41. long, long way from home

"i think we're friends now"

(T.W. - mentions of child abuse)

Elena woke up in the hospital room, many wires attached to her body. Her eyes found Adina, Tory, Devon and Moon passed out on the chairs in her hospital room.

Elena let out a groan causing Devon's eyes to open, "Holy shit! She's awake! She's awake!" The youngest shook awake the three teens, "E! You're alive."

"I'm so sorry, I knew your head was still bad but I didn't think you'd pass out." Tory apologized, the girl had obviously been crying, "It's okay." Elena's voice was hoarse, "I didn't know either. I ignored it."

Moon let out a sigh, "I was doing so much manifesting for you to be okay. You've been out for like two days." Moon grabbed Elena's hand softly, "Sam tried to be here but like obviously we didn't let her in."

Adina spoke squeezing Elena's other hand, the action suddenly reminded Elena of Miguel, "Miguel? Is he okay?" The four girls shared a look, "Ugh.. girl.. he took off after the match. Johnny and Robby went after him but I don't think Robby knows why they left."

Elena gasped at the information as Tory elbowed Adina, "I don't think she needed to hear that just waking up." Elena sat up in bed, "I need to go after him."

Devon and Moon gently shoved her back down, "There's something else.. Kreese.. he got arrested for assault charges on Stingray." Elena paused now about to cry again, "What?! No way! He wouldn't do that! I really got-."

"E-El, babe, stay down, okay.. You bruised your skull, you need to be more careful, which means a lot of rest. And if you don't get rest then I'm banning you from karate and you don't want that correct?"

Elena nodded her head like a kicked puppy, Adina grinned, "Good, now rest." Elena huffed as the taller girl walked out of the room with her arm around Tory. Likely leaving before Elena could try to argue.

Moon squeezed Elena's hand grabbing her attention, "I need to get home but call me when you need something." Moon pressed a quick kiss to Elena's cheek before she stepped out of the room.

Devon sat at the edge of the bed, "Hey." Elena smiled softly, "Hey.. do you know if Miguel knows I'm here?" She asked, subtly missing the boy, "No, I don't think he does. He left during Sam's last match, probably doesn't know. If he did, he'd be here."

Devon reminded pointedly, "That guys like in love with you or something." Elena let out a laugh, knowing Devon likely didn't know what happened between them.

"Did you know.. Miguel and I dated for nearly a year?" Devon's eyes widened in realization, clapping her hands, "No way! I thought he was just in love with you. Oh my gosh, it makes so much sense."
