Katrina was kicking and beating the water as it tried to over take her, like it did me two years ago. Shit!!! Why can't I move!? I see can see her drowning there, so how come I'm not saving her! Come on Vince. it's only water!? You used to love it when you were younger. You can do it! It's for Katrina! Save her life! Just close your eyes and jump in!

AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!" Trina's scream sounded like one of those murderous screams in a horror film. She stopped screaming after the last scream. And began to sink in the water! With out thinking I jumped in head first and grabbed her by the waist an pulled her out of the water!

"Trina!!!! TRINA!! CAN YOU HEAR ME!?" I shook her, poked her, pinched her. Nothing worked. She wasn't responding. Then her lips started turning blue'... At that moment, I named every curse word in the book, but nothing helped the girl I was truley in love with... She was stung by a jellyfish. I picked her and took her to my car! We were both soaking wet with outside at 0 degrees celcius. I started my car sped off as fast as the car would go! The nearest hospital was about 20 minutes away. There was noway she could survive that long with poison in her bloodstream. I drove 4 times faster than the suggested speed limit sign, in hoping to get to the hospital faster. I could careless about the law and police at the moment. I looked at Trina and her lips were bluer and her skin was pale. We were almost at the hospital, when I saw flashing lights in the rearview mirror. SHIT!!!! I couldn't stop now!!! My friend was dying!!! I continued to drive fast and turned into the Emergency Room parking lot. I quickly lifted Katrina into my arms and ran her into the ER. A nurse saw me and called immediately for a doctor. The officer walked in and saw Katrina in my arms, and said we would talk in a minute. The doctor was quickly out with a gurney and watched as they pushed her into the operating room...

The officer came up to me and started speaking in french.

"What happened!?" he had a caring look on his face.

"my friend... She was stung be a jellyfish." I had my head in my hands and I looked up to see the officer. He was tall with a full mustache. He was your typical Frenchman. "officer... I am sorry... She was... I didn't want her to...I didn't know what else to do." I took a seat in a chair in the waiting room. He put his hand on my shoulder.

"son, it is okay. You did the right thing, but I'm afraid I can not just let you go free handed. 4 times the doped limit us a large crime, you not only put you and your friend in danger but everyone else around you. I will still have to write up a ticket for you." he had a stern look on his face that was accented with wrinkles.

"I understand." I looked down at my wet shoes.

"now what really matters, have you yet to cal her parents and tell them about the incident!?" Crap! I was so worried about her, that I forgot about her parents!

"Oh god! I forgot to! I don't know how to tell them that..."

"Would you like for me to call!?" the officer cut me off mid sentence.

"please, because I can't do it!" I handed my phone with mrs. Richards number. He spoke confidently and with sincerity in his voice as he told them about Trinas accident. He then handed me the phone and told me to call my parents.

MOM: Vincent!!! We are on our way! Sharon told us about Trina! My baby boy you are okay!?

ME: I am fine. I just need you to come here as soon as possible. And bring me a complete change of clothes.

MOM: Okay baby. I'm on my way. Love you.

ME: love you too.

Soon after the call the entire search party that was once at yhe Richards house , was now piled into the ER. I changed in to the black thermal shirt and jeans with my high-tops and quickly joined everyone else. We all sat around with tears in our eyes waiting for the doctor to come with news of Trinas condition. The doctor came out looking for trinas visitors. He had a serious look on his face, that was then lightened with a small smile. He came over in our general direction.

"First I would like to let you all know that she fine and recovering well! Second, you are all very lucky. We got the poison out right as it was going to enter her heart. And third, she is ready for visitors... 4 is the maximum allowed in ICU." he smiled and went to go talk to mr and mrs. Richard. U could feel my heart going back to a relaxed pace. She was okay. I got her here just in time. My thoughts of relief had all died when my parents walked up to me with the policeman. DAMN IT! Forgot about him.

"So, young man my supervisor is coming... And he thinks you belong in jail. Personally, I think you heroic action deserve some kind of reward, so here's what we will do. He just needs to see you enter the cell and then you are free to go understand? But remember we must make it convincing." He gave me a smile as he cuffed my hands behind my back. This was not how I pictured spending my Saturday.

"...but before you take me to jail, may I see her for a moment, please?" I begged.

"of course you may." he smiled and I walked over to her room. The doctor was still talking to her parents so I was alone with her.

I walked into the room, and saw her lying there hooked up to about 6 different machines. One checking her heartbeat, another breathing for her, another recording her brain activity, and the last three were IVs that I assumed was cleaning her blood. I walked over closer to her side. She looked a little bit more like herself. Her skin was back to it's light glowing shade and her lips were soft with a hint of pink. I quickly kissed her.

"Katrina... You have no idea how much you scared me today." I laughed. "first you runaway, then you fall off the pier, then you get stung by a jellyfish! I know it is probably pointless to say of this because you are unconcious, but... I really love you... And I will always be here for you no matter what." I smiled at how date brought us together.

"Excuse me, son, timd to go." it was the officer. I took one last look at her and went back to the waiting room. The officer was pretending to hand cuff me and was saying my rights. I saw my mother crying and my dad trying to convince the supervisor to let me go. Mr. and Mrs. Richards were screaming from the sides that they would find me a good lawyer. Everyone was in on the plan and played a role. I fidgeted as the cop tried to put me in his vehicle. The supervisor seemed to be pleased with my arrest. He was a tall fat man. He wore a black suit and a frown on his hard masculine face. He saw the officer struggling to get me in the car, and came and shoved me in the car himself. They both got in and drove down to the police station to lock me up.
