"Evan?" A voice asked as I opened the door to the office carefully. There were only a few people there and Ethan was at the front desk. "What did you just come back from Kiddo?" He asked. I shrugged, not really wanting to open my mouth in case I screamed in pain from my arm. London didn't think it was broken, but I didn't know.
Ethan must have seen that I was holding my arm carefully and called Alex, who, surprisingly came quickly through the hallway. "How was it, Ev?" He asked. I didn't want to answer but I also didn't want him to find out about my arm, so I sent Ethan a quick glance that I hoped meant 'be quiet.' but Ethan certainly wasn't quiet, he shook his head softly and gave me an apologetic smile.
"He looks like he fell down or something, you should probably check him out," Ethan said, betraying me.
Alex looked at me, looked at my arm, then nodded for me to come back to the rooms. I reluctantly followed.
I complained the whole way back. "Alex it wasn't...that bad, I only fell a little." He smiled at me.
"I know you may think it's not bad Ev, but I just want to double check." He led me into a room with black walls and sea green cabinets. "Here, let me see," I hesitated, but I soon took my hand out. It was covered in blood. The second I took it off the blood from my elbow dripped down to the floor. I panicked.
"I'm really sorry Al-"
"Don't be, now let's get you cleaned up. He washed my bloody hand and then got something out of a cabinet. "This'll be cold and it may sting a little, but we need to make sure we stop the blood from falling and that you don't get an infection." He said, handing me a wipe. I held it on my elbow, wincing at first. "There you go, now," He opened a drawer, revealing medical tape. "Are you okay if I tape this on?" I nodded, watching as he did so. I winced at the pain but it wasn't as bad as it was when I had gotten it. "Now, come sit up here," Alex said, patting the table. I was scared, but I jumped on there, careful not to hurt my bleeding arm. There were two thick curtains on the end of each side of the table and Alex told me to lie still. I did as I was told as he closed the curtains and went outside.
When what I guessed was the x-ray was done, Alex came back inside, opening the curtains. "It'll print in a little while but for now, come with me." And I did. I followed him out of the room and into another room. "Does the bone or muscle of your arm hurt at all?" Alex asked me. I shrugged, it did hurt, but I didn't want him to know. Alex then grabbed my forearm gently and started straightening and bending it. I bit my lip to hold in my silent screams. Alex looked up at me. "Evan I need you to tell me if it hurts," It was at this time when Ethan came into the room holding papers.
"It's not broken,"
---------------------
I was so relieved I thought I would faint from it, but instead, I just held a straight face. It didn't stay straight for long when Alex opened my arm again. I yelped back in surprise and winced in pain, pulling my arm away from him. "I'm sorry Evan. I won't touch your arm again-I promise, but can I just see it?" I hesitated some.
"Alex knows what he's doing Kiddo, he can help you," Ethan spoke after a long silence. I let him see my arm, which was swollen, and bruised. He looked at it some, keeping his promise of not touching it, then stood up.
"It's not broken, but definitely sprained." He said. I groaned. "But it's fine, I promise it'll be fine, I'll get a special ice wrap and a thin brace along with some more things, don't worry Evan, I got this," He said, smiling and racing off.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When Alex was gone Ethan rose up to join me on the table. "How did you get that?" he asked, looking and pointing at the wipe.
"Oh, Alex gave it to me," I answered, not completely knowing what else I should say.
"No, no," Ethan said while laughing slightly. "I meant how did you get that scrape, and the sprain?"
"Oh," I didn't exactly know how to answer that, but soon Alex came in. I was hoping then Ethan would forget about it, but unfortunately, he just asked again.
"Uhm, I..." my voice faltered as I hesitated, Alex was listening too, so I needed to make sure I shadowed Jordan in the best possible way. "Someone accidentally fell on me," I said, making the sentence up as words came out of my mouth. "And, yeah," I said. Both Ethan and Alex looked confused and raised an eyebrow at me.
"Okay," Alex started. "This is going to be cold for the first few minutes Evan but you'll get used to it soon," Alex said, grabbing my arm gently. I winced as he took off the wipe and put an ice wrap on my arm. The cold seemed to burst through my skin, hurting it more. "We'll have to replace it every half an hour or so, but it'll be worth it in the end," Alex said, getting up again. "And unfortunately you can't move it any."
"At all?" I worriedly asked.
"Sadly no, if you want it to heal, but after a couple of months, it should get better. Ethan, could you give us a moment." Alex said. Ethan nodded, then left, and my heart thumped.
"Evan, I don't think someone accidentally pushed you down," Alex started. "So what actually happened."
I wanted to stay silent.
"It's all done now, all we have to do is wait for it to heal," Alex said again, trying to convince me again.
"It's not that...it's that the person will get mad at me." Once I said that Alex got up and opened the door to make sure no one was outside, no one was. In fact, it was almost empty.
"Ev I promise I won't tell anyone, but you have to tell me."
I spoke. "Some kid named Jordan pushed me off the stage-"
"Across the street?" I nodded. "Evan that's like a five-foot fall, how did it happen?"
"He just pushed me,"
"Jordan, Jordan Jordan Jordan," Alex said, trying to recall the name.
"He had black hair and was tall." I described.
Alex turned back to me. "Was he with a kid named London Rodger?" I nodded again.
Ethan came in, making me jump. "Alex we should probably do it soon," he muttered to Alex.
Alex himself sighed. "Look I'm sorry to enforce this on you right now," He started. "At the worst possible time, but Ethan is right," Alex said. "You need a flu shot."
