All the Ways to Tell You

Inhuman Screeches of Joy

(Hey dudes! SO frickin sorry for not posting for so long. Anyway, expect many much fluff coming up in following chapters.)

Ella's POV

They stepped into the elevator and Emily pushed the button to Corrie's floor. As the elevator rose, Grey took out his phone and started texting. Emily was humming something, and staring off into space. Ella thought. Corrie is going to go into surgery as soon as her parents sign the thing. I hope she'll be okay. I hope she's okay right now all alone. I wonder if anyone else from school will come visit.

The elevator doors slid open. Ella an Emily stepped out but Grey was still later focused on his phone. The doors were about to close. "Greeyy!" Emily called. He looked up and put his hand between the doors before they closed. They opened again and he stepped out. "Heh, Sorry." The girls rolled their eyes and they kept walking. They went down the hall to the waiting room area. "ELLA!!" She was attacked with a hug by someone who had been in the waiting area. "THE FU-Oh hey Soaf!"

Sophie was bouncing worriedly yet excitedly on the balls of her feet. Sophie glanced at Grey, then from Grey to Ella, back to Grey and then back to Ella. And then to Grey's bloody shirt and then back to Ella. She looked at her as if to say "Was he here all night?" Ella nodded and Sophie's smile spread very wide. "Have you guys stayed in the waiting area all night?" Sophie inquired. Ella shook her head, "No, we were let in Corrie's room and spent the night in there."
"What?! How'd you get in? They wouldn't let me see her yet." Ella smirked. "Well-" Grey jumped up from where he had sat down. "WELL they didn't want her to be lonely! That was all, ok let's go see if we can get inside now *AHEM*" He left to talk to the lady at the counter. Sophie looked at Ella with a confused smile that said "Spill the tea."

"Oh shoot! Hey Emily, I think I left my phone on the table we were at! Could you please see if it's there?" Emily looked up from her phone. "Yeah, totally." She left, and Sophie and Ella were alone in the waiting room. "OK so yesterday. Me, Grey, and Emily were all sitting in the waiting room. They would only let in immediate family and close relations. SO Grey ran up to a doctor and told her that he was Corrie's boyfriend! And-"
"SCREEEE!" Sophie let out an inhuman screech of joy. Grey spun around and gave them a weird look then turned back to the lady at the desk. "Shut up!" Hissed Ella. "We're in a hospital!" Sophie clapped her hands over her mouth. "Sorry! Knee-jerk response!"

She told Sophie everything, including how she stayed up late and saw the kiss Grey had given Corrie. Another inhuman screech followed that report. And another weird look from Grey. And another "shut up" from Ella. Ella finished talking and leaned back in her chair. Sophie was bursting with squeals being contained
Grey came back and sat next to her. "Uck, you stink, JD." Said Ella, covering her nose with her hand. Grey faltered in his comeback. "Wha-I'm not sure whether to be more insulted that you said I stink or the fact you basically called me a psychopathic weirdo."
"You are a psychopathic weirdo." She said with a smirk. "And you smell bad. Besides, I'm pretty sure JD is a sociopath, not a psychopath."
"Psh, same thing."
"No. It's really not."
"I'm pretty sure-"
"No IM pretty sure that-"
They stopped bickering as Emily came down the hallway and before she reached them, Corrie's door opened...
