The Dilemma

Chapter 6

I woke up in the hospital with a tube down my throat. I was about to start freaking out when my dad put his hand on mine.

"Carren, she's awake," dad whispered. Carren had tears in her eyes and dad went to get the doc.

"I want you to put a thumbs up or thumbs down for yes and no, ok?" The doctor said sweetly. I put a thumbs up to say I understand. 

"Are you feeling dizzy?" I put a thumbs down cause I wasn't. 

"Are you feeling faint?" I put thumbs down again.

"Are you feeling sleepy?" I put thumbs up. 

"Do you have a headache?" I put my thumb in the middle cause I sorta did and I sorta didn't. 

"You have four broken ribs. Does your ribs hurt?" I put a thumbs down. I pointed to the paper and pen. I wrote a question down to the doctor. 

"How long have I been asleep? Can I get this tube out of my throat before I pull it out? Can I have an explainatation on why I haven't healed already?" 

"You've been asleep for a month. You almost died when we did surgey to fix your ribs. We will get the tube out in a few minutes. You haven't healed yet because you haven't drank blood in a month. Do you remember how you broke your ribs?" I put a thumbs down and wrote. 

"Get this fucking tube out now! I will rip it out in a moment of you got pull it out now!!" He had my parents leave and carefully pulled out the tube. I couched about three times and he gave me a cup to drink some blood from. I downed it in three seconds and my throat healed. I felt a little better. Then I thought about how my ribs might have been broken and couldn't figure it out. I realized I was in the ICU.

"Have I been in a coma?" 

"Yes," the doctor said refilling my cup. 

"I don't remember anything." I said quitely. I knew I was in a hospital and my mind drew a blank on who the two people are. I remember no one, but myself. I downed ten more cups. I felt a little weak still, but my ribs are healed he said. They moved me to a normal room. Some guy came in. 

"Ash, the doctor told me you don't remember anyone. Do you know who I am?" he had a lady with him. I shook my head no. I remembered faces, but no names. I remembered one name, Justin. 

"I want to see Justin," I said to him. 

"I'm your father and his is Carren your step mom. I will go get Justin." Justin walked in after a few minutes. 

"What happened?" Justin asked me. 

"I don't know. I don't remember them breaking. I remember faces, but no names. I remember you though. I remember, Jayy and Andy. I don't remember anyone else. I know who I am." He hugged me tight. 

"Alec told me you went to bed for not feeling well. She went in after a few minutes and found you with blood all over you. They found finger prints of a guy on you. They said it was his blood all over you. His name is Drace Mento. They found evidance of rape. They say he tried to kill you." Justin said quitely.

I then remembered a guy waking me up, raping me, breaking my ribs because he couldn't get to my neck, I cut him with my nails, he bleed all over me, and he left right before I passed out. I looked down because he had a girl with him. I said her name, Emma, to call him off of me. She told me he will kill me next time and will kill the werewolf I was dating.

I held Justin close. I remembered her and everyone else now. 

"My mother had Drace try to kill me and he will try again. He will come after you."
