AMBER'S POV

We were all having a dance party, Scott, Mitch, and I, when my side started hurting. Not from exhaustion like when you're running. It started hurting, the place where I was hit hard by the kids at school. It real bad so I couldn't help but wince and I had to sit down. Mitch came over first. Scott turned off the music and then came over. "What's wrong Amber?" he asked.

I pulled up my shirt to show them. "What happened?!" Mitch asked me surprised. "The kids at school the day I ran away did that." I said to him. He hugged me while Scott got an ice pack for it.

I must've fallen asleep in Mitch's lap because I woke up in my room and I don't remember going to my room last night. I went downstairs. Mitch and Scott weren't downstairs. "Mitch? Scott?" I yelled starting to freak out. No answer. I sunk to the ground and started to hyperventilating and crying. I was starting to feel lightheaded. I hadn't had an attack since they found me. Yes, when they found me I had an anxiety attack. Mitch and Scott got home at just the right time.

MITCH'S POV

When we got back from Starbucks that morning, Amber was on the floor freaking out. "Oh my gosh Amber!" I screeched, probably not helping the situation. Oops. Scott rushed over to her. She was unconscious now. I didn't know what to do. "Call Kevin," Scott said, "He'll know what to do about it." I called Kevin and he came right over.

He told us to lay her down somewhere so we put her on the couch. A few minutes later Avi and Kevin were knocking on the door. I let them in and Kevin went right to where Amber was. He checked her over. "We should probably take her to the hospital just to make sure she's ok." Kevin said. "But can't you do that?!" I said to him, I didn't really like hospitals. "I can't be sure." he told me as he stood up. So now we were taking Amber to the hospital.

We were in the waiting room. Amber had been taken to a room to be checked out and we weren't aloud in. I had begged the doctor to let me go with but, he didn't give in. The doctor came out and told us that Amber had an anxiety attack and that she used to get them often according to her hospital records. She was allowed out in a few hours. We went and saw her, she was awake now and she looked relieved to see all of us.

"Hey guys." she said to us, she looked really tired. "Hey Amber." I said, kneeling down next to her. "How are you feeling?" Avi asked her. "Tired, but other than that okay." she replied. "I'm sorry I didn't tell you before," she said after Avi and Kevin left, "I was afraid you would take me to an orphanage because you didn't want to deal with it." she said. "Amber! We would never do that! We care about you." Scott told her. I nodded my head.

We went back home with Amber and she went to sleep when we got back. I called the doctor and asked him to mail me all of her hospital records just in case she wasn't telling us something. The doctor said he couldn't do that but I could set up an appointment with the doctor to see them. I set up an appointment just for me so Amber wouldn't get suspicious. I told Scott what I was doing and left.

Turns out, Amber told us everything and I was just not trusting her. After finding out she had told us everything I felt guilty for not trusting her. I went home to Scott and told him. "Don't feel guilty," he said, "you were just being responsible and making sure she gets the help she needs." Amber came down after a while and said she was hungry. "What do you want?" I asked her. She looked at the coffees we had got this morning but never drank. "Let's go to Starbucks!" she said perking up a bit. We went to Starbucks and ordered. We brought the drinks back home and watched Spongebob until it was late.

Two more chapters today. Unless I'm feeling nice, then I might write one and upload it...
