Thank you so much for replying! Sorry that I took so long to update, there was a family emergency, but everything is okay now, so on with the story!

Chapter 11 – A house is not a home, it's a building

"Mommy, it's Haley, please come home." I listen for her response.

"Haley, I wish that I could, but I can't just leave your father here." I am so stupid I can't believe that I actually thought that my own mother would come home when I need her here.

"Bring dad home with you, then, please mommy, I really need you."

"Haley, you're a big girl I'm sure that you will be fine."

"Mom, I have never asked you for anything, not once in my whole life. You are never here ever and I need you, just once I really really need you, so please just come home." I am mad now, but mostly I am really hurt that she can't cut her stupid vacation short and come and help her daughter.

"Haley, I have given you food, clothes and a beautiful house, and you are so ungrateful."

"That is just stuff mom, I need you to come home and be here and tell me that you love me and just make everything okay."

"Haley, it was really nice taking to you, but your dad is waiting for me, we are meeting some friends so we have to go, sorry sweetie, I love you."

"No you don't, you don't love me, and no one does." I wanted her to hear that but she had already hung up. What was wrong with me, why doesn't anyone care about me, not even my own mother? I realize that I have Nathan who cares so I pick up the phone to call him, but he doesn't answer. I don't really feel like leaving a message. I sit her on the bathroom floor looking around, I can't stand it, I have to leave this house, this empty worthless house. I need to go, anywhere.

I grab my keys and I start to drive, I just drive, no destination in mind. I start o cry and don't want to drive with clouded vision so I pull over and just let myself break down. I pull out my cell phone to try and call Nathan again, still no answer. I calm myself down and decide to go to his house and see if he is home. I get to his door and ring the doorbell but get no answer. I try knocking and this time his mother comes to the door.

"Is Nathan home?"

"No he's not, he is down at the river court playing basketball if you want to go down there to find him." I thank her and get back into my car and start to head down tot the court. As I'm driving I think about everything that has happened in the past few weeks. Meeting Nathan, dating Nathan. Nathan has really been there for me, even though I keep pushing him away. I am really luck to have found him. He is the most amazing person. I really do love him. My mind then travels to Brooke. I thought that she was my best friend, but I guess that I was wrong. I really need her help and she just yells at me. How could she get so mad over the fact that I told Nathan first, which isn't even true! I want to be mad at her, it would be easier to be mad at her, but I am not. I am hurt that she wont be there for me. Brooke has always been there always. No matter what it was that had happened she would be there for me, and I don't know what to do without her there. I expected that my mom wouldn't come home and be there for me, but Brooke, I thought would come through for me, but she didn't. I don t know…I look up and see headlight shining in my face, I try to swerve to get out of the way, but end don't do it in time and fell the car being smashed in to and my head smashes in to the steering wheel. The car starts to fall to the side and I realize that it is going to turn over, and as it does I get thrown into the windshield, right before it all goes dark.

I wake up in an all white room and I look around realizing immediately that it is a hospital. I look to me left and see Nathan asleep in a chair. I look around the rest of the room hoping to find Brooke, but she is not there. Nathan starts to stir, and as soon as he looks at me he jumps up and runs over to me.

"I was so worried about you. How are you feeling?"

"My head hurts, but besides that I feel fine. What time is it?"

"Its three in the morning. O god, I am just so happy that you are okay." He leaned over and hugged me, and I started to cry. He looks at me and sees the tears and quickly lets go. "Did I hurt you, I am so sorry."

"No, you didn't hurt me, I just, um, I was just wondering if Brooke ever stopped by." I hope that she did, I really need her right now.

"Ya, she did, she was here for three days straight, and came by yesterday and today, but I told her to go home and get some sleep." Three days? Huh?

"What do you mean she was here for three days, I was only asleep for a couple of hours!"

"Haley, you were in a coma. You have been for the past five days. They weren't sure when you were going to wake-up, or if you would. The first few days Brooke and me were here all the time, never leaving once, but for yesterday and today we started to take shifts, because we needed to shower and sleep." That was so sweet of them to come her and stay for so long.

"Can you call Brooke and tell her to come her please."

"Sure."

While Nathan left to call Brooke, the doctor came in and checked on everything and said that I could go home tomorrow. He told me that I had a minor concussion and that I was smart for wearing my seatbelt for if I hadn't then I might not be here now. I thanked him for everything and waited for Brooke to come.

"Haley, I am so glad that you are okay." Brooke came into my room with her arms open and her face was stained with tears. She hugged me and we both started to cry. "I am so sorry for everything Haley, I really am. I didn't mean anything that I said, I was just worried. It really scared me when you showed me you arms, and I just didn't want to accept the truth, so I got jealous instead. I am so sorry. I love you so much and if you still want me too, I would really like to help. I just want you to be happy again."

"I forgive you Brooke, I just really need you to be there and not freak out anymore, okay?"

"Ya, I am so sorry."

"I know Tigger, I know." To the nurse that kept checking on me, we must have looked like psychos, Brooke hugging me and whispering sorry over and over, while I cried and told her I needed her. But it didn't matter, it didn't matter that my head was throbbing, it didn't matter that Brooke was ruining her make up and it didn't matter that my parents were now standing in the door way of my room, just looking gat me. Because I had my beast friend back, and for now, I was completely happy.
