11! My Cocky Rescuer.

"Tell me, Jagger. Did you walk him into the hospital?" I asked in a controlled voice, getting into the drivers seat of my convertible.

He got in next to me as Avery grabbed the back. The color drained from my face when he said, "Well, no, not me. I sent Victoria in there with him so I could come and get you and Avery."

I took a deep breath and closed my eyes. Pinching the bridge of my nose, I forced myself to calm down. It could be the right hospital, The Vales Hospital.

"Do you know the name of the hospital?" I asked him, crossing my fingers as I sped into town.

"No, but I know it sounded promising. Charlie, why are you acting so weird?" Jagger demanded, turning to face me.

I looked at him when we stopped at a red light. "There's two hospitals in York. The Vale Hospital and The Stonerm Hospital."

Jagger shrugged, not seeing the problem. "So?"

"The Vale Hospital is a true, healing place. The Stonerm Hospital is where a gang called the Monsters hang out." I explained, thinking about it making me go faster.

My tires squealed and Jagger frowned. "I'm sure I would've noticed if I dropped Rex and Victoria off at a gang hangout."

 I laughed bitterly. "That's the thing. You wouldn't have. No one ever does. The Stonerm Hospital is in better shape than the Vale Hospital, so why not just go there, right?"

"Are you asking us?" Avery joked from the backseat.

I scowled at the rearview mirror. "Shut up, Avery. Your girlfriend and my best friend's life may be at stake here!"

Avery shrugged and was about to reply when Jagger cut him off. "Hey, I thought I was your best friend!'

I giggled despite the situation and reached over to ruffle his hair. "Of course you are, Jaggy. Both of you are."

"Forgetting somebody?" a voice asked from the back.

I shot Avery a death glare, making him gape. "What, he can joke around but not me?" he asked incredulously.

I laughed. "It's the circle of friendship, Avery."

He reddened in annoyance, knowing full well I said it just to irk him. I stole his line from the other night, and he knew I did it just to annoy the hell out of him.

And it was working.

I decided to go to Stonerm first. As I pulled into the parking lot, I heard a loud gulp. I glanced at Jagger in surprise. "Was that your throat?!" I asked, starting to laugh.

He shot me a glare. "Nows not the time. I recognize this hospital."

Now it was my turn to gulp.

I cleared my throat and unbuckled my seat belt to turn and look at both Jagger and Avery when I told them what was going to happen.

"Hey boys." I greeted, coming in confidently through the revolving doors.

Two gruff looing teenagers scrambled up from their perches on the sign in desk. I fluttered my fingers at them and were about to walk on when they appeared in front of me.

"Oh," I giggled, putting a hand to my lips as I waved again at them, twirling my hair with the same hand and twisting my heel. "We meet again."

Obviously, a girl has never hit on them before, because they were dumbfounded and I knew they were liking the attention of a pretty girl.
