Ms. Popular (Joe Sugg/ Zoe Sugg)

Chapter 14

Randy Smith

I waited in the waiting room. I couldn't really sit so I paced the office. Delaney's family was already here but I still couldn't go in. But then I saw Joe walk out.

"Hey Randy." Joe said sadly. I hope everything was ok.

"How is she?" I ask quick.

"She's ok. She's awake now. She lost a lot of blood and broke her leg. She also has a concussion."

"Oh my gosh. If only I didn't take a shower. I would've got her first call."

"Its not your fault Randy. You can go back."

"Thanks Joe." Joe showed me back to her room was. I saw her parents and Zoe in there. They looked at me and gave a weak smile. They all left so I could be with her. I walked in and saw a broken girl in the bed. She had a bandage wrapped around her head and a cast on her leg.

"Delaney. Im so sorry." I said sitting on a chair next to her bed.

"Its not your fault, Randy." She replied, her voice sounding cracky.

"I know but its just---Im so glad your ok." She opened her arms out weakly allowing me to hug her. "What were you doing out?" I ask.

"I was coming to you. My parents got me really upset and to be honest, I don't want to live with them anymore." She admitted.

"Your still mad at them?" I ask.

"Yeah. I was coming to see if you would let me stay at your house until I could find my own place."

"You can stay at mine. My parents are barley home anyway. And maybe, once your better, we can move into an apartment together." I said.

"I would really like that." I kissed the top of her head. She smiled and laid back.

"I'll let you rest." I smile.

"Ok. Come back though."

"I will. I'll come tomorrow morning. I can miss school." She nodded. Then I heard a voice from out in the hall.

"You Joe and Zoe Sugg!" The voice said. I knew that voice. It was Stephanie. I walked out in the hall to see a smiling Stephanie running over to Joe and Zoe who had tear stained cheeks from crying.

"Steph, stop it." I scold. I go over to her to make sure she doesn't bug Joe and Zoe.

"Stop! You said I had to meet them myself and here I am." Stephanie replied.

"Not now. There sister just got in a terrible accident. You can't do this."

"Please. Just let me go say hi."

"I'll tell you what. Go in the waiting room. I'll talk to Joe and Zoe and ask them if they mind seeing you for a minute. And when I mean a minute, I mean it."

"Ok." Stephanie walked down the hall to the waiting room and walked over to Joe and Zoe.

"Hey. Sorry about that." I apologize.

"Its fine." Zoe shrugged wipping her puffy eyes.

"Listen. My sister has been wanting to meet both of you for years. This is finally her chance. She can actually stop bugging me and Delaney about meeting you both. If you wouldn't mind talking to her--"

"I would love to. Im just going to go clean up. Im pretty sure she's going to want pictures." Zoe smiled and started walking to the bathroom.

"I'll go talk to her now." Joe replied. I walked with him toward the waiting room to make sure Stephanie will behave herself. When she saw Joe her eyes lit up and she stood up.

"Oh my gosh. I've been wanting to meet you." Stephanie said.

"Well, now you get to. Sorry if Im not exactly seeming happy. Im a little upset right now." Joe replied.

"Its fine. Its just great to finally meet you."

"Its nice to meet you too. Now, do you want a picture?"

"Yes please." Stephanie took out her phone. I snapped a picture of them together and Joe also took a selfie with her.

"Thanks so much." Stephaine smiled. Then she saw Zoe and she really smiled.

"Hello!" Zoe smiled. She was much better at acting happy unlike Joe.

"Hi Zoe. I love your videos." Stephanie said.

"Thank you! Sorry I didn't come right away. I was fixing my makeup and hair. My makeup was terrible from crying. So, do you want a picture?"

"That would be lovely." I once again took a picture and they took a selfie. After that, both Joe and Zoe went back to Delaney's room. I told Steph to head home and I stayed a little longer. I walked back to her room and sat on a chair and held her hand.

"I don't think Stephanie is going to bug you anymore." I said.

"Did she get a picture with Joe and Zoe?" She asked.

"Yeah."

"Thank goodness!" We both stopped talking for a little bit and just sat there. I liked the silence. It was nice to have just me and Delaney together. But, my phone ringing ruined the moment. I looked at it to see that my mom was calling. That's weird? She never calls me.

"Mom?" I answer the phone.

"Hey Randy. You need to come home right away." My mom said. It sounded like she was crying a little bit.

"Mom. Is everything alright?" I asked

"Just come home." She hung up. I looked over at Delaney who looked worried.

"Is everything ok?" Delaney asked.

"I don't know. My mom called, which is unusual. She said I need to come home right now." I replied.

"Oh. Ok. I hope everything is fine." She frowned.

"I'll come back as soon as I can." As I was leaving the room I noticed paramedics wheeling someone on a stretcher fast through the hall. That's one thing I hate about hospitals. The chaos. I was in the parking lot when I noticed a car that looked pretty similar to my dads. I didn't think of it and got in my car driving home. I saw my mom sitting outside on the porch smoking a cigarette. I got out and walked over to her.

"What's wrong mom?" I asked. She looked up at me with tear stained cheeks.

"You need to go to the hospital now. Your fathers already there." My mom replied.

"I was just there. What's going on?" I was getting worried now.

"It's Stephanie." This conversation was all too familiar with my sister Haley.

"What do you mean Stephanie? Mom?! What do you mean!?" I yelled.

"Stephanie got in a very serious car accident." My mom started crying.

"You have to come to the hospital too."

"I can't. I saw one of my daughters go through this and I'm not going to see another." I ran to my car and slammed my door. I really hope this doesn't turn out like it did with Haley.
