"OREN !"

Oren's head lies on my lap as I try waking him up. I lightly slap him but nothing happens.

Just then I see William driving the black Audi into the parking lot. He parks the car right where Oren and I are then jumps out.

"Help me take him to the hospital !" I plead.

Without hesitation William lifts Oren. I run and open the back door of car and William gently places Oren on the back seat. I sit next to him and William starts the car.

The drive to the hospital takes fifteen minutes. I call the hospital we were heading to and tell them to prepare the emergency room.

When we arrived Oren's convulsions have lessen but his fever has peaked. I let out a sigh of relief when I see three nurses waiting for us at the entrance.

They carry Oren on a stretcher then transfer him to a moving bed once we're inside the hospital.

He's taken to the ER and Will and I are told to wait. I head out to the receptionist's desk and try to fill in Oren's details.

Once I tell the her Oren's name, she pulls out a patient's folder from the cabinet behind her and takes it to the ER. I take a sneak peak and see Oren's picture on the front page.

Is he a regular patient here ?

***

After two hours of waiting, Will turns to me, a serious expression sprawled on his face.

"Ms Quinn we need to head home. Your father will be angry if he finds tha-"

I don't let Will finish what he's saying. "I'm not going home till I make sure Oren is out of danger."

I know I can be stubborn at times but I just can't leave without making sure Oren's okay.

He doesn't say anything after that. Ten minutes later the doctor comes out.

"Oren Kruse ?"

"Here" I say while running to where the doctor is standing.

"The patient's convulsions were due to the lack of oxygen in the brain and low blood sugar. For the lack of oxygen he needs to do little exercises such as morning jogs or short walks.

Then for the low blood sugar he needs to consume high sugary foods and drinks but we'll also give him some medication."

"Is he awake ?" I ask once I see the doctor's done talking.

"Not yet but he'll have to stay overnight so we can monitor him."

***

The drive back home is quite.

When I enter the house my dad and Jenna are not at home. I find a note on the fridge with my dad's handwriting saying he and Jenna have gone out for a gala and that Jenna made meatloaf for dinner.

Uugh. Why....

I order pizza instead. Once it arrives I eat three slices then drink a can of cola and I'm full. I do my assignments then head to bed.

***

I wake up at 7:40 the next morning.

I'm late... again.

I take a quick shower and dress in a denim skirt, grey sweater and white sneakers. My hair is tied in a tight ponytail.

I skip breakfast and head directly for the garage where Will is already waiting for me.

***

I arrive at school twenty five minutes later. When I head for my locker I find Charlie leaning on it.

"I thought you ditched school." She chuckles.

"On the second day...? I don't think so." I chuckle back.

I like Charlie.

She's different from all the girls I've ever been friends with. Maybe it's because she's somehow a girly tomboy ; if that even makes sense.

As I take out my books from my locker I see Oren opening his locker which is not far from mine.

"Can you excuse me." I say to Charlie who's talking to a blonde jock boy and head towards Oren whose now disappearing down the hallway.

"Hey"

I run and stop right in front of him. He pushes me away and keeps walking. I follow him but he doesn't stop.

"I know about the convulsions..." I say and that stops him on his tracks.

He then turns to face me.

I should have kept my big mouth shut.

One minute I'm on the corridor with him the next I'm in the janitor's closet pinned to the wall. His deep blue eyes piercing into my ocean blue ones.

"I don't know what you are talking about." He says in a firm voice.

"You had a conv-"

He stops me by placing his huge hand over my mouth and a bolt of electricity quickly passes where our bare skin touch.

He quickly retreats his hand then our eyes lock.

What just happened...

His eyes go wide and I know he felt it.

He stares at me and I stare back though my stare is a lot less threatening than his.

Without saying any other word, he storms out of the closet and I follow suit. Once we were out I see him staring at something behind me. I turn to look what it is and Charlie's hazel eyes meet mine.

Her eyes shift from me to Oren then back to me.

Great.

Just great.
