Prom
Chapter Nineteen: Hospitalization
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A/N: Thanks Pansy, I didn't realize that I didn't say who was in the passenger side, although I already had somebody in mind. Gordo is in the front passenger side and Lizzie is in the back passenger side.
"We've ID'd the victims, doctor," a pretty blonde nurse reported to a tall doctor. "The dark-haired girl is Miranda Sanchez, the blonde girl is Elizabeth McGuire, the curly haired boy is David Gordon, and the other boy is Jason Davis."
"Thank you, Miss Roberts. Did you find any way to get ahold of their parents?"
"Yes, Nurse Ellison is already contacting them," she answered.
"Thank you," he said, and the nurse scurried to the nurse's station. He checked his clipboard to refresh his memory on the room numbers. The two girls were in room 195. He opened the door of that room at the same time the Sanchez girl was awaking.
"Where am I?" she asked softly and hazy-like.
"You're in the hospital. Do you remember what happened?" the doctor asked gently.
"Car accident," she stuttered out. "Are they all okay? Lizzie and Jason and Gordo?"
"None of you have serious injuries. Luckily all of you had seatbelts on," he informed her.
"What about the other guy?" she asked, referring to the driver of the red truck.
"Killed on impact. Unlike you four, he wasn't wearing a seatbelt. He was drunk, which was the reason he ran the light."
"What injuries do I have?" Miranda squeaked.
"A big bruise on the left side of your forehead from impact with the window," he said.
"That's it?" she asked.
"That's it," he confirmed. He sat down in the chair next to her bed.
"What about the others?"
"Let's see..." he looked at the papers attached to his clipboard. "Mr. Davis has a few bruises and scrapes, a chipped tooth, and a gash in his right arm."
"Is it bad?" she asked, worried.
"He'll be fine. Miss McGuire and Mr. Gordon both have a broken right leg," he said.
"Oh my gosh," she said.
"They both have common fractures, it'll only take their legs two and a half months max to heal," he said surely.
"Doctor Jenkins to room 202 immediately," a voice announced over the intercom system. The doctor talking to Miranda got up quickly and rushed through the door. But there was no mistaking what Miranda saw on his clipboard. Room 202 was Jason and Gordo's room.

"Hello?" Jo McGuire said as she answered the phone. "Lizzie? The hospital? Yes, right away, thank you," she said, and yelled for her husband as soon as she hung up. "Sam!" she yelled, and wrote a quick note to Matt to let him know they'd be gone. Sam stumbled into the room. His shirt was smeared with paint; he had been working on his gnomes.
"Yes, dear?" he said, irritated at being interupted.
"Lizzie's in the hospital!" That's all she needed to say.
The same thing was happening at the Gordon's, Sanchez's, and Davis' homes.

A blonde nurse walked into Miranda's hospital room. Her nametag said 'Nurse Anna Roberts.'
"What's wrong with them?" Miranda practically yelled.
"Shh! With who?" the nurse said coldly.
"Jason and Gor-- David," Miranda said, so the nurse would understand.
"Well it seems that the cut on Jason's arm has a couple very tiny shards of glass in it, and they need to be removed before it heals, or they could cause pain in the future." She said this all rather snobbily, and immediately, Miranda knew she disliked the woman. The nurse checked Lizzie's stats and left the room.

The next day, which was supposed to be Graduation, was the day Lizzie and Gordo got their casts (Gordo's was blue, Lizzie's was purple) and the four kids were released from the hospital. Jason's cut was dealt with and everyone was doing good. Lizzie's parents had informed the teens that the school was postponing the graduation ceremony for two more days so they had a chance to heal a little, which they greatly appreciated.
Before the day was over, the four had recieved cards, flowers, and other get well wished. Lizzie and Gordo's casts were filled with names of friends and family. They even got a few gifts, which was nice. Lizzie and Gordo would still be on crutches when Graduation took place, but it was okay. At least they were still alive.
The next two days would have seemed easy and laid back for the quadruple group of friends, but they were in fact very busy with getting ready for their big day.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I didn't get too far in that chapter. And expect the next chapter to be really short. The two after that will hopefully be longer though.
Sneak Peeks:
Upcoming chapters of Prom:
Chapter Twenty: Graduation
Chapter Twenty-One: Gordo's Letter (aka Gordo the Star)
Chapter Twenty-Two: Extras
Don't worry, there will be more than 22 chapters! It's just that these are the only ones I have planned out so far.
Upcoming Lizzie McGuire story by me:
Gordo's Cousin - Should be up at the same time as I post Chapter Twenty of Prom. Probably August 28th - August 30th.
And I'm thinking of doing a spin-off type story from Prom. But I can't tell you all the choices of what I might do yet, or they'll spoil chapters twenty-one and twenty-two. So in chapter 22 I'll tell you guys what I might write, so you can pick the storyline you like the best.
