Famous? Who Knew?

Part 5

It was dark at first then i could hear and see two things. The rain hitting some kind of glass and Josh trying to wake me up. The two things I could see were Josh's face and a bright light behind his head.

The more I tried opening my eyes the more my head was banging.I was so confused on wat happened and were I was. "Nicole? Are you awake?" I could hear him alright. I tried to say 'yes' but a moan came out instead. I felt like my breathing was getting easier. "Nicole? Honey are you okay?" It was my mom. "We are real sorry Nicole. We did not notice you had glass in your head." And that was Dianes voice.

My eyes were complitley open know and I could see Diane, David, Chelsea, my mom, and Josh. I saw my moms face and I knew she was worried. Josh's face was hard. Nothing was there but a statued face. That was a sign that somebody was about to get punched. Yup he was mad. Chelsea and her parents looked worried in a fake way. Like they didn't really care.

A cell phone beeped and Diane checked her phone. I think I forgot to mention that Diane is constantly on her phone. I couldnt help but think she was spreding the word around the world telling everybody that I got glass in my dam head because of her son. Wait let me rephrase that, Diane is probably telling the world that I was a rude bitch and interupted her special announcment not because I was being sexually harassed by her perverted son but because I didn't like her. Of course she would never burst her kids bubbles infront of people.

I still couldnt get my mouth to move. Everything around me was moving a bit too fast. Of course i did not forget what had happened or why I was in the hospital. I glanced towards Chelsea under my brothers arm. She was on the verge of crying again for the second time tonight. i felt really bad even though it wasn't my fault that I was here or why they were here.

There was suddenly a knock on the door, before I could answer anybodys question around me, the nurse came in with a laptop on a rolly cart. The hospital had finally upgraded from the typical clip board and pen.

"Hello Ms. Nicole. How are you feeling?" I just stared at him for a moment trying to gather up what I was going to say. So instead of saying anything, I just nodded my head.

"Okay, so im guessing you don't want to talk?" He chuckled and brought out a tool to check my blood pressure. I then noticed the really ugly cloth I was wearing. It was those usual dead blue robes.

"When will I get out of here?" I asked finally speaking. It caught everybody's attention. Even Diane.

"You will have to stay over tonight but hopefully you will be out by tomorrow before noon." Tomorrow? Before noon? My injury was not that bad! I had to go to work tomorrow! I definatly could not miss it!I tried to sit up and my head fell back. I was really dizzy. I put my hand to my forehead and felt a bandage wrapped around it. It hurt with the slighest touch. I, once agin, tried to get back up and this time I was a bit better at reaching my goal.

"Umm I'm sorry but I have work tomorrow and I really can't miss it. Tomorrow especially." I said definatly not setteling with a "tomorrow at noon."

"I am afraid I can not. The docter suggestes you get some rest. The glass cut deep"

"But.." my mom cut in.

"Honey I have already called Tim's dad and he said it's fine if you don't go back tomorrow. He says he really hopes you get well soon." I felt my face loose expression. I was speechless. I just stared at my mom.

"Alright family," the nurse said trying to break the tension, "visiting time is up. I will have to ask you to leave know."

"We are truley sorry, Nicole. We hope you feel better." David said. It was probably the first time I actually listened to a word he said this whole time he was here.

"We have to get back. I have work extra early tomorrow. Good night Nicole." Diane added.

I just gave them the fakiest smile that has ever been planted on my face.

Diane and David left the room saying there good byes with my mom."Get some rest tonight sweety aand we'll talk about this tomorrow." my mom kissed my forehead and walked out. WOW. That was the only word that repeated in my head until she was out of sight. What the hell was there to talk about? Instead of saying it will be okay and we will never go back to that dam hell hole, she says we will talk about this later!I was definatly not looking forward going home tomorrow.

Josh and Chelsea were still in the room. "Chelsea I'm really s.."

" Hope you feel better. I have to go back home. I'll text you later." she goes on her tip toes, kisses Josh and walks out. Yup she was mad at me. Bitch. I didnt say it out loud becasue Josh of course would have gotten mad and would probably storm off like the rest of them. I havn't even done anything to Chelea though! Maybe interupted some stupid anouncment but I thought she forgave me for that. I got glass smashed in my head by her brother and yet still shes the one getting mad at me. I gave Josh that face like 'what the hell?'i felt my swollen eyes tear up. Josh came closer to the bed. He was about to try to comfort me or try to give me a lecture. Either way I waved my hand not wanting to hear anything else.

"Save it. Can you justgive me my phone?" He looked taken back.

"Uh, yea sure." He went towards a cloest and got it out of my side bag.

"Thanks." I said in a whisper tone. He smiled adn said, "I hope you feel better Nic. 'Night."

I watched him leave and shut the door. I sighed and looked outside the window. The rain was more like a storm. I started to worry that the beach might not be open tomorrow. Either way I wanted to go.  I was in no mood in staying inside. I was thinking about texting Monica but i felt tired and sleepy all of a sudden. I think it was from the meds that they injected in me. The beeping of themachines behindme slowly started to fade out. before I knew it I was asleep.
