Chapter 18
"Johnny! Wake up!" I said shaking him again. He started breathing and his eyes flickered open weakly. " Oh Johnny…" he looked so beat up. A bruise started to form around his eye and he had cuts all over his face.
"Evelin…" he said then trailed off.
"I've got to go get help! Stay here Oreo, and if he wakes up, kill him." She looked at me like I was crazy. "No not Johnny, his dad." I said sprinting out of the house. I'm a really fast runner so I got there pretty fast. I ran through the door.
"Johnny…his dad…beat up." I said out of breath.
"What?" Darry asked. He, Soda and Pony stood up. Wow, for the first time like ever, that I've seen, only the Curtis' were actually in the Curtis house.
"Please don't make me say it again." I begged.
"That's okay Darry, I understood her. C'mon we have to get to Johnny's!" HE said as we got in the car and sped down the road. We finally got there. We ran upstairs. His dad was still out.
"What happened here?" Darry asked me.
"Not now! We have to get him to the hospital!" I exclaimed. Darry picked him up and we, once again, sped to the hospital. Once Johnny was in the Emergency room, and we were waiting, only one thought entered my mind, this is al l my fault. If I wouldn't have ran out when I found out my mom was dead, Johnny wouldn't have followed me, and if Johnny wouldn't have followed me and we wouldn't have ended up at Johnny's house, and if well, you know …we would have been aware and both of us would have made it out of that window. I put my legs on my chair and hugged them.
"Great. First my mom and know Johnny." I said. Soda put his arm around me.
"Johnny's not going to die. He's been beat up worse than this." He said.
"Yeah, but this is my fault." I said.
"Whatever happened, I'm sure it wasn't your fault." Soda comforted.
"Thanks for trying Soda but-" we were interrupted by the doctor.
"How's Johnny?" I asked.
"I'm sorry, but I can't give that information out only to a parent or guardian." He said.
"HIS PARENTS ARE THE ONES WHO DID THIS TO HIM ASSFACE!"
"I'm sorry." He said.
"What the hell is up with hospitals! We're the ones who care about Johnny! You don't even know Johnny! You don't have any right to say that I can't see him we love him!"
"We?" Soda asked me.
"Shut up Soda!" I yelled.
"Okay." Soda put his hands up in defeat.
"So you know what? Either you let me in there or I'll sue you for every penny your worth…and that can't be a lot!" I know I probably sounded stupid, but who gibes a shit!
"You sue me? Yeah right…"
"Try me. I know all this legal stuff! I want to be a lawyer!"
"You do?" Soda asked.
"Shut up Soda!"
"Okay." He said doing the same this as before.
"So it's not really your place to tell us that we can't see him because he's our responsibility and-" Darry walked to us.
"What's going on here?" he asked. "How's Johnny?"
"Well, I was just going to look for you to tell you, but she kinda stopped me."
"So you were going to tell us?" I asked.
"Yeah, I was."
"Oh…Opps." I said so embarrassed.
"Mr. Curtis, you may go see Johnny, he's fine." The doctor said and left.
"You go in Ev." Darry said. I turned to Soda.
"This never gets mentioned to anyone ever again."
"Yes ma'am!" he said.
"Are you scared of her?" Darry asked Soda.
"Yeah, a little."
"Me too Soda, me too." I rolled my eyes. I'll just sue him? I'm so tired. I walked in the room. Johnny's eyes were closed. I just walked over to the bed. You know me, I tripped over my own flip flop. Johnny's eyes opened, then he smiled and sat up. I ran over to hug him.
"Oh Johnny, this is all my fault." I said burring my head in his chest.
"What? There's no way this is your fault." Johnny said. "It's my dad. He always does this, you know that." I looked at him and kissed him. I looked at him and smiled.
"Love the gown Johnny. You look awesome."
"I know I do."
