RAYNE POV

"Rayne needs her sleep. She was up until midnight." Jinxx said.

"She Skyped me." Jinxx added.

"Ohhhhh...." CC said quietly.

"She's also only 'half' asleep." I said smiling and opening my right eye.

"Hey." Ashley said smiling.

"Ciao." I said laughing.

"Still speaking Italian?" Jake asked walking in the room with some pizza.

"Still eating pizza?"
He just responded with a chuckle as he took another bite.

A nurse walked in with a cart.

"I see your awake." She said with a smile.

"Half awake. Half asleep." I muttered rubbing my eyes.

"Could you rate your pain on a scale of one to ten?"

"Ummmm.. Maybe a nine." I said after a few seconds.

"Your strong. Do you want to know how I know?" The nurse asked putting a needle into one of the tubes.

"You have three shattered ribs and a cracked sternum. Every breath is comparable with an explosion of pain. You also have a hairline fracture on your jaw. So when you moved your jaw to speak you experienced pain that should have been a ten. But you gave it a nine."

"I've been through a lot, but I've never needed a brace for my chest." I said laughing.

Then I took in a sharp breath.
"Ow."

"These are pain relievers. Take these with this." She said handing me a cup containing two pills and another with orange juice.

"Thanks." I said taking the pills.

"When can I go home?"

"You for sure need to spend another night, but if you keep this up you'll be going home by tomorrow afternoon." She replied before walking away.

"Yay!" CC said clapping his hands.

"I'm going to the cafeteria. You want anything?" Andy asked.

"Can I have a chicken sandwich? The soup they give me tastes like metal."

"One chicken sandwich coming up." Andy said laughing and walking out the door followed by Jinxx.

"How's Killer?" I asked Ashley grabbing his hand.

"He's fine. Just a small chip on his rib." Jake said taking another bite of pizza.

"He's doing better than me." I said with a smile.

"Well, to be honest you're getting better. When they first brought you in you were a bloody mess." CC said causing Jake to hit the back of his head.

"Ow!"

"I'm sure I was." I said smiling  "What's the word on my parents." I added with anger.

"They're facing twenty years for beating you and that man got an extra five for throwing Killer." Ashley said looking at a bird outside my window.

"Thanks for not calling them my mom and dad." I said half smiling.

"Why would I call them your parents. Parents are supposed to care for their children, not beat the living shit out of 'em." Ashley said looking back at me.

"Your sandwich madame'." Jinxx said walking in.

"And we also got you a pudding cup." Andy added smiling.

"Thanks." I said grabbing the sandwich and wasting no time tearing into it.

"The food must really suck, huh?" Andy added pointing to my soup bowl from last night.

"Yeeeash." I said with a full mouth.

NEXT DAY

"You should probably catch up on the album." Ashley said following me to the exit.

"Probably." I said walking a little faster.

"Why are you walking so fast! We have all day." CC asked walking faster to keep up.

"Juliet and I are going dress shopping today!" I said excitedly.

"I thought you didn't like dresses." Ashley said almost poking my stomach, but poking my arm instead.

"Not for me, for her!" I said laughing.

Click

I turned to see Andy with his camera out.
"Why can't I ever remember to turn off the volume?" He said to himself.

When we got into the car I felt my phone vibrate.

Andy Black @andybvb

@raynebvb is finally heading home after two weeks in the hospital. No worries, We're going to get the album done on time with plenty of hard work.

I couldn't help but chuckle. When did he change his name to Andy Black?

After three hours I finally found the perfect dress for Juliet.
Then I was picked up by Andy to work on the album.

Today was a really crazy day.
