Bully

Part 31

(Still Anika's point of view)
My plans on finding Amy were destroyed when Dru, Dru's dad and Ian's mom were hospitalized. Good going mysterious bad guy.
I visit Dru briefly, then go to Jordan's room.
"Jeez, Jordan. You missed a whole crap load of stuff." I say, holding her hand in mine. As the best friend I feel like I should be there for her and tell her what's going on. That's when a nurse comes to get me.
"Can I not be in here?" I ask.
"That's not why I'm here. I've come to bring you to your friend, whom has requested your presence."
I look at the nurse questioning. "Okay."
The nurse directs me to Dru's room.
I smile at her, but she's doesn't smile back.
"You okay?" I look to the nurse, but she's gone.
"Dying, actually." Says Dru in her usual sarcastic tone.
"You're what?"
"Dying. Doctor says it'll be okay and what not, but I know the truth. I know I'm a goner."
"Don't speak that way."
"What are you, my mom?" She asks, but I can tell she is hurting. Her mom can't be here with her right now. But can she? A plan blooms in my head.
"Got to go, be right back." I say as I hurry out of Dru's room.
I run down the hall to the front desk, I ask the secretary, "Can you search up a person for me?"
The secretary looks at me like I'm crazy, "Uh, why?"
"I have a friend who thinks she's dying and her moms not here and it would be awesome if I could bring her here." I speak quickly, my words jumbling together. I think the secretary knew what I said, though.
"Who is this patient?" She asks.
"Dru Brown." I answer.
Another though occurs to me, I should probably get Jamie to come too.
"It'll take a minute-"
"That's okay be right back." I run out the doors of the hospital and down the road. I know Jamie lives not to far away from the hospital. I see a house with a mailbox that says 'Ryansons'. Perfect, I know what house is hers.
I run up to the door step and ring the door bell multiple times. An annoyed looking older woman comes to the door.
"Can I help you?" She raises an eyebrow that I'm pretty sure was completely drawn on.
"Yeah I'm looking for Jamie. It's kind of an emergency." The woman turns around and yells,
"Jamie! Get down here! Some blondes here to see ya!" Then she turns around and walks away as I here footsteps come from the house.
"Hello?" Jamie appears at the door.
"Jamie I really don't know how to tell you this," I bite my lower lip as and I try to figure out a way to explain why I'm here. "Dru is in a , un-stable state. She is currently at the hospital and-" I don't even need to finish my sentence and Jamie is slipping on her shoes and running out the door. I follow behind her. We reach the hospital and I tell Jamie the number of Dru's room.
"I'll meet you there." I tell her. "Any luck?" I ask the secretary.
She doesn't even answer, just nods her head in the direction of the doors. I turn around slowly to see a tall woman with brown hair, wearing heels and a shiny purple dress, walking into the hospital.
"Mrs-" What's Dru's moms last name. I wonder.
"Grace." The secretary whispers to me.
"Mrs. Grace!" I call out. She sees me and runs over to my spot.
"Where's Dru?" She asks breathlessly, as if she ran all the way here. I lead the way to Dru's room. Immediately Dru's mom runs to Dru's side. With Jamie holding Dru's left hand and Dru's mom holding Dru's right hand, Dru takes her final breaths.
