chapter two.
Ellie was stunned. 'Why the hell is Paige calling me for?' she thought. "Paige...?" she asked suprised into the reciever.
"Yeah...What you shocked that I called you?" Paige asked.
"Actually. Yes."
"Well, uh...yeah."
"Well...why are you calling me?" Ellie asked. Kind of impatient, she wasn't really dizzy anymore. Which was good, but the blood was still seeping (sp?) through her washcloth. "Damnit..!" she whispered to herself.
"What did you say?" Paige asked, questionably.
"Uh...nothing." Ellie managed to say. "So why did you call?"
"I don't want to sound corny, or big-sisterish. Because I know we aren't that close, but..." Paige started to say. But Ellie sort of interupted her.
"But...?"
"I just wanted to see how you were doing, you seem kind of, depressed at school..."
"Well, I'm not, so drop it." Ellie was inches away from hanging up the phone, when she heard Paige's muffled voice on the other end.
"Wait...!" she said.
Ellie placed the phone reciever back up to her ear, not expecting that. Or maybe Paige didn't like being hung up on, so she wanted to do a proper good-bye, or maybe hang up on Ellie. "What do you want Paige?" she asked rudely. Ellie hadn't realized that her arm was still bleeding. And badly. She felt a little woozy, but nothing more. The blood on Ellie's left arm was soaking through her cloth, turning it a dark red. "Paige...I uh, I really have to go, uh...something's wrong." Ellie hurried to say. "With my mother....something's wrong with my mother." Ellie lied into the phone. She waited for Paige's response.
"Ellie, you're lying." Paige said. "If something is wrong with your mother, I'm coming over to help."
"No! Don't. It's fine. Everything is fine." And hung up the phone.
...............................................................
Paige hung up after she had heard the dial tone. She didn't trust what Ellie had said, so she gathered up her things, and rushed over to Ellie's place. She could tell in her voice, something was wrong. And it wasn't her mother. She passed a few people on the way, including Jimmy and Hazel, but she blew them off. She ran into Spinner, also. And tried to get away, and hurry to Ellie's. But Spinner stopped her.
"Paige! Wait!" Spinner yelled, running up to her, and trying to catch his breath as he finally caught up with her.
"What, Spinner!?" Paige yelled back, a little teary eyed. "I'm...I'm sorry." Spinner grabbed her, and pulled her into a hug.
"What's the matter?" he asked.
"I think something is wrong with Ellie, and I need to hurry up and get to her house before something bad happens..." she said all in one breath.
"Well...then why aren't you driving there?"
"Because my mom has her van, and Dylan is on a date with Marco." Paige said. "I have to hurry, I need to hurry." and started to run off, again.
"I'm coming with you. Let's go." Spinner said, and ran off with her.
...............................................................
Ellie couldn't stop the bleeding, and she wasn't feeling to hot. She felt like she was about to pass out. Just then she heard the doorbell ring. "Damnit." Ellie whispered to herself. She gathered herself up, and tried to get down the stairs. She really felt like she was going to pass out. And she did. She tumbled down the stairs, and didn't feel a thing as she was unconcious.
"Oh my God! Ellie!! Ellie!" Paige yelled form the other side of the door. "Oh my God. El, hun! Ellie, open the door!" Paige started to feel more tears swell up in her eyes, and she let one steal its way down her cheek. She tried to open the door, but it was locked. "Spinner go see if the back door is open." Spinner just stood there. "Sipnner go!" As she hit him in the stomach he jumped back to reality, and ran as fast as he could. But Paige found a window open, and decided to climb through it. It was small, but she fit. When she got through the window, she saw Ellie laying passed out on the ground at the foot of the staircase. "Oh my God..." she whispered, and ran to her. Spinner saw Paige inside, and rushed to the window she climbed through, and went through it also.
"Is she okay?" he asked. And Paige just looked up at him.
"Quick, call the hospital." Paige and Spinner both caught a glimpse of Ellie's left arm, and saw the deepened wound, and the cloth in her right hand. Paige started to cry even more. Spinner even felt some tears in his eyes, and he barely even talked to Ellie, but just the mere thought of her hurting herself, and went to far, and this is how she ended up, just kind of got to him. "Spinner! Call!" Paige yelled at him.
Within 2 minutes Paige had tried to stop the bleeding, but it just kept flowing, and Spinner had returned. About 30 seconds later, they heard the sirens, and Spinner, opened the door, and let the paramedics in.
"What happened here?" One of the paramedics asked.
Paige and Spinner looked at each other.
"Ellie!! Ellie!! What's wrong!? What happened here!! Someone answer me, and do it now!!" someone yelled from the foot of the door, staring down at Ellie. It was her mother.
Ellie was stunned. 'Why the hell is Paige calling me for?' she thought. "Paige...?" she asked suprised into the reciever.
