A few hours later
Natalie walked into the room
"How are you feeling Hailey?" Natalie asked
"Better." Hailey said
"Okay. Well you can go home. I'll get someone to bring the discharge paper. I would suggest you talk to someone. It's better to talk about it then keeping it inside." Natalie said
Hailey nodded but had no intention of doing so.
"Thanks Natalie." Hailey said
"You're welcome." Natalie said, before leaving.
"Okay, do you want to stay at my place or i can see if you could stay with Vanessa if you feel more comfortable with her." Hailey said
"I think i might stay with Vanessa." Hailey said
"Sure." Jay said, rubbing Hailey's knuckle with her thumb.
A few minutes later
She signed the discharge paper, then left with Jay. Jay had already called Vanessa to see if it was okay for Hailey to stay with her for a while, and she said yes.
"Jay, can we stop at my place to grab a few things first?" Hailey asked
"Yeah, you could make a list and i'll get them for you if you don't want to go in there." Jay suggested.
"Thank you." Hailey said
"No problem." Jay said
30 minutes later
They drove to Vanessa's house in a comfortable silence, both lost in thought.
Hailey had her head back and her eyes closed thinking about how she should tell Jay what happened last night. She knew that Jay had a pretty good idea of what happened last night. Hailey knew that Jay wouldn't relax until he knew for sure what happened. Hailey needed to find out exactly how to tell him. Hailey was worried about how Jay would react.
Jay on the other hand had his eyes on the road, but his mind was in a whole different place. He couldn't stop wondering what happened last night. Jay didn't know what to think anymore. He just didn't want to believe that something like that had happened to Hailey. Jay couldn't bear to think different, he couldn't. She would kill James with his bare hands.
10 minutes later
They finally made to Vanessa's house.
"Hals, we're here." Jay said softly, taking off her seat belt.
Hailey slowly opened her eyes.
Hailey unbuckled her seat belt.
Jay then went to the truck to get Hailey stuff.
They walked up to Vanessa's front door and knocked on the door. A few seconds later Vanessa opened the door.
"Hey, how are you doing Hailey?" Vanessa asked
"Im okay." Hailey said
"I should really get going. Hank wants me back at the station." Jay said
Jay hugged Hailey, giving her a kissed on her forehead.
"If you need anything, call me, okay." Jay said.
He felt Hailey nod against his shoulder before letting go.
"Alright, i'll call tomorrow. Bye!" Jay said.
"Bye." Hailey and Vanessa said as they watched him pull out of the driveway and leave.
"Okay, we have a lot to talk about." Vanessa said with a smile as she guided Hailey to the couch.
