After Troy told us that Camila was in the hospital it felt like I couldn't breathe at all. Mostly because I was the oldest in the group so that meant the girls were my responsibility and I know Camila's parents would be upset with me. She was fine not too long ago. She just left to go find Dinah. I didn't realize I haven't moved from the spot in the bathroom until I felt a slap to my face and someone shaking me.

"Ally get your shit together!" Normani yelled at me.

"Did you just slap me?" I asked rubbing the side of my face that was stinging.

"Yeah Normani that wasn't really necessary" Troy said.

"Well she was just standing there in a daze so I had to do something" Normani said.

"Okay we should just get to the hospital. Wait where's Lauren?" I said.

"Oh she ran out I guess to get to the hospital as fast as she could when she heard the news" Troy said.

"Alright let's go. I want to at least see if Camila's okay" I said.

When we got to the hospital it was chaos outside of Camila's room and I also heard loud music playing inside of Camila's room. When I spotted Dinah I immediately approached her.

"What the hell Dinah!" I yelled.

"Woah Ally isn't there something in the bible about thy should not curse or something" Dinah said.

"I don't fucking care what the bible said right now. I thought she was coming to you" I said with anger in my voice.

"Well... she was supposed to but I went across the street to get ice cream and Camila crossed the street without looking both ways and a car hit her" Dinah said.

"What! Oh my god her parents are going to kill me" I said sitting down in shock and placing my face in my hands.

"It's not that bad Ally as it sounds. She didn't go under or over the car she was just hit" Dinah said.

"Dinah you aren't helping" Normani said.

"Babe you've always had a bad way of explaining things" Siope said.

"What I mean is that Camila only has a few cuts and bruises and a sprained wrist not like head trauma or whatever. She's actually conscious in her room right now blasting music pretty loudly" Dinah said.

"Dinah you couldn't tell me that before" I yelled at her.

Troy placed his hand on my lower back and rubbed his hand up and down soothingly.

"Calm down Ally. Everything is going to be okay" Troy whispered in my ear.

"Well you asked what happened so I gave you the whole story. Don't get mad with me" Dinah said.

"You're Dinah I'm sorry. I'm just frustrated is all" I said.

Just when I thought it couldn't get any worse I heard yelling outside of Camila's room. I turned to see Lauren yelling at some guy with a bouquet of flowers and a teddy bear.

"You can tell Austin that Camila doesn't want his stupid roses and he can take that stuffed bear back and shove it up his ass" Lauren yelled.

"But... I have to deliver this to her that's what I was paid to do" the boy said with a shaky voice.

Lauren took the bouquet of flowers and threw them in the trash and when she noticed a little girl walk by in a hospital gown she grabbed the stuffed animal and handed it to the little girl who told her thank you and walked away with the stuffed animal. The boy looked at Lauren and then ran towards the elevators.
