Chapter 22

I rush over to him and pull him into my arms,he's bleeding from his head with his eyes softly close.

"Ben." I whisper as my voice cracks into tears,I not is that he's bleeding into my dress but I don't seem to care about that. All I want to care about is him "Ben.. Ben. I just need you to hang on. SOMEONE HELP ME!"
"An ambulance is on it's way!" A woman calls,running across the streets. It's safe for her,everyone has stopped,everyone's crowding around,I even notice a few people looking from the office.

Once the ambulance comes they rush Ben into it,I don't let myself loosen the grip on his hand. It's freezing cold but that doesn't bother me.

"Is he going to be okay?" I ask the Doctor who's treating Ben.
"I can't say yet love. Are you his wife or something? It's family only."
"I'm his sister." I have to lie.
"Okay,good. We'll try the best we can."
"Please do."

I'm not allowed to go in as he's in the hospital. I feel sick and guilty. Just sitting there in the waiting room.

Just as I'm about to get some water I see a little girl come sit beside me. She's about five seven.crystal blue eyes,pale skin but she's got know hair. It breaks my heart.

I just smile at her sweetly.

"Hello." She says.
"Hi."
"What's your name?"
"Margo. What's your name?"
"I'm Ellie."

I then notice the barbie in her hands.

"I like your Barbie."
"Thank you."
"Do you have a Ken doll too?"
"No,I have like fifty at my house but they didn't let me bring all of them."
"Well,at least you've got this one."
"Yeah. I love her."

That's when I notice someone say her name,I turn my head to see a nurse talking to someone,I'm pretty sure it's her mum. She's crying,hand over mouth. I then realise what's happening and look back to Ellie who's combing her Barbies long,blonde hair with one of those small pink brushes. I have to bite my lip to keep from crying.

"You know I've never had a Barbie." I tell her.
"You must get one."
"I'll try."
"And a Ken."

I laugh slightly "Of course."
"Ellie!" Her mum calls,walking towards her. She's all shook up "Come on sweetie we need to go see Dr Lou.
"Okay mummy." The girl turns to me for a second then presses the Barbie into my hands "Here."
"No." I give it back to her "I can't take it."
"I've got thousands at home,like I told you before."
"But you love this one the most."
"You have a Barbie now,that's only fair."
"Take it dear." Her mum says,smiling at me sweetly.
"Okay." I feel like I'm about to cry "Thank you."
"Bye Margo."

The girl waves at me then walks away,holding her mothers hand. Once they're gone I hold the barbie against my chest,waiting for news about Ben. It seems like hours but I know that's what happens.

I get up and walk along the long corridors,trying to figure out what room he's in,in the end I don't.

"Margo!"

I look to see Max.

"Is Ben okay?"
"Don't pretend to care."
"I'm being serious."

I roll my eyes then walk away,father from his as possible.

He's a fake,only in it for himself.

But this not my top priority right now,I need to find Ben.
