Ashley sat in the waiting room. She had called Vanessa and left a message letting them know where she was, in case they called before or after the movie. She was waited for a good hour and a half before came to tell her how the girl was.

"Are you the one who called in about a girl in your neighborhood?"

"Yes and how is she?"

"She's going to be just fine. You can see her if you want. Follow me." Ashley got up and followed the doctor to the recovery area and then to room 234. The doctor left when Ashley walked in.

"Are you one of the nurses because I could really use some more food?" The girl asked

"No, I was the one who called about you."

"Oh yeah, the pretty blonde. You look really familiar."

"I'm an actress. Have you seen High School Musical?"

"Oh yeah, you played Sharpay."

"Yeah so, what's your name?"

"Brianna, Brianna Smith."

"Are you from around here?"

"No, I ran away from home back east."

"How far east?"

"Maryland."

"That's' on the other side of the freaking country! Are you out of your mind?"

"No but apparently you are."

"How old are you?"

"15."

"How did you get here anyway?"

"I took some money from my parents and bought a ticket."

"You're crazy! Why would you run away?"

"Because my family is f up! I couldn't take it anymore! I had to leave. Get away from…" She grabbed her stomach and yelled in pain. A doctor rushed in to make sure everything was alright.

"Are you okay? What happened?"

"Nothing, I just got a sharp pain in my stomach." Brianna said.

"Okay, be careful. You could easily rip your stitches." And with that, the doctor left.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you. Do you have a place to stay?" Ashley asked

"No."

"Well, you can stay with me until we figure something out."

"Really, thank you. I can leave tomorrow morning. Can you pick me up?"

"I have rehearsals tomorrow. Can I take you home tonight? That way you don't have to spend your first night in the hospital."

"I don't know ask." Ashley left to find the doctor who was taking care of Brianna. She found him in the waiting area talking to the receptionist.

"Excuse me, can I have a minuet?"
"Yeah, is there something wrong?"

"Sort of. The girl who came in tonight, Brianna. When is she allowed to leave?"

"Tomorrow morning; is that a problem?"

"Well yeah; I have something really important that I have to do and I won't be able to take her home until about this time tomorrow night. So, I was wondering if I could take her home tonight instead."

"Sure, just make sure that she is careful and takes it easy until she gets her stitches taken out in about three weeks."

"Okay, thank you very much." Ashley rushed back to Brianna's room.

"Hey kid, you can leave. Gather up your stuff and get dressed. I'll be in the waiting area." Ashley was about to leave.

"Wait! Thanks; you're a really nice person." Ashley smiled and left.


"Oh my god, how long does it take her to change?" Ashley mumbled to herself. Just then, Zac, Vanessa, Monique, Lucas and Corbin ran in to the hospital and to the front desk

"Is there an Ashley Tisdale here? She's about my height, blonde hair…" Vanessa asked.

"Hey guys, I'm over here."

"Ashley, why are you here? Are you okay?" Zac asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine. A girl was really hurt outside of my house and I'm here to make sure she's okay. She'll be staying with me for a while."

"Why?"

"She doesn't have anywhere else to go." Brianna then walked out with her bag and jacket.

"Oh, there she is. Don't scare her. Brianna, you ready to go?"

"Yeah, umm who are all these people?"

"This is Zac, Vanessa, Lucas, Monique and Corbin; they're also in High School Musical.

"Oh cool, well nice meeting you guys. She walked out of the hospital with Ashley close behind. They got in her car and headed to Ashley's house.

"I don't have to look after you do I?" Ashley asked

"No, I'm 15 not 5. I can handle myself. Do you think I can go to your rehearsal tomorrow?"

"Umm, yeah, that would be fine." They came to a stop in Ashley's driveway. Brianna got out and stared at the spot where she was almost stabbed.

"I could have died." She whispered before going into the house.
