Clean Break

I decided to hang out with Mike and Leon today at an abandoned building by Castle's place. The abandoned building was huge and the railings, stairs, and wheelchair ramps were the best for our skateboards. This wasn't the first time we were here and we're lucky we haven't gotten caught yet. There was one railing we haven't tried yet because it ran the full length of the 15 steps to the entrance of the building. It's not like we couldn't ride the railing, I'd bet we'd all do pretty well on it, but one misstep and we're breaking something.

"I think we should try the big rail," Leon said.

"No way. We could kill ourselves," Mike said with worry.

"We aren't going to kill ourselves. Well, it depends, but still, I think we should try it."

"Fine, you try it first, if you're not afraid of winding up in the hospital forever."

"You're so dramatic, little bro. I promise we'll be fine. How about you, Emmy? Are you going to try it?" Leon asked me.

"I don't know. It does seem a little dangerous," I said.

"Since when are you afraid of a little danger."

"I'm not afraid of danger, but I'd like to live as long as I can and without brain damage."

"You have a helmet."

"A helmet can only protect you so much."

"Yeah, that's true."

"Are you going to do it Leon or are you backing down?" Mike asked his brother.

"Yeah, I'm going to do it. I'm not a scaredy-cat like you two," Leon said with a chuckle.

"Fine, but if you die, can I have your Xbox?"

Leon glared at his little brother and said, "A, I'm not going to die and B, you can't have my Xbox."

"All right."

Leon put on his helmet and secured it tightly to his head. We went over to the rail and Leon got ready to ride it.

"Be careful," I said.

"Don't worry, I've been doing this longer than you two. I can handle this, easy," Leon said.

Leon got his board ready and skated around us a few times before he hopped onto the rail and slid down it with ease. He landed swiftly on the ground below and lifted his arms in triumph. He got off his board and looked at the two of us who were still standing at the top of the stairs.

"Come on you two. I bet you both can do it," Leon said from down below.

"Okay, I'm no chicken. If my bro can do it, I can do it," Mike said.

"Careful Mike," I said.

"Yeah, yeah, I got this."

Mike went to the busted out window and got some momentum going before he slid down the railing. Mike did just as well as his brother and landed it easily. We both clapped for him and he took a dramatic bow. His brother pushed him softly as he let out a laugh.

"All right, your turn Emmy," Leon said.

"Okay, if you two knuckleheads can do it, so can I," I said.

"Go for it, Emily," Mike said.

I made sure my helmet was secure on my head and went back to where Mike took off. I let out a short breath of air and manned my skateboard. I pushed off and when I got close to the railing I hopped on. It was awesome and I felt like I could do anything. I got to the end of the rail and that's when things took a turn for the worst. My foot slipped a bit, which made my skateboard teeter to the opposite side. I couldn't get my balance back and I fell, but not without my foot getting stuck in the curved part of the metal railing. All I heard was a loud snap as I fell to the concrete below me.

There wasn't any pain yet, but I figured I still had some adrenaline running through my body. I dared not look down at my leg because I was afraid of what I might see.

"Holy crap," Mike gasped as he looked down at me.

"Is it bad?" I asked the two brothers in front of me.

"Do you want us to be honest?" Leon asked.

"That would be nice."

"Well, let's just say, you have a lovely bone."

"Oh gosh."

I willed myself to look down at my injured leg and saw my leg twisted at a ghastly angle with the bone sticking out slightly. There was a little bit of blood trickling down, but not a lot.

"What do we do?" Mike asked, looking scared.

"Call 911," I said.

"But we're going to be in so much trouble."

"I know, but I kind of want to go to the hospital."

"Okay, I'll call," Leon said as he took out his cell phone.

While Leon was on the phone Mike said to me, "So, did you have fun?"

I glared daggers at him and said, "What do you think?"

"I just thought we could make some conversation."

"Well, it's not helping and my adrenaline's wearing off. My leg hurts so bad…"

"What's it feel like?"

"It feels like I just broke my leg."

"I mean does it burn, tingle, or something of the likes."

"Yes, Mike! It burns and aches like hell. Now stop trying to make conversation."

"Somebody's moody."

"If I could move right now, I'd hurt you."

"Okay, before we have any more broken bones, the ambulance is on its way. Do you want me to call your aunt?" Leon asked.

"Yeah, but she's going to kill me," I said.

"I know, but she needs to know."

"Yeah I know."

Leon contacted my aunt as we waited for the ambulance, and I could hear her clear as day through Leon's phone; and it wasn't even on speaker. She said that she'd meet us at the hospital and they promptly hung up.

"She sounded super pissed," Leon said, looking frightened.

"I could hear," I said.

"Sorry we got you into this mess, Emmy," Mike said.

"It's okay, I wanted to do it. It's my fault."

"I hope you're okay," Leon said.

"Thanks, so do I."

The ambulance finally arrived and they placed me onto a stretcher. They told my friends that they couldn't come with us and Leon said he'd deliver my skateboard to me later. They loaded me up and we drove at a quick pace to the hospital. When we got there, my aunt and Castle were already waiting in the parking lot.

"Oh my god, Em," my aunt said.

"You know, I thought it wasn't going to be as bad as it sounded, but it's bad," Castle said as he looked at my leg.

"Yeah, but thankfully the pain in my leg is numbing because they gave me some epic painkillers for it," I said.

"All right, my little drug induced niece. We'll see you soon," my aunt said.

I gave them a thumbs up and said, "See you on the other side."

They shook their heads as I was wheeled off to the operation room.

A few hours later I woke up in a hospital bed with my leg in a large white cast, resting in a sling that was hanging from a large metal pole. I looked over towards my aunt and she said, "Hey, how are you feeling?"

"Fine, but my leg itches like mad," I said.

Castle handed me a large scratcher and said, "I bought this for you, figured you'd have an itch."

"Thanks Castle," I said as I scratched at my itch.

"No problem."

"I'm glad you didn't hurt anything else Em. You know you're in big trouble," my aunt said.

"Yeah, I know, but it was so much fun," I said.

"But now you're going to be in here for a few days and then in the house for a few weeks. At least until you can start getting around with some crutches," My aunt said.

"So I get to miss school," I said with a small grin.

"I'm going in tomorrow to get some of your school work."

"Aww man."

"You brought this upon yourself."

"Eh…"

"Just think I can help you out," Castle said.

"I'm going to fail."

"Hey, I can do some homework."

"Yeah, the last time you helped me with my homework I got a D-."

"Those questions were unfair. I mean, since when was Pluto not a planet."

"For like seven or eight years, Castle," I said.

"That's absurd."

"Okay, we'll make sure Castle doesn't help you with your homework. I'll help you," my aunt said.

"I don't want your help either," I said.

"Why, me? I know a lot of stuff."

"Yeah, but you get frustrated easily and start taking over. It's scary."

"I do not," she argued.

"I have to agree with her," Castle said.

"But…"

"It's fine, I'll have Alexis help me. She gets it," I said.

"All right, that sounds like a good plan," my aunt said.

"Yeah, I bet Alexis would love to help you," Castle said.

I nodded and Aunt Kate said, "We're going to let you get some more rest, Em. We'll see you in the morning."

"See you tomorrow," I said.

"Bye, mini Beckett," Castle said.

"Bye."

They left my room and I groaned in frustration. This was going to be a very long month and a half.
