waite not Waites I don't know where the "S" came in, an honest mistake
3: ugh my worst mistake in every story I always forget to capitalize and I got back to check but I always manage to miss some
But thank you all for being so nice about it and keep R&R
At the hospital ( I know they were at the station, but the story works better at the hospital, besides they would of gone there anyway)
Val is crying, Hank is pacing, Jamie is sitting there with Jessica both in another world
*What's taking them so long?* Val wonders to herself
Tylers mother and step-father walk in , see Val and go to her. Her eyes are red puffy and bloodshot, her whole body is trembling because she is so upset
"Tyler was hit by a brick that came through the window…. I don't know how he is…" Val doesn't finish she breaks down crying again
The doctor comes towards Tylers parents "Mr. And Mrs. Connell Your son was hit by a brick, he has a bad cut on his head and was unconscious for a little while. He is ok the hit was not that bad, he lost some blood I want to keep him here over night for observation"
"Thank God" Tyler's mother exhales
The doctor turns to everyone else
"Is everyone else in here ok? Anyone else hurt?"
It dawns on Jessica that Hank is going to mention her wrist
"Jamie we have to go Mom doesn't know we aren't home, she is going to be worried"
"Oh crap your right Jessica" Jamie jumps up *not that us not being home is the part she will actually be worried about* he adds to himself
"Come on lets go" Jessica says.
They both run out, leaving behind some very confused people.
"Jamie, do you think it was Dad?"
"You and I both know it was Jessica"
"Maybe Hank is right, maybe I should of showed a doctor my wrist"
"Jessica! You know we can't do that he might find us"
"Jamie he obviously already knows, maybe we can get protection"
"The last time we got protection , he kidnapped you and I didn't see you for over a year" Jamie says now upset
"You think I don't know that? But what if it's worse this time, he hurt someone who he doesn't even know, he threw a brick in a window not caring who he hit, you saw the brick it said it's not over! What happens this time if he hurts Mom or you? Or tries to take me again or hurt someone else?" She asks almost screaming now
"Those are all What Ifs? They have no answers we don't know what goes on in his head, he's crazy remember that? His head is messed up!"
"I know that Jamie but apparently he isn't messed up enough to not know where we are. Damn you Jamie I don't want to relive last year over again" Jessica says starting to cry
"Oh Jess last year is NOT going to repeat itself. OK you hear me? I swear I wont let him screw our family up again."
Jamie hugs her and lets her cry a minute before saying they really should get home now
"Come on Jessica lets get home" (To Himself) *Jamie don't let your family down ok? Come on be strong! They need you Jamie*
They arrive home. Mrs. Waite is waiting anxiously for them
"Where were you two you had me worried sick! Dear God don't do that to me again I almost called the police! (she sees Jessica's wrist) Jessica are you Ok when did that happen?"
"Mom! Jessica is fine I fixed it up for her" Jamie says
"Oh come in both of you now, I don't want you outside at night you hear? If anything else happened - I don't know what I would do"
"Mom nothing else will happen" Jessica says
"Yes I know that but still….So where were you two tonight?"
They look at each other
"Uh we were at the station I had forgotten a book" Jamie says
Mrs. Waite looks at them curiously "So where's the book?"
"I forgot it again because we had a problem over there"
"What kind of problem?"
"It was nothing Mom I swear- Don't worry about it" Jamie tells her
"James! What was the problem?" (he doesn't answer) "Jessica?…(no answer) One of you two better start talking now"
"Mom it's like Jamie said. It was no big deal"
"If it's no big deal tell me, and if you don't I'm sure I can find someone at the station to tell me"
" A brick got thrown through the window, it hit Tyler on the head, just some kids idea of a dumb joke" Jamie says trying to make it sound like nothing
"Jamie you , your sister and I all know that it wasn't some kid that threw the brick."
"Of course it was Mom Jamie just told you"
"Jessica don't try to hide anything we all know your father threw that brick, we have to call the police get some protection a cop to stay here or -"
"Mom we can't do that! The last time it didn't help, what makes this time any different" Jamie explodes
"Jamie I don't like your tone of voice, and this time we are smarter, we know it could happen and we will make sure it doesn't. Now I am going to call the police"
Mrs. Waite turns and starts dialing
Only pieces of her conversation can be heard. She is speaking very quietly, she hangs up and turns to Jamie and Jessica
"They are sending a cop over now, see I told you everything is already different"
Mrs. Waite says smiling a too-fake smile
"Sure Mom whatever you say. I'm going to bed" Jamie leaves
"Uh-"
"Go ahead Jessica, go to sleep I understand" Jessica leaves also.
Jessica goes into Jamie's room he is messing around with his guitar, she goes and sits on his bed
Ding Dong
The door bell gets rung. They hear their mom answer it and ask the cop in. The voices fade as the two go into another room.
"I can't believe she is in there with a cop. It's like we are repeating last time" Jamie says softly
Scared "Jamie don't say that! Do you really think it is?"
Realizing what he said "No I don't it's just- this whole thing is crazy."
He starts to play a little bit and Jessica falls into a light sleep.
About a half hour later Jamie starts to fall asleep himself when he hears Jessica breathing rigidly and taking sharp breathes as though she can't breathe.
"Jess…Jess! Wake up! Don't do this! Get up! Damn it! Where is her inhaler? Jess get up"
He shakes her and she jumps up panting and crying, she is barely breathing, Jamie locates the inhaler and helps her use it.
"Geez Jessica what happened? You ok?" Jamie asks worried
"I'm fine, sorry about that"
"Damn you haven't had an asthma attack in years, I though that was over with"
"Yea it is- it was just one of those freak things probably" She's says (lying)
He eyes hers "You sure?"
"Positive , go back to sleep"
Jamie seems to finally believe her and goes back to sleep
*Damn I can't believe that was only a dream it was so real… Well it wasn't a dream. I was reliving a nightmare. It happens so much, why can't they stop? It isn't fair. Life isn't fair……* She thinks to herself as she falls back into a fitful sleep.
Next day at school. Mrs. Waite drops off Jamie and Jessica (she is going to register). They go inside and Caitie comes up to Jamie and Jessica
"Hi I'm Caitie, your Jessica right?'
"Yea, nice to meet you?"
"You too. Jamie I need to talk to you"
*How does she know already…..oh I bet Val told her* Jamie thinks to himself
"Can it wait Caitie? I need to take Jessica to the principals office"
"I can take her" Hank says coming towards them
Jamie looks at Jessica. Her eyes are pleading him to say no.
"I uh-" Jamie starts
"Jamie I said it was important" Caitie drags him away
Jamie looks at Jessica so as to say sorry but she isn't looking she is looking at the entrance of the school
"Come on Jessica" Hank says tugging her arm "It's this way"
"Huh? Oh yea the principals office right…yea lets go"
Hank looks at her confused
" So how does your arm feel. I know you don't want to see any doctors but I am a senior EMT so maybe I can look at it later?"
"Sure that'd be a good idea"
*wow that was too easy. Maybe someone talked to her* Hank thought
"Here is the office, just go talk to the screctary she probably already is waiting for you"
"Thanks Hank bye" She goes in
The secretary looks up "Jessica Waite?" (Jessica nods) "Your mother already took care of just about everything just fill this in……Ok thanks here is your scheldule. Room 114 thats out the door to your right, all the way down then around the corner, it's right around the corner. It's easy to find"
"OK thanks." She takes the paper and leaves
Jessica is walking down the hall when she hears someone walking behind her , she turns but no one is there. She shudders but keeps going. The steps get louder. The words on the brick come back to her "It's not over" They play over and over it her mind
· I know someone is there, (she looks again) dont be stupid they probably went into a classroom* Despite that thought she walks a little faster. She is almost at the corner. *Come on Jess just go to the corner, and go in your almost there, you can almost touch it-"
She never finishes that thought, her head gets slammed hard into the wall and she sinks into a deep dark blackness.
