Sam's Step Sister

Chapter 8

Santana's POV:

It's been a week since I've seen Brittany, the last time I saw her was the morning we dropped her off at the dance studio. I've texted her a bunch of times but no reply. Sam was acting really strange as well, he barely said a word to me, not that I'm complaining but still. Sam hadn't text me either which was new, he always messaged me everyday. We are on summer vacation so I haven't seen much of anybody. I'm worried about Brittany though, she's never ignored me before. Maybe she's having second thoughts about this relationship? Maybe she doesn't love me anymore?

I was walking through the grocery store looking for those Galaxy cookies so I can sit and eat my worries away when I saw Shannon, Brittany's Mom in the sandwich section. I bit my lip and hesitantly walked over.

"Hi, Mrs Pierce?" She turned around with a sad smile.

"Hey, Santana" I smiled in confusion of why she was so sad.

"I was wondering if Brittany was around? She hasn't text me in a while and I was confused as to why-" I stopped when she furrowed her eyebrows "What? What's wrong?" I asked quickly, sensing something was wrong.

"Oh honey, I thought Sam told you?"

"Told me what?"

"Brittany's in the hospital" She said looking down.

"Since when? What happened?" I asked frantically.

"Come, Ill tell you on the way" I nodded, we didn't say another word to each other while she was paying for her food.

I was angry, I was upset, I was worried. Why hadn't Sam told me? What was wrong with him? What happened to Brittany?

We got into the car in silence, just a few bags rustling.

"What happened?" I whispered.

"She was walking home because we couldn't pick her up after her dance class, she was crossing the road when a car hit her, It didn't hit her hard at all, just enough to knock her over, But she hit the corner of her head on the road" She took a deep breath.

"So, she's just in the hospital being looked over?"

"She's uh, in a coma at the moment, the impact, trauma or whatever" My heart stopped. Coma? "She had a concussion but it was too much so-" She trailed off.

"Oh My God" I repeated over and over again.

"I would've called but Sam said you didn't come visit because you were helping your Mom in the garden" She looked to me sympathetically. Tears were welling in my eyes.

"He didn't say anything" I said with a clenched jaw.

"Kurt's been with her mostly, and Quinn but I'm not sure you know who that is, everyone's just been coming in and out. She was meant to wake up yesterday, the doctor said this was only a mild injury but she didn't" Her phone went off, signalling she had a message "Could you check that for me?" She asked politely.

"Sure" I nodded sniffling and wiping a tear that had fell.

Kurt Hummel-

I had to go home, Quinn is still with her, Text me if anything happens. Take care.

I read out the message and put the phone back in the middle compartment. We sat in silence the rest of the way there. Once we got into the hospital I sped walked to Brittany's room, I opened the door to see Brittany laying in bed with a tube in her nose and hand, her eyes were closed and she was paler than usual. I bit my lip and clamped my eyes shut. I walked in and sat beside her. Not noticing another Blonde in the room until she spoke.
