Hi! I'm going to try and make this chapter a bit longer than usual.
''Liam, can you hear me?'' Tracy asked Liam, who wasn't responding.
''I can hear sirens.'' Sapphire said.
''Saph, Gina's away at some course. Can you and Elektra look after the kids and make dinner?'' Tracy said.
''Yeah. But tell me what's going on!'' Elektra came outside.
''Come on!'' Sapphire explained to Elektra what happened. Since the whole S.E.T.A thing, Elektra had changed. She apologized to Liam, whom she had attacked and had started to care a bit more about the kids.
At the hospital, Tracy had found out that Liam was just having some severe migraines. But, they were keeping him for a few hours just to see how bad they get.
''This house is huge!'' Tee giggled. Just then, Lily's phone rang.
''Hello? No! Seriously! I'll ask now!'' Lily was looking a bit upset.
''Was it Tracy?'' Tee asked.
''Yes.'' Lily replied.
''What did she say?''
''Liam's…well…he collapsed earlier and now he is in hospital!''
''What's the matter?'' Cheryl asked as she poured them drinks.
''We need to get to Liam!'' Lily cried as she and Tee got into the car.
''Why?'' Cheryl was puzzled.
''He's in hospital!'' Tee explained what had happened only a few days ago.
''That's awful! Poor Liam! But, we're hours away!'' Cheryl said.
''Why?'' Tee questioned.
''Tee, Newcastle is at least 6 hours from where we are! We're in London, but you can ring up soon!'' Cheryl replied.
''Ok.''
''But why is he there?'' All of the kids at the Dumping Ground were confused. Gus and Toby had come back for a visit. Frank's foster family lived in Australia, so he was obviously too far to visit.
''I don't know!'' Sapphire shouted. ''Now, go and play pool or something. I'll make lunch!''
Tracy decided to check on Sapphire.
''Hi Saph, how are you managing?''
''I'm just making lunch. What happened to Liam?''
''He's just gotten some severe migraines. Oh, and by the way, Mike's got another better paying job at another care home, so I don't think that he's coming back. And Gina's away for a few weeks because she's going to Spain.''
''Alright. When's Liam coming home?''
''A few hours apparently. They want to see how bad his migraines can get because I think Liam has the worst migraines out of everyone I know!''
''Ok, I have to go now!''
''Bye then!'' Tracy hung up and held Liam's hand in her's. A few minutes later, she felt someone squeeze her hand.
''Liam! Thank goodness you're ok!''
''What happened?''
''You passed out because of your migraine. Are you ok?''
''My head's still aching!'' Usually, if Liam was injured or was ill, he kept it to himself. Once, he even broke his ankle and he didn't tell anyone until Tracy noticed found out.
Flashback
''Liam! Get down from the tree!'' Carmen yelled. He was only on the first branch. When he was getting down, he slipped on a wet patch and fell!
''Liam! Are you alright?'' Carmen asked as she helped him up. At that time, Liam and Carmen were friends and they were in the same class.
''Yeah, I'm fine!'' Liam replied. He knew that his ankle was broken badly, but he didn't like making a big fuss about it.
Liam soldiered on for the rest of the day, until after dinner, he trapped his ankle in the door. Tracy saw him and she told him to go to his room. He couldn't move.
''Liam, are you ok?'' Tracy asked. Just then, Carmen whispered something in her ear.
''Liam, did you fall off the tree earlier?'' Tracy asked.
''No.'' Liam lied.
''You did! Carmen was with you. Liam, just tell me because you're ankle might be broken.
''Ok, I did.'' Liam lied. He tried to walk on his broken ankle, but he heard a snap from his foot. He couldn't hold back the pain anymore. He fell back and Tracy caught him and picked him up. He was only ten, and he was quite small for his age. Tracy carried him to her car and put him in the back seat.
''Tracy, look I'm fine!'' Liam protested.
''What's going on?'' Lily asked as she got into the car.
''Lily, he's broken his ankle.'' Tracy explained what had happened. Liam's face was damp with tears because of the pain in his ankle. Lily comforted him.
They soon found out that Liam's ankle was broken and so was a bit of his foot. He would have to have surgery to sort it out. Liam wasn't allowed crutches, so he was stuck in bed for six weeks!
End of flashback
''Just sleep for a bit. It'll soon go.'' Tracy tucked him in. Soon, Liam was fast asleep. A doctor then approached Tracy.
''Liam is free to go now. We have prescribed some migraine tablets. These will make the headache less painful, but he may lose weight quickly.'' The doctor explained.
''Ok. Thank you.'' Tracy looked at Liam. He was fast asleep. He was only about 4 foot 10 and she was about 5ft 7. Carefully, Tracy picked him up and carried him to the car. She lay him down on the back seats. Tracy drove him home.
When Tracy arrived at the Dumping Ground, it was nearly midnight. She carried Liam up to his room and put him to bed.
''Night Liam!'' Tracy whispered. She kissed the top of his head and stroked his hair. When Liam was ill, he slept quite deeply. She noticed that Liam was a bit pale. Tracy guessed that it was because he was ill. She then got up and left.
Longer than usual! If you have any ideas, just PM me or leave a review!
