Chapter 6

I woke up with an oxygen mask on my face and an IV in my arm. It took a few seconds for me to remember what happened and then everything came rushing back into my mind. I looked around the room. I'm not in the ER anymore they must have admitted me for the night I thought. My gaze stops on the person sitting in the chair reading a magazine. I raise my hand and remove the mask and say a very weak hi. Sasha jumped at my voice and then looked over at me and smiled.

"You scared me Faith. How are you feeling?" Sasha asked then walked up to the side of my bed.

"Peachy." I answer in my usual way making her laugh a little. "What happened?"

"The doctor said you have a slight concussion and that you went into a panic attack when he was examining you. They got you stable then finished your exam while you where still sleeping. That's all I know the rest you will have to ask the doctor when you see him." Sasha replied.

"Where are Davis and Sully?"

"They went back to the house to change. They got off work about an hour ago. Ty said they will be back here after they get breakfast. I thought maybe you would want a little company so here I am." Sasha said.

"Ok. Thanks for staying here."

"Can I ask you something Faith?"

"Depends on what it is I guess."

"Can you tell me what happened to you Faith?"

"I don't really feel like talking about that right now Sasha." I replied to her turning my head to face the other way.

"Hey that's ok don't worry about it. When you are ready you know who you can call. Sully said that if you want he and Ty can take your statement instead of someone else."

I looked back over at Sasha. She looked like she didn't sleep much and had a worried expression on her face. I hate making people worry about me I will be alright I have to be alright if I'm going to make it through this. I try to believe that but why do I feel that it just might be too hard to do that by myself. Sasha, Sully, and Ty are my friends and I know they will help me anyway they can. There is just one person that I didn't include in that and that's Bosco should I tell him what happened. I don't really know what I want to do about him I haven't talked to him in so long he probably doesn't want to listen to me. My thoughts are interrupted by a knock on the door. Sasha got up and walked over and opened the door Sully and Davis was standing on the other side of the door.

"Don't just stand there guys come on in." I said giving them a nod and a hello when they reached the bed.

"How you doing, Faith?" Davis asked.

"Ok I guess. I'm sorry for worrying you guys so much you all look like you need to go home and go to sleep."

"We will as soon as we know you are alright." Sully said as he pulled up a chair and sat down next too me.

"Yeah we are not leaving you in this place all by yourself hospitals are not that pleasant and I myself hate them and I'm sure you do too right?" Sasha said moving over to the other side of the bed and sat down.

"No I don't like them." I replied and then looked over at Ty. "If you ask the nurse she could get you a chair too Ty." Ty standing against the wall looking like he was about to fall over.

"Might be a good idea I will be back in a minute guys." Ty said then walked out the door and over to the nurses station across the hall.

"I tried to get a hold of your husband Faith but he didn't answer the phone or the door when I stopped there. I'm sorry." Sully said not looking in my direction.

"It's ok Sully. I don't really know where Fred is right now. He left about three days ago with the kids and I haven't heard from them since." I told him in a hurtful and sad voice.

"I didn't know. I'm sorry Faith."

"Hey don't worry so much about it. Fred would be just freaking out too much and I don't think I could handle having him around anyways."

"Well I'm still sorry he did that too you." Sully said.

"Thanks." I said quietly.

"Sully, do you and Ty have the day off today?" Sasha asked to get the subject change wish I was very grateful for.

"Yea we do." Ty answered for Sully as he was walking in the room with a chair in his arms. He sat the chair down next to Sully then sat down in it.

"That's good I'm glad because you two are going to be too tired to do anything today. I already had the day off today. Faith I'm going to go get some coffee do you want some?" Sasha asked.

"Yea I could really use some thank you." I replied to her with a small smile. Sasha smiled back and then walked out of the room.

"So how are you two doing?" I asked looking at a spot on the wall. I was just a little nervous laying here with them here must be just my mind working overtime again and I took a few deep breaths to calm myself. Sully was the first to notice that I was uncomfortable and was the one that spoke up first.

"I'm doing ok. I know this situation is going to be hard for you Faith, but it will really help a lot if you just tell us what happened. We are not going to judge you I really hope you know that."

"I know that. I just don't think I can tell you."

"We have all day Faith, just take your time when you feel like you can talk just talk ok." Ty said giving me his support in this too.

"That's right Ty we all have the time and we are not pushing you into anything so just relax and have some coffee." Sasha said as she walked back in the room holding two cups and handed one to me. I took the cup and thanked her before taking a small sip. My eyes drifted around the room at my friends there looks of acceptance and understanding filling me with the nerve to talk to them.

"I was walking home from work..................." My sentence was cut off by the sound of a phone ringing. I looked over at Sully and asked him if he knew where my purse was because the phone was my cell. Sully found my purse and handed it to me. I took the phone out of the bag and looked at the number on the phone and then put it to my ear and answered it.

"Hello." I said into the phone and if I could have seen myself I sure that I turned white at the sound of the voice on the other end then everything went dark again.
