Roxy POV

I was waking up to this quiet chatter in the backround. I start to slowly open my eyes, but its kinda hard consideing I have this splitting headache and there is a bright white light shining in my eyes.

"Oh My Gosh.. my head hurts!"

"Hey she is waking up!" I couldn't tell who said it and then other people started to talk aswell. "Hey Roxy, honey... are you okay, are you awake?" I blink a few times so I can see properly then to realise it was my mother talking to me and that the rest of my family were standing there as well as Holly and her family and then this other tall blond guy that I don't recognise standing at a distance, but I am still so confused as to what I am doing here or what happened.

"What Happened? What are we doing here?" My mother then gave me a look of sympathy, sat down in the chair beside me and gabbed my hand.

"Its okay honey. There was just an accident at the park when you were walking home from school today. You were hit by a football and you fell and hit your head..." Then I interrupted her because I wasn't paying full attention because I was looking at the guy I didn't recgnise, because I was confused by his presence.

"Hey Mom. Who is that?" I gestured to the guy, and he finally looked up at me since I woke up.

"Oh right.."Mom said. "This is Ross. His siblings and him were the ones that were playing with the football that hit you in the park." Ross then waved to me awkwardly as well as confirming what my mother had just told me without saying a word. "So yeah, thats why you are at the hospital and you just woke up" Mom finished.

"Oh okay..." I don't really know what to say at this point.

"Well I think that we should find someone to see if you are allowed to go home." My mother said and with that she and everyone else walked out of the room.

"Hey where are you all going!" I said with a slight chuckle

"Don't worry we will be back soon..." Holly turned around and said. "I'm just glad that you are going to be okay." Then with that the room was empty except for me. Then I see that Ross guy talk to my mom through the window next to the door for my room before she walked off. Then a few seconds later I see the door open to reveal that guy with a look of sorrow on his face.

"Hi Roxy."

"Hi...Ross is it?"

"Yeah, it is..."He looked kind of nervous. "I just wanted to say that I am really sorry for all of this it was all my fault, I didn't mean for any of this to happen."

"Oh thanks for saying that, but you really didn't have to, really it's okay. I'm still here, I'm still breathing arnt I?" I said with a bit of laughter to lighten the mood.

"Yeah you are!" Ross said with with a smile. Seeing him smile has made me actually look at him and realise he is really cute!!!

"So..." I said to try to break the awkward silence that had just taken place.

"Why don't you tell me a little about yourself?" Ross said looking a bit more relaxed now.

"Well...I'm a junior in high school, I have been a dancer since I was just 3 years old... but I'm still not that great. I really don't have many friends, its realy only Holly, and you have met my family so yeah thats about it. Well now its your turn, tell me a bit about you."

"Ok, I'm 19 years old, I have graduated but i was home-schooled like of my older siblings. On the subject of siblings i have two older brothers Riker who is 23 and then there is Rocky he is 18, I also have an older sister Rydel she is 21, then I have a younger brother Ryland he is 17 and he goes to public school, it is actually the shcool that is down the road from the park where um...you know..."

"It's ok you can say it... I got hit in the head with a football, no big deal." I smiled at Ross and he smiled back. "Wait..." Then I remembered. "Does Ryland always wear snapbacks and beanies and wants to become a DJ one day?"

"Yeah. How did you know?" Then Ross scrunched up his face in confusion, which was pretty funny so I kind of giggled. "What are you giggling at?"

"Oh nothing... and I think I know that about Ryland because I think that I go to the same school He does or Ryland has a twin that is in my English class."

"So you go to Northridge High as well?"

"I sure do!" Then we both started to laugh. Next thing we know my parents have come back into the room and we go silent.

"Well it looks like you two get along pretty well," My mom chuckled. "Also the doctor said you are clear to go home!"

"Come on let's just pack up Roxy"s stuff." Dad said to mom.

"Here dad let me help." I started to get up.

"NO! You sit back down young lady." He almost made me jump in a fright he said it so sudden. "You need to rest."

"Okay, okay." I sat back down.

Ross then stood up. "I think it's time for me to leave, I'm so sorry again."

"Yeah you better be." Dad interjects.

"Dad!" I yell.

"Sorry Ross, he doesn't mean to be rude he is just really tired." My mom adds.

"It's ok Mrs Rae, I am going to head off now. Goodbye Mr and Mrs Rae."

"Goodbye Ross." Mom said for both her and dad.

"I guess I'll see you around then Roxy."

"Yeah I guess so. Bye Ross." I smiled at him.

"Bye Roxy." He returned the smile and left the room as we waved goodbye to eachother.

My parents had finished getting my stuff. Everyone else had already gone home except Jake and my parents. Then we went up to the desk and signed all the papers so I could be released. Once that was done then I could go home and start my two days of bed rest. YAY! thats just how I want to spend my weekend (note the scarcasm).
