Hathor rushes through the hospital as she saw Tim, Rachel, Freddy and Scott in the waiting lobby. 

She said, walking towards them, with a curious look in her eyes. In her wildest dreams that she never thought of seeing Ashley in a hospital.

"Is it true? All of it, about what the Hofferson's did in the beach?"

The teens were silent, as if they knew the truth all along. Hathor sighs as she leans into a chair nearby. 

"I can't believe this is actually happening." She said, as Rachel said, "I didn't want to believe it either, but it seems like Hayden didn't like it one bit. 

When I tried to talk to him about what he knows about what the Hofferson's, his fists flexes in anger, so I decided to drop it. " 

"That bad, huh? " Hathor said. 

Rachel said, looking at the operation room, "I still remember of how much pain I've felt when Hayden went through those doors. 

It scared me, Hathor. Maybe there is more than what Ashley hid in her life that I didn't realize." 

Tim said, "Sis, you have to be the one to talk to Ashley when she wakes up. She needs a friend right now. 

I... I know you and Ash didn't see eye to eye because of all the horrible things she has done to you. 

Maybe it's time for the both of you to redeem yourselves from the past mistakes." 

Hayden came out of the room, which Rachel walks to her boyfriend, "She's-" 

"Going to be all right, for starters. Having her faint is just a reaction to what she has been through. If I see those parents of hers hitting her..." He said. 

Rachel said, "I'm going in." 

Ashley opens her eyes, as she realizes that she was in a hospital room. 

As she examines her bruises, someone came in, as she was stunned to see of who came to visit her.  

"R-Rachel?" She stutters in total shock, as the Cheerleader closes the door behind her. 

"Hey. I'm glad that you're awake. Hayden and the others were extremely worried about you when you fainted." She explains as the teen seems kind of relieved that there were some people who cared enough to bring her to the hospital. 

"Still , I'm not that thrilled of seeing you again. " Rachel said , crossing her arms, "You changed my life completely these past three months. " 

Ashley cups her hands as she said, "Yeah, I kind of regret it . I didn't know that the car accident would have such an effect on you and Hayden. 

For that, I'm truly sorry. It's not easy for me to make any friends , not if you had abusive parents." 

Rachel said, "Why didn't you say something, ask for help?" 

"I couldn't, Rach. I just can't. I have to obey my parents, even though they abuse me." She replied , but Rachel said, "Ash, you can't stay like this! 

I mean, look of what they done to you! I can't let this happen." She rushes towards the doorway, but Ashley said, "Rachel, please. Don't do this, besides, having you here, makes me feel happier back at home." 

Rachel smiles a bit, then both girls seems to start to get along. 

It was until 9pm, that Rachel had to go. 

Rachel saw the text from Hayden. 

"Hey, babe. I was worried about you getting along with Ashley. Is everything all right?"

She texts back, "Yeah, it's cool. She said that she might be able to join up with us for school tomorrow. " 

"Great! I really need her advise on something, and don't worry , it's not for a date." 

"Whatever you say, Haddock. " 

She doesn't know that Ashley and the gang would surprise her big time... 

For Prom.
