Oh My Gosh! It's a Dinosaur!

Chapter 8

Blood!? How on earth was I coughing up blood!? This was insane. Totally and completely insane.

I stood still, staring into the mirror as I watched the blood drip like drool down my lip and chin.

Rowan must have noticed that I wasn't moving inside because she spoke in a worried tone. "Nafri? Is everything okay?"

I wanted to tell her that I was okay. That she had nothing to worry about. But I somehow squeaked out, "No..."

"What happened? Did you get stuck? Did you bump into something really hard?"

"Blood..." I managed to say. I didn't know what else to do.

I could hear Rowan take a deep breath, trying to calm herself down.

"Okay. Okay. Where is it? Is it safe to come in?" I could tell she was trying not to hyperventilate.

Of course it was safe. I had only taken off my shirt. Well, if she didn't mind seeing me like that. Hopefully she wouldn't panic.

I silently willed my body to move and open the door for her.

As soon as I opened the door and she saw me, she seemed like she was about to swoon. She was much more freaked out than I was. Which may or may not have been a good thing.

"Just get me to a hospital," I said. It snapped Rowan right out of it.

"Right! Hospital. Now. Blood..."

I shake my head and pulled my shirt on as we walked through the mall to her car. Shopping would have to wait for a while.
