Chapter 7

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Lauren's POV

"I'll just get some water." Nicky said. I nodded then she went downstairs.

Few seconds later I heard the front door open. Woah Christina and Lisa are back fast. Just then I heard a loud scream. I rushed down the stairs and saw Nicky curled up in a ball on the floor and theirs also this guy. He's punching Nicky.

"Stop!" I shouted.

"Aww.. Sweetie no one can stop me.." The guy said then pulled out a rope and bandana out of his bag.

He tied me up. First my ankles then my hands. I screamed but he tied the bandana on my mouth. He sat me down in the corner then went to Nicky. He started punching her again. I tried to remove the rope tied on my arm but it's no use. He began kicking Nicky. I tried to remove the rope again so I can help Nicky but again it's no use, I can't remove it.

He stood Nicky up then pushed her to the wall, I closed my eyes hoping that when I open them the guy will be gone. Few seconds later, I opened my eyes. Good news is the guy is gone but the bad news is Nicky's laying on the floor unconscious. I tried to remove the rope on my hand and succeeded, I removed the bandana tied behind my head then untied the rope on my ankles.

I rushed to Nicky. I held her in my arms. I checked for pulse. She still has, that's good. I called 911 immediately.

"911 what's your emergency?"

"A guy went inside our little sister's I mean friends house then beat her up. She's unconscious." I said.

"Okay, tell me your name and where you are."

I told him my name and the exact address. Finally they came. They brought a stretcher inside then laid Nicky there. We got into the ambulance then rushed to the hospital.

They rushed Nicky to the ER, they made me stay in the waiting area. I called Christina.

"Chris go to the hospital real quick." I said.

"Why? What happened?" Christina asked.

"No time to explain, just come here quick." I said.

I ended the call. I looked through my contacts, hoping to see Christian's number. Lucky me I found it. I called him.

"Christian, Nicky's in the ER right now. I'll update you later when the doctor comes out." I said.

"What happened?!" Christian asked.

"Nicky's just getting some water while I was in her room then I heard her scream. A guy's beating her up. I tried to stop him but he tied me up. He pushed Nicky to the wall then she went unconscious." I explained.

"Just update me. I can't go there, this is a very far place, it will take like a day and a half just to get there." Christian said.

"Okay I will." I said then ended the call.

I waited for Christina and Lisa. Few minutes later the doctor came out.

"Are you Lauren Cimorelli? You're with Nicky Perez right?" the doctor asked.

"Yes, I'm Lauren Cimorelli. How's Nicky?" I asked.

"Nicky's now in a stable condition. You can see her. She's in room 219. I'll check her later." the doctor said.

"Thank you." I said.

I texted Christian.

"The doctor said she's in stable condition. I think she can go home tomorrow." I said.

I was about to ride the elevator when suddenly someone shouted my name.

"Lauren!" Christina shouted.

"Where's Nicky?" Christina and Lisa said in unison.

"Room 219. The doctor said shes in a stable condition. She's going to check her later." I said.

"C'mon let's go see her. Explain what happened later." Lisa said. I nodded then we went to Nicky's room.

Nicky's still sleeping. Christina and I sat on the couch beside Nicky's bed while Lisa sat on the end of Nicky's bed.

"So, what happened?" Christina asked.

"While we're watching a movie, Nicky said that she's just going to get some water then I heard her scream. I went downstairs and saw her curled to a ball on the floor. A guy's punching her. I tried to stop him but he tied me up. He pushed Nicky to the wa-" I got cut off. Nicky's awake.

"Hey Nicz. How are you feeling?" Lisa asked.

"Fine.. I guess.." Nicky said.

"Does something hurt? How's your back?" Christina asked.

"My stomach hurts a little and my back too." Nicky said.

"Did you recognize the guy who beat you up?" Lisa asked.

"It's my uncle.. When he got arrested he said that he will be back.. And now he came back.." Nicky started to cry.

Lisa moved to Nicky's side then hugged her. Nicky laid her head on Lisa's chest. Lisa stroked her hair.

"Good afternoon. I'm doctor Bea. I see Nicky's awake. Why are you crying sweetie?" The doctor asked Nicky.

"We asked her if she recognized the guy who beat her up and she said that it's her uncle." Christina explained.

"Oh. I'm going to give her a cream. Put it on her bruises twice a day until it heals. And her back, no worries, it will hurt a bit but I'll give her medicine." the doctor said.

"When can she come home?" I asked.

"Tomorrow morning. We just need to check her tonight." the doctor said.

"Laurie.." Nicky said.

"Yes lady bug?" I asked.

"Can you stay here tonight? Sleep beside me?" Nicky asked.

"Sure. Anything for you." I said.

"You're like our baby sister Nicky. You're so special to us." Christina said. Lisa and I nodded in agreement.
