Fall Risk

Chapter 5

****Alexis' POV****

I woke up in tears. I was so scared and I don't even know why.. Then I saw a boy sleeping in the chair beside me. It took me a minute but I remembered meeting him in the cafeteria. It was Brent.

He was so cute. I barely knew him and he stayed with me. I didn't want to wake him so I turned on the tv and watched the news.

They were broadcasting the crash. And how and why the car fell off the train. I immediately turned it off and threw the remote to the other side of the room.

The noise was small but it woke up Brent.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to wake you.."

He smiled at me and came closer, "it's ok. How are you feeling?"

I shrugged and he gave me a big hug.

"I'm so sorry Lexi. I really am."

Crap. He knew. And I let it all out. I couldn't hold back the tears. He was rubbing my back and my hair.

"Can we walk?" I wanted to do something other than be in this room.

I took out my IV. Brent looked at me with a concerned look.

"I'm fine. I wasn't in the car. I don't even know why I'm here, I only hit my head."

He sighed and took my hand and we walked around then his phone buzzed. It was from someone named Matt.

"Crap. I have to go my friend is leaving now."

I gave him a playful frown

"You can.. Come, if you want to..." He asked shyly.

"Sure! Anything is better than being in that room." He smiled at me and we walked to the elevator and went to the 4th floor.

We walked down the endless looking hallway until we came to a room that had the name "Dallas, Cameron" on it.

I knew that name from somewhere. We walked in and there were 3 more boys there. One looked kinda like Justin Bieber. The other one had really REALLY blue eyes. And the third was laying in the bed with his foot wrapped in a bandage.

"Hey, who's this?" The Bieber boy asked Brent.

"This is Alexis. Alexis Peters..." Brent replied.

As soon as he said my name the boys knew who I was some how. Brent shook his head violently.

"I'm really sorry Alexis.." The blue eyes one said. He walked over and gave me a hug. I didn't hug back. I didn't know him, that would be weird.

He realized I didn't know him and he looked surprised.

"I'm Nash," that's a different name..

"That's Matt ," ok, Justin was now Matt.

"And that's Cameron." He was the injured one.

I took a minute and processed their names.

Nash, Matt, Cameron, Brent. Got it.

"What happened?" I asked Cameron.

"I would ask you the same, but everyone knows.."

Matt slapped Cameron.

"I'm so sorry! I didn't mean for it to sound like that!!" Cameron apologized.

"It's ok."

"I stepped on a tin can cover and sliced my foot open really deep."

Ouch. That must have hurt..

A doctor walked in. It wasn't Dr.Flynn. It was a man.

"Ok Mr. Dallas, your free to go! Just take this," he handed Cameron a prescription for pain meds.

"Thanks doc," Cameron shook hands with the doctor and hey grabbed his back pack and some crutches.

The doctor left and I couldn't stop laughing.

"What's so funny?" Brent asked me.

"Mr. Dallas!!" I done know why but it was hilarious.

"Am I not Mr worthy to you!?" Cameron pretended he was hurt.

I was actually laughing. That made Brent smile. Then a voice came over the intercom.

"Alexis Peters, please return to your room. Alexis Peters."

The boys looked at me and Brent placed his hand on my back, "want us to come? If that's ok with the boys."

All the boys nodded and they walked me back to my room on the 2nd floor.

We walked in and Dr. Flynn was standing there talking on the phone.

"I will calm you back," she hung up and slid it in her pocket.

"Alexis, take a seat please." She motioned to the bed.

"I see you brought an audience.." She joked

"Ya if that's ok." I exchanged looks with the boys and Dr. Flynn.

"Yes it it," she looked worried, " I'm afraid I have some bad news.."

My heart dropped. What was going on. I looked at Brent and he held my hand. I don't think I was ready to hear the rest..

(A/N: what do you guys think the bad news is?

Will Jack be ok?

Another long chapter sorry.
