I woke up the next morning to find that Cody had fallen out of the bed.

“Ughhhhh” he moaned squirming on the floor. I laughed and got up to help him.

“Are you okay?”  I asked and gave him my hand to help him get up. He didn’t take it but lay on the floor holding his arm. “Cody?”

Did I dream that he forgave me last night because I knew that he heard me but he wouldn’t answer. Wait. He fell out of my bed which means that he slept there last night so it couldn’t have been a dream.

“Yeahhh” he whispered. He must be in pain. He just lay there trying not to move because once he did it hurt.

“Are you okay?” I asked again with more urgency. I bent down beside him and grabbed his wrist. He howled in pain. “I’ll get my mum”

I ran out of the room and into mummy’s room. She hadn’t left for work yet because it was still dark outside and she doesn’t leave until it gets light. It was only about four am.

“Mum” I shook her awake. “I think Cody had broken his arm or something.”

She shot up right away with wide eyes and ran into my room to find that Cody was still lying on our bedroom floor holding his arm. She got over to him and knelt down beside him. He fallen off the side that his bed wasn’t on and just fell on the hard wooden floor.

“Honey, what hurts?” she soothed him.

“My wrist.” He grunted sounding in real pain. Com one when I broke my arm it wasn’t that sore. My mum tried to get him to move his wrist but it just wasn’t happening.

“Right I’m going to have to take you to A&E to get that checked out.” She said trying to get hi to stand up. “Toni go tell Adam were we are going and that he better be at school by the time we get back because by the looks of it we’ll be at the hospital for a while.”

I grabbed my shoes and put them on as I told Adam what mum told me too. I grabbed my coat and followed her and Cody out into the car. I was early in the morning so there was no traffic. I sat in the back with Cody, he’d refrained from grunting in pain but I knew that it hurt, I’d done it before. I started to feel the chill in the night air, I didn’t get time to put on proper clothes so I was still in my pyjamas and too was Cody. He noticed that I was shaking.

“Come here” he whispered. He opened him arms while trying not wince. I climbed into them and he set his wrist on my lap and I tried my best not to move. I saw my mum looking at us through the wing mirror with a wondering look on her face. It was a short drive to the hospital but I found myself getting lost in the colours of the street lights whizzing past above us.

We finally got to A&E in what was minutes but felt like hours especially in my dazed state of being half awake and half asleep. We got into A&E and there wasn’t a doctor/nurse in sight.

“Go you two and sit in the waiting room while I got find someone.” She said while walking away her long coat flapping after her. We made our way through the dark dingy corridors until we got to the waiting room. I almost didn’t want to sit in the chairs because I knew from experience that this is where drunks and wasters usually spent their nights at the weekend. I gave in and sat not wanting to be standing for ages.

“You okay?” I asked sounding like a broken record.

“I’ll be fine as long as you don’t leave me” he said looking around not liking the thought of being here. I took his non injured arm and held his hand. “How come you weren’t in second class yesterday?”

What to I tell him? I knew he was going to ask this question but I had never thought of the answer. I can’t tell him that I went to meet up with Alli...
