An hour later we get the go ahead signal. Kaylee and Jade got picked up already, but the rest of us stayed here. It was almost 9 at night.
"Thankyou Emily, for coming." I say hugging her in the elevator.
"No problem." She smiled. I looked at her pony tail, it was so small today.
"Did you cut your hair?" I ask. And her mood drops.
"Yes, but I hate it." She said taking out her pony tail revealing a very short style.
"It's not bad! Cute actually, I like it." I say hoping to make her happy. I hear the 'bing' of the elevator stopping on the 4th floor.
We walk to room 'F' to where Sam was. Emmette ran in first as the rest of us hesitate. I look down at my pink laces on my shoe and feel a pat on my back. I turn around and face Emily's smile ushering my to into the room. Amanda goes, so I follow her. I'm watching her black converse walk one by one. She's wearing high waist short shorts and a pink cut off tank top. She's so pretty not even fair. Before I know it I find myself looking at Sam, asleep, he doesn't look like I thought he would. He still had color in his cheeks, I just wish he would wake up. I see the IV running in his hand.
'That could have been me.' I think to myself. 'That should have been me.'
"Hey Sam." I quietly say. "I'm so sorry. This should be me laying here, if I hadn't moved to talk to James-" I was cut off by Amanda.
"Savannah, it wasn't your fault." She glared.
'Yes it is. It's all my fault. If I didn't get in a stupid fight with stupid tattle tails non of this would happen. Their revenge seeking ha gone way to far.'
"I know, I just feel like it is." I say looking away. Another hour passes Emmette is talking to Sam hoping he will wake up soon. Amanda is asleep on my shoulder and I'm having a conversation with Emily and James on the waiting corner of Sams room.
"I'm sorry I suggested we go Savannah. This is my fault." James looks at his feet.
"James, he would have found one of us anyway. What if he hurt Amanda? You would be broken right now. I know you feel like its your fault, but almost everyone in this room could say its their fault." I say understanding his situation. By now I feel Emily dozing off on my lap.
"How come you are so calm about this? You're taking this better than I thought you would." His body language changes to concern.
"I just know that no matter how bad things get, they will get better." I smile.
Lies.
