Stacey-

 I sat up in my bed, awoken by the sound of a ringing phone, my ringing phone. I reached  for it and put it up to my ear.

“Hello?” I said groggily

“Stacey? It’s Cameron” said the other line of the phone

“Cameron? It’s 11 o’clock at night on a weekday! What’s wrong?” I answered quite pissed

“My mum’s in hospital, I didn’t know who else to call” He choked out

“Oh My God! Is she alright?”

“I-I- I don’t know… They’re still doing CPR on her. She’s not breathing Stace.”

“Ok, I’ll be over in 20 minutes”

“No Stacey, it’s alright you don’t have to come down here”

“Cameron, I’m coming down to the hospital”

“Alright, we’re in emergency, I’ll wait for you out the front.”

“Ok, I’ll be there soon” I hung up and quickly got dressed into some jeans and a tank top. I didn’t worry about my makeup and I just pilled my messing, un-brushed hair in a bun on the top of my head. I crept into my parents room and woke up my father,

“Stacey? What’s wrong, Darling?” he asked through closed eyes

“My friends mum is in the hospital, I’m going over to comfort him.”

“Him?” he questioned suddenly fully awake

“Yeah, his name is Cameron. So can I go?” I asked

“Alright, are you right to take my car?”  He said settling back down into his pillow

“Yeah, I’ll be alright Daddy. I love you.” I whispered as I leant over to give him a kiss on the cheek

“I love you too, Possum.” He muttered as I walked out of the room. I grabbed my purse and phone then made my way outside, locking the door behind me.

I hopped into the car and put the keys into the ignition, I pulled out of the driveway and drove towards the hospital
