Here's the other chapter as usual I love the comments.
As Spencer woke the next morning something felt different. She didn't smell freshly made tea or breakfast the air smelled like cleaning products mixed with sickness. She didn't hear the steady heart beat of the man she'd grown so fond of instead she a loud beep every few seconds and a steady low buzzing. She didn't feel soft luxurious sheets around her body she felt paper and hard cotton sheets. She moved her wrists and one of them couldn't move. Weird.
She opened her eyes not to see an oak bed frame or a sunlit room with beautiful paintings on the wall but a bright light that was flickering a little and machines all around her.
"Hey sleepy head," She heard a familiar musical voice say as a soft hand touched her head. "Damn you were out for while." Spencer looked over at her.
"Holy shit Jenna," She said looking at the blonde.
"You bet your sweet ass it's me,"
"Where have you been?" She groaned sitting up. "And come to think of it where the hell am I?"
"Oh around,"
"Why didn't you call any of us after you disappeared?"
"I couldn't then you'd find out where I was,"
"So you ran away do you know how shitty I felt? I thought you were dead."
"I'm sorry but I had to get away from everything you know how my mom about the whole emancipation thing and you know how shitty things were between me-"
Just then a woman and a man with a camera came bursting through the door.
"My dear viewers I am happy to say the rumors are true Spencer Montgomery the missing teen who has captured all of our hearts over the past few months has been found. I am told by the doctors that she was in the bus accident in September that left several injured but none dead. The doctors couldn't find out the identity of the young woman who had bruising and swelling all on her face making Miss. Montgomery unrecognizable." The news woman's words became quieter as realized where she was, Spencer was so confused by everything. She snapped back into reality when Jenna jumped up.
"No you can't talk to her and who gave you permission to barge in here? My husband's a very successful lawyer and I swear to god if this shows up on the news I'm going to sew your asses off. Now get the hell out of here."
The reporter and her camera man left quickly and Jenna sat down.
"Damn Jen," Spencer said.
"Well I grew up a lot with in this last year."
"What happened to you anyways are you really married to a lawyer?"
"No just engaged kinda,"
"So tell me what happened to you?"
"Well when you left the dance while Jake and I were fighting. I went outside to call someone to pick me up when I couldn't get a hold of anyone I started walking. He followed me and we started screaming at each other. I told him it was over and he grabbed me and started to strangle me. When I woke up a man was standing over me and he helped me up and took me to a doctor. He stayed by my side the whole time I told him I had nowhere to go and he let me come and live with him. Then we fell in love and last month he proposed."
"So why didn't you call anyone?"
"Well I was emancipated and I knew Jake would've come after me if he'd know I was still alive but when I saw that you were missing on the news I came over here to find you because I know you did the same thing for me."
"Damn right I did." She said as tears of joy ran down her face. Jenna leaned over and hugged Spencer.
"I missed you so much you dumbass skank," Her friend joked.
"I missed you too you stupid twat," Spencer joked with her even though she was really confused. "Um, can I use your phone I need to call my dad,"
"Sure,"
Spencer held out her hand to grab her friend's blackberry and noticed the cast on her arm.
"What the fuck happened to my arm?"
"I'd say you broke it,"
"I'd say I did too, damn muggle medicine sucks." She said grabbing the phone and dialing the number.
"What?"
"Uh nothing,"
"Hello," Spencer heard her father's voice say on the other line.
"Dad,"
"Spencer oh thank god your ok where have you been?"
"I'm in the hospital,"
"Stay right there, I'll be there as soon as I can."
"Dad where am I gonna go?"
Lucius sat in his study looking out the window when Tabby walked in with his breakfast.
"Master where is Miss Spencer?" She asked timidly.
"I sent her home,"
"W-why?"
"Because I couldn't keep her here, she didn't do anything to deserve to be locked up,"
"What about your freedom?"
"It doesn't matter anymore Tabby,"
"But Master, why?"
"Because Tabby I love her," He said still looking out the window. Tabby left and walked down the stairs to see Draco sitting in one of the chairs.
"So?" He asked raising an eye brow at the elf.
"He loves her,"
"Well that should be enough to set him free right? He learned how to accept a muggle,"
"It's not enough," The elf said looking down at the floor. "She has to accept him back."
Lucius felt so empty without her being here, there didn't feel like there was any light at all it this entire situation made the house feel dark and hopeless. But as long as Spencer was back with her family and friends he didn't mind as much she was happy that's all that mattered.
Spencer was still really confused as her father ran into her room.
"Spencer, oh my god it really is you," He said slowly walking up to her it's like she wasn't real.
"Hi dad," She said as he wrapped his arms around her.
"I thought I'd never see you again," He cried. "I'm so glad you're alright."
"I'm so sorry dad I skipped school and got into that accident I'm so sorry," She didn't believe her own words had everything really had been a dream? Was that man really a figment of her imagination?
"It's alright you didn't know," He said pulling away. "I'm just glad that all you got out of this was a broken arm, a sprained ankle and a few cuts,"
"My ankles fucked up too," She said in disbelief throwing the covers off herself to see she had a boot on her right ankle. "Muggle medicine fucking blows,"
"Muggle medicine?"
"It's a British saying,"
"It's alright darling I've gotten used to your weird sayings I'm so happy I get to hear them again." He said before hugging her again. "Oh lord you look like you haven't eaten in months do you want me to get you something to eat from somewhere?"
"A cheese burger with bacon and extra mayo and tomatoes,"
"Alright dear,"
"Jenna you want anything?"
"Jenna's here?" Her dad asked.
"Hi Mr. Montgomery," Jenna said waving at him.
"Oh god it's a miracle," He said hugging her. "I get my daughter and her best friend back all in one day. Do you want anything to eat, drink what?"
"I'm good with hospital food," Jenna said.
"Ok I'll be back soon,"
"See ya dad," They both said as he walked out ecstatic about the news he'd received.
A few minutes later a familiar beautiful redhead walked into the room.
"Hey Spence," The beautiful red head said bouncing over to her. "How are you?"
"I just woke up from a coma what do you think?"
"Well I just wanted to talk to you about a few things real quick."
"Fun," She said sarcastically rolling her eyes.
"So I was thinking that with all the press that's been around your story, and since you just woke up from this coma and since you're probably under a lot of stress. And I was thinking to avoid more stress I could make all the statements you want to make to the press for you,"
Predictable little attention whore. She thought.
"Well what do you think?"
"You know what I think Jessica I think that every time I see you I want to kick the crap out of you."
"Excuse me?"
"You heard me, you're a conniving little bitch who always gets what she wants because of daddy and step mommy and you need your perky little ass handed to you."
"You're just jealous,"
"Of what the fact that you're a spoiled little brat who doesn't know what real pain is."
"No of the fact that your mother wants nothing to do with you because she didn't want you in the first place. You're jealous because she actually cares about me."
Spencer was livid but she kept a straight face as she undid the tape on the IV. She didn't wince as she pulled it out.
"I'm not feeling so generous since I'm in a boot so here's the deal I'm giving you two seconds to run," She said throwing her legs over the edge of the bed before standing up.
"I'm not afraid of you,"
"Um... Jessica," Jenna said as Spencer walked over to her step sister. "I've seen her fight and if she's giving you time to run I suggest you use it."
"I'm not afraid of her for god sakes look at her what damage can she do with a broken arm. She's just like a little chiwawa all bark no bite."
"Actually I'm more like a chiwawa with rabies bitch," Spencer said gripping Jessica by her hair and slammed her head against the wall. Jessica yelled in pain as she sunk to the ground holding her head. "That's what I thought."
Jessica weakly stood back up and gave Spencer a death glare.
"I'm telling mom,"
"Go do it I. Don't. Care."
"And I'll make sure your dad knows too,"
"What part of I don't care don't you get dumbass."
Jessica huffed and ran out of the room.
"Run you little rat that what your best at," She screamed at the girl. "Can I get a nurse please?"
Spencer sat back in the bed she knew her mom was going to come back and chew her out but for the first time in years she didn't care what her mother said or did anymore. All she cared about was her perfect life and perfect daughter.
"Holy shit Spence I've never seen you be so tame when it comes to a fight."
"She's not worth much of my energy,"
When her dad came back with her burger she was in the middle of being scolded by a nurse for taking out her IV and hurting her step-sister she didn't care about what she said.
Things didn't add up if she had been in a coma for a few months how could she walk, for that matter if she sprained her ankle why didn't she feel any pain when she walked on it? And on top of all of that why didn't anyone know it was her yes her face was swollen but the swellings gone down and she had her license in her backpack why didn't they just look at it. Things just didn't add up and she got aggravated.
"Can you tell me why you didn't look in my back pack for my ID when I first got here?"
The nurse looked at her completely speechless.
"You're going to have to talk to the doctor about that. Now you should be able to leave in a few days."
"Great,"
"What happened Spence?" Her dad asked.
"Jessica came here and started being a bitch so I got up took my IV out and slammed her head against the wall."
"What why did you do that?"
"Hey she's lucky I didn't knock her teeth down her throat,"
"Just for the record I would've paid to see that," Jenna said with a smile.
"Why did you do it?"
"Because I'm sick of her attitude towards me,"
"Spencer you've had a rough day maybe you should eat your hamburger and then go to sleep."
"Excuse me I've been sleeping since September, I think I'm good for the next few weeks." She said taking a big bite of the burger.
"You shouldn't be putting your body through this,"
"I'm fine I should be out in a few days." She said looking around the room.
That's it for now let me know what you think about this interesting development.
