" I'm sorry Miss, I can't give that kind of information over the phone."
" Alright, I'll be there as soon as I can." With that I hung up and stood there kind of daze. As soon as my mind went to my brother again I went over back to Nick.
" Hey who was on the phone?"
" Um, Nick. I need you to drive me to the hospital."
" What?! Why?"
" Samantha and Keith were in an accident"
" Oh my God, are they alright?"
" I-I don't know? They wouldn't tell me." He wrapped his arms around me and gave me a hug.
" I'm sure they are both fine. You go start the car and I'll let the others know where we are." He kissed my forehead and I went outside.
Nick walked around the dance floor looking for the guys. Brian and Leigh were the first he spotted.
" Bri, I need to speak to you."
" Sure Nick, what's up?"
" I have to bring Anastasia to the hospital her-"
" What happened to her?!" Brian cut him off.
" Her brother and Samantha were in an accident. That's all we know so we're going down. Let the other's know and I'll give you a call later."
" Alright Nick. Tell her my prayers are with her." Brian patted Nick on the back and went back to Leigh Ann.
ON THE WAY TO THE HOSPITAL
Most of the way to the hospital I was quiet. I guess I was afraid that if I spoke I'd cry. Once I started crying I probably wouldn't have been able to stop, and I needed to be strong for my brother and Sam.
" Hun, your brother is strong. And I'm sure he's taking care of Sam, or even the other way around." I nodded my head and played with my necklace. Nick stopped at a red light and stared at me. I heard him laugh a little and I looked at him confused " Your so cute." He smiled which of course made me smile. The light went to green and he started. " I remember when we were younger, every time you were nervous or scared you'd play with that necklace I gave you." He paused for a moment. " I'm glad things didn't change that much." He took my hand and kissed it.
Another 15 minutes and we pulled into the parking lot. Nick came by me and put his arm around my shoulders. We walked in and went to the front desk. " Um excuse me." I asked a young women, about in her twenties.
" Keith Robinson and Samantha Derose were brought here about an hour ago."
" Oh yes. Here fill these papers out and I'll get a Dr. to come talk to you. Have seat over in those chairs please." She smiled and I went to sit down.
After about thirty minutes of filling out tons of paper work I was finally done. Nick had held my hand through the whole time because he knew how hard this was for me.
" Where is that damned Doctor?!" I said standing up.
" He's probably attending to patients. Come sit back down." I didn't listen though and I began to pace back and forth, clinging on the necklace.
" Robinson?" A Dr. in his late forties asked holding a clip board.
" YES?!" I asked walking up to him. " How is my brother and Sam?"
" Please follow me." Nick took my hand once again and we went into an office. " Have a seat please." Nick and I took seats next to each other.
" As you already know, Mr. Robinson and Miss Derose were in an accident. Or so you were told." I nodded my head and waited intently. " However it wasn't an accident."
