She's that skater

Chapter 2- peace and white sheets

*beep* *beep* *beep*

Wow that's annoying.

I open my eyes to a bright room with doctors coming in and out of the room.

"She's awake" i hear a guy say

With that, a group of people who i've never seen before rush over to me. The nurse shoo's them away.

I try to get up but a forceful hand pushes down on my shoulder

"Don't. Lye down, you can't get up yet"

What's going on? I try to get the words out but i end up mumbling.

There's tubes around me

Machines beeping

Something weird attached to my finger

White bed sheets over me making me feel quite hot and stuffy.

"You rolled down the stairs whilst you was skating and here you are now, in hospital. We will need to contact your parents soon, so what's your name?"

I sigh. If they call my so called parents i will have to go home which will equal to beatings. Not from my mother, she will just ban me from anything with wheels like she did with Eric. Oh if only she knew what that kid does behind her back.

I shake my head weakly. Grabbing a tube which leads to the mask around my face, i tug it down.

"You can't" i whisper shakily

"Why not?" The cute guy asks

"I don't have parents, in fact i don't have a family, i'm a run away" i half lied

He sighs and hangs his head low

I change the subject by asking for his name.

"Blake."

"Is that it?" I chuckle

"What else do you want me to say?"

I gently throw my head back.

"I don't know.. Introduce yourself maybe?"

Sighing, he parts his lips, ready to speak

"We will need to stitch up a few wounds and we're done, we won't be too long but first we need to call your parents" a doctor strides to the side of my bed, looking at me with his head tilted.

Blake tells the doctor what i told him.

I feel guilty for lying but its for the best. The best for me and for my future. Ok i'm thinking too far ahead.
The doctor said they can't do anything unless there's an adult, you know to give my background information and all that boring stuff.

Blake walks out the room with his phone by his ear.

I slowly drift off, having a dream about.. Well you can guess.

The X Games of course!!!
The crowd of hundreds of people cheering and the odd few booing. The judges jotting things down on paper. The commentator commenting. The skaters watching and evaluating how they could beat each other. Gliding across the ramps. Impressive tricks. Sound of the helmets click.

I can just breathe in the whole atmosphere.

"Yes doctor that's fine" a classy women entered whilst talking to the doctor

Blake jogs beside me

"Go along with it, my mum is acting as if she's your mother so you can get out of here" i don't say anything, just give him a thankful smile.

-------------------

A couple of hours passed and i'm now sitting in the back of Blake's mother's car.

"So i hear you're a run away gal" Blake's mum drops her shoulders

"Muuuum" Blake groans

"Are you being serious!?"

She goes silent and stops at the red light. Looking back at me she smiles and pats my knee

"You know, i ran away from home when i was 13, it was scary, not just for me but for everyone around me"

She turned back into her seat and started to drive.

It was quite... Too quite.

Blake's mum dropped us back off at the skate park but unfortunately i can't skate for another week until my stitches have healed. I don't know how i'm going to cope.

We sat down on a ramp.

"So you going to introduce yourself skater boy?" I said with a smirk

"There's not much to say apart from I'm Blake, 17, crazy about skating, my dad's in prison and i'm in a committed relationship with a girl called Talia"

I ignored the information he gave me about himself apart from the bit about his dad...

"So why is he in prison? If you don't mind me asking"

"He was driving whilst drunk and crashed into 3 cars, 5 out of 8 people died so he got arrested for DUI and manslaughter"

A tear rolled down his cheek, leading to another one and another until he threw his head into my arms, bawling his eyes out. I simply hugged him and said probably one of the stupidest things, well i thought it was stupid, Blake thought otherwise.

"How about we go visit your dad?"
