Visiting hours (Jordan and Katie friends)

[quidditchgrl34]

((All of Katie and Jordan friends can post here and I will post as Katie trap in her thoughts and child hood memiores.))

Katie lay in her bed motionless. She was breathing but not moving. She loked peaceful as she laid in rhe bed liked she was almost to die. Her face was badly burised and had a bandage on it where her father had hit her and knocked her out. But shortly after he had hit her Jordan hit him on the head with a lamp killing him. "Yo, Abuser. Yes you. No, the other one in this room. I'm sorry your wife died. And I'm sorry, you don't love Katie. But, please sir, keep your hands to yourself." Katie could hear the words echo in her head. She laid motionless and the montier still beat slowly. Ealier she had supposly died but she came back again and was traped leaving her in a comma.

Her brown hair was untidy and she looked horrible. Katie wished she could just wake up but her body wonted let her. She couldnt even move and she wished that she could see her sister again and her dear friends. Katie than could see her sister face smiling at her that gave her the strength to wake up soon. But soon after she had the strength she went back to the desert land and sat on the ground with her legs crossed. She trempled and her clothes looked horrible and her giutar lay in her lap broken.

[JordanCortes]

Yo, Abuser. Yes you. No, the other one in this room. I'm sorry your wife died. And I'm sorry, you don't love Katie. But, please sir, keep your hands to yourself.

I killed a man. I'm souless. I killed a man. It doesn't matter how horrible and intolerable he is. I killed him. I took his life from him.

THERE ISN'T ANYTHING YOU CAN DO! IT'S ALL MY FAULT!JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!

Why do you care? Why does it matter to you? You don't know me. You didn't know me until just a few seconds ago. So, leave me alone.

I'm so sorry. So sorry. It's all my fault.

Jordan repeated those 5 quotes over in her head all the time. She did it while she slept, ate, studied, and tried to smile. It was all a nightmare. A really bad nightmare that she wished she could wake up from. All a nightmare in which she wanted to wake up from. Guilt. Sadness. Hope. And anxiety. Those were all words that described her at the moment. She had gon einto a depression, something that wasn't like Jordan in any way at all.

As Jordan neared the hospital room, in which Katie's life hung on the line, her heart began to beat faster with every step. Why was she coming back? She would only feel worse...but, Jordan knew why she returned. She came back because, Katie deserved company and Jordan couldn't give up hope. That little glimmer in her eye was there wherever she went, but it dimmed each day.

The door stood open and Jordan just walked in, she set her book bag down by the door and looked around the room. It was once white, not it was vibrant with color. Flowers were set on every surface and it brought out a color in the walls that wasn't there before. Glass rian hung by the opened window and swang gently as the wind breezed by and ruffled the white lace curtains. It seemed so peaceful. But, it was just the opposite.

[AmeliaBlack]

Amelia walked into the hospital room where Jordan stood by Katie's bed. Her eyes instantly filled with tears at the peacefully sleeping form of Katie in the hospital bed. Amelia walked forward, nervously touching the petals of the lilacs in her hand. She didn't look in Jordan's eye as she laid the lilacs down on the table next to Katie's bed. She looked down at Katie then. The peacefull look on her face was enough to make a grown man cry. Katie always smiled, but now as she laid there. She wasn't smiling, she was just laying there. Amelia hid her tears by brushing her fingers underneith her eyes as she looked out the window.

"Jordan, I'm so sorry," she placed a hand on Katie's motionless hand. She sat down in a chair and let the tears fell.

"I barely knew her," she looked at Jordan, "I'm just... sorry."

[Copenhagen]

Justin looked around and he realised he had finally reached Katies' room. He turned the nob and walked in. He saw that Jordan and Amelia were both in there with him. He closed the door quietly and walked over to them. He was still in his snowboarding outfit and had some snow on him. He spoke aloud " Hey Amelia ,hey Jordan." He then walked over to the other side of the bed and sat down in a chair across from Jordan. He then said "What happened Jordan?" his voice was quiet as he could get it and he looked at Katies' face and wondered what was going to happen to her. He her hair out of her face and waited for Jordans reply.

[JordanCortes]

Jordan looked up at Justin, a little more glare in her eyes then she would have liked. She stood up abruptly from her chair and grabbed her jacket.

"Can't people just let it be?! God! What are you?! The paprazzi!! What happened to katie is private! If she wants to tell you, then she'll do so when she wakes!" Jordan said in a tone that was unlike her own. She threw open the door and left the hospital room. She was getting so sick and tired of people asking what happened! Then, she had to explain everything...she didn't think it was her place to tell everyone abotu Katie's past so, she got all mad and stormed off, feeling irritable.

[quidditchgrl34]

Katie lay in her bed wondering what was happening around her. She than was forced to watch a scene that lay before her. She was at the age of four siting at the big dinner table. Katie was in her chair eating her food in silence. She was happy and never had the experiense of being hurt before. "Take a drink of your milk dear." Katie mother told her and katie picked up the large glass and held it to her mouth and drank. Then suddenly as she piut it back it spilled all over the table. Katie father than got up and kocked Katie out of the chair. He looked at her with those ice eyes and throw the chair at the four year old. "Never spill your milk again do you hear me?" he told her in his cold voice. He than walked over towards the girl and picked her up by the hair and throw her into the living room. Katie started to cry and she felt her side side and a big burise lay where her ribs were. Katie than ran up to her room and locked the door hearing her mother and father fight down stairs. Their voices echoed off the walls and Katie hid in the corner of her room rocking back and forth holding her stuffed horse in her arms and crying.

Katie than was back to being on the desert staring off into space. Shel looked confused and her guitar lay in her lap broken and untouch. Katie fogot how to played and the wind blew making her hair go all around. Just then she felt some one touch her hand and Katie than tired to wiggle her fingers but nothing happen. She lay in her bed motionless. The frail body didnt look like it could go on any more. She had fought for weeks to kept in the land of the living. Once was she almost taken away but she came back and traped in her thoughts.

As Katie heard another fimalar voice around her. Then the when she sat on the sandy ground Katie than noticed that her guitar was fixed but she completly forgot how to play. Katie hand than squezzed Amelias. It was the first movement she had made in weeks. Her skinny swarny hand squeezed Amelias with only a little force. If her eyes were open she would be crying and she wished thats he could just wake up. The squeezed she made said that she either could hear what they were saying or that she didnt have an another ounce of strength left in her to carry on. As she heard the door closed Katie groaned, "J..J... Jordan?" Katie whispered from the bed. She had never talked in weeks but Katie knew if she couldnt make it she had to say her good-byes. Her body seemed to let her as she still laid motionless on the bed.

Elizabeth nervously walked into the Hospital in which Katie lay. "Wait here mum. I'll be fine." Elizabeth kissed her mother and walked down the long hallway. It seemed to take an eternity to get to Katie's room. When She reached the door she just stood there staring at the knob, not wanting to see the motionless Katie and the sad people that would be surrounding her. Before Elizabeth could even decide, the door was threw open by a very angry looking Jordan. "Jordan, Jordan!!! where are you going!?" Elizabeth screamed. She ran after Jordan in spite of the fact that she knew Jordan did not want to talk to anyone. When Elizabeth had caught up se looked at Jordan with tear-filled eyes. "Jordan, Jordan . . . just listen to me . . . . I need to talk to you, this isn't going be about Katie or about what your doing to yourself, I know that's your buisness . . . . But what the hell do you think your doing? Your taking this out on everyone and everything, your even blaming this on yourself . . . none of this is yours or anyone else's fault . . . you gotta understand that. Please, before you get all mad at me just hear me out. We have all been through an ordeal, only your the one suffering the most. i don't know what you've been through and I won't pretend to, but please I want you to know that you can always talk to me because I care about you and Katie." At that Elizabeth turned on her heel and walked away towards Katie's room crying softly, sounds echoing off the walls.

when she reached katie's room she was still crying softly. She saw Justin and Amelia sitting around looking completley miserable. Elizabeth walked over to Katie's bed. She saw her bandaged head, her motionless body, and her peaceful-looking eyes. "Oh Katie, I'm so sorry . . . I should've been there . . . I should've protected you." she whispered, a single tear fell onto Katie's hand. Elizabeth grabbed it, holding it close to her heart. She stood there holding Katie's hand and crying silently. She didn't care what anyone thought of her, Katie was Elizabeth's best friend, she had a right to cry. The crying stopped when she could cry no more and silence fell among the room, an errie silence. Elizabeth was now to sorrowful to weep and so all she could do was stand there in a wave of depression.

[JordanCortes]

Jordan just stood there, in disbelief. Her eyes wider then she wanted them to be. What? Is? Oh? She didn't speak though, she just sat there and stared at Elizabeth. THen the rage came back as the girl left and Jordan continued on her rampage down the hall. On the way she passed her two brothers and glared at them.

"What are you doing out here?" Justin Cortes asked her. Jordan flipped her hair over her shoulder and stared down at her twin brother. He raised his eyebrow at her and waited impatiently for her answer. She stamped her foot and sighed with a whine as she didn't answer. So, in swift movement, Justin was up, had his hand on his sister's arm and pulling her back to Katie's room.

"I don't know what has gotten into you, but it needs to stop...now." He told her as he opened the door, and gently pushed her in. So she wouldn't leave, he came in also and closed the door behind him. Jordan sighed and sat down in the corner away from everybody. She needed to be away. And she needed to be alone. She needed to gid rid of this pain.

[Copenhagen]

Justin just stared at Jordan as she vented off some anger at him. As she left Justin let out a soft whistle ,just as Elizabeth entered the room. He watched as she grabbed Katies' hand and he collected his thoughts . He still did'nt know the whole story and was wondering when he would find out. So he looked at Elizabeth and finally talked. He spoke softly and said " Hey Liz , it's ok ,I know she'll be ok." Even as he spoke these words he felt that she would recover. He sat there watching as Elizabeth cried over Katie and wondered what would happen next.

[sky]

Elizabeth gently put down Katie's hand when she heard Justin talk. She put her hand to her locket - the locket that Katie had given her. "Hello Justin, I know it will be alright, I know she'll make it . . . I'm just scared." Elizabeth wiped away the tears with her sleeve and looked up at Justin. She needed to talk to someone. She couldn't talk to Jordan without her getting mad, so Justin seemed to be the only person she could talk to without breaking out in tears. He would understand.

"I don't suppose you know . . . what all happened?" As far as Elizabeth knew Jordan had only told a few people including herself.

[Copenhagen]

Justin loked at Liz as she talked and Jusin said " Nah ,nobodies told me anything ,except that Katie got hurt. Can you tell me everything?" Justins' eyes showed that he was filled with sorrow for what had happened to Katie and he looked t Liz and felt that they were both feeling the same thing ,but Justin just was'nt the one crying.

[JordanCortes]

Jordan looked up at Elizabeth. Elizabeth knew. Jordan had told her. Jordan's eyes teared and she shook her head as she stood up and walked to Elizabeth, she kneeled down next to the girl and said;

"Don't tell him. Katie will tell him when she feels it. She will wake up. And she will tell him. Please, Elizabeth don't tell him. Not everyone needs to know." Her voice was shakey, and the ters threatened to fall. She couldn't take another person knwoing.

[sky]

Elizabeth looked at Jordan and at Justin. Jordan told her in the first place and Elizabeth couldn't tell another person if she wanted to. "Justin I can't . . ." Elizabeth said looking at the pain in Jordan's eyes. "Katie will tell you." Elizabeth said softly and sat down. It was hard, she did want to tell Justin and she didn't. "I havn't told anyone, I havn't even mentioned it at all, only talked about it with you." She wanted to tell someone how she felt but looked at Jordan and knew that she couldn't and wouldn't. Elizabeth clutched her locket and stared off into space, wishing that she could talk to someone that wouldn't get angry, that would understand.

[JordanCortes]

Jordan took a sigh of relief as Elizabeth didn't tell Justin. She then felt the urge to hold Katie's hand. She moved over, and kneeled down next to her sister's bed. Her hand moved slightly to Katie's, but she stopped. Wondering if she should, Jordan bit her lip and grabbed Katie's hand gently. She then gasped...

[quidditchgrl34]

Katie listen all around her at the soft voice. She sat on the ground trempling wildly and neer seemed to get better. She felt hurt inside, "No" Katie whispered from the bed a very faint whisper. She than felt Jordan hand and Katie gasped it tight in her weak grib. Then something came up it was Katie on the ground breathing hard and Jordan in the corener of the room trying not to watch. Jordan rose slowly and picked up the lamp but she didnt hit Katie father she stared at him with her eyes widden in shock. Katie father than walked over towards Katie and kicked kicking her and she than was dead not breathing. Blood lay on the flour and Katie burised body lay on the ground motionless dead. Mr. Davenport than picked up the body and turned towards Jordan who looked firghten. He laughed coldy and grabbed the shovel and walked outside and started to dig. As he finshed he put Katie fragil body into the hole and burried her inside.

Katie than gasped for air and her eyes open for a spilt second and they closed again and she felt her heart beat fast. What had just happen and why did it happen. Katie grabed Jordan hand and squezzed tighter as she told her that she didnt do anything wrong. "J....J.......Jordan y.....y....you didnt do anything wrong." Katie said and let go of Jordan hand and went back to the desert. She sat on the ground trempling more and rocking back and forth.

[JordanCortes]

Jordan gasped and fell back, her eyes closed tightly and her breathing ragged. She lay on the floor her eyes closed and breathing fast. She finally slowed down in her breathing to hear Katie tell her she did nothing wrong, and for once. Jordan believed it. She stood up and looked around the group.

"My god...I ddin't do...I. My god." She said. She put her hands over her face and lowered her head, crying only slightly. But, they were tears of relief of and tears of fright. She had seen something she hadn't wanted to see. But, she felt, she needed to see it.

[sky]

Elizabeth looked up at Jordan gasped and heard Katie talk softly. "Katie . . . Katie" Elizabeth whispered she stood up and walked to the other side of the bed to hear what Katie was saying. Elizabeth bent close and held onto Katie's hand. And just as suddenly as she began talking she stopped. Elizabeth fell back, her hand on her head, she was trembling, but she did not let go of Katie's hand. Another tear fell onto Elizabeth's lap, a single tear.

[VanessaLink]

Vanessa looked around the hospital, her eyes taking the whole site. She had only been in the hospital once, and that was when her mother died and she was severly burned. She hated everything about hospitals, the smell, the color, the sound, everything. And she really didn't like the fact that one of her friend's was in it. In her right hand she held Kyle's guitar, which she had borrowed once again, and in her left she held a bag with her music in it. If Vanessa knew one thing, it was that music woke up some coma patients, and she knew it would wake Katie up.

After asking the nurse which room Katie Davenport was in, she made her way to the room with fear. Turning the silver knob she pushed open the door gently and looked around the room. Jordan stood at the edge of Katie's bed and Vanessa, dropped her things instantly before hugging her friend, well ex-friend. She then pulled away and sighed before looking at Katie. She seemed so calm, but so battered. So frail. Vanessa didn't like it. She bent down and opened the guitar case, put the strap around her neck, and began to play.

"
Watch her as she flew deep within the blue
The day out from the county I.C.U.
There's nothing you can do
Someone gently says to you
The doctor says that now it won't be long
I try and live up til the moment and I hope that I don't blow it
And what is it in me that she hears?
It's just a song she likes
Her little arms around my neck
And a sleeping girl whispers in my ear..." Vanessa sang. The song, originally was for Annie, but since she wasn't here and could never hear the lyrics or the music that came from Vanessa's mouth or fingertips, it was Katie's.

"Years for you and I, oh Katie
More to life than trying to survive, oh Katie
Watch her as she flew deep within the blue
Watch her as she slips away from you
I'll keep fingers crossed always for you." Vanessa finished, she then stopped. And sighed. She wasn't nervous, she didn't speak but she knew if she did she wouldn't stutter. Katie gave her courage, so much courage and this made Vanessa pray even more.

((Lyrics by Vanessa Carlton; Oh Annie; Annie changed to Katie))

[quidditchgrl34]

Katie than heard the sweet sound of music around her. Her lips curled into a smile and as the desert in her mind changed into a beautiful forrest with a water fal and a long river. Katie than was standing up dressed in a beautiful long white dress that flow in the wind. Her guitar than was on her shoulders and she started to play. The sweet melody filled the land in katie thoughts and she smiled and twirled around. She was back and nothing bad crossed her mind.

Just then the nurse came into the room and told her friends to leave and that it was visting hours for family. As everyone left Katie than moved her hand and her lips still curled up into a smile. Their was more light on her face and she moved her fragill body saying that she was alright.

[JordanCortes]

Jordan watched as everyone left and she looked down at Katie. The girl was smiling and she was moving. Would Katie remember anything Jordan told her if she told her? Jordan needed to tell someone, and she had been holding it back from everybody and they couldn't understand without her telling them this secret. The secret she trusted only a dead man with.

Jordan pulled the chair up to Katie's bed and sat down on it, her legs crossed and her hands in her lap. She was getting ready to tell Katie everything. And Jordan did intend on telling her everything. Jordan's eyes moved to Katie's and she stared intently on the shut lids of her little sister's.

"Katie. There's something, I have to tell you. And I am really hoping you won't remember any of this,because it will pain me to hear you speak of what I am about to say. Katie. I blame myself for everything, but not because I could have done something about it. No, if it was only that...then this would be easy to say, but because I enjoyed killing your father, as I killed him. Then, when I realized I had killed a human being and enjoyed it, I just...I lost all touch of humanity in me. People whisper about me in the hallways, or talk about me behind my back and it gets tiring. There really isn't much to do, or say. Just that my pain is so much trouble for me that only way to get rid of the stress is to give my blood. I trade my blood for yours. And each day I draw that blade across my wrist, not deep no I'm not that stupid, but just enough to ease the stress from my life. And I have to admit, it does help." Jordan whispered, but her voice was loud enough for Katie to hear, she was sure of it. And she didn't mumble, her diction was great so Katie could understand.

"And when people ask me why I do it..and what you would do if you knew, I can't answer truthfullly. I tell them to bugger off and walk away. But, I have to tell you and I'm sure you will understand. I do it because, it's an escape hatch from this world. When I bleed, I'm gone. And when they ask me what you would do, I think the same thing. You would wouldn't you? If you were so stressed out that you couldn't think right, you would harm yourself to remind yourself there is worse out there...right? I know you Katie, and I know that's exactly what you would do. Oh, Katie you look so peaceful there...so serene, and yet I know what's in your mind, horror images and so much more. I know what lies behind her happy looking face, and I know what you go through as you lie in that stale bed. I can't help but think, I put you there. I need you awake, to tell me that isn't my fault. To be here for me as I am here for you. Please, Katie...wake up...for me?"
