Dick's POV
I was sitting with mom and dad. I was worrying my head off for Rachel. It had been 1 hour. I fighting tears and held my fears inside my head. I was fearing that she was hurt. Then the phone rang, mom got up and answered it. "Hello" said mom into the phone. Then the phone fell out of her hand. Her breath was shaky. I stood up and caught her as she was about to fall. She was crying. "What is it?" I asked. "Rachel hurt badly, she's in the hospital and garfield's unconscious; apparently he was found bloodily next to her" mom said. I got her into the car and we drove to the hospital. We got out and she took off her heels and began to run into the hospital. I ran after her. "Where's my daughter?!" Mom said. "Who m'am" said the secretary. "Rachel Roth 16 year old girl, purple hair, and indigo eyes; my daughter" she said. "Room 64" she said. Mom ran off quickly. I ran after her. We got to room 64, there was Rachel. She was on life support. She had an oxygen tube on her nose. Garfield's mother was in there. She was crying. I looked over and Garfield was on the other side of Rachel. He looked about as bad as Rachel did. his hands were bloody, he had a black eye, and scratches on his face. His hair was slicked back with blood. His arm was wrapped up. "What happened to his arm?" I asked the nurse that was in there. "Gun shot" she said. Gun shot. Rachel's dad never got that violent. We stayed for 5 hours. Mom was crying her eyes out with ms. Rita ,garfield's mom. Dad had arrived and was holding mom. Mom stayed with Rachel that night. Mom called about 1 am that Rachel had woken up and they did an X-ray off her back and that it was only numbness that made her not be able feel her legs. Garfield had not waken up yet. Rachel was crying pretty hard and that she needs comfort. So I got up and put on a T-shirt and jeans and I grabbed my car keys and got in my car. I drove to the hospital. I knocked on the door of room 64. Mom answered the door. Rachel was in a chair near Garfield's bed. She was holding his hand. Tears ran down her cheeks. She got up and hugged me. I wrapped my arms around her. "I nev...never meant to get him into it" she said. "It's ok" I said. "If he had not you might have died" I said. "I know I just don't want to lose him I love him to much" she said. "I known" I said. "Do you feel ok to go to school" I asked her. She looked at me "I guess" she said. "Ok good because tomorrow is Monday" I said. She rode home with me. Mom said she was going to stay with Garfield until morning. All night I heard Rachel scream and talk in her room. I could hear her shuffle and there she turned silent.
