A few hours later.
10am.
"Tori...Tori...hey Tori..." A voice was wakening her. Tori frowned as she slowly opened her eyes and the hospital room appeared. "Hm?!" Tori gasped a little as she woke, and saw Michael lying sleeping. Looking around, she turned and saw Luke standing beside her.
Sighing a little, she closed her eyes for a second before looking at him.
"What...whats wrong?" She asked him, tiredly. "You've been here all morning. Do you want to go back to the hotel and get some sleep?" He asked her. "No. I'm fine" She shook her head, as she looked back to Michael. "He'll be okay for a few hours...why dont you head back and get freshened up?" He told her. "What? Like how left your sweet stench in your party clothes?" Tori mocked as she looked at him.
"Sorry...look I'm fine" She told him again. "Not leaving him in the hands of you right now...look where he is" She sighed. "We didnt think..." He began. "Just...it doesnt matter. I'm staying here" She looked at him. Luke nodded before walking out. Tori sighed as she looked back at Michael.
After an hour, Tori stood up and looked at Michael as she left the room. Walking out, she rubbed her eyes before looking down the corridor. She saw everyone sitting there except Luke, but including Bryana. Sighing, she watched as Spencer and Hanna got up and walked up to her.
"Hey, you okay?" Spencer asked, looking at her tired friend with eyeliner under her eyes from the night before. "What is she doing here?" Tori asked calmly. "She's been here with Ashton....they've refused to leave you here alone with him." Hanna smiled. "She's nothing to do with him" Tori shook her head. "Luke's just left...the other one was here. Low key moaning and groaning she wanted to leave, so her lap dog followed her" Hanna mocked.
"Hanna...dont..." Spencer told her off quietly, shaking her head. Looking up, she saw Ashton walking towards her with Bryana beside him. "Ugh, here we go" She sighed. "Hey, you okay?" Ashton asked with a smile. "Hi...is everything okay?" Bryana asked her. Tori took a breath, but stopped mid way as she turned to Bryana.
"Okay...is everything okay?" She repeated. "No..! Everything isnt okay! Michael, is lying in a hospital bed in here, hooked up to a needle getting fluids pumped through him. He's on strong painkillers right now, I'm zombie-fied with tiredness, an old friend is a complete dick head right now, some people priories are in other places and heads are up others asses! So no! Everything is not okay...Bryana!" Tori told her frustrated, annoyed with her teeth gritted.
Turning around, she headed towards the bathrooms before walking in. "She gets...really cranky when she's tired" Spencer backed her up. "Dont worry..." Ashton nodded, knowing. "I'm sorry, I didnt mean to upset her" Bryana shook her head, with slight worry in her eyes. "She'll be fine" Hanna nodded, before the girls headed into the bathroom after her.
Tori stood at the sinks, sobbing. "Oh sweetie" Hanna hugged her from behind. "That was uncalled for...but it just came out" Tori told the girls. "We know, dont worry." Spencer nodded, as she rubbed her hand up and down Tori's back softly. "Your still not blaming yourself are you?" Hanna looked at her. "I have no choice" She scoffed, sniffing.
"It is not your fault!" Hanna told her. "You didnt put the drinks in his hands" She told her. "Yeah, but I told his brain too" Tori turned to them. "You didnt!" Hanna told her. "Stop blaming yourself, Michael would tell you the same" Hanna half smiled. "He will tell you." Spencer smiled and nodded. "Ahhh" Tori sighed as she rubbed her eyes.
Taking a paper towel, she rinsed it under the cold water before dabbing her eyes.
"You okay?" Spencer smiled. "Hm. Yeah, I'm fine." Tori nodded. "I'm not. I havent slept properly and in desperate need of a shower" Hanna sighed. "Why dont you two head back to the hotel? Get cleaned up." Tori nodded. "We're not leaving you" Spencer told her. "No, seriously. I'm fine. You'll only be a couple hours. Dont worry about me" Tori nodded.
