Chapter 6
I do not own the series 1800-Where-Are-You and the characters Jess Wilkins, Rob Wilkins and Mr Goodhart they are entirely the work of Meg Cabot.
I woke up two hours later in a really bright white room. My stomach felt like someone had just dropped a ten-ton cement block on it. I groaned in pain.
I heard someone murmur, "Scar?"
I groaned, "Mum?"
"Oh Scarlett, you had us worried sick." My Mother exclaimed.
My Mum immediately rushed up to me and just about hugged me to death. When she moved back my Father quickly replaced her.
I asked my parents, "Where am I?"
"You're in Hooserville State Hospital sweetie. After you went inside the house Josh followed you and waited just outside for you. He heard screaming and called both the police and us before he entered the house. When he ran upstairs he realised that it was Isabella screaming and saw those boys punching you. He was the one who dragged them off you. We are so happy you are okay but you should have come to your Father and I before you did anything." My Mother sobbed.
It took a minute for what my Mother told me to sink in. When it did I blurted,
"Where are Belle and Eric? Are they alright?"
"They're fine sweetie. They both suffered from cuts, bruises and a few broken bones. When you arrived in the ambulance you were in a worse condition then the both of them. You had bruising and cuts to your head, stomach and arms and you also had internal bleeding when you arrived, but the doctors fixed that." My Father explained.
When my parents had finished explaining what had happened Belle, with her arm in a cast, and Josh walked through the door. When they saw that I was awake they both rushed over and hugged me.
"Jeez," I joked, "what's up with people and hugging today?"
Everyone laughed.
"Scar, I want to say how thankful I am for you saving me. Even though you got hurt in the process." Belle told me with tears in her eyes.
"Hey, what are big sisters for?" I responded drawing her into a hug. Everyone laughed again while we formed a group hug.
As everyone pulled back from the hug a young couple, in their late 20s, I had never seen before walked into my room.
Nervously, they asked, "Scarlett Wilkins?"
"That's me." I chirped.
"Hello, my name is Katerina Lewis and this is my husband, Damien Lewis. We are Eric's parents and we would like to thank you for rescuing our son. We can see what it cost you. We just want you to know that we appreciate what you did." the woman, Katerina, said.
"It's okay. I knew the people who kidnapped your son and my sister and lets just say that they're jerks." I told the couple.
Everyone laughed.
I turned to my parents and asked, "What happened to them anyway?"
"The police arrived at the house just before your Mother and I did and arrested all four of the boys for abduction and were immediately taken into custody." My Father informed me.
"Well we definitely learned something today." My Mother said.
"What's that?" I asked.
"We now know that the phrase 'Mother like Daughter' is true in more than one way." My Mother replied.
It has been two weeks since I was released from hospital and I know my life will never be the same again.
So that was my statement. I am really bored now so I'm gonna just go. I hope it answers all of your questions.
