A Girl and a Whiteboard

Chapter Twenty-seven

I think I like the whole author's notes at the beginning thing now! And here's the long anticipated wait to see what actually happened. I hope you guys like it(:

No. No. My feeling was me talking again. Not this. No. No. No. This can't happen to me again. He said he wouldn't leave me. Please no. I can't do this again.

"What do you mean accident?" Annabelle was trying so hard not to break down and show signs of worry but I could tell she was gripping the bleachers to stop from shaking and that she was blinking rapidly to not let the tears fall.

Jace looked down before he talked, "They were hit by another car on the way here, they were sent to the hospital."

"Um, did they say anything else?" She meant, was there any casualties.

"I don't know, I can drive you guys there."

"Oh okay yeah let's go." She stood up and grabbed Lily and picked her up and kissed her.

"Emory."

"Emory."

Then I felt someone shake me, "Emory, come on we have to go."

I nodded and clutched my poster and started following them. I felt like a zombie, not alive but still walking through life. If I didn't go and didn't hear what the doctors said then it didn't happen right?

I knew Jace was dragging me along and trying to get me to calm down, I could see his lips moving but nothing coming out of them. I knew we were moving though because I could feel the car move.

I felt the car stop and Jace came around and opened the door for me. We walked into the hospital and the first thing I felt was the cold. They were always colder and pale. I know there's hope in hospitals and people are saving lives somewhere around here but for me, this is where people that were close to me died.

We walked up to the reception desk and once we walked in, I saw Annabelle start to panic and that's when I knew I had to pull myself together. I caught her gaze and nodded towards the waiting area so she can take Lily there.

I walked up to the lady there with Jace beside me, "I'm looking for Andrew Jacobs, Oliver James, and Matthew Reed."

I saw Jace look at me and I just shrugged at him and then looked back at the receptionist hoping she'll give me some room numbers.

"I can't give out personal information." Come on lady?!? Do I look like I could kill someone? I don't even have a weapon on me, maybe a poster board but that's not even a weapon!

"Okay well I'm Oliver Reed's sister, this guy right here is Matthew Reed's brother, and that woman over there with that cute little girl are Andrew Jacobs' family, so please tell me what room they're in."

"Are you guys over 18?" Are you kidding me?!?!

"No I'm sorry to say we're not, please I just want to see if my brother and his friends are okay."

"You need an adult to confirm your 'stories'"

"Okay we'll go get one."

I dragged Jace away and walked over to Annabelle, "You just need to confirm that you're Andrew's mom and just agree with the rest okay?"

She stood up with Lily in tow and we walked up again to this not so nice lady, "Can we please have my son's room number?"

"Okay they're in rooms 106, 108, and 110 on the third floor."

"Thank you, you're oh so very helpful." I gritted out.

With that I rushed to the elevator and waited for everybody to get in and then hit the number 3. This elevator was the slowest elevator I've ever been on in my entire life. They should be faster, I'm going to file a complaint later. The doors finally opened and we kept walking and twisting corners until I finally reached the 100's.
