Izzy Newman

"Hello?"

"Oh, thank God you picked up. Izzy, there's an emergency."

Amy had called me close to 12:30 am, with the sound of panic in her voice.

"It better be, you woke me up from my dream of Ashton-"

"You were having a wet dream about Ashton and I woke you up, I'm sorry, but this seriously is an emergency!"

"Okay, what is it?"

"I had to call 911 for Michael, he's unconscious, and the ambulance is on its way." Amy told me, and it sounded like she was on the verge of crying.

"Oh my gosh, Amy, how did this happen? Did you try calling his parents?" I asked frantically.

"I don't know their number, and Michael doesn't have his phone on him, I checked all his pockets. So, I thought to call you. Izzy, I'm really scared."

"Amy, it'll be okay, Michael's so strong, he'll be fine. Do you want me to come meet you at the hospital?"

"Yeah, please." Her voice was shaky.

"I'll call everyone else and see if they can come too, so we can all be there to support you."

"Thanks Izzy, you're the best, oh the ambulance is here, I'll see you at the hospital, bye."

"Bye. Oh wait!" I tried to catch her, but she had already hung up. She never told me how Michael had gone unconscious. I jumped out of my bed and turned on my lamp, on my bedside table next to me. I threw on a t-shirt and leggings as I called my boyfriend to tell him the news.

"Hi baby." Ashton answered sleepily. "What's up?"

"There's an emergency, babe. Amy called and said Michael's being taken to the hospital. Can you please come over and drive us both there?" I said, holding my phone between my ear and shoulder, struggling to pull on my Uggs.

"Of course, yeah! How did it happen?" He raised his voice, alarmed by the news.

"I don't know, all Amy said was that he was unconscious. I guess we'll find out more when we get there." I grabbed my hair brush and scrambled to get my hair looking at least decent, and then I put on a little lip gloss. What? I would been seeing my boyfriend, I wouldn't want to look like some wild beast.

"Okay, I'll be there in 10, see you soon, Princess."

"See you soon, I love you."

"I love you too, bye."

"Bye." I ended the call, and I ran down the hall to my parents room. My dad was fast asleep but my mom had her night light on and she was reading a book.

"Honey, what are you doing up? It's a little after 12:30 am!" My mom whispered.

"Mom, Amy just called me and said that Michael is being taken to the hospital. I'm not sure why, I just know that he's unconscious. Is it okay if Ashton comes over and takes us both to the hospital to check on him? I promise it won't be long, I'll tell Ashton to have me back before 2."

"Yes, of course! I trust Ashton to keep you safe, and tell Michael that we'll be praying for him to be okay when he wakes up."

"Thank you so much! I'm going to go wait for Ash downstairs."

"Okay, I'll see you in the morning."
