Summary: I won't be able to say to much with out giving anything away. Begins with Michael leaving his parents appartment.
A/N: I'm sorry that it took me a couple of days to get this up. I've been sick and have been force feed a bunch of sinus medicians and a lot of Tylonnol PM's. I attempted to write some too, but I'm having to re-write everything that I wrote because sinus pills and writing don't mesh well. I have decided that I'm psyco when I'm sick!

INNOCENT
Satan, you know where I lie
gentaly I go into that good night
all our lives get complicated
search for pleasure over rated
never armed our soul
for what the futur would hold
when we were innocent
angels, lend me your might
forget all my lives to get just one right
all those colors long single faded
all our smiles confiscated
never we were told
we'd be bought and sold
when we were innocent
this prayer is for me tonight
this far down that line and still ain' got it right
and while confessional not started
our next sin is contempted
never did we know
what the futur would hold
or that we'd be bought and sold
we were innocent
Chapter 8
Michael got his parents keys and quickly rand down 16 flights of stairs taking two and sometimes three steps at a time, quickly making his way to the car. He knew exactly where he was going, he had been their before, the night he had met Angela. He was going to Scott Baker's appartment. Luckly it wasn't far away. 'Please be okay Mia. God, if you are real don't let anything be wrong with her.' Michael thought.
Mia was setting on a bed in one of the rooms in the appartment. How she got there she couldn't remember. She knew something was wrong with that Hawiian punch she drank. After two cups, she felt alittle light headed; after 3 cups, she couldn't feel her teeth; and after 5 cups, she was light headed, she couldn't feel her teeth or her hair, the room was spinning, and she was having trouble breathing.
Bo was setting next to Mia on the bed. He knew that she would be passing out soon. "Mia, are you okay?" he smerked alittle pretending to care.
"Bo, I'm not feeling very well. I feel like my throat is closing up." Mia gasped. "I think I need to go home." she stood up, wasn't able to gain her balance, and fell back on the bed.
"I can't take you home right now." Bo put his arms around Mia and began to kiss her.
"Bo stop." she gasped again trying to fight him away. "I can't breath."
Michael pulled up in frount of Bo's appartment. He put the car in park than ran itno the building. The door to Scott's appartment was unlocked as usual. Michael bursted in the apparment and began to search it over for Mia. "Hey Moscovtiz what's up?" Ephram came up to Michael. "You wanna drink?"
"No, is Bo here?" Michael asked.
"Yeah, he's in the back room with some bitch. What of it?" Ephram asked.
"Look ass hole! She's not a bitch!" Michael exclaimed as he walked down the hall to the backroom.
Over his shoulder he heard Ephram say. "I didn't mean anything by it."
Michael started to open the door then relized it was locked. He took a step back then kicked it, breaking the knob, the door, and the door frame. The door flew opened, and he ran into see Mia passed out on the bed and Bo fiddling with the buckle on his pants, Mia's skirt was fliped up. Michael was about to freak out, he didn' t know what was going on. "It's easy to get a piece of ass when the girl is passed out." Michael said.
"What the fuck are you doing here?" Bo said.
"I told you not to fuck with Mia, Willis!" Michael exclaimed. "I hate to break up the date, but I'm taking her with me."
Michael picked Mia up at that point he noticed that she wasn't breathing and that her whole body was broken out in hyves. He knew that something was wrong and that he didn't have time to fight with Bo at this exact moment. "This is over." he said before walking on the door.
Helen was waiting impatiently by the phone. 'I'm the most horrible mother! I have never let Mia go out with some boy that I don't know, or to a house that I don't know! The one time that I do, according to Michael with the worst possible boy in the world! What is Phillipee going to say? He'll probley sue for costody of her. Then Clairess will send her to some Swiss boarding school!' she thought. The phone rang. "Hello?" Helen asked.
"Ms. Theremopolis, I have Mia. I'm on the way to the hospital right now." Michael said.
"Michael, what's wrong, is she okay?" Helen asked. "That little bastard didn't....did he?"
"I really don't know about that Ms. Theremopolis." The thought of Mia laying on the bed again with Bo standing over her flashed threw his mind and he was ready to kill him again. Taking a deep breath he said. "She's passed out...Ms Thermopolis, she's not breathing. I need you to meet me at the hospital."
Michael got off the phone with Helen just as he pulled into the hospital parking lot. He craddled Mia in his arms and ran into the Emergency Room. "I need some help! She's not breathing!" Michael yelled to the resptionist. She quickly motioned for some of the staff. A microsecond later, two orderlies, three nurses, and a doctor ran out pushing a gurney. "Whats, her name and age." One of the nurses asked Michael as one of the orderlies took Mia from his arms.
"Amelia Thermopolis, she's 15." Michael said.
"Do you know what's wrong with her?" The nurse asked as the orderlies began to push the gurney back to the ER.
"I found her at a party like this." Michael said, starting to follow them.
"Are you a family member?" she asked.
"A close friend, her mom's on her way." Michael replied watching the gurney turn a corner and disapearing from sight.
"Listen, you have to wait out her. I can't let you back with out the mother's permission." the nurse said before disappearing in the swinging doors.
Michael set down in one of the waiting room chairs. All around him where diffrent victims of some kind. Alittle girl with a high fever, a little boy in a football uniform with an ice pack on his knee, a guy Michael's age with a cut over his eye, just to name a few. Michael burried his head in his hands. 'God, if you really are up their, don't let her die! I'm shit with out her God! She's everything to me even if she doesn't know it. I need her in my life!' Michael prayed to himself as tears rolled down his cheeks. Suddenly a hand touched his head. Michael looked up to see Helen and Lilly standing there.
"Have you heard anything?" Helen asked.
"No, they wouldn't let me back there because I wasn't family." Michael said. "Lilly, what are you doing here?"
"Ms. Thermopolis called me." Lilly tightly hugged her older brother. "She's gonna be okay." she resured him.
Helen found out what bed Mia was in then she, Lilly, and Michael walked back. There was alot of ER staff working on Mia. Everyone was doing something, one was drawing blood from one arm, one was putting an IV in the other, one was putting a tube in Mia's nose, two where doing C.P.R., they were all yelling diffrent things to this one little nursing assistant who was doing her best to write every thing down. The sight was horrifying, Michael was staning outside of the room trying to comfort Helen, and Lilly was trying to comfort both Helen and Michael. "I know it's hard seeing someone you love so much laying there. She didn't deserve this." Lilly said to both Helen and Michael.
"Nobody does." Helen replied.
"He's going to pay for doing this to her." Michael said vengefully.
Mia looking so helpless laying their. Her face was drained of it's unual cheerfulness. Michael thought about earlier that day. How beautiful Mia looked, the sun shinned on her hair from the window in the G&T class, it was hard to belive that she was laying on a gurney somewhere between life and death.
'Come on Mia! You have to pull through this! If you don't then I'm not going to have anyone to talk to, your the only one who understands me. Your the only one who puts up with me phsyco-annalizing them!' Lilly thought.
After a few minutes a doctor came out. Michael was expecting to hear the worst. He already had tears running from his eyes. "Hello, Ms. Thermopolis I'm Dr. Durand Matthews." The young doctor introduced himself. "Here's what's going on with Amelia, we found large traces of G.H.P. in her system as well and large traces of alchole. I don't know if you have heard but G.H.P. is commonly known as the date rape drug. She had an allergic reaction to the G.H.P which is why she stopped breathing. She's in stable condition now, and is awake."
"Doctor, do you know if she was raped?" Helen asked.
"We have yet to do a rape test on her." Dr. Matthews said.
"Is she okay now?" Helen asked.
"She's doing alot better. If she would have been left laying their anytime longer, she would have died."
Michael let out a sigh of relife. "I would like to know what they gave her to drink. It was very potient. She said she didn't even know that she was drinking alchole at all, not to mention G.H.P." Dr. Matthews said.
"Everclear, it was chased with blue Hawiian punch. When you mix the two you can't taste the achole. You have to be careful Everclear is a very pure form of alchole if you aren't careful you can get alchole poisoning." Michael said. He had seen Ephram, Scott, and Brock make the concoction before, it was never drugged to make girls pasted out then. It wasn't a bad tasting drink either.
"How do you know?" Lilly asked, alittle in shock that her older brother knew all this.
"I've known Bo, and his friends for along time. I used to be friends with his friends. We would have little get togethers and would drink. That is what they usually served, I know that a lot of people got alchole poisoning from it if they weren't careful. When I stopped hanging out with them, is when they started talking about drugging girls so they could sleep with them. I thought it was all talk, I never expected them to go as far as doing it." Michael explained.
"Well, we are going to keep Amelia for tonight and maybe tommorow night. " Dr. Matthews said.
"I need to call Phillipee, you too probley need to get home. Your parents will be worried." Helen smiled.
"No, Lilly you stay here, with Ms. Thermopolis and Mia. I have some things to take care of." Michael said. "Dr. Matthews, is their anyway I can see her?" Mihcael asked.
"You would have to have her parent's permission." Dr. Matthews said.
'What is it a field trip?' Michael thought.
"Go ahead Michael." Helen smiled.
"Thanks." Michael said. He walked into the tiny room and pulled a chair to Mia's bed. She looked alot better. Her face was starting to get it's color back. The blotches where almost all gone from her face. She still had an IV and the tube in her nose was still feeding in random amounts of charcoal. "Hey Thermopolis, how you feeling." he held her hand in his, and with the other he stroked her hair.
"Like the biggest fool in the world. I should have listened to Lilly, she told me Bo was bad news." Mia sniffled, Michael knew that she had been crying.
"Your not the world's biggest fool, I am. I should have told you the truth about Bo. I was afraid you would think that I was being jelouse of him." Michael told her.
"Why would you be jelouse, your one of my best friends." Mia said.
Michael was about to tell Mia his feelings then desided that bed one in the Emergency Room wasn't the best place. "I just care for you a lot Mia, I don't want you to get hurt." Michael said.
"You know, you are my knight in shinning armor. You have rescued me so many times the past few days. I don't know what I would do with out you." Mia smiled a bit.
"Listen don't worry about Bo, I'm going to take care of that ass hole." Michael said, He kissed her had. "Get some rest. I'll be back as soon as I can. Your mom's here, and Lilly, and your dad may be on his way." Michael told her. "Get some rest."
Michael made a bee line for the door. "Michael wait, Bo's not worth it." Lilly chased after him.
"He might not be but Mia is. Go back and stay with Ms. Thermopolis, she and Mia both need your right now." Michael said then walking out the door.
