Chapter 7: Earthquake!
Teresa was screaming. Fox was worried, he didn't know what to do, but be the man in this situation and take care of Teresa. He laid his body on top of hers to protect her from the wharf that was falling from above. He wrapped his arms around her head to protect and her just held her. A piece of wood fell from the wharf and hit Fox's head, hard. Teresa screamed. Not only was she in the middle of an earthquake, but the one thing protecting her couldn't protect her any longer. She knew she had to take action so she laid her body on top of Fox's body and protected him.
Once the quake ended Teresa grabbed her phone and called Miguel because she knew Luis' phone would be jammed with calls for help after the quake. Miguel came and got Teresa and Fox and drove them to the hospital. Teresa checked Fox in and called his sister Allison. Ally arrived with Dylan who had arrived at the airport moments before the quake.
"Teresa, is he okay?" "I don't Ally, they haven't told me anything yet."
"This is just great. What happened?"
Teresa explained everything and Ally didn't look all too pleased. Finally Dr. Russell came out and said that Fox had a mild concussion and would be fine in a couple of days. Teresa, Ally, Dylan, and Miguel were relieved. Teresa called Whitney and told her what happened and she rushed over to Harmony Hospital.
After about three hours, Whitney got a call from Harmony High saying that the graduation would be pushed back for quite some time and she would be contacted with more information later. Whitney thanked the person and told Teresa. Teresa went up to the nurses' station and asked to see Fox.
"May I please see Mr. Fox Crane?"
"We're sorry ma'am, but not at the moment."
Ally heard this and almost took the nurses' head off. She was dying to see Fox. About an hour later, Fox walked out of a room and was flooded with hugs, kisses, and questions. He told everyone that he just wanted to go back to Pilar's home because he knew that she'd take care of him. After arguing with Ally for about what seemed like an hour he and Teresa left and arrived at her place.
"Teresa, the details about what happened are a bit sketchy. Could you explain what happened?" he asked Teresa. Teresa smiled at him and said, "Later, after you rest a bit and eat something we'll talk. I promise." She kissed his cheek and sat him down to eat something.
That night, Fox slept in Teresa's bedroom with her. She kept a close eye on him, making sure that he was okay. Teresa kissed Fox's cheek after he fell asleep and she pulled out her diary to write in it after what seemed like an eternity had passed. **Diary Entry** Dear Diary,
Its raining now and Fox is asleep in my bed. I know you're wondering why I'm not there next to him. It was because there was an earthquake today. We were having dinner that he had prepared and he kissed me when we were dancing and we felt the ground move and it was an earthquake. He protected me, but was hurt in the process. I called Miguel after to take us to the hospital and he was diagnosed with a concussion. I really think I love him, diary. I really do. All right its late now and I don't want the light to wake Fox up so goodnight. Teresa. **END OF ENTRY**
Teresa went and laid next Fox and soon after she fell asleep and the entire world was calm except the world of the Cranes and the main house. For them, the night was just getting started.
