Jenna forgot all about Alodie, Davey and Kyle and thought of nothing but the presant. Mikell was holding her by the waist. She began to get tired as they walked home. She placed her head on his broad chest. He kissed her forehead. "We're almost home." He said sincerly, noticing the tired look on her face . It was raining out, so hard, that they were both soaked. Her pants were saging, her shirt was stiking to her skin, and the wind stung as freezing air blew at their faces. Only each others body temperature kept them warm. Jenna, now shivering violently, grabed onto Mikell's jaket. " I'm so cold." She wispered, but her cattering teeth and the sound of thunder made it impssible for Mikell to hear. About an hour later, they got to Jenna's house. Walking into the house with Mikell, he turned to her and said," I'd better get going. You need to sleep." " No, stay. Get warmed up. Your so cold." Mikell nodded, not wanting to disagree. He was in no rush to go back out in that cold. Jenna took his hand and led him up to her parents bedroom. "Heres some of my fathers Pjs, were these, and I'll dry up your clothes." Jenna smiled and closed the door behind her,-he looks even cuter wet.- Walking back to her bedroom, she began to get undressed, not caring if Mikell saw. She went into her room, closed the door and dried off. -what to wear....what to wear.- Jenna decided that she would were her blue, silver and black sweats. She grabed her cell phone, put it in her pocket and went out into the hallway with a towel wrapped around her hair. She looked towards her parents room, the light was still on. She went to the bedroom and knocked on the door. " Mikell? Did you get lost?" laughed Jenna. The door opened and she saw why he was taking so long. Laughing uncontrolably at how Mikell looked he began to laugh too. The Pjs were way to big. he looked like a toddler playing dress up in his parents clothes. " Umm yea, just a little bit to big." said Mikell when they stopped laughing.
They sat in the family room on the couch with hot chocolate infront of the fire place as Mikell's clothes dried. Jenna layed in Mikells arms. Half an hour later the dryer beeped and Jenna got up to get his clothes. " I sure am going to miss you in that." said Jenna handing Mikells clothes with a smirk. " Yea me too, I've become attached to them...in a way." Joked Mikell. He leaned in and gave her a kiss and headed up the stairs to change. Just as Jenna watched him, the phone rang. " Hello?" " Jenna!" It was her friend Yvone. She heard the stressed tone in her voice. " Wats wrong?" " Its Alodie." " Whats wrong? What happened to her?!" Jenna became scared and angry and worryied all at the same time and with every word her voice became louder. Mikell came down stairs dressed. He stood next to her." Whats wrong?" Jenna didn't answer him. " I don't know how to tell you this. I've been trying to get to you all night since it happened." " What happened?!! Tell me!" Jenna was now shouting. " She got hit by a car, about 2 blocks away from your house. She was rushed to hospital and Davey was with her." " What?'-Jenna began to cry- " Is she ok? Oh my god." " Jenna..." Not wanting to hear anymore she hung up the phone and turned to Mikell." I have to go." She said sternly holding back the tears. " Baby, what happened?" " Alodie got hit by a car. We have to go. I'm taking you home and then I'm going to the hospital. I need you to call my parents." " No, I'm going with you." " Look, I need to do this. I need you to just do what I asked." Mikell understood, but didn't say anything. Jenna grabed her coat, and went out into the garage. She went over to the dirt bike she got for christmas last year. She took 2 helmets from the wall and got on. Mikell knew what to do. He took a helmet from Jenna and got on. She opened the garage door and went over to the key pad to close the door. She started the engine and raced off to Mikell's house. In no time, they were there and she kissed him good-bye, and raced off to the hospital. The rain made it slippery and hard for the tires to grip. But Jenna kept going.
Reaching the hospital she went to the front desk and asked were Alodie was." Room G700, 6th floor." Said the secratary. Jenna ran up the stairs all the way up to the 6th floor. She found Alodie's room, out of breath,tired and wet. She saw Davey sitting by her bed. He too was soaking wet. " Davey." Said Jenna in a sad/scared way.

Davey managed a weak grin at Jenna, then he turned back to Alodie. "She's very badly injured," he whispered so that Jenna could stil hear him, but only slightly. "The doctors say she'll make it, but barely. The car hit her at 60 miles per hour... she flew right off her bike and the impact on the ground was very powerful... If only I'd come back to see her... maybe then she wouldn't have driven onto the road. Alodie..." He held her hand. She was in a bad state. Her head was bandaged and so were a lot of the other parts of her body. He couldn't stand looking at her like this. "I'm so sorry..." He whispered.

Jenna walked in closer to the bed. She put her hand on Davey's shoulder." This isn't you fault. Its mine. I should have done more to stop her. If only I hadn't...." Jenna's voice faded away. She took a chair that was up against the wall and put it on the other side of the bed across from Davey. She sat down and took Alodie's hand. " I'm sorry." She wispered. She looked up at Davey, and began to cry silently. She felt this void between Davey, her, and Alodie. " How did this happen? I mean, I know how. But I guess the right question is why." Jenna's voice was low, but loud enough for Davey to hear. She didn't really expect a response, she didn't care if he did or not, she just wanted Alodie to be okay.

Davey shrugged. He had no answers for Jenna's questions. He did not know how all this happened. It was the fault of so many things... He looked down at Alodie. Even with a bandaged head, her face still looked pretty, but her sad face depressed him. "Alodie... wake up... please, Alodie?" Davey pleaed, holding her hand gently. He lifted it to his cheek and let her touch his face lightly.
Alodie's eyelids fluttered open. "Davey?" She asked weakly, her voice breaking. "Oh Alodie!" He kissed her on the cheek. She smiled, then fell back asleep. The docter came in. "Ahh. She awoke, just for you two. But now she needs her rest. Run along you two."

Jenna nodded. She gently placed Alodies hand under the covers. " I'll be back. I promise." Wispered Jenna as she kissed her forehead. She walked outside of the room and saw Davey standing against the wall infront of the room . She looked into his eyes. She saw the expression on his face. -he thinks this is his fault dosn't he?- The doctor closed the door behind Jenna. Unfortinetly. " Davey... Please don't be sad. She woke up. Thats a good sighn. I know you feel bad. But please don't be so sad." Said Jenna sincerly. -He's been depressed all day-" Please?"

Davey glared at Jenna. "How can I not be sad when Alodie's lying in there badly injured. She could've died Jenna! It was my fault! I mean, she was biking looking for ME! If I hadn't been so sensitive... this might never had happened." Davey looked back at Alodie's room. "I think I'm going to go get her flowers or something. I'll see you later Jenna." Davey left.

Jenna watched Davey go. -why is he so cold towards me? Its not his fault....at least, it wasn't all his fault. Alodie shouldn't have been in the street. She should have gone home and try calling him. I feel so alone.... Jenna didn't know what to do now. She looked up and down the hallways, only nurses and docters seemed to have something to do. Jenna leaned up against the wall, slowly, she slid down and sat on the floor. Jenna put her her head in her hands and waited with her knees in her chest. About an hour later, her phone vibrated, she pulled out her phone and looked at the caller Id. It was Mikell. Half an hour later it was her parents. Then it was Sian, her other good buddy. She listened to the messages. Mikell:" Jenna? baby, please, pick up the phone. I'm so worryed about you. Call me when you get a chance. Please? I love you." Her parents: " Jennafer Katherin Parker. Pick up this phone right now. ( it was her mom of course.) Honey, (this is her dad) she can't hear you right now. Hang up the phone. She's fine. (her mom) Shut up....(it goes on for 30 minutes) Sian: " I heard about Alodie.I'm sorry. I know you two were good friends. Call me when you get a chance okay? I'm here for you." -Oh god Sian. He's always flirting with me. Maybe I should tell him I'm with Mikell.- Jenna put her phone away and went back into the position she was in before, and just waited for any reason to stand back up.

Davey walked into the hospital, half a dozen roses in one hand and a small box of chocolates in the other. He rode up the elevator to Alodie's floor and saw that Jenna was still there. He raised his eyebrows, wondering what she'd been doing all that time. He shrugged to himself, and walked over to Alodie's room. A docter came out. "May we see Alodie now?" The docter nodded. "Yes, she's been awake for a while and has requested your prescence." He looked over at Jenna. "You too, young lady. Don't sit on the floor like that. It's dirty." The docter walked away and Davey shook his head. "A docter admitting his hospitals are unsanitary. Well, let's go." Davey walked into the room and saw Alodie propped up on pillows, staring out the window. "Hey Alodie," he said softly. Alodie turned her head to look at him. The bandages on her head were off, but she still had cuts on her face. She smiled. "Hey Davey. Those for me?" Davey nodded and handed her the flowers and chocolate. She put the flowers on the bedside table and ate one of the chocolates. "Thanks." She spotted Jenna. "Oh, hey Jenna. How ya been?" She asked in a weak and tired voice. "Jenna's been out there the entire time," Davey said. Alodie's expression became worried. "You were out there for that long? Doing what?" Her voice broke in the middle; she was so weak, but she refused to let her injuries prevent her from talking to her friends.

" umm, okay I guess. I've been worryed about you." by this time, Jenna had become depressed, her voice was shakey, low, and as sad as it could get.- I can't be like this infront of her. I have to cheer up. Jenna looked over at Davey and relized that he brought her flowers and candy.-shoot, I didn't even bring her anything- She walked over to Alodie's bed and gave her a small smile. " How are you feeling? I've been so worryied about you." she said alittle cheerfully.Looking down at Alodie, she felt more depressed. Her stomach began to tighten, and her legs felt week.I'm so tired. But I can't leave Alodie. Jenna looked around the room for a second and then looked back down to her.

Alodie looked up at her best friend. Even in her state of weakness, she could tell Jenna felt a bit uncomfortable. "I'm doing fine. I'll live. You look tired. Stop worrying, I'll be fine. I can leave next week. Until then..." She gestured around the room, and sighed. "I am going to be so bored." She took another chocolate out of the box and ate it. "Oh, I'm sorry. Want one?" She offered the box to Jenna.

Jenna looked down at the choclates and grabed her stomach. " no, thank you though." Jenna took the seat that she sat in before she left the first time. " You get better. I don't know how much longer I can stand without talking on the phone with you all day." Jenna smiled weakly as if she was the one injuered. Her stomach tightened and began to hurt. Grabing at her stomach Jenna layed back in her chair and tryed her best to not alarm Alodie. -I think I'm going to be sick- Listening to the machines, Jenna wondered if Alodie would really get out in just a week. Her stomach stung as Jenna tryed to re-adjust herself. She looked up at Alodie, and then at the floor. hmm...is the floor really that dirty? uuuuuuoooooh my stomach....

Alodie looked around the room. "I can't believe you don't want any chocolates Jenna. You love them as much as I do." She ate another one. "I'm a quick healer, or so the docter says. And don't worry, they have phones here." She looked at Jenna. "Jenna? Jenna! Are you okay? You don't look so good." A nurse walked in. "Ok Alodie, time for me to check up on you. Hey... what's wrong with her?" Alodie started to get up. "Jenna?" Davey made her sit back down. "Stay, Alodie. Jenna, are you okay?" He walked in front of her and pushed her back on the chair. She'd almost fallen off. "Jenna! Speak to me."

Jenna opened her eyes weakly,-whats going on? did I pass out or something. She saw Davey infront of her face, calling to her. " Davey, I didn't know you cared so much." She looked up and saw Alodie. dang, I'm still in Alodie's room, I wasn't supposed to alarm her! Jenna sat back in her chair. " I'm fine really, hahahah, just fine." as cheerfully as she could, she tryed to re-asure Alodie. Davey let go of Jenna and she smiled. Not even a minute later, Jenna felt the sudden earge to...to.... She got up from her chair so fast that she almost fell. She ran out the door and tryed to make it to a bathroom. " Were is the.." Sounds of intestinal juices and undigested food came flying out of her mouth and hitting the floor, before she could finish. Granbing to her stomach she yelled in pain. " Ahhhhhhhh! Ahhhhh! My stomach!" A nurse came up to her and Jenna looked back at Alodie's room. " Close her door! I don't want her to see me like this. She has to get...." she said pointing to Alodie room.She interupted herself to vomet. She cleared her throut when she was finished and saw that the nurse still hadn't gone to close the door. She became angry, and at that moment. it seemed like a good reason. " Didn't I tell you to go! What are you doing just standing here?! Close the..." The nurse went to go close the door as the other nurse that came from Alodie room went over to Jenna and helped her as she once again through-up. But this time, it was nothing, just air.." Ahhhh my god!!!" When she was finally done she passed out, unfortinelty straight into her vomet.

Alodie watched as the second nurse go in and help Jenna up. Alodie looked away. Her friend was covered in vomit. "Don't worry Alodie. We'll go get your friend to another room. From the looks of this vomit, I think she has a stomach bug and ate too much." The nurse carried Jenna into another room. Alodie looked at Davey. "Gee, I hope she's okay." Davey nodded. "Don't worry. She'll be fine. After all, you're in a much worse state than her." Alodie grinned. "Yeah but I'm getting better." The door opened and a doctor walked in. "You're going to have to leave now. I need to check up on Alodie as the nurse who was supposed to do it is now tending to that girl." Davey nodded and left. The doctor checked Alodie over and made sure she was healing okay. "Well you seem to be fine..." he said as he made sure her head was okay. "What the- You have a bump here." Alodie scrunched up her forehead in surprise. "What?" The doctor shushed her and quickly took her into the x-ray room. "Alodie... you have a classic concussion." "What the heck is that?" "Well... the classic concussion, which is the most severe form, occurs when the person loses consciousness for a brief period of time and has no memory of the event." Alodie looked at him. "I have my memory! What event?" The doctor stared at her sadly. "You got hit by a car." "What? How the heck did I get hit by a car?" "Well... Don't you wonder why you are here, Alodie?" "Because I have injuries." "Do you know where you got them from?" "I-" Alodie paused, her mouth opened in mid-sentance. She shook her head slowly. "No... I don't... But I still remember my family and friends." The doctor nodded. "Well that's good then. But tell your friends that you may have memory lapses now and then. They're not sever but you will have to stay in the hospital just in case." "What!" The docter nodded gravely. "Now go on." He led Alodie back in her room, who sat on her bed, depressed. "How did I get these injuries..."

The nurse cleaned up Jenna and put her in a hospital bed, tucked her in, and left. Jenna slept. Hours past and she still hadn't come woken up yet. Her phone rang and the nurse picked it up. " Hello?" " Hi, is Jenna there?" " Um, not exactly, who's this." " Her boyfriend, Mikell." " Oh you are? okay then, well, Jenna is unconses in the hospital. She's sick. Please come down and visit. She needs the help." " What!! Oh my god what happened." "I'm not sure, we r doing tests, she just started to vomit." " Umm okay. I'll be right there." The nurse hung up the phone and put it in the bed with Jenna.Half an hour later, Mikell came to visit his Gf along with her parents. The nurse led hind Mr., and Mrs. Parker to the front desk to fill out forms. Mikell went into Jenna's room. It was so dark, except for one light that simmered over lightly over Jenna's face. " She looks beutiful." Wispered Mikell as he walked over to bed. He sat down on a seat that was next to her bed. He took her hand in his and watched her sleep. An hour had past and nobody had come in to visit Jenna, not even her parents. The nusre came in not soon after Mikell relized this. " Excuse me. Are her parents still here?" The nurse looked at him simpethically. " I'm sorry, but no. They decided to leave. But they put you down as an imedeate member, so you can stay here all night if you wish." " Yes, i would, thank you." " Your so sweat. Well, since you are now an imediate family member, you can find out the results from our tests." " okay, I would like that." Mikell smiled and stood up to stand next to the nurse. " Well, she has an ulser. We believe it formed from stress. She also has what we think could be some form from of a bug or food poisoning. We can't tell right now, at least not until she wakes up. One of her ribs are also brused." " How is her rib brused?" " We aren't sure. But it couldv'e happened if she has fallen, like a flight of stairs or something." " The bug or food poisoning?" " Anything that she could've eaten in the last 10 hours." " Oh, the ulser?" " Stress like I said. Her parents said that her best friend and her little brother is in the hospital also. That could be it. Home promblems. Anything that could stress her out really." " So this happens, just like that?" Mikell sighed " No. For this to develop, she must have been under alot of stress for a long period of time, or an extream amount of stress in a shorter period of time." " Oh I see. Thank you for your help." The nurse nodded, filled out her chart, checked Jenna's pulse and left. Mikell sat back down and held her hand, in the darkness, the silence, in the wonder of when she will wake up.
