~Mason's P.O.V. ~

Her dad was shaking her and calling her name. "HEATHER!!! MY BABY! I'M SORRY!! PLEASE DON'T LEAVE ME!!" Tears were pouring down his face. "FORGIVE ME, FORGIVE ME! LORD! TAKE ME, NOT HER..... Not my precious baby...." He begged. "Sir, let me take her to the hospital." I asked. He seemed to barely notice me. "SIR!" I grabbed his shoulder. He looked at me with puffy red rimmed eyes and tear stained face. He smelled just like the red-head. "Ok... ok. But be quick! Go now! I can't lose my poor Heather!" he patted my back. "I'll make it all go away..." He whispered in Heather's ear, "I-I promise... just don't leave me."

I scooped her up in my arms and speeded away to the hospital. We got there quickly and I ran into the E.R. I found a nurse and spoke quickly, "Nurse! Help please! She's out cold! She fell wrong something isn't right with her arm. And she's bleeding a lot!" I rushed out. I spoke and told her what I thought had happened. Leaving out the red-head and drugs. She rushed me to a room with a doctor. He took her and they started immediately to save her innocent soul. The other assistant nurses had to ask me to leave, so when I didn't they had to get physical and pull me out. I paced the waiting room floor for 3 hours. What if she was gone? I couldn't leave her! Soon her dad got here, and then the nurse came to get us. We raced to Heather's room.

~Heather's P.O.V. ~

I awoke staring at a white ceiling, in a white room, with white walls, under white sheets, wearing a white gown. OMG I DIED!!! HOLY SEA SHELLS!!! I DIDN'T TURN IN MY HOMEWORK!!! NOW I WON'T GET INTO A GOOD COLLEGE! AND I'LL DIE A FAILURE!!! Wait I'm dead... what am I doing worrying about my life for? SMOKING SALMON!!! MY DAD!?! NOW HE'S GONNA BE DEPRESSED!!! STINKING PONNIES!!! HE'LL SUICIDE!! Hold up... so I'm dead? Like my mom? MOM!! WOOHOO!! I CAN SEE MY MOM NOW! YESSS!! UH-HUH!!! HAPPY DANCE!! WOOH!!! I FEEL LIKE I JUST WON A SOLID CHOCOLATE TROPHY!!! YEAH!!! Hmm.... I want a Snickers bar now....wait a sec!! "MASON!!!!" I yelled his name loudly. A door opened. WOAH!!! WHEN DID THAT DOOR GET THERE!?!?!? And in stepped a man. GOD!!! OMG!! HOW DO I LOOK!!!!!!! I CAN'T MEET HIS MAJESTY, RULER OF ALL CREATION IN JUST THIS GOWN!!! I tried to speak, but I couldn't I was speech less under the Almighty.

"Oh. Heather! You're awake! How grand! I'm your Doctor, Dr. Harriman but you can call me Dr. H." he grinned widely and offered his hand. HOLD UP!! DOCTOR? OH!!! My eyes widened as realization slapped me in the face with a baseball bat. "THIS IS A HOSPITAL?!" I yelled absolutely disappointed. What? You can't blame me. I haven't seen my mommy since I was ten, when she was raped and killed by a man named Damon. "Yes, this is indeed." said Dr. H. "oh..." yeah, not the smartest thing to say, but I had just thought I was in heaven, because I died, and that this man was God. So excuse me for not being smart at the moment. "Yes," he chuckled, "Do you feel strong enough for visitors your father and step-brother are here to see you." UM EARTH TO DOCTOR!! I DON'T HAVE A STEP-BROTHER!! "Yes." So what, if I didn't tell him? I wanted to meet my so called step-brother!

He left to go get the imposter. I formed a plan. I would throw something at my 'step-brother', and then while he was distracted call him out on his bluff. I grabbed a mini phone book. The door opened and in came.... My dad.... Dr. H.... and "IMPOSTER!" I yelled then I threw the heavy book at him. He fell straight over to the side with an 'Oomph!' his arms flailing trying to whack it away. "HA! I SPOILED YOUR EVIL PLAN!!" I stated with a smug tone. "What are you talking about?" he moaned. His voice was familiar and sexy... who knew a voice could be sexy? OMG! "MASON!" I yelled and jumped to my feet, unplugging the things on my arms to help the poor victim up.

"Well you seem a lot better..." he chuckled as I got on top of Mase to hug him. "Yes, you do. If you can walk, then I think you're free to go..." said the doctor as Mason hugged me back even though he was still on the floor. It was then that I noticed I had multiple healing stitches on my arm. Why hadn't I felt any pain? "Ok!" I said cheerily... mostly because Hospitals freak me out. And I wanted to go home. "Well then, Mr. Smith you can go ahead and sign these papers and everything will be back to normal. You can take her home and all, I mean. Just sign here... here..." he directed my father. "Hey." I grinned at Mason. "Hello there." he smirked. It took me a while to realize we were in an inappropriate position. With me straddling him and his back against the wall, while we were sitting on the cold floor. "This looks wrong..." I whispered in his ear."Yeah, you should get up..." he chuckled. I blushed and stood. "Thanks for everything doctor!" I said as my dad led me to the exit. "Good-Bye!" he waved. My dad and I rode in his car, while Mason was in his own.

When we got there Mason and my dad sat me down and told me, "You were in the hospital for about 3½ hours." My dad said. "We can go to school if you like it's... 1:45, so free period is about to end." offered Mason. "You know how important school is to me!" I smiled "Dad do you mind?" I looked at my father. "Ok, but we'll need to talk when you get home. Alright?" he pleaded. "Of course dad." I said looking down. "We need to go now if you don't want to be late to 5th period ok?" said Mase. "Let's go." I kissed my dad on the cheek and grabbed Mason's hand, taking him to his car which still had my backpack and stuff.

We drove to school in a comfortable silence. When we found a parking spot, Mason cut the engine and looked at me. I stared back at his beautiful eyes. He seemed as though he wanted to ask me something. "What is it Mase?" I asked. "Listen... you sure you want to do this?" he looked at me understandingly. "What do you mean? I'm just going to school..." I was puzzled. "Nothing... lets go, we're going to be late." He said disappointed. We walked into the school. He kissed my head and said, "Be careful, ok?" "I will." I told him. He handed me the doctors excuse note and I headed into my 5th period slowly with my arm sling. "Ahh, Ms. Heather, would you like to explain why you're ten minutes late to Algebra?" Ms. Greene asked. I handed her Dr. H's note.

~Aaron's P.O.V. ~

Where is she!? Where's my toy? Heather, if that Mason guy hurt you... I swear! I thought as I walked to 5th period, a mob of girls hot on my tail. They were all whispering things like, "When is he going to ask someone else out?", "Who'll be next?", "Why did he dump Venessa?", "I hope I'm next..." They were really hot, others extremely cute, some that might have a chance if their personality is amazing, and ALL of them were in the popular crowd. I decided to give them some face time. So I turned around and they all came to a stop.

"Girls, girls... in all honestly can I get a little time to myself?" I asked my voice smooth and silky. They practically fainted. "Tina, looking beautiful as ever. Sally, you're looking tempting. Veronica, how are you? Jacklyn, haven't seen you in a while. Morgan, did you do something to your hair? Tom, Luke, Cameron, I've told you, I'm not gay." I winked at all the girls and scolded the guys. Then I walked into my class. Still bored I sat down in the last seat in the back, by the door. Even though the girls were, again pushing neighbors out of their seats. It's so tiring to be this good looking. There was an empty seat next to me, Sandra raced to fill it. "Hey..." she said. Only minutes later, Toy walked in. She had an arm sling... MASON DID BEAT HER! THAT MUST'VE BEEN WHY SHE CHOSE HIM! HE'S ABUSIVE! I'LL KILL HIM! "Since you're hurt, take the seat in the back. Sandra, move?" "Sorry you have to sit next to her..." she said, flirtingly. She had been trying to make conversation with me the whole time, but I'd ignored her. "Thanks..." I mumbled annoyed.
