him up!" I said.
"Oh, sorry." Mum whispered.
I smiled at her.
"Who punched you?" Dad asked.
"A guy in my class called Cameron Dale."
"What has happened to him?"
"I don't know..."
Dad just nodded and went silent.
"You guys go and get some rest. I have to get some more." I said.
"We're not leaving." Mum stated.
"Please mum!"
"No.."
"Yes. Please!"
"Why?"
"In case of stuff that has to be done tomorrow. I can't sleeping with people watching." I said.
"Okay.... But only because you said so. If anything bad happens I'm blaming you." Mum said showering me in kisses once again. Dad kissed me goodbye and Ash just lightly hit me.
I rolled over and watched them passed the window. "Good night Tom." I said. I rolled over and allowed myself to be washed away in the sea of sleep.

I once again woke up yo the sound of the machine beeping but this time when I rolled over there was a smiling tried face not a sleeping one.
"Hello!"
"Hey Tom!"
"How's your head?"
"Um sore."
"I will get him for you."
"Haha no you won't." I laughed.
"No seriously I will." He said standing up and doing all of these 'ninja' moves which made me laugh harder.
"Sit down before you smash a machine." I ordered sitting up in the bed.
"Haha whatever you say but it is official that I hate Cameron now." He said leaning back in the seat.
"Yeah well I do as well." He just laughed.
A nurse knocked on the door and came in holding a tray. "Hello, I've just brought you some food to eat." She smiled as sh placed the tray on the tray holder thing on the end of the bed. She rolled it along so I could reach it.
"Thank you!" I smiled at her as she left. I looked down at the tray and it was like camp food. There was a piece of toast with a small bit of butter with a choice of vegemite or jam to go with it. There was also a little cup of apple juice and one of those custard.
"Want something to eat?" I asked Tom.
"Um okay... What can I have."
"The toast and juice." I replied instantly.
"Don't you like apple juice?" He asked buttering the toast.
"No I do but sugar liquid might give me more of a headache." I explained crinkling my nose.
"oh, okay." He gulped down the juice and shoved the toast in his mouth. I laughed at him. "What?"
"Oh you just reminded me of something Jess said the other day." I smiled spooning up the custard.
"What did she say?" He enquired finishing the toast.
"Um, 'boys are the same species as pigs.'"
"Oh ha ha. I eat like a pig." He said. I smiled down at the tray as I finished the custard. I swallowed the water and pushed the table thing away.
"Why did you stay here last night?" I asked.
"Oh, I just wanted to be here when you woke up." He replied.
"Why?"
"Why do you ask so many questions?" He said adjusting himself showing I was clearly making him awkward.
"Because I'm a curious little girl, or don't you remember?" I giggled.
"Oh right." He rolled his eyes and smiled.
The doctor came in just then accompanied by the nurse that gave me the food. She came over picked up the tray and smiled. I smiled back and she left the room.
"Hello Jasmine." The doctor said glancing over the top of his glasses. "I'm Dr Burns."
"Hello."
"How are you?" he asked signing a bit of paper that was on a metal clipboard.
"I have a bad headache, is that normal?" I asked.
"Yes just take some pain killers and I suggest you stay home for the next couple of days."
"Oh okay." I said.
"You should be able to go home. Just brush your teeth and we will call your parents." Dr Burns said gesturing to the mini bathroom. He tucked the clipboard under his arm and left the room.

I swung my legs over the edge of the bed and shuffled over to the bathroom.
"Legs asleep?" I heard Tom yell.
"Yeah." I shouted back, lathering the tooth paste on the tooth brush and brushed my teeth furiously for two whole minutes. I washed everything and washed out my mouth. I trudged out of the bathroom and Tom and I were ushered out of the room by the tray nurse. We awaited my family's arrival in the waiting room. We sat behind a fake plant and whispered a conversation so the receptionist didn't get mad. Soon my loved ones came through the doors and gave me lots of hugs.
School Confrontation


We drove back to school (by request of me) in a awkward silence. It was awkward because I had to squeeze in the middle to fit Ash, Tom and myself in the back. Dad focused on the road and mum just hummed along to the songs on the radio. Ash just stared out the window. He was in his senior uniform and had his hand over his mouth. Tom sat to one side of me with his hands together and staring out the window.

Dad parked on the side of the road opposite the school. Even though I was told not to run and make sudden movements, I ran. I ran straight to L4 where 7-2 had their second period on Thursdays. 7-4 was still in there so I waited outside the door. Not long after Tom caught up with up me.
"Don't run. You're parents are in the office by the way." Tom said coming to a halt beside me.
"Eh, figured as much. You can't tell me what to do." I said.
"I'm only be cautious for your sake."
"You don't need to be." I smiled at him.
"Well tough it out biotch!" He said.
"Biatch, I already have." I laughed.
He smiled and laughed silently even though it wasn't necessary.

Soon enough the irritating bell echoed around us.
Before 7-4 came out of the classroom I said to Tom, "oh by the way, Reed is in this class."
His face lit up. "Really?"
"Yup."
Soon swarms of 7-4ers came out of L4. Various friends of mine said hello and stopped and asked what happened because I had a giant band aid on my face. I just said I was fine and not to worry although I'm pretty sure they already knew what happened. Tom went off and talked to Reed and I awaited the friendly faces of my dearest friends. I stepped up on the stairs and watched the other students pass by. I saw Jess walking along chatting with Zoe and Maddy. I smiled when saw them. Jess her head and when she saw me she did a double take. She bolted down the stairs and wrapped me in a giant bear hug.
"JASI CAKES! DON"T EVER LEAVE ME AGAIN!" She yelled into my arms.
"I wouldn't dream of it!" I said hugging her back. Zoe and Maddy came jogging down the stair and I gave them hugs too.
Cameron came down the stairs, alone. "Jess don't run away from me again." He warned.
Jess just rolled her eyes at him and said "piss off." under her breath.
"You do not have any right to tell her what to do." I said stepping in between him and Jess.
"Still at school I see. Was the one punch not enough to get you to stay home for a month? Come back for more have you?" He said mockingly.
"You don't have to be a jerk!" Jess yelled pouting. Tom came up the stairs and pushed me and Jess back. He punched Cameron square in the face.
"A real man never hits a girl- oops, guess that means I'm not a real man anymore," he said.
"Excuse me?" Cameron said. "What is it with guys at this school and that chick?"
"That 'chick' is a person." I said standing next to Tom.
"Okay then.."
"Shut up Cameron." I spat. "You don't own Jess and you cannot possibly think that hitting me would help you with her because you over looked one major detail that only a blind person would miss. Jess is my BEST friend, not your slave. Got it?" I said. I spun around and hugged Tom. "Thank you!" I whispered into his ear.
"Its okay." He whispered back.
Mr Ridgeway came around the corner. "What are you DOING!"
"Sir, Cameron abused me yesterday." I said pointing to face band aid.
"Yesterday?"
"Yes!" He looked from Cameron to me.
"Then why is he the one holding his face?"
"Because he-"
"Because I gave him what he wants." Tom said cutting me off.
"Oh and what is that? Getting hit in the face by another girl defending that?" Cameron mocked.
"No, showing you how much 'power' you have." Tom said.
"Wow must be a lot because only the popular have a way with the girls." Cameron winked at him.
I grabbed Tom's arm to stop him from hitting him again.
"SIR! You can't let him get away with this! Assault and BULLYING!" Jess exclaimed.
"Jess, its okay." I said. "Sir I'm sorry for any disturbances but I suggest that Cameron comes with me to the office while you start the lesson."
"Jasi? What are you doing?" Jess whispered.
"Getting fair justice." I said. "Bye guys! Hopefully I'll be at school by next week." I waved goodbye and pushed Cameron forward.

I led the way up the stairs on our way to the office.
"You basically just saved me from that friend of your that hits like a girl. I think I'll just get away with bruise." He said.
I stopped walking and he walked straight into me. I spun around to face him and my ponytail hit me in the eye. "Cameron just shut up! He is a way better person then you are. Just face it he is more willing to look out for friend than you are. So don't stand there bitch to me about how he punches you."
"Why do you care about him so much?" He asked.
I just ignored his question and continued talking. "I don't care about how he hits, which don't tell him that because it is classified as bullying, I need to talk to you about your obsession with Jess." I snapped.
"What do you wanna know?" He said flexing his muscles.
"That doesn't work on me you know. Anyway, Jess won't trust you again after what you did. None of my friends will. Jess is very important to me and I care about her. If you lay a finger on her that think will help you get her, you will have to answer to me. Got it? Or is that too hard for you to understand?" I said.
"Why would you do that
