AN: I honestly thought this picture was just so funny for this chapter
I stare at them blankly. Oli's in jail?
"What happened?" I ask.
"He left a while ago," Kellin says. "About an hour later he called and said he was in a holding cell. He beat the shit- sorry Mrs. Fuentes -out of Ronnie and the cops got called on him."
I can't believe Oli would do that. Then again, Ronnie threatened to out him and Kellin.
"We'll get him out," Dad promises.
I nod. "Thank you."
"But we won't be able to get Ronnie for any of this," Tony reminds us. "His father's a councilman. He can get away with anything."
I frown. Tony's right.
"If he gets caught hurting any of you, the school will have no choice but to punish him," my mom assures us.
I nod again. Mom stands and gives me a quick squeeze, then walks out. Dad promises to get Oli, then follows her.
"That idiot," I mutter, referring to Oli.
Everyone but Kellin nods in agreement.
"I think he's a sweetheart," Kellin gushes. "A stupid sweetheart."
"Ew," is the only thing said. Thank you Mike.
Kellin glares at him.
By now, it's past 3 in the morning. I can't believe they're all still here. For me.
"You should go home and sleep," I tell them. "All of you."
They all whine and complain.
"You have school," I cross my arms. "Don't miss it for me."
"You think I'm going to school after all of this?" Mike scoffs. Kellin nods.
"At least go sleep," I beg.
"Fine. But we're coming back later," Jaime says.
"I can't wait," I say.
I get a hug from all of them as they leave. I love those morons. It's great to have them all back.
I lay back down, getting comfortable. Although that's hard to do when you're wearing a dress that your ass hangs out of.
I'm scared to sleep. I don't want to slip back into a coma or something. I know it's ridiculous to think that, but I'm still worried.
I decide to just rest my eyes. I don't know how long I do that for, but when I open them again, it looks like midday outside. Well, it's nice to know I'm conscious.
I sit up, rubbing my eyes. No one else is here. I guess it's nice to have some alone time. It's also nice to know no one was watching me sleep. That'd be weird.
I wonder what everyone's doing right now. Hopefully sleeping. I'd want them to be at school, but they were up all night with me. They deserve a break. They deserve a lot more.
I haven't even been in this hospital for a day yet and I already want out. I really hope I don't get sent to a mental hospital. I don't think they could force me to go, but it's still a possibility.
I sigh. There's nothing to do here. I kind of want to go back to sleep.
But a nurse walks in. I look up at him.
"You have some visitors," he tells me.
"Send them in," I say.
He nods and walks out. A few minutes later, Jonny, Kyle, and Travis come walking in.
