Chapter Twenty-Five
It’s been almost seven months since Harry and I got together, and life is amazing! My sweet sixteen is next week and im so excited for my party. I had been planning it with the girls since my fifteenth birthday last year. I guess you could say I was a bit excited. I mean everyone else’s birthdays are in the first half of the year, so I am the baby of the group! So while everyone was out getting their L’s I was sitting a home waiting for Mum, Dad, Jake or Harry to drive me around. But not anymore, five days and im sixteen bitches!!! Mum and Dad are not as enthusiastic as me but at least they are letting me have one right?
“Em, Honey. Can you come into the kitchen for a minute?”
“Coming!”
I jumped off my bed and went down to the kitchen to see Mum, Dad and Jake standing together. ‘Brace yourself for a family meeting” I thought.
“What’s up Mum?”
“Sweetie, I have some bad news?”
“What? Did Jake screw up the car again?”
“Actually yes. And this time it’s real bad. He has a broken arm.”
Jake pulled his arm out from behind the bench.
“Oh my god! Jake are you okay? What the hell happened??”
“Em chill im fine. But I am so sorry.”
“Why are you sorry to me? Its your car.”
“Honey, we have to use the money for your party to pay for Jake’s hospital bill and car damages.”
“What?!?!”
Great. Now I won’t have a sixteenth. Hello loser!
“Em, I’m so sorry.”
He walked towards me and tried to hug me.
“Get away from me. You, you idiot! Why did you have to go and ruin everything! I have been looking forward to this for months. Look, I can’t look at you. I’m going to Harry’s”
I ran upstairs and packed my uniform and bag as fast as I could. I couldn’t help but cry. My sixteenth birthday was ruined before it even started. I ran out of the house and straight to Harry’s luckily he only live ten minutes away. I got to his house and climbed up the ladder he had there for when he sneaked to my house. I climbed through the window and he wasn’t there. I was about to call him to ask where he was but I had left my phone at home. Then he burst through the door and he could see I’d been crying. He ran over and hugged me and I just cried.
“Baby, what’s wrong?”
“Jake. Jake was in a, a car accident.”
“Is he okay?”
“Pretty much, he has a broken arm but he had to go to the hospital and the car is ruined. And now Mum and Dad have to use all the money that’s supposed for my party to pay for all the extra bills. I can’t have a sixteenth and im worried about Jake and I just needed to get away. I can go if I’m in the way.”
“No stay. I’ll go and get you something to drink and some clothes to sleep in.”
“Thankyou. I love you.”
He kissed me on the forehead and walked downstairs. I heard the phone go off and he ran back upstairs.
“It’s your Mum. She says it’s about Jake.”
“Mum? What’s going on?”
“Honey, Jake had a stomach ache, so I brought him to the hospital. He has four broken ribs and they almost punctured his lung. He almost died sweetie.”
“What. I’m coming right now.”
“Okay. See you soon.”
I hung up the phone and ran downstairs to Harry. Tears were streaming down my face.
“Can you take me to the hospital please? I need to see Jake.”
“Of course. I’ll get Lou to come get some clothes and bring Tara round as well. Let’s go.”
“Thankyou.”
We arrived at the hospital and I ran to Jake’s room. He looked so sore.”
“Jake.”
“Hey sis. Come here.”
I froze. Seeing him there. All those tubes.
“Jake. I’m so sorry I got mad at you. I’m so sorry.”
“It’s okay. I would be just as pissed if you did it to me.”
“But I didn’t. Please just be okay.”
“Hey. I’ll be fine okay. But do me a favour. Get mum to leave me alone for a bit. I swear she’s killing me.”
“Okay. But Tara and Lou are on their way. They’re worried about you too.”
“Fine. But don’t let anyone else come.”
