Chapter 8
This was it. Georgie stepped out of Dillon's car and immediately felt the bitter cold wrap around her, overwhelming her senses and making her wish that she could go back to his car; to where it was safe and warm.
Taking a deep breath, she let all thoughts of Dillon be pushed aside and walked into her first period class. Her English teacher, Mrs. Salane, gave her a sympathetic look as took her seat. As the rest of the class filed in, she could feel their eyes on her.
The bell rang but the class took no notice. They had to many other things on their mind. Georgie knew exactly what those things were and decided to end a conversation before it started. She cleared her throat and made sure she was loud enough that everyone would here her. "You know, if you're staring at me because you're waiting for me to go into hysterics or something, you can go back to your own business because it's not going to happen!" Every eye in the room was on her now and the teacher decided to start class before any more outbursts were allowed to occur.
The rest of the day went on the same way and Georgie was about to snap. Lunch was awkward. Sam kept trying to make her laugh and when she didn't, he would mutter something about her only laughing for Dillon under his breath. Normally, Georgie would say something about his behavior and reassure him that nothing was going on between her and Dillon besides a renewed friendship, but she didn't have the energy or patience to argue with him at the moment.
~*~ Meanwhile, Dillon walked into General Hospital and when he got to where he wanted to be, he looked both ways before slipping into the room.
The beeping of machines was enough to make anyone go mad. He wasn't surprised that room was vacant besides the lifeless body lying on the white sheets. He hated hospitals. The cleanliness, he believed, was simply a way to cover up the lives lost in those very rooms every day. Of course, he would never let anyone know this. Especially not now, when he had finally convinced Georgie that there was still a chance that her mother would walk out of the immaculate room.
"Mrs. Jones, I know that we don't know each other very well, but I'm Georgie's friend Dillon. We've met a few times, but I moved soon after you came back. I'm here because I wanted to make sure you know how much Georgie needs you. I don't think anybody realizes how much this is affecting her, but believe me she'd be lost forever. I know Maxie feels the same away," He said. He was about to elaborate when he saw the woman move. Her eyes slowly opened and he heard her speak quietly.
"Mac?" she whispered.
Dillon didn't answer. He just ran to get help.
A/n: okay, please don't hurt me. I'm really sorry that it took so long for me to update. I haven't watched General Hospital since October so this will all be written without Sage in it. I'm sorry for the long wait and I promise that I'll get chapters posted sooner from now on. I'm hoping to finish this before I go back to school or at least before we get report cards (if not, it may be another long wait because of my being grounded. Math isn't looking to promising at the moment).
