The next day at school Emma took her seat in Mr. Simpson's class. Emma sat in between Toby and Manny. Emma turned to Toby as soon as the bell rang, "Where's Jt?" "Haven't you heard? Jt was found lying on the road yesterday while it was raining." "Oh my gosh! What happened to him?" "Doctors said he was brutally beat up. No one knows who did it. Jt could barely talk." "Is he going to be ok?" Mr. Simpson walked to them, "No talking you two." Mr. Simpson raised is voice so that everyone was able to hear him, "As you may have heard, Jt Yorke is in the hospital. He is critically injured and will not be coming to school for weeks. He is not in a very good condition right now so let's just hope for the best for him and his family right now." Emma looked at Liberty. She was looking at Mr. Simpson like she was about to cry since she likes Jt.

That day at Lunch Emma sat with Toby and Manny, "So Toby, tell me everything you know." "Well, the doctors said he would make a full recovery. But Jt isn't in the stage of talking." "Who could have done this?" Emma looked at Manny, "What's wrong Manny? Who seem sad? This hasn't effected you. has it?" Manny lifted her head up, "Emma, what I'm going through is personal. I better go." Manny threw her lunch away and walked to the washroom.

Emma looked at Toby, "What has been going on?"

Jt slowly opened his eyes and saw he was in the hospital surrounded by balloons and cards that say get well. The door opened, to Jt's hate, it was Paige. Paige sat down by the bedside, "Jt, I know you can't talk. So I want you to listen. I'm sorry." Paige started crying, "I didn't mean to get you involved." Jt looked at Paige trying to get words out of his mouth, "Paige.i. it.." "Jt, no, it's my fault your like this. I found out that his rich, lawyer uncle, bailed Dean out of prison. I can't imagine why he did this to you."

A doctor walked into the room, "Miss, you're not allowed to be in here, only family members allowed." Paige looked at Jt, "Ok, but can I at least tell him something important? Please it won't take long. I promise you won't get in trouble. Please." The doctor looked at Paige to Jt and back at Paige, "Please make it fast. I don't want his parents to see you though." "Ok." The doctor stepped out the door and Paige turned to Jt. "When you get better, do you think you ant to, maybe hang out with me? For real." Paige stared at Jt shake his head no. "Please Jt." Jt continued to shake his head no. The door swung open and the doctor came back in, "You must leave, Mr. Yorke's parents are here." The doctor led Paige out of the room and away from Jt's sight.

Paige sat down in the waiting room waiting for Jt's parents to come out. After a matter of minutes they did. Paige stood up and confronted them, "I know who did it." Mrs. Yorke gave out a gasp and quickly sat down. Paige sat next to her, "His name his Dean. He raped me and I told Jt. So during a basketball game Jt tried to fight him." "Why are you telling me this?" "I think you should know. I want Jt's friendship, and I have a plan." "Ok, continued." Paige took a deep breath, "Well, he went to court and was sentenced to jail for only 6 months. But he was freed 5 months soon. He wanted his revenge that Jt tried to fight him. So knowing who it is and Jt as the evidence, I think we can put him back to jail." "Will it work? I mean who else have you told that would get their life in danger?" Mrs. Yorke started to raise her voice so that she could be heard throughout the whole room. Paige stood up also, "I didn't tell anyone else, but my friend Spinner." Paige ran out of the hospital to Spinner's house.
