Paige Michalchuk and Hazel Aden ran into the hospital, followed by their boyfriends, Spinner Mason and Jimmy Brooks. Paige ran up to the receptionist out of breath. "Terri McGreggor?" she asked.
"Yes," the blond receptionist said. She told them Terri's room number and they took off to the elevator. As soon as the doors had shut did any of them stop to take a breath.
"I couldn't believe it when Terri's dad called and told me that she was awake," Paige said, sighing.
"I couldn't believe it when you called me," Hazel said. "I think I scared my mom when I screamed 'YES'!"
Spinner and Jimmy just smiled. They had all felt guilty about what had happened to Terri when her stupid boyfriend, Rick went psycho and beat her so badly that he nearly killed her!
The elevator opened up and they walked out and went to Terri's room. Terri was sitting up in bed. She didn't look as badly beaten up as she did the night that Paige and Spinner had found her (AUTHOR'S NOTE: I have not seen the episode I'm just going by what's happening on Degrassi's official website and other websites).
"Hey," Paige said, smiling.
"Hi, guys," Terri replied. Terri's dad had told them that there might be a slight memory loss but she seemed to recognize her friends.
"What's up?" Hazel asked.
"Me," Terri said, smiling proudly.
"Yeah," Hazel and Paige said, smiling.
Hazel and Paige walked over and hugged her. "We're so glad that you're awake, hon," Paige replied, looking at Terri, tears were starting to roll down her cheek and she was thankful that she wore waterproof makeup.
"So am I," Terri replied. She looked past them at the guys. "Hi." She smiled.
"Hey, Terri," the guys said.
She smiled widely at them. "Come in here at least," she said. "Don't stand out in the hall."
Spinner and Jimmy walked into the room and Spinner sat down on the bed. He was spacing out. "What's up?" she asked.
He looked at her. "I'm really sorry, Terr," he said.
"For what?" she asked.
"For letting that jerk beat you up and not do anything about it," he replied, he was angry now. He gripped the chain that hung from his jeans and Terri reached out and touched his hand, Paige put a hand on his shoulder.
"It's not your fault, Spin," she replied. "Or yours Paige. It's mine. I should've opened my eyes and seen Rick for who he really was."
Spinner looked at her. "I still feel like it's my fault."
She shook her head. "It's not."
Spinner gripped her hand and Jimmy walked over and looked at Terri. "Do you want us to beat him up for you?" he asked. "Do what he did to you?"
She shook her head. "Don't get into a fight over me," she said.
They nodded. Even though they wanted to go hunt that S.O.B. down and beat the hell out of him, they listened to Terri. They didn't want to do anything that might hurt Terri.
"How long are you going to be stuck in here?" Hazel asked.
"A little bit longer," she said. "I have to go through physical therapy to get better to walk."
"Walk?" Spinner asked.
She nodded. "I can't really move my legs or anything like that."
They nodded and then a nurse walked in. "Time for blood work," the nurse said.
"Oh joy," Terri replied. "The vampire's back."
"Well, we'll leave," Paige said. She leaned down and hugged Terri and then Hazel hugged her. The boys just smiled at her and then they took off.
Terri smiled. They were the first ones to visit her besides her dad and they were freaking out. The nurse drew her blood and gave her a pain killer which knocked her out.
