Chapter 2

Ross's POV

The doctors picked her up and put her on the stretcher. Zahara was Unconscious.

We followed the ambulance to the hospital and waited in the waiting room for the doctor.

Nothing was said for two hours except that she was going into surgery. Rydel would glance over at me whey minute to make sure I wasn't crying.

Zaharas parents were at a conference in San Francisco. I called and they said they would be around soon. Her parents were never really present. All she had was me. The doctor came out and looked around for me. I stood up and walked over to him.

"Is she ok?" I asked.

"The surgery went well but she will not be able to dance again." The doctor looked down at his clipboard.

"Ever." I said.

"I'm sorry. I'm trusting you to tell her and to help her find a new hobby." The doctor shook my hand and left. I went to the front desk.

"Room 347." I said. The lady smiled and took me to her room. I walked inside and Zahara shifted. I turned to the nurse.

"She will be a little dizzy. That's normal. No brain damage from hitting the floor." The nurse turned to the door and walked away. I looked at Zahara and her sparkling eyes as they fluttered open. I slowly walked to her bedside.

"My head hurts." Zahara said followed by a small sigh. "Are the judges gonna let me try again?"

"Haven't talked to them yet." I said very quiet.

"What?" Zahara asked. "Why are you talking so quiet?"

"Your tired. I'll talk to you tomorrow. Love you. Bye." I turned and left before she could say something. I walked down the hall. Tears slowly fell from my eyes. They rolled down my cheeks and slowly hit the ground.

After I left the hospital I went to the park. I sat on a bench and cried for about 20 minutes straight. I wiped my eyes and started to walk around. In the distance I saw Laura my co star on Austin and Ally walking towards me. She waved and I waved back. She reached me and hugged me.

"Hey, Ross." Laura said as chirpy as ever. Laura smile turned into a frown quickly. "Have you been crying?" She asked. She took her thumb and probably wiped the single tear that fell from my eye.

"Maybe." I said. Laura grabbed my hand and pulled me over to a bench.

"What happened, Ross?" Laura had a concerned look in her eyes.

"Zahara. She fell when she was dancing. She may never be able to dance again, Laura. I have to tell her." I said. Laura immediately hugged me.

"I'm so sorry Ross." Laura said. I started to cry into her shoulder. Why is this happening?

Rydel's POV

Ross slowly walked into the living room late that night. I examined his face. The look in his eyes was awful.

"Come here, Buddy." I put my arms out while sitting on the couch. He fell onto the couch and cried and cried.

"Her life is over." Ross said.

"Why?" I asked.

"She will NOT be able to dance again!" Ross yelled. My eyes started to fill with tears. He was so angry.

"I'm sorry, Ross." I said. I slowly rubbed his back. He closed his eyes and leaned his head back and drifted off to sleep. I covered him with a blanket and put a pillow under his head and went upstairs to go to sleep.
