After Seth got to my dorm and I called a Taxi we rushed to the hospital.












We were directed to the waiting room where I found Abbie crying. Sitting beside her I rub her back, "any news?"












She shakes her head looking up to me slightly, "they took him through a door, t-they said to wait t-till further notice..." her voice shook unevenly as she spoke. Her eyes looked bloodshot, and now that I looked closely enough I saw a few drops of red on her hands.












"What happened?" I lean down to her and whispered so only she could hear.












The tears kept coming, "w-we were walking t-to t-the dorms... they... jumped out of n-nowhere!... they had a knife... Z-Zack jumped in the w-way..." her tears started to come faster now.












The killer came after my friends...












I was about to ask her more questions when a doctor walked in, "Ms. Abbie?"












Abbie stood up fast but shakily as the doctor walked up to her.












"Zack is fine" he says. "The knife didn't hit anything to vital. We just need to keep him here a few nights to keep an eye on him. But he will live."












Abbie's tears seemed to turn to happy ones as she repeatedly told the doctor thank you.












"Can we see him?"I ask as I stand beside Abbie.












"What's your relation?" He asks.













"Close friends" I say. "His family is nowhere near, a few states away."












"Schoolmates" the doctor says. "Okay, if you'll follow me you may come in. But he is still sedated and he won't wake up for a couple of hours.












"Okay", Abbie says. The doctor turned around and lead us down the hospital halls and to Zack's room. Flashbacks of visiting Seth in the hospital after he got shot crossed my mind...












Zack was, as the doctor said, asleep. The machine beside him beeped to the rhythm of his heart. He was under the bed covers and in a hospital gown. His face looked pale, nothing like the Zack I knew.












"I'll give you three a few minutes" the doctor said before leaving the room.













Abbie immediately went to the chair beside the hospital bed as she stared down at our childhood friend. As I looked at him I kept reminding myself that he was alive and safe. So was Abbie too thankfully.












We sat in silence for almost felt like an eternity when a nurse came in to tell us we needed to get back to school and that they would inform us if any changes in Zack's health uncured.












Putting an arm around Abbie all three of us walk slowly and silently to the outside of the hospital where a vehicle from the school was waiting to pick us up.












The ride back to school was silent as Abbie had finally stoped crying and was silently watching through the window as vehicles went by is on the road.
