Chapter 8
I hit the water and a flashback of that day came back, instantly making me freeze.I tried moving my arms or legs but couldn’t feel them.I could tell I was sinking, wasn’t I supposed to float?I closed my eyes and tried to hold my breath, but I couldn’t hold it for very long.
I heard crashes of waves before blacking out completely.

Opening my eyes I was blinded by the whiteness.I looked over seeing Chase sitting in the chair next to me holding my hand while asleep.I squeezed my fingers causing Chase to jump up and look at me.I smiled at his bed head, but at the same time I was angry because he looked like he hadn’t got any sleep.
“Have you got any sleep?” I asked.
He chuckled, “I’m fine Zoey, the question is, are you?”
He got down on the floor putting his arms on my bed looking straight into my eyes.
“I’m fine,” I said crossing my arms.
He smiled and grabbed my hand stroking his thumb along it.
I looked at him, “How long have I been out?” I asked.
He sighed, “Only one night.”
“Oh,” was all I could say.
He nodded before the door swung open and all the guys piled in.
“Zoey!” I heard Jason yell.
I looked up at him and gave him a small smile.They all stood around my bed with flowers, bears and balloons.I looked over all of them; they looked like Chase, but not as bad.
“I think you guys need to get some sleep,” I said.They gave me smiles and I felt better about the fact they hadn’t got much sleep.
“So when do I get out of here?” I asked.
“The doctor needs to come back and check you out and make sure you are fine, but as soon as I sign the release papers, you are free to go,” My dad said coming to the front.I nodded and the door opened again.
“Glad to see you’re up Miss Dunham,” the doctor said.Everyone looked over at him.
He looked up from his clipboard,“Oh, well I will need to ask you some questions…in private,” He said looking from me to everyone else.
They quickly left the room, everyone but Chase that is.
The doctor looked over at Chase expecting him to leave, “Goahead, I’m not leaving,” Chase said.
The doctor nodded his head and started asking questions like, ‘How do you feel’, ‘What was the last thing you remember’, etc.
He looked in my eye with a light and tested my reflexes before saying, “Ok Zoey, well you seem to be in perfect condition, so you are free to go once a parent or guardian signs these release papers.”He handed me some papers and turned, walking out the door.I got up off the bed and walked to the bathroom grabbing my clothes from Chase.
I quickly changed and came back out, walking to Chase and took his hand in mine.
“Ready?” He asked.
I nodded and we walked out the door, only to find all the boys right outside the door.I continued to walk right out the door pulling Chase behind me.Outside I realized Chase couldn’t take me home, since he wasn’t allowed on ‘Our pack land’ as Jason calls it.I turned to him, and could tell Jason was waiting for me by the truck.
