Flashback:

I hear tires squeal outside and I run to my window. I see a body on the ground and a car that looked like it swerved.

I run downstairs and slam open the door. I don't care who I wake up.

I run out and I walk around the car. The body I saw made me scream and then faint.

Present:

I can hear voices, it sounds like 3 or 4 women and 3 guys. I feel a sharp pain in my head, right above my eye. Like I hit it on something.

'She should be waking up soon.' A guy says. 'She needs to be ok by Thursday morning though!' Another male voice says. 'Oh she will, don't worry.' The first voice says. 'Why exactly has she been in a coma?' A young female voice says. 'When she fainted, she hit her head on the fender of the car and then on the cement, causing her to get a concussion and go into a weeklong coma.'

I wake up in an unknown bed. I don't know where I am or what happened. Then, slowly, it all comes back to me. I wake up from a dream and am looking at pictures when I heard tires squeal outside. On the ground, by the car, is the very, very still body of my little brother. That's when I screamed and everything went black.

I'm guessing I'm in a hospital. "Hey, your awake." I hear. I sit up and see Luke. "Luke!" I say, but it sounded like a whisper. He comes over and I give him a huge hug. Bridget comes over and gives me a hug. I see my mom leave with the doctor. Typical. "Cameron?" I ask. The third person turns around. "How ya feelin?" He asks. "Like a jackhammers hammering my brain. "Thought so, don't worry, it should go down in a few days, just in time for magcon." "Wait, magcons not for another 2 weeks though!" "No, you were in a coma for a week... It's this weekend..." Bridget tells me. Then a girl comes from behind Cameron. "Who's that?" I nod to her. "That's Julia! She's my girlfriend." Cameron says. "She's really pretty." They both smile.

The doctor comes back in, once I do a few tests, your free to go, unless you show signs that you can't go, that is." He tells me. "One question... What's your name?" I ask. He chuckles. "I'm Dr. Tom, are you ready?" I nod.

Tom: "What is your name?"

Me: "Eleanor Marie cabret, but I go by Ella."

T: "when's your birthday?"

M: "November 18, 1995."

T: "what's your family members names?"

M: "Ethan, Emily, Elliot, and Richard."

"Alright, seems like everything's fine, so I'll leave you to get ready to leave." Dr. Tom says. "Wait! Is my brother all right?" "Yes, he's doing better, he's still in a coma, but he should be waking up very soon, give it a day or two, by the way, it's Friday, 11:32 am, I advise you to go home, and start up on your homework so you don't get too far behind." I nod, taking a deep breath. Dr. Tom leaves and I sit up, getting out of the bed. I shoo the boys out and Bridget hands me some of my clothes.

"So, how long have you and Cameron been dating?" I ask Julia. "My family owns a moving company, they used it, and I had gone over to help with my brother, and I ended up helping Cameron move all of his stuff and we just kinda hit it off and that night he asked me out and the next day we went on the date and yeah..." "Awwww!" Me and Bridget coo. Julia goes red in the face. Julia was shorter than me, but not by much, he had a darker blond hair that was down to right around her armpit and she was very pretty.

"So who's Elliot?" Cameron says, coming back in. "No one." I answer really fast. He just stares at me like, 'I'm gonna figure this out.' I gulp.
