Day 3-Part 1
Emma's POV
I sat in the bathroom for what seemed like hours..then I went home. The next day I laid in bed waiting for my mom to come harass me into going to school as usual. When I went downstairs Jack was curled up on the couch sleeping and a note was on the table next to him.
Emma
Since you're staying home keep an eye on Jack. Be Home Soon!
Love Mom
I sighed and looked at my 1 year old brother sleeping. He'd gotten big over the past year and still growing. I smiled at him as he punched the air with his pudgy fist.
Sitting next to Jack, who continued to sleep, I picked up the remote and turned on the TV. Flipping through channels I came across the news. I was about to hit the up button for the next channel when Sean's house cam into view. The reporter came on.
"Yes Donald, very sad indeed. Now onto..."
I flipped to the news recap channel. I felt my stomach turn. Ellie was being wheeled on a stretcher to an awaiting ambulance. Sean's car was nowhere in sight which confirmed he had gone to school. I jumped up and started dressing Jack, I had to get to Sean.
Sean's POV
Begin Flashback
I got home last and found Ellie sitting on the couch watching TV. In her hand I saw a piece of pizza and a bottle of water in her hand. I sat down next to her and watched the black and white movie with her. WhenI sat near her she scooted over, when I reached for her hand she pulled away and when I put my arma round her she stood uip, obviously fed up.
"Who do you choose?" She asked, I didn't know what to say. "I'm going to take a shower. I hope you decide by the time I'm done." She turned and walked to the bathroom, slamming the door.
I picked up the phone and dialed Emma's number and hung up. Rubbign my temples I thought...Emma had always been there and she wasn't as needy as Ellie. But if..he let her go she might do something drastic. Growling to myself I stood up and went to the kitchen, eating the last piece of pizza. I came to my decision as I ate my pizza and downed some soda. I walked into the bathroom, Ellie had left the shower curtain half open. I walked over and opened it the rest of the way...she didn't even move from washing her face.
"I have a decision." She rinsed her face and looked at me. As beautiful as she was with water cascading down her gorgeous hair and pale white skin I didn't love her. She nodded and started washing her hair as I sat on the toilet seat, just as she had the day before. "Emma." I said. She rinsed her hair and grabbed a towel before looking at me, tears welling in her eyes.
"W...what...?" She asked, clutching the towel to her.
"Emma," I aid flaty. She stared at me and then glared.
"If she'll have you," She spat and stormed to the bedroom, locking the door. That was the last time I saw her.
End Flashback
I was sitting in the office wondering what was so urgetn. The office was abuzz. The phones were ringing off the hook and people were running back and forth, papers fluttering.
I thought about Emma and what I had said. I thought about how much I missed her and how I was sure that this was going to work. While I drowned myself in these thoughts Mr.Raditch came out.
"Mr. Cameron, come into my office." He said solemnly. I followed him in and sat in the chair across his desk.
"Yes sir?" I said.
"Were you a friend of Eleanor Nash?" He asked, holding up a picture of her taken only a week ago. She was sitting in the Zen garden with Ashley. Craig had snapped the picture just as she smiled her best smile along with Ashley, the two were beautiful in that picture.
"Yes, she was my girlfriend." I paused when I heard the was. "We're living together.." I said, realizing she'd have nowhere else to go.
"Are you aware that only a few hours ago Ms. Nash was taken to the hospital in an ambulance?" He aske.d
"What?" I replied, hoping I'd heard wrong.
"Mr. Cameron, Eleanor was found in your apartment with an empty pill bottle in one hand and a science compass in the other." I felt paralyzed, I couldn't move. Mr. Raditch paused and looked down. "Her wrists were mutilated." He finished. My hands gripped the arms of the chair and I began to sweat. Ellie...oh please God...no..not Ellie...this is my fault...oh God.
"Is..." I swallowed the growing lump in my throat. "Is she okay?" I asked. "Will she be alright?" Mr. Raditch sighed again and looked at me.
"She is in critical condition right now...we're not sure how long she'll last." He said. I juped up and ran out of the door. I saw Emma handing Jack to her step-dad. I ran to her and gaver her a big hug. She looked me in the eye and pulled me to the car. I stopped her.
"Emma what's going on?" I asked. I wondered if she knew or if she was just wanting to be alone with me.
"We have to get to the hospital!" She yelled, opening the car door to the drivers seat. "You coming or not?" She asked, full of determination. I hopped into the passenger seat and we sped to the hospital. As we drove my hand intertwined with hers.
Emma's POV
While we drove Sean's hand found mine and mixed our fingers. I smiled inside. When his warm hands hit mine that had been so cold I wanted to melt. We drove in silence. Both of us wondering if Ellie would be okay. We had both been told from reliable sources that she had downed a bottle of pills and mutilated her wrists with a science compass. She had been bleeding so badly,s he ahd second thought sand dialed 911. But after a few seconds of speaking with the emergency operator she had passed out. He squeezed my hand and I looked at him for a second.
"Emma, about yesterday. I didn't mean itt.." He said quickly.
"I know Sean...I know." I squeezed his hand as we arrived at our destination. We dashed from the car and entered the emergency room. Not knowing what was to come.
Sean's POV
We ran into a nurse as we headed to the emergency counter. Her tray of bandages flew into the air.
"Oh I'm so sorry!" Emma cried and began picking up the bandages and hurridly placing them on the tray. When they were all on she grabbed my hand and we went to the counter.
"Ellie Nasth," I said, suddenly realizing that she was Eleanor here. "Eleanor Nash," I said to the confused nurse.
"Oh she's in critical care, I'm not sure..."
"Please we have to see her!" Emma said. Why was she so anxious to see Ellie?
"Are you family?" Emma looked at me and nodded.
"I'm her sister and this is our brother." She said. Our hands under the counter we let go.
The woman looked surprised but nodded and directed us to her room. I will never forget the shock and feeling I felt when I saw Ellie lying in the bed with thick bandages on her wrists, IV's everywhere...blood being pumped into her to replace what she had lost. Emma ran over and hugged Ellie.
"Oh Ellie," She cried softly. Then it hit me.
"Emma is Ellie really your sister?" I asked.
"No," She replied. "But still look what I've done to her." She cried. I sighed...
"It's my fault, I told her I chose you when she said choose." As Emma opened her mouth the doctor came in, a grim look on his face.
