Adalyn's POV
{2 weeks later}

I wake up to pumpkin licking my face. I start to laugh. "Pumpkin, do you have to go outside?" I ask her before I get up and put my uggs on. She hops down from my bed and runs downstairs. I grab my crutches. And start to head downstairs. Pumpkin waits patiently by the door for me to let her outside. I have her trained pretty well she know the boundaries so I can let her outside but I still have to watch her. I let her outside and I stand on, the porch to wait for her. I get ankle cast off today and there going to do a x-ray to see if my ribs are healed.

Pumpkin starts to run up to the door and up the few steps to the door step. "You ready to go in?" I ask he before I open up the door. I give her a treat and she goes and lays on her dog bed. The house phone starts to ring. "Hello?" I say into the phone. "Is this Ms. Adalyn Parker?" "Speaking who is this?" I ask. "Captain Clarke." "Oh I'm sorry I didn't recognize your voice, do you have anything?" I ask. "Yes we do we have Daniel but we want to question you to clear up a few things " "When?" I ask. "In about 1hr." I look at the clock. 10 am. 11 am. "Okay, I'll stop by before my doctor appointment." I say. We say our good byes before handing up. I make my self a pot of coffee, I'll need it today. 

My Dad walks into the kitchen from downstairs. "I'm surprised your up." He says as he pours himself a cup of coffee. "Pumpkin woke me." I say her little ears perk up by, the mention of her name. "Who called?" "Clark he wants to ask me a few more questions." I say. His expression hardens. "It's probably over something Daniel brought up." He says before taking a drink of his coffee. "Okay, I'm going to get a shower and then get ready." I say. "What time?" My Dad asks me. "They want to meet at 11." I say as I head towards the stairs. I've gotten pretty good at climbing the stairs with my crutches. Pumpkin follows me up the stairs. I love this pup and Nate even more for getting her for me. I get a quick shower before I put on my skinny jeans that have different colored denim on the knees, my PINK shirt with a floral design in the center and my peach vans. I braid a section of my hair back into a pony tail and leave some of my baby hairs out. I do light make up and put on my heart ring.

I can wear shoes on my one foot so I have one shoe on and I'm caring my other as I walk down the steps. Pumpkin walks down the step behind me. She's only 4 months old and knows so much. I hear the shower turn on. "Guess Dad's getting a shower." I say to myself as I turn on the tv. There's a knock at the door. I hobble to the door to get it. I open the door and see Nate standing there with Maverick and flowers. "What are those for?" I ask as I point to the flowers. "You and I thought I would join you on your doctor's appointment." He says. I push a peice of hair out of my eyes. "You should be in school." I say as I move aside to let him in. Pumpkin lets out a few barks of happiness. "Hey Pumpkin." Nate says as he stoops down to pet her. Maverick comes bounding over to me. "Hey baby. How's the good boy?" I ask as I pet him. He nussles closer to me, I scratch behind his ears. Nate shuts the door and I move to sit back on the couch. 

"How you feeling today?" He asks as he sits down beside me. I shrug. "A lot better, a little sore but not as bad as before." I say. I place my head on his shoulder. "How did you cut today?" I ask him. "I went to the first 4 periods and I cut out during lunch. Your the only thing I enjoy about school. Oh and Principle Brice wants you to finish your speech." I nod. "It's almost finish I just have to figure out how I want to end it." "Yeah, I think no mater how you end it, it will be amazing." I smile. "Thank you." I tell him before I give him a kiss on the cheek. "Adalyn you ready to go to the station?" Dad asks me as he comes down stairs. "Yeah, Nate's going to be taging along is that okay?" I ask him. "Sure how long did you stay for?" My Dad asks him. "4 periods and I cut during lunch." I stand up and Nate hands me my crutches.
