Amory's POV

Bleep.....bleep....bleep...

Everything was dark...so dark and hazy...

I tried to open my eyes but they wouldn't obey, what's wrong with me?! My limbs feel incredibly heavy...Where was i?

Bleep...bleep...bleep....

I heard footsteps run past, the smell of antiseptic hit my nose. Antiseptic...doctors office? Hospital? What had happened? Why couldn't i remember?!

I tried to open my eyes again, cold white light hit my eyes. I blinked.

"J.J.?" I asked, my voice a hoarse whisper. "J.J.?" I said again, louder this time.

"Moe!" He was instantly at my side, smoothing my hair back, gently. "Are you okay?! Where does it hurt, sweetheart?" He held my hand, softly.

The pain in my head was intense, throbbing with the beat of my heart. It took all my control not to moan, but i didnt want J.J. to worry.

"Just a little bit in my head, nothing big...." I said. His eyes misted over. He pulled away from me and walked across the room to look out the window.

"Nothing big?! Nothing big?! " He ran a hand through his hair, something he only did when he was feeling strong emotion. He suddenly turned and came over to my hospital bed, sitting on the side. He pulled me into his arms.

"You've been unconscience for six days! I-I thought i'd-" His voice broke "I thought i'd lost you" He whispered, face buried in my hair. I rubbed his back.

"I'm okay. Everythings going to be okay." I said, my head was getting worse and worse though with every moment that passed. The door to my room opened with a squeak and Brandi, David, and my dad walked in. Brandi froze, her eyes tearing up and hand going to her mouth. Dad ran over to the bed, practically yanking me out of Jason's arms, my head screamed in pain and i cried out.

Istantly he was apologetic.

"Im so sorry sweetie, i just wanted to see for myself that you arent....well...dead" My eyes widened, they had really expected me to die?!

"Hey, whats that bandage on your arm, Brandi?" Jason asked. She flinched.

"Oh nothing, just a scratch" She said and smiled. I doubted this was the case but my head hurt to much to think of it.

David stood akwardly in the doorway, before he finally said "Well....uh...im gonna go call Bril and deliver the news..." My heart jolted. Abril? The girl who pushed me off a fricken dock?! The girl who almost killed me?!?!?! Why was he even here?!

"Yeah. You do that. And dont bother coming back." I snapped. He flinched at my tone, then nodded and left. Brandi's eyes were wide and shock covered her face. Dad chuckled and J.J. said

"Drugs, Brandi, she's not nice on drugs."

I scowled.

"Then get me off drugs and out of this frickin hospital!"

A laugh sounded at the door. The doctor stood there, holding a clipboard.

"Well, im glad to see you up and kicking Miss Willis but trust me, that awful head pain you have right now would be twenty times worse without the drugs."

I rolled my eyes.

"I can deal with it, im a tough cookie. Get me the h-e-double L outa here!"

"Amory Marie Willis! Language!" Dad said, frowning.

"Oops." I said sarcasticly. "Must be the drugs" Somewhere deep in me i knew i was being mean to the people who had apperently been on pins and needles worrying about whether id die or not for almost a week.
