Selena's POV

I wake up the next morning and get on the school bus. I enter the school and go to my locker. I get my stuff and prepare for the first class, suddenly I notice Edward.

"Morning Selena!" He smiles.

"Hi Edward." But I don't smile back, I can't.

"What's wrong?" He asks.

" Nothing ... hey .. can I meet you at lunch time please?" I ask.

"Sure, why not. I'll be at our table." By *our* he means his, Ray's and Harry's table of course.

"Great! See you". I wave at him as I'm walking away.

*Lunch time*

It doesn't even feel like the same school. I miss seeing him around. I miss catching him staring at me. Oh my God what have I done. I regret leaving him like that. He could die for God's sake!

I spot Edward sitting alone that waves at me.

I walk towards him, while I'm doing that a lot of faces smile at me and I smile back. I think I'm starting to fit in.

I sit down "Hey Edward."

"Selena.." he smiles.

He countinous " .. so what's the matter.

I look down for a second and then I ask him "How's he?"

He replies in a little happy voice "He's alright, he's fine. I called Sandra (Ray's mom) and she told me he'll be just fine."

I relieve a little. Then I ask "When is he going to get out?"

"His mom told me he's going to be there for the next 4 or 5 days."

Oh my God, it's somthing serious. A week in the hospital?! I really should go apologise.

"I got a question. What did Harry meant yesterday after school when he told me 'He'll be fine, he has been there before'?".

He replies "I don't think he meant anything bad because boys are gonna be boys. You know what I mean."

I can see he's hiding something from me. Anyway this doesn't matter now.

"I should go see him. Can you help me?" I ask for a favor.

"Mm, I don't know. Yeah why not but my dad has the car most of the day so .... it's going to be a little hard to find the time. I'll give you a call when I get the car okay?"

I reply fast "No, no. This is important! We can go there by bus. I'll pay the tickets. I just want someone to be with me, and I don't know any other one here."

He thinks for a minute. "Yeah, we just might do that." He smiles.

"Thank you Edward. It's so nice of you." I smile.

"Don't mention that, he's my friend too."


Ray's POV

I wake up, feeling a little better than yesterday but I still can't see myself on the mirror as long as I don't want to have nightmares.

The nurse is here. "Good morning Mr.Cathry !"

"Hey." I reply.

"How are you feeling today?" she asks politely.

"Better, thanks."

"Your family has paid for your breakfast so you can order whatever you want." she smiles.

"I just want a cup of milk and two eggs."

She starts to leave but I stop her.

"Hey!"

"Anything else?" she asks worried.

"No. Can I go get some fresh air in the part next to the hospital?" I ask, I totally need some fresh air.

"I'll ask the doctor."

*She comes back with the breakfast*

"The doctor said you can go but I need to be there with you because you may feel pain in your stomach or in your bones around your lungs."

"Great!" I say. I finish eating and I slowly walk down the hallway towards the elevator. My right leg hurts a lot.

We arrive at the park and sit on a stool. I'll start a conversation with the nurse. She's like 40 but whatever. She suddenly asks first.

"So, Ray. How did you end up here?"

"Three guys beated me." I say.

"What for, if I can know that." she asks politely.

I explained to her the whole thing and she tells me one thing that gets my mind so happy.

"She'll come to see you."

But I ask myself. WILL SHE REALLY?
