Dash ran out of the hospital room. To others he looked as if he were only pretending to feel sorry becasue he wanted to fit in there in the row of people on the room. But they didn't know he really was sad to see somebody get hurt.
Sam stood up. This time she was going to get in the hospital room before anybody else. Without having to sneek in. HA! Although, she was proud of sneaking in herself.
The nurse humbly walked into the waiting room and looked around for faces she hadn't seen in Danny's room. Sam walked up slowly to the nurse and said, "Can I go now"
The nurse remembered Sam, "You've had a turn, remember, I told you to wait untill later." She smiled, she was trying to be friendly also.
"What? I'm sorry." Sam tried. But she slumped back into her chair.
"You can go again when everybody else is finished, Ms. Manson"
"What ever!" Sam said. "Just hurry everybody up"
"Mood swing." Tucker poked Sam in the wrist.
"Shut Up!" Sam hit Tucker across the arm.
"Paulina. Paulina Sanchez"
Sam shifted in her seat again. "I can't take this Tucker! I've got to get in there"
"What are you going to do about it, Sam?" Tucker said. Talk about mood swings.
"Well, I'm sneaking in again." Sam said as she walked towards Danny's room becoming unnoticed by the guests and the nurse.
She looked at Danny on the bed and then heard noise of another visitor. She ducked behind the couch in Danny's hospital room.
Paulia looked around. As if looking for any other Pualina in the hospital waiting room. "Me?" She said, pointing to her chest.
"Are you Paulina Sanchez"
Paulia nodded.
"Then that's you! Right this way." She put her hand around Paulina's shoulder.
Paulina shifted not wanting the nurse to touch her. But she didn't say anything.
Paulina opened the door for herself. "I'd like to be alone." She said.
"I'd imagine so." The nurse said. "I'll tell you when your time is up"
Time is up? Paulina thought, what is this? A game show?
Paulina's POV:
Okay, the hospital room needs a complete makeover. The walls being blue and green. The covers being white? Wow, this place really needs help. Everything is wrong in here. Especially the fact Danny was laying unconsious in the hospital bed made me shiver.
Dash said Danny was moaning! Moaning. Hmm...dreaming? That's what the nurse said after Mr. Lancer's private visit.
There was a cough in the corner.
"Who's there?" I asked afarid, picking up a card at the end of Danny's table.
No reply. Sam ducked lower behind the couch.
"Stop being silly." i told myself aloud. "Your imaging things, your getting creeped out"
Now what, I thought. What was I souposed to say. It was just like talking to yourself. No one was listening. Unles Danny could hear.
If he could, I thought, Oh well. He deserves to know people care about him. Even if he is a loser. I mean, nobody deserves to be pushed off a building.
But I would like you all to note, me, Paulina Sanchez, feeling sorry for Danny' does not mean I have any feelings for him.
I reach my hand to touvh Danny's hair.
Gross, It's soaking wet!
"Poor thing!" I say. "The nurse said you were having some bad dreams. But sweating? I'm so sorry." I sigh, "But that doesn't mean I like you"
It doesn't, I tell myself. It doesn't! It doesn't! It doesn't! It doesn't!
I pick up a towel hanging from the sink beside the mirrior by Danny's bed. I slowly wipe his head clean of old sweat. "Please stop sweating, Danny. Your making me wonder even more what really happened"
What I do remember is that our class had seen a ghost. We went into lockdown for 30 minutes. When the time pasted, we thought we were being dillisounal. Danny excused himslef from class, after seeing his breath. Why is he always cold?
Anyways, we went on with class. Nothing ever happened. It was like things just disapeared...out of thin air.
I thought I heard a loud crash.
Imediatly, I thought of Inviso-bil. Why had he not saved Danny before he hit the ground?
Wasn't he there?
Wait! I remember now! I did see Inviso-bil! He fell off a building too! It was right by the school. I was the only person who saw it at lunch. The same exact building Danny fell off. Then a flash of bright blue light. And screaming. I thought I was imaginging it.
So I put two and two together and I figured it out.
Inviso-bil was there to save Danny. Both Danny and him fell off the same building at the same time. Thast's why Danny wasn't saved. Inviso-bil was knocked unconsious.
It suprises me how clever I can be.
I stare at Danny's unconsious body. "Your not all that bad, Danny. I sort of like you, as a kid. I mean, your nice. But don't tell anybody this." I laugh. "Really." I stoke his hair again. He's sweating again. I feel sorry for him. "I'm sorry you got hurt, Danny. Truely sorry"
I smile.
Then frown. What am I doing?
It's Danny Fenton, I told myself. I hit my head.
But he's not al that bad.I smile to myself.
Another cough.
This time, I know I'm not imagining it. "Who's there? COME OUT HERE!" I picked up a card off Dann'ys end table. "I've got a cad and I'm not afarid to use it"
A shadow came up from the back of the sofa. I scremed, short and quick.
"Shut Up!"
It's that stupid goth, Samantha Manson.
She likes Danny, I just know it!
"What are you doing here?" I say, settin gdown the card from Kwan. Kwan? What?
"I haven't got a turn, Paulina. So I snuck in, OKAY. You have to swear not to tell anybody about me being in here." She said waving her arms.
"Why would I do something for you, Goth?" I said. Harsh, harsh.
I see Sam smiling.
I shouldn't have asked that. Stupid, Stupid. I hit my forehead. Ahh! I forgot, stop messing up the hair!
"Well, I heard and saw everything you did." Sam says then she starts mocking me. "Poor thing! Your not all that bad, Danny"
"Stop it, OKAY I promise. Under one condition"
"And what might that be?" Sam voice trailed.
"You can't tell everybody what I said"
Sam looked at Danny. Her voice turned sad, "Deal"
We stared at Danny.
He starts moaning again.
"Poor thing." Sam says. She's trying to start a conversation. HA! How stupid.
"Yup." I rolled my eyes.
"What do you think he's dreaming about"
"The nurse said it was a nightmare." I'm finding myself listening.
"For sure"
"She said you saw what happened. What was it?" I jump down her throat. She'd better tell me.
Sam seemed to shift slowly. "He was on the roof of the builing to look at the view and a ghost came up behind"
"A GHOST!"
"What"
"You said 'a ghost'!
"I did?"
I give her a look, "So a ghost pushed him"
She sighed, "Yes"
"And he fell"
"Exactly"
Sam sighed.
"Oh"
Danny started coughing. Then he tossed in his sleep. I felt sorry for him. Sam knew this. My life was over! nOT TO MENTION MY SOCIAL LIFE!
Sam rushed over to his bed side. She was suprosed to see me on the other side. What? You already know I'm worried about him, get over it Goth!
She looked at me then puts her hand on his forehead. "Danny? You alright in there"
I hold my breath, please be okay.
"NOOOOOO!" Danny chocked.
"What is he dreaming about?" I stop my foot. "This is annoying me"
"Him bein gpushed I guess..." Sam says, then backs away. She covers her mouth.
"What"
Sam looked relived. She knew I had no idea what she was talking about, "Nothing, nothing." She repled.
Light filled the room.
"Hide!" I yell to Sam. Why am I being nice to her?
Sam jumps behing the couch again.
The nurse walked in a hurry.
"Bad dreams again?" She asked watching Danny move.
"Yea, I guess." I say, trying to hide my concerrn.
The nurse looks at me. "Your turn is up, honny, I'm terribly sorry"
"Okay, Hold on a second. I'll meet you there in a second"
The nurse looks at me suspically. She steps out the door.
"Umm, Danny?" I said forgetting Sam even was in the room.
He doesn't answer.
Obvious.
"Stay safe. Your a cool kid." I rub his arm. Then kiss him on the check. "That didn't mean anything, Bud." I say.
I smile.
Then leave the room.
Sam's POV:
What did she just do? Oh no she didn't! I'm gonna kill that-
The door opned again.
I jump down again behind the sofa/chouch...whatever.
Another person's visit...
