7. Long Night.
Raven and Eddie got to Chelsea's home and the door was quite opened so they could easily get in. They ran upstairs and found Jennifer Daniels, Mr. Daniels, a doctor and Chelsea on the floor.
Eddie wasn't brave enough to believe what his eyes were seeing. The image of Chelsea on the floor bleeding and completely unconscious was too much for him but he couldn't stop looking at her, he wasn't paying attention to what people were saying or who was in the room, it felt strange, his life was frozen.
For Raven, this wasn't just the end of a friendship; this was the end of the world. Her best friend? That couldn't be her best friend. "This got to be a vision, one of those that never, never come true" she though to calm herself down, but she knew really well it was not a simple vision, it was the real life. She turned around and hugged Eddie, not wanting to see what she was looking at seconds ago.
"What are you doing here?" asked Mr. Daniels in concern, "Did she tell you she was going to do this?"
"No Mr. Daniels, I had a vision where….I had a dream…I …I'm sorry (Raven took a deep breath) I called her and she didn't pick up so I came coz I had the feeling something bad was happening with her".
"Should I believe you?" Mrs. Daniels asked.
"How would I lie to you?" Raven said in a depressive tone.
"Why god had to take her and not me?" Eddie said.
"She is not dead!" the doctor said and both friends looked at each other in relief
"She just had a convulsion. Does this girl have convulsions all the time?"
"No, its the first time it happens."
"Does she take any medication?"
"No"
"Do you have any idea how long it lasted?"
"No"
"She faint and her head made contact with the floor. When the brain suffers damages like that, it answers with a convulsion. Or maybe she took advantage of a medicine that was expired".
"What is a convulsion?"
"It's another word for epileptic attack".
"Is she going to be ok?"
"Yes, but now she has to take a special medication for several years. Also, she will have lots of limitations. She can't inherit alcohol, watch tv really close or be on the computer for hours, she has to take her medication every 12 hours. She'll be sleepy and ditzy sometimes, she can't fall down and knock her head again or she will have another attack. You gotta take good care of her".
"She is sleeping. It's what they do after an epilleptic attack. She is just too tired"
The doctor writes down a recipe and gives it to the parents.
"Someone has to take care of her tonight. See if she has another attack and count the time it lasts. If it happens again, dont move her but be careful, don't let her fall again. I'm going to go now, I'll come tomorrow to see how she has been reacting to the dose"
"Thank you Dr. Reed. Let me lead you to the door".
Mr. Daniels and the doctor come out and the room fills up with silence.
"I'm sorry Mrs. Daniels, I know what you are thinking. I can swear to you I didn't know, Chelsea didn't tell me, I mean, how was she suppose to tell me?"
"I know Raven and I'm really sorry".
"I understand!".
They both hug.
" My dad is downstairs, I just heard him. I better go".
"Bye!"
"Bye, please call me when she wakes up".
"I will".
Raven leaves the room.
Eddie is on the floor not taking his eyes of Chelsea. Mrs. Jennifer puts her hand on his shoulder.
"I don't want to go home".
"I know, but you better go. You have school in 3 hours!"
"I'm not going. I wanna take care of her!"
"Listen, your parents are going to worry if they don't find you there"
"I won't move from this house"
"Oh, Edward. You are such a good friend!...You really loves her, don't you?"
"Of course Mrs. Daniels, she is my best friend."
"Well, I'm going to make us some coffee then. I'll be downstairs. She is out of danger, can you please?...".
"Sure".
Jennifer goes downstairs while Eddie takes Chelsea in his arms and places her on the bed. He takes her shoes off, her jacket and covers her up with a blanket. He sits on the floor besides her bed and falls sleep.
When Jennifer goes upstairs to give Eddie a cup of coffee she finds Eddie asleep. She smiles, turns the light off and closes the door.
4 Hours later Chelsea wakes up and finds his best friend besides her bed, sleeping. She frowns wondering what he is doing there. She tries to sit on her bed but the pain on her head doesn't let her, so she extends her hand and touches his head to wake him up.
"What are you doing here? And why does my head hurt as hell?"
"Don't talk so loud, your parents just fell asleep. You knocked your head and had a convulsion".
She closes her eyes and tears come out.
"Shhh!... Don't cry. Calm down, you are going to be fine. I'm here to take care of you!".
"I want to sleep!"
"Then sleep. I think I better call your mom now, I just remembered she wanted me to tell her if you woke up".
"Ok, hurry up. I don't feel good, I don't wanna be alone!" She said between sobs.
"You won't be alone, just give me 5 seconds!" He kisses her forehead.
"Ok!"
Eddie runs to Mrs. Jennifer's room and knocks the door. She comes out and runs to Chelsea's room with Eddie. But when they get there, Chelsea is sleeping again.
"She doesn't remember anything. She asked me what had happened and said her head hurts and that she wanted to sleep".
"Oh, my poor little girl!" She starts to play with her hair. "Isn't she beautiful?"
"Yes, she is gorgeous."
Jennifer smiles.
