"Johnny," Tee said as she looked at her brother on the bus.
"Are you ok?"
"I remember. I don't want it to happen again."
"Neither do I."
"I have… I have a plan."
"What is it?"
"I'll get Mike to stop. Then I'll run off. You need to find me and get an ambulance. They can't make us go if I'm in a hospital."
"What are you going to do?"
"Pretend. Johnny, I can't…"
"Alright. But don't do anything stupid."
"I won't," Tee promised and Johnny squeezed her hand.
"Mike… I'm going to be sick," Tee said and Mike stopped the bus.
"Tee. Tee!" Mike called as Tee scrambled from the bus and ran into the field.
"Tee!" Tracy shouted before she ran after her.
"Tee!" Johnny added as he followed Tracy. Tee stopped after a short way and fell, pretending to have passed out.
"Tee! Oh no. Tee!"
"What's happened?" Johnny asked as they fell beside her.
"Tee, it's Tracy. Can you hear me?" Tracy asked. "Tee?" She asked before she listened to her breathing.
"Tracy?" Mike asked as he joined her.
"She's breathing."
"We need an ambulance. Tee…"
"Alright. Gina, get an ambulance."
"Tee. Tee, wake up," Tracy said but Tee didn't move.
"Tee please."
"What's happened?"
"What's wrong with Tee?"
"We're not sure."
"Are we not going to the beach?"
"No. I don't know."
"Tee, wake up."
"She's freezing. Tracy…"
"Is it serious?"
"Please let Tee be alright."
"We're on it guys."
"It worked?" Tee asked as she opened her eyes in the hospital and saw Johnny beside her.
"It did."
"We're not going to the beach?"
"No."
"Tee. You're awake!" Tracy called as she came in.
"Hi."
"Are you ok? You passed out on us in a field."
"I can't remember."
"Well the doctor said that it's likely to be dehydration so I've got you a drink."
"Thanks. … The beach. Did everyone else go?"
"They did. They're really worried about you, but there was nothing that they could do to help you."
"That's good. I'd hate to have ruined everyone's day."
"Your health is our first priority Tee. And Johnny's here."
"Yeah," Tee said and Johnny squeezed her hand.
"Rest and fluids, the doctor said. Then, hopefully, we can join the others at home when they get back."
"I'd like that," Tee said and Johnny gave her a smile before she relaxed.
"Tee. Are you ok?" Sapphire asked as they came in.
"I'm good."
"Good," She said and she hugged Tee.
"We were worried about you."
"Really worried."
"You passed out in a field. We had to get an ambulance."
"Thank you. I hope you had fun at the beach."
"We did, but you're ok, which is the important bit."
"Thanks guys."
"Sorry you couldn't come to the beach Johnny."
"That's alright. I had to look after Tee."
"That's what big brothers are for eh?"
"Exactly," Tee said and they gave her a group hug before heading into the kitchen for dinner.
