A/N
"James, don't you walk away from me." I called leaving Caleb and walling to where Jimmy as sitting.
"Julie back off." Sandy said.
"He has to revoke that contract." I ordered.
"No he doesn't." Sandy contradicted.
"Doesn't my opinion matter?" I asked.
"It would have if you had voiced it before the contract was signed." Sandy explained.
"What if Marrissa wants it revoked?" I asked.
"Than it can be." Sandy said.
"Well, she does." I said.
"No she doesn't." Jimmy countered.
"Let me handle this Cooper." Sandy ordered.
"I'm not something you 'handle' Sanford." I yelled.
"Julie please." Kirsten said incredulously.
"What?" I asked.
"Don't be such a drama bitch." Kirsten explained.
"Excuse me?" I asked.
"That's right." Kirsten said.
"Listen." Chris spoke from his corner of the room.
"What Chris?" Sandy asked calmly.
(IN THE WAITING ROOM, CHRIS'S POV)
"Listen." I spoke from the corner of the room.
"What Chris?" Sandy asked calmly.
"What's the point in arguing if no one really knows what Marrissa wants." I asked.
"What?" Kirsten asked confused.
"Julie, you don't want her doing this because she would be to independent and you can't handle the fact the she needs to be on her own, right?"
"No." Julie tried to defend herself half-heartedly.
"And Jimmy you only want Marrissa to keep doing the show so Julie doesn't get her own way right?"
"Maybe." Jimmy admitted.
"So why don't you find out what Marrissa wants before you rip each other's head off?" I asked pointedly.
"Because I know she wants to be off the show." Julie argued.
"No you don't Julie." Jimmy argued.
"Jimmy why don't you go talk to Marrissa first, and then Julie you can go." Chris suggested.
"I'm going first." Julie said.
"Fine." Jimmy agreed.
(IN MARRISS'S ROOM, MARRISSA'S POV)
"Hey mom." I said when mom walked into my room.
"Hey sweetie." Mom greeted.
"What's up?"
"Nothing much."
"Okay."
"I just wanted to talk to you about the show."
"Mom not this again." I argued.
"Honey I just wanted to be sure that you know what you're doing." Mom said.
"Mom, I know what I'm doing."
"What?"
"I'm doing a show for fox."
"Don't be smart."
"Whatever."
"Don't whatever me young lady."
"Mom what do you want?" I asked.
"You're sure you want to do this?" She asked again."Yes mom."
"Okay baby."
"I'm not a baby."
"Marrissa..." Mom started.
"Yes mother?"
"Don't take that tone with me."
"Whatever."
"Your father wants to see you now."
"Okay."
"He'll be right in."
"Thanks mom."
"Sure.""Hey kiddo." Dad greeted when he walked in two minutes later.
"Your ex is driving me crazy." I said pointedly.
"That's why she's my ex." Dad said laughing.
"Dad."
"Okay did she talk to you?"
"About the show you mean?"
"Ya."
"Yep."
"What did you decide?"
"There was never a contest, I'm staying on the show."
"Okay, good."
"Why do you want me to stay on so bad?"
"It's just that I want you to be happy."
"Okay daddy."
"Now be a good girl and get some rest."
"Can Ryan come in?"
"Sure I'll get him."
"Thanks daddy."
"No problem kiddo."
"See ya."
"Yep." Dad said closing the door behind him as he left.
(IN MARRISS'S ROOM, RYAN'S POV)
"Hay babes." Marrissa greeted me as I walked into her room.
"Hey sweets." I greeted back.
"Will you stay with me?"
"Of course."
"Good, where's my shake?"
"Not here yet."
"Okay, put it on my table when it comes?"
"Yep."
"I'm going to sleep now okay?"
"I'll be here when you wake up."
"Thanks Ry." Marrissa said rolling over and closing her eyes.
"Anytime." I said opening and closing the box that was in my pocket.
(IN THE WAITING ROOM, SETH'S POV)
"Hey guys, foods here." I said when we reached the waiting room.
"Finally." Sandy said reaching for a burger and drink.
"Help yourself." I said sarcastically.
"Thanks I will." Sandy said back going back to his seat and sitting down.
"I'm going to bring Coop her shake." Summer said.
"Okay." I replied.
"Thanks Seth." Kirsten said as she poured salad dressing over her salad.
"Sure mom." I replied grabbing mine and Summer's meals and sitting down a little ways away form everybody.
"Where's my food? I'm starving." Summer said as she sat beside me.
"Right here." I said handing her, her burger.
"Thanks."
"Sure."
"So how long do you think Coop will be in here?"
"Don't know."
"What are we doing this week?"
"Ryan and Rissa were supposed to have a promotional shoot."
"Oh."
"So were we."
"Why aren't we?"
"Shouldn't we stay here with Rissa?
"She'll be fine for a couple of hours."
"Our last shoot took 7 hours."
"Okay she'll still be fine, Ryan's here."
"Good point."
"And if it's a beach shoot we can bring her back a balboa bar." Summer pointed out.
"Okay, I'll let Chris know." I agreed to do the shoot.
"Good." Summer said pigging into her burger.
(LATER ON IN MARRISSA'S ROOM, SETH'S POV)
"How did you all get in here?" Marrissa asked us.
"Well we got past the nurse." Summer said.
"Duh." Marrissa said in a could-it-be-more-obvious tone.
"And then we just ran down the hallway quickly, so we wouldn't get caught.
"Cool, but why'd you all have to come together?"
"It's Friday." I said.
"So?" Marrissa asked.
"Movie night." Ryan agreed.
"Right," Marrissa remembered.
"Julie used grandpa's money to get you a DVD player in here, so we brought your choice of movies." I said.
"Oh, what movies?" Marrissa asked.
"Mean Girls, Forest Gump, The Village, and Jeepers Creepers 3."
"Ooh, can we watch Jeepers Creepers?" Marrissa asked.
"3." I added.
"Sure," Ryan said, "Whatever you want."
"I want you to come sit with me, or I'll be scared."
"You'll be scared anyway but I would love to sit with you."
"Good."
"We'll sit here." Summer said flopping down on a cot beside the bed.
"Okay." I agreed, putting in the movie and sitting down beside her my arms wrapped around her waist.
(OUTSIDE OF MARRISSA'S ROOM, KIRSTEN'S POV)
Looking in at the kids, I smiled. Ryan was with Marrissa on her hospital bed, probably not allowed but Kirsten would let it slide. Marrissa was leaning with her head on his shoulder and her arm draped over his waist, while his one arm was around her shoulders. Seth and Summer were in the cot beside the bed and they were lying together, Seth's arms wrapped around her waist. Summer's head on his chest.
"Excuse me miss." A nurse said.
"Oh sorry." I said moving out of the way.
"What are all those kids doing in there?" The nurse asked when she looked in the window.
"Oh," I said, "It's their movie night on Friday's they always watch a movie together."
"But there's only allowed one visitor at a time."
"My father-Caleb Nicol-said they could all go in."
"Oh Mr.Nicol, I'll comeback when their movies done." The nurse said bustling down the hall.
"Thank you." I called after her looking once more at the children I smiled and walked down the hall towards the bathrooms.
