My Escape

Chapter 8

**Amelia's P.O.V**
I wake up in a daze.
**Where am I at? Am I at home laying on my bed?**
When my eyes finally focused, I realized I wasn't in bed at home. I was in a hospital. I lifted my right arm to realized that IV's were hooked into it.
"Ouch," I said holding my arm while clenching my teeth together.
A lady with hospital scrubs walked in as I laid back down.
"Well, good morning Ms. Amelia. How are you feeling?" She asked me re-adjusting my arm and tubes.
"Where is my dad at ma'am?" I asked ignoring her question.
"He's out in the waiting room." She said writing on her fancy little clipboard.
"Can you bring him in here? I want to talk to him." I say quietly.
"I suppose I could." Is all she said as she walked out of the door.
Once the door clicked shut, I rolls over to look at my arms to see brusies and cuts. I say up,  just enough to see my legs and one of them had a cast on it. The other one is black and blue with mutiple scrapes and cuts. I then heard footsteps and immediatly laid back down. That's when I heard the door get pushed open. I heard two voices. One belonged to my dad, and the other belonged to Jane.
"Hey kiddo." My dad said to me.
"We brought you some flowers. You got hurt pretty bad, what happened?" Jane and my father said in sync.
I just sobbed. I cried for so many reasons. I cried for my mother leaving us behind. I cried for my brother and how much I missed him. I cried because I have been getting beaten up for so long at school. I just didn't say anything in fear of getting in trouble. I can't stand this.
"Its okay, let it out." Jane said while rubbing my shoulder.
"Ouch." I said.
"I am so sorry!!" She said pulling away fast while apologizing.
"Ha. I got you." I said slowly laughing at her.
"Good one!" My dad said high fiving me.
"That was not funny! You scared me!" She said huffing and puffing.
"Fine I am sorry." I said with a straight face.
"Ha! Got you back!!" She laughed so hard she started to cry.
"Oh shut upp." I said to her.
That's when the nurse walked into the room.
"She Is free to go. Her crutches will be coming on shortly. I'm gonna take out her IV's." She said making her way to my right side of my bed.
She began pulling out the IV's one by and all you could hear was ow ow ow ow ow ow ow. She was nice and out some Paw Patrol bandaids on where the IV's were. It made me immediatly happy.
I know that sounds weird but I don't care. The nurse told me I could go change. She handed me my clothes and I hobbled my way to the restroom to where I changed.
How did it feel you may ask? It. Hurt. Like. Hell.
With my legs, I couldn't put on my pants did to the cast and bruises. So I want back to my room to see the nurse talking to my dad. I butted in and asked for sweat pants.
She tossed me a pair and I slipped them on. When I finally got all of my clothes on I went to the sink and cupped my hands and got water. I splashed my face with the ice cold water and looked in the mirrior.
**Ugh, I look Horrible**
That's when I heard a few knocks.
"Yes?" I said questionly.
"Its me, Jane, can I come in?" She said.
"Yeah." I walked over to the door and unlocked it to let her in.
"If you want any makeup, I have some here. I bought you some conceler, powder, eyeliner, mascara and Eye-shadow." She said handing me a bag.
"Did you buy this for me?" I said slightly shuddering.
"Yeah,  I know it isn't very much but, it's the least I could do for you." She said blushing.
"T-thank you." I said starting to apply the makeup to my bruised face.
