What a Drag
Chapter 20
CONDIDITIONS:
Sharpay bruised cheek and three broken ribs.
Zeke wasn't injured at all. Just a glass got stuck in his shoulder.
Ryan has a broken nose and jaw. He has sprained his right ankle he's ok.
Chad went into shock because of the driving stick. When the car made an impact on us it caused Chad to fall onto…well actually forced onto the driving stick. It hit his appendix which started bleeding. He lost a lot of blood, but thankfully they had his type in the blood bank. It was just an organ rupture. He removed the appendix. He stopped breathing for a couple minutes on the table. It took at least eleven minutes to get a pulse. The surgery was a day ago. He should've woken up. But he didn't, he's in a coma.
Gabriella can't drink regularly because a small piece of glass got in her throat after. Her throats fine just won't be able to talk for a while. She has a broken leg and about eight stitches on her forehead, nothing too traumatizing. And three broken ribs,
Chapter 20
I sat in the living room of my house. It's been nearly three weeks since the accident. Sharpay and I sat in the court room proudly watching the judge give the two teenagers three years in jail and also having AA meetings. Three years because of under age drinking and their alcohol levels were way up. Sharpay was doing fine with her healing which was good. Her ribs were doing fine and the bruise on her cheek went away. She just has some small bruising around her ribs. Zeke's shoulder was fine. He was back to normal and Ryan could now talk again, but his jaw still hurt like hell and the bruising went down. His ankle is good he just limps a lot. His nose is still in its cast for two more weeks' ha-ha. Me, I'm fine. I can talk like I did before the glass, but it was swore time to time. I got my stitches out and it shouldn't scar, but it would be cool. My ribs are fine just small bruising just like Sharpay. My leg. It's pink and signed in dark pink sharpies. Chad… well Chad is still in a coma, but his brain activity is better it's just Taylor; she must've lost ten pounds. She won't eat at all even when we ask her too. Zeke and Troy snuck up behind her and injected something into her. Ask me not because I don't know what they did. But she did sleep for two days and ate before she went to Chad's room. Catherine now had one and a half teeth. One in the back and half in the front. She was a good girl about it. She would regularly bite on anyone's finger. Bailey was holding her and before you knew it Bailey was yelling Ow. We all went ahead, well Troy did actually. Troy went ahead and waited in line and got us all the Harry Potter books. We decided we wouldn't read them until Chad woke up. It was a pact that we made. Once we got them we would read it together.
I couldn't tell you how much of help Troy has been. I would break down every night in my room and he would be right there to help me. Taylor spent most of her time in the hospital and we kept her and Chad's room door closed. Zeke helped around the house and Sharpay helped too, but not as much as Zeke. Troy would clean the house because it somehow got messy with baby food being thrown, no one's fault. Catherine just has mommy's temper.
Troy would go to work then come back here and take Catherine for me so I could sleep. I know you're probably thinking we're back together, but Sharpay would often corner me when I was up and on my crutches. She would lecture me on what he did in the past two relationships we had, but I just couldn't help, but melt over him. "Hey Catherine's down." Troy whispered to me as he sat down next to me.
I looked at him and smiled. It was one in the morning I think. She had woken up again. Her teeth were bothering her. "She's ok?" I asked looking at the fireplace in front of me.
"Yeah, just doesn't like the teeth." He said giving a small laugh.
The room fell silent for awhile. I could tell Sharpay and Zeke were by the banter listening in. Ryan was at Kelsi's. We think he's actually moving in their, but hopefully they…wait no we don't want to hear the bang, bang, bang. "We are we?" I asked suddenly looking at him. Troy gave me a confused look.
"At your house." He said unsure.
"No, no, I mean like where are we in this relationship?" I asked him. His mouth formed into an O. he looked down at the coffee table. Right now I know he wishing for his beeper to beep, but I needed to know. I heard a gasp from upstairs, but I ignored it.
"I-I don't know. I mean I still love you, but I cheated on you twice and I know that means big to you. So where ever you want me to stand I'll be there." it didn't sound like a rehearsed speech.
"Why did you drink and cheat the night before I went into surgery?" I asked him tracing Sharpay's name in my pink cast.
Troy let out a sigh and looked around. "I thought that Catherine wouldn't make it. I just thought that if she…if she died that you wouldn't want to be together so I went ahead and made that decision easier for you." He said all at once.
"Wait, Troy she had chances of living and you think I only said yes because of Catherine?" I asked I could feel my blood started to boil, but we're adults we have to do this in a civil manor…or I could just burn his stinking penis off…wait I have to stop hanging out with Sharpay.
"Yes, look I never meant to hurt you. I cheated on you with Callie because I saw you and that guy from the maternity ward were going out. You guys kissed." He said looking at me.
"Ha-ha." I started laughing remembering that guy.
"This isn't really funny." Troy said smiling a little.
"Troy that guy has a wife. You see their doctor said that they couldn't pregnant, but they did. With triplets. They were all born safely and he was happy and he kissed me. It was just a happy kiss." I said remembering that day so clearly because Zeke had gotten mad at Sharpay since she walked into the bathroom while he was…peeing.
"I should've come to you first, huh?" he asked looking down at his hands ashamed. I smiled at him. Just like a child.
"Yeah, you should've and that second girl?"
"I needed someone to take my pain away." He said.
You do know if I give you a another chance, your going to have to do everything right." I said looking into his eyes. He looked at me in shock. "Catherine needs a dad. And she needs only one pale to live at not going back and forth."
"I promise you, I'll check in every minute I'm not with you. Even before surgeries. I'll go to AA meetings. And do you think they have sex meetings, like help you get off of them? And you can have Sharpay follow me everywhere I go. I'll take her into surgeries so she makes sure I don't flirt or look at butts or boobs except yours..." Troy went on talking and I looked at the stairs where Sharpay smiled.
"Troy I don't think there sex meetings." I said smiling. Just then my cell phone rang and I picked it up off the coffee table. Taylor.
"Hello?" I asked. My heart was skipping beats.
"He's awake. He just woke up. The doctors are doing tests on him now."
"We'll be right down." I said and closed my cell phone. I took my crutches from beside me and stood up.
"Someone grab Catherine. Chad's awake!" I yelled limping and walking to the door.
"Gabriella you're wearing short shorts and a tank top." Troy said standing up.
"Grab me one of Troy's t-shirts from the guest room!" I yelled back up.
"Heh, I say we're back to semi normal." Troy said taking Catherine from Zeke's arms.
"Ok, I got her bags, too." Zeke said looking down at all three bags.
"HERE!" Sharpay said throwing me the t-shirt. We ran, well I walked out to Troy's van that he had gotten just today's ago. Yeah it surprised me too.
We didn't even bother checking in at the nurse station. We knew his room number by heart. "Are they done yet?" Zeke asked.
"No, he just woke up. They rushed me out. I don't know if he's ok." Taylor said as she stood up from her seat.
"Where are Ryan and Kelsi?" Troy asked.
"Right here." Kelsi said with a hand on Ryan's shoulder.
"How is he?" Ryan asked.
"We don't know." I said. I looked over at Catherine in Troy's arms. She was sleeping and clutching his gray shirt in her small fists.
The door opened and out came Chad's doctor…I think. "Hi I'm doctor Weiner." He said smiling at us. I looked at Sharpay and we scoffed.
"Now we examined Chad and we should have the results back in a while. In the mean while you can go in." he said excusing himself.
"Dr. Weiner." I said bursting out laughing.
"Oh jeez, almost like the Simpson's movie." Taylor said cracking a smile.
We all piled into Chad's room standing around his bed. He was sitting up and looking around. "Hey, we're happy to see you awake bud." Zeke said.
"Yeah, now we can finally start reading the seventh Harry Potter book." I said getting teary as were the other girls.
"Agh…ooo." We all looked at an awoken Catherine. I set my crutches down and took her from Troy's arms. Putting little pressure on my leg I walked over to Chad. "She missed her uncle very much." I said handing her to Chad. I straightened back up and Chad looked at her confused.
Then he looked back as Catherine squirmed in his lap. "Who are you guys?" he asked.
"WHAT?!" we all said at the same time.
