*Hi guy's I hoped you liked the surprise form the last chapter. Remember to vote and comment!*

Chloe's POV:

I sat, not knowing how to react. I lost all feeling. Brooke and Paige started crying to and they rushed up to me and pulled me into a gigantic hug. Tears trickled down the side of my face and I could taste the salt. We were led to a taxi that took us ti the hospital. I wasl laying down on Paige's and Brooke's laps and both of them were stroking me. We all were in our dance clothes, because despite the tragedy, dance is dance. We were allowed to be a bit late, so whoopidy doo. We arrived and I sprinted to the room, Paige and Brook couldn't even keep up. I burst into the room and my dad is already in there. I go to hug him, but he just ignores me. I look at my mom and she is sleeping, with blood all over her body and she is hooked up to all of these machines. I cry and cry and cry. Soon after Kelly, Josh,M Melissa and McKenzie show up, but no Maddie. Apparently she had better things to do, but that's ok I didn't want her hear anyway. Kelly gave me a massive hug as did Melissa, all of us were crying, but everybody kept on checking on me asking if I was ok. I hadn't said a single word since I entered the room. I was just praying she would be ok. My phone kept on going off, with my school friends saying that they hoped everything would be ok. We got back from dance and I rushed back into the room before the others had even entered the building. Nothing had changed since we left. Good, soon my mom would wake up.

It was late at night and everybody else was asleep. Brooke and Paige were hugging me, and it was nice to be warm. The room itself was cold, dark and just eerie. I hated it here I just want to leave with my mom and dad and go home. Well that would be hard, because my dad had already left me and gone home. I was just thinking what I would do when my mom woke up, trying to stay positive when I hear beeping. My mom had just gone flat line. I screamed for a nurse and everybody woke up. Then I started having a panic attack. I couldn't breathe properly. We were rushed out of our room and everybody just told me to take deep breaths. It wasn't working, I screamed before I fell to the floor.

I woke up with everybody around me, the girls were so happy to see me. I hugged them close. "I love you guys so much, where is my mom?" I asked smiling at everybody. They all frowned and sighed. The doctor walked over to me. "No, no, oh god no. No no no no no no no no!!" I scream. The doctor doesn't even need to tell me what happened, I already know. I yelled and screamed and ran out of the room. I got some strange looks from people. I made it outside of the hospital where I collapsed on the floor. Brook and Paige grab me and whisper, "It's ok, it's ok." We signed out of the hospital and I was taken back to my house. When I arrived, I started to go upstairs slamming my feet on the ground, when my dad appeared. He was wearing a dirty tank top and some worn jeans. He stank of liqueur and smoke. In his hands he held a belt. "Where were you?" I asked getting scared. This was not the dad I knew. "Shut up you bitch!" he screams. I can't hold back the tears. "YOU GOT HER KILLED!" What was he talking about? "SHE WAS GOING TO GET YOU A GIFT, TO BE SORRY FOR THE ARGUMENT YOU HAD EARLIER YOU LITTLE FUCK!" He hit me in the head with the belt and pain exploded through my temples. My nose starts bleeding and my whole face stings. He repeatedly hit me all other my body and I screamed and cried. He muffled my mouth so no one could hear. I tried biting his hand, but that just annoyed him and he grabbed a hammer and whacked my foot.

*This was a pretty emotional chapter, I hoped you enjoyed it. I have found a perfect route for this story to take*
