Chapter 3 - C03: Anna - 3

She came over to watch netflix and give me some company and now Anna was unconscious in the back of a car with Eithan driving us to the hospital.

I brought my laptop to write. I doubt a Sunday night at Saints Hospital is going to be fun.

Eithan was silent the entire ride and I'm thankful for it. Honestly the last thing I need is for chad to start getting chatty. It was unfortunate that out of the other three candidates for driving, one was unconscious, another was too busy in a gaming comp to drive mentioned unconscious sister, and I got a DUI three Saturdays ago and had my license suspended for two months.

So when I called Eithan up and he answered the phone with "baby, I missed you," it took everything in me to care for my friend on the floor and overlook how painful Eithan is to deal with.

I hadn't taken first aid so I didn't know what to do with the blood. I looked over my shoulder at Anna awkwardly strapped in, laying down across the three back seats. The bandage I wrapped on her head was pretty shotty. Better than nothing though.

When we got to the hospital Eithan and I carried Anna inside to the ER and checked ourselves in, shortly after, seeing as it was dealing with head injury and an unconscious patient, Anna was admitted.

Eithan and I sat outside the room she had been brought into in silence as we waited for the doctors to finish up. She needed 4 stitches and monitoring.

"So about the party-" Eithan began.

"Let's not go there." I cut him off.

"But-"

"Eithan." I gave him a stern look. He folded his arms, leant back on his chair and stared at the skirting or the wall in front.

After around 4 hours of being in the hospital, and a couple of trips to the cafeteria, the doctors lead Anna to a bed and we were allowed to see her. She had woken up by now, but was drowsy.

"Wah.. what hap-haphed?"

I heard a snicker and stomped on Eithan's foot.

"You tripped on your own foot. Anna we didn't even end up watching netflix and you got yourself bleeding and unconscious." I sunk down into the chair on the bed's side and stared at her.

"Don't be so emotionless Li-"

Anna stirred and groaned in pain. "If Lila wasn't emotionless I'd worry I'd done something good." She rolled over and faced me. I rolled my eyes.

"You're a clutz. I just had to spend 5 hours with your brother Anna."

"Aw you cared enough to sit through that for me?"

"Shutup." I mumbled.

From the corner of my eye Eithan was getting agitated. "What's so bad about me huh?"

It was 1am. I didn't get my writing finished. Mr. Barnes is going to be enthused tomorrow. Almost as enthused as I was right now. Anna started to drift off to sleep again. At least she's not in pain.

I fell asleep in the chair.
