Chapter 27: News

Charlotte's P.O.V

I lay in the hard, white bed of the hospital's. Urgent care.

Only little bits and pieces were coming back to me, I must have something for glass, seemingly because I keep smashing into mirror's like it's my magnet. I was so angry at myself, how could I be so selfish! I now have NO chance to go anywhere.

The clock glared at me, it was already 6:12 in the morning, and it was still dark outside. It is thursday morning. Last night was the most excruciating pain I have ever felt.

Actually, Ha-- nevermind, I have felt way worse.

Whatever though, I'm not going to just lay here woping around, I had already done that years ago, and it did no help.

What I don't get is how did I get here? Was is by chance that paramedics just magically came for me? Or was I just that ninja to drag myself here? Or--did someone take me here?

My head was getting cloudy, and I closed my eyes and welcomed the pain.

I hated this.

Being so weak, cut up and bruised.

I didn't give a shit! I needed to get out of here, i'm not crazy. I'm way far from it, and people will guess that I am insane for trying to hurt myself, probably are guessing that I will go to an insane asylum.

I cried.

Then stopped, because i'm fine. Better than fine, I felt relieved over myself.

Switching on the small, square television, I relaxed. I flitched automatically, my back was sore. The news were on, and I just listened, it hurt to focus on the small screen. The news, wonderful thing, taught me the truth about Kayden's jailing. And Saturday's sentencing. And I'm supposed to be there!

Damn.

I tried to listen to what they were reporting, something about a car crash, weather, a concert, Justin Bieber, I groaned.

"--a young women named Charlotte Gregory was brought to the hospital and Mr. Kianata the owner of the building she broke into and smashed herself, will be not pressing any charges. Her brother found her in the building cut up and bruished from breaking the wall mirror, and is in critical conditions. More to be reported--" I switched it off. I hated hearing about myself, just like the night my parents died I couldn't stand looking at the news or the sympathetic looks people gave me. It just tore me apart even more.

I was bored, and tired, there was nothing to do in this god damn place, I sipped water and watched the Cartoon Network and the Sports Channel. Time passed by so slowly, and I wanted to crawl out of my skin.

Then, I heard a knock on the door, and my heart jolted forwards, a nurse walked in with a few people trailing in behind her. She smiled at me, and placed a tray of food on the small table next to me. I didn't glance at it, I didn't feel very hungry.

I felt a nudge on my leg, Blake sat next to me. I saw Preston, Alex, and Tyler as well.

"How are you feelings."

I scoffed, "I'm on Cloud-9!"

"I'm serious Char, how are you?" Blake's sad face made my bad mood melt away.

I looked down, a my eyes burned with tears, "I'm so sorry, I don't know what got into me, I just was so angry and--"

"Shhhh, you're okay. Could you tell us what happened?" Tyler asked, he was suddenly next to me now. My vision blurred, I felt so weak.

"Kayden." I whispered, and I chose not to look at them.

Someone tilted my face up, and I could barely tell that it was Alex looking at me through the tears. "Kayden? The one that kidnapped you?"

That was it, that set me on edge. Anger was bubbling inside me, and I could now see him perfectly, no more tears to hide me. "kidnapp me?" my tone was dangerously low, Alex's eyebrows shot up in defense, and he opened his mouth to reply, "Kidnapp me!? Are you crazy! I went with him, away from you, and this family! To save my siblings, my realy siblings, and to get away from a crazy man that ruined my innocense and a child. Sounds anything like my life? My messed up crazy life, the more I look in the mirror, the more I realise how much I am like my parents. The one's that gave me fucking up!" The anger was now gone, and I was left with grief. It ate away at me, leaving a huge hole in my chest.

Suddenly, everything became too much. I couldn't control my breathing, and my eye sight shifted, then I couldn't feel my body and my head was heavy. And I passed out, embracing the darkness. It was better than having to face the light.
