I rode with Grant to the hospital. He was still unconscious. They thought he could have a concussion.
We got to the hospital they took him into a room so they could check him out, to see what's wrong.
I stood outside in the waiting room. They had called Grants mom, she was supposed to be here anytime now. I sat there and waited for about ten minutes. She finally came.
"Where's Grant?" She asked with a bit of urgency in her usual calm.
"He's in the room over there." I said pointing to the room that they took Grant into. "He's been in there for about ten minutes."
"Ok, thank you for waiting with him." She said as she gave me a hug. I've known her since I was born. She is like my second mom.
"Mrs. Benson?" A doctor asked as he walked out of the room where Grant was taken.
"Yes?" Grants mom said as she stood up.
"He is awake. He has a miner concussion. We want to keep him here over night, just to make sure he really is ok. Then if he is fine like we think he should be, he can go home tomorrow." He said with a smile.
"May we see him?" Mrs. Benson asked.
"Are you a family member?" He asked me.
"No she isn't, but she is basically family." Mrs. Benson said hoping that I could go in.
"I'm sorry if she's not family she can't go in." He said apologetically.
"Oh. That's ok I'll call my mom so she can come get me." I said trying to make Mrs. Benson feel better that I can't see him. "I'll text him later."
"Are you sure?" She asked.
"I'm sure." I said with a smile.
"Ok. Do you want to wait for a few minutes and I'll give you a ride?" She asked in her normal sweet calm tone.
"No thanks. I want to talk to my mom about tonight." I said as she smiled and gave me a hug.
I called my mom. She said she would be there in about ten minutes, and that she would text me when she got there.
After about tens minutes, just like she said, she texted me. I walked out and met her out front.
"What happened?" She asked concerned. I knew she would be. I told her I would tell her what happened when she picked me up, instead of on the phone.
"Grant..." I broke down.
