Chapter 16

"Whats that?" Mrs. Fitzpatrick asks.

The nurse is moving machinery into place, more wire, more tubes.

"Rhythm disturbance!" says the nurse.

"oh God!" Trevor says.

"I'm sorry, would you two mind stepping out for a moment.

Trevor sees them put two paddles on Maddie's chest. Maddie twitches violently. Then the curtain swishes around Maddie's bed and Trevor can't see her any longer.

Mrs. Fitzpatrick runs to her husband.

"Dave!"

"What happened Anna?"

"Her heart went haywire. VF they said."

"Oh my God!" Dave says. "How long ago?"

"5 minutes? Maybe less."

"Oh god."

Trevor decides to call Lance. After all he is one of Maddie's friend.

"Lance?"

"yeah. Whos this?"

"This is Trevor."

"hey man! did you and Maddie make up or what?"

"Can you come down to St. Lukes ICU?"

"What's wrong?"

"Maddie's took an overdose. I found her in time but now she's had a heart attack."

"What! I'll be there as soon as I can!"

Lance arrives soon. Mrs. Fitzpatrick is hunched in the chair with her eyes closed. She looks like she's praying.

Mr. Fitzpatrick is standing next to Maddie's room window (on the outside).

Trevor is standing against a wall.

Liam is sitting next to his mother, sitting quietly.

Lance join Trevor by the wall and thank Trevor for calling him

Lance lean against the wall and Trevor tells him the story, shows him Trevor's letter, Maddie's diary, and gives Lance his letter from Maddie.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear Lance,

When you read this, I may be gone. I just wanted to thank you for always being there for me. You are a true friend. I'm sorry for any thing I have ever done to hurt you. I just wanted to let you know all of this. Thank you for being my friend.

Your friend, Maddie

As Lance finishes reading his letter, a doctor comes out from Maddie's room.

Trevor jumps up and asks the doctor "is she okay?"

"She is stabilized again. Maddie's okay."

"thank you."
