I could feel as the water was swallowing me up. I screamed at the top of my lung but he stood there as if everything was okay. I kicked and beat the water trying to stay above the surface. Suddenly i couldn't feel my arms and legs...there was excruciating pain in my back... I screamed at the coldness that went down my spine...It was blistering. I looked around for someone to help me...anyone...anything. I saw vincent and molly...together? They were hand in hand staring at me and grinning. WHAT THE HELL WAS GOING ON!? I watched as they leaned their faces closer and closer together. I couldn't breathe, and suddenly my vision went dark. I couldn't see, breathe, or move. I didnt know what to do!? I started screaming at the top of my lungs.

"Katrina! Katrina! Its okay! you are okay! Your safe sweetie!" I heard a voice fromn somewhere. It sounded very familiar, but i couldnt make out who it was. I opened my eyes and saw Junior and Laurine on either side of me. Where was I? I tried to sit up was held back by a series of cables and tubes attached to...me?

"Wh-wh-where am i? What happened?" I asking in hoping to figure out what was going on.

"You're at the hospital... you had an accident at the beach!" Laurine said with tears in her eyes.

"You were stung by a poisonous jellyfish..." Junior said frowning.

"What...." I suddenly remembered evrything. The runaway, Vincent finding me, his fight with Avery, and me falling into the water... It all came rushing back like a dam collapsing and flooding a city. "Where's Vincent and Avery? How did I get here? Why did they leave me here? Wheres my parents? How are they? How long have i been out?" I had sooo many questions. I need to know what was going on!

"Wowww...wooww..woww! One at a time Trina!" Juniors smile was back. "Everyones okay. After you fell in Vince jumped in and saved you and rushed you here! Your parents are outside speaking with the surgeon. Your not alone here... everyones outside in the waiting room. You were allowed 4 visitors but the Surgeon said 1 visitor at a time now." Junior smile crookedly. He wasnt telling me something.

"... But you and Laurine are in here at the same time... thats 2 not 1..." my voice sound weak.

"Don't worry we had permission from the doctor... we were about to leave and hes my ride home, so the doctor permitted both of us to be in here." Laurine smiled.

"Oh...okay... so where's Vince?" I asked.

"Ummm...hes around..." Laurine said.

"well can i see him?" I asked with a hint of saracasm.

"Well...ummm...hes not...here..." Junior said looking a little jumpy.

"What do you mean?" He was the one who brought me here! Of course he was here.

"Trina...hes not here at the hospital." Junior said sympathetically.

"Well where is he?" I was beginning to get annoyed.

"Okay... will you two please exit the room? Its time for Ms. Richards injection." A tall thin man entered the room. He was around his mid 20s, with black hair and blue eyes. He had a long needle in his hand.

"Of course, bye trina! we'll tell vince to come and see you." Junior and Laurine quickly left the room.

"So this Vincent boy is your...how you say... boyfriend?" his english was not very good, and it made me giggle.

"No." I sighed thinking of how much i really liked him.

"Oh. Okay. You seem to be liking him, no?" He said smiling.

"Well sorta...Im not sure." I felt awkward talking to him about my problems.

"Ahh... Well best advice i can give is you must follow your heart!" He patted my head and walked out the room. It was late. I stretched in my little bed.
