Chapter 10


Georgie had been home for 3 days now and it was tougher than she could have ever expected. Everything that she used to be able to do was now almost impossible with out someone else helping her. She now realized how many things she had taken for granted like just being able to walk. It frustrated her so much that she was not able to be independent anymore and most of the time she cried herself to sleep. She also felt bad about the way that she had treated her family latey. They would try to help her do something and she would scream at them and say that she could do it herself. It was unfair to them to be so mean but it was so hard to control the anger that was built up inside of her that it was almost impossible to be thankful and nice. Dillon had came and visited her all the time and she tried her hardest to be kind and understanding when he tried to help because he already felt guilty and she didn't want to hurt him.

As for her mother Georgie could not be more angry at her. Felicia had not called her once and she hadn't even come back home when she needed her the most. She knew that Mariah needed Felicia but they could hire a nurse to take care of her while Felicia cam home and took care of Georgie. It was so unfair that her and Maxie had basically had to grow up without a mother especially when they all needed her so much. As far as Georgie was concerned she wasn't even a mother anymore.

Suddenly the phone rang and Georgie reached across the couch and picked it up.

" Hello."

" Hey baby." Felicia's voice echoed through the reciever.

" Hi." Georgie said trying to hide her anger.

" So how are you doing sweetheart?"

" How do you think I'm doing I'm in a wheelchair and practically confined to the couch and you haven't even came to see or help me." Georgie said angerly.

" Well honey your grandma is not doing to well right now and she needs me very badly right now. Once she gets better I will be back there as soon as possible." Felicia replied.

" Well you know I think I kind of need you right now too and you think you would have been back to New York the second you heard that I had been in a car accident and almost died. But I guess I dont matter that much now do I?" Georgie yelled into the phone.

" Oh honey yes you do. you mean the world to me so don't act like I don't care. I was going to come down there as fast as I could when I heard you were in a coma but then Mac called and told me you were awake and you would survive I thought maybe I could wait a little while because your grandma was really really sick."

" Oh so I have to be in a coma for you to actually see me? Even though I'm in a wheelchair now and am still in a hell of a lot of pain from the car accident. Well you know what Felicia? I dont give a damn because I have Mac, Maxie, and Dillon and I dont need you at all. You don't even need to bother coming down at all because as far as I'm concerned your not my mother anymore!" Georgie screamed and then slammed down the telephone.

She put her head in her hands and sobbed for hours until she fell asleep in front of the Tv.

Chapter 11

Her head rested against the seat and she listened to the radio playing loudly out of the speakers. She watched as the cars drove past in front of them and as the red light turned green and Dillon drove across the intersection. They were almost all the way to the other side when she lifted her head and turned to look at Dillon but instead of seeing him she stared past him at the car quickly coming towards them. She saw a flash of blonde hair in the other car before it slammed into the side.

" Whoa!" Georgie screamed as her eyes bolted open. She could feel the cold sweat covering her body and she wiped it off of her forehead with the back of her hand.

She had never remembered seeing the blonde hair in the other car when they got into the accident. Mac hadnt told her anything about the other person in the accident and if they were okay or not. She hadnt been able to get out of the house to buy a newspaper to see if there was anything about the accident in there. The curiousity was killing her and she knew there had to be someway to find out.

Suddenly the doorbell rang and she could see Dillons spiky hair through the window.

" Come in Dillon." She yelled.

The door slowly opened and he hobbled in on crutches.

" Look at us Dillon, I bet if we were to go out in public all eyes would be on us. Two crippleds trying to get around." She said smiling.

He laughed.

" I would have to agree with you there, everyone would be feeling sorry for us and we would just be laughing at ourselves." He said sitting down beside her.

" Do you know anything about the accident? Because mac isnt telling me anything and I have no sources to find out the truth from except for you."

" I have no clue. I got a newspaper and all it said was that there was a drunk driving accident and that two local teenagers were serverly injured. It didnt say anything about who hit us or anything like that. But my mom has been going ballistic down at the police station but I dont think they have told her anything. They must be trying to keep it on lock down or something but we have a right to know."

" I know I am so mad at Mac right now I refuse to even talk to him until he tells me something. He keeps saying that I am upset and once I calm down and my stress level has gone down he will start explaining things to me." She said angrily.

Dillon rolled his eyes.

" I bet you he is the one who isnt letting any names come out in the newspaper. If you ask me its a load of crap."

" Have you had any dreams Dillon, about the accident?" She asked quietly.

" Yeah a few. why?" He asked.

" Because I had this dream before you came in and I saw some bl-" She started before the doorbell rang.

" Hold that thought- I'll get the door." Dillon said grabbing his crutches and standing up.

When he got to the door he gave her a confused look. She watched as he opened the door and Jason and Courtney walked through the door.

" Hi Jason. Hi courtney. what are you doing here?" Georgie asked confused.

" We need to talk to you both about the accident." jason said and suddenly the realization hit her.

" Oh my God it was you!" Georgie screamed.

" What was courtney?" Dillon asked confused.

" Your the one that did this to me and Dillon! I should have known it was you. I had dreams and I saw a woman with blonde hair driving the car that hit us. You hit Elizabeth too and made her go blind for a while! Didnt you learn anything?!" Georgie screamed at Courtney.

Courtneys eyes filled with tears and she started to say something but Jason quickly cut her off.

" Look Georgie, Dillon this was an accident. Accidents happen and we would like to help you both."

" What does that mean?" Dillon asked, his voice rising in anger.

" It means we would like to pay for your medical bills and get you guys the best medical treatment possible. How ever much money you two need we will pay for it. We think it would be better to settle out of court so we can all go on with our lives as usual." Jason said calmly.

Dillon started laughing.

" Go on with our normal lives huh? Thats really funny because I dont see how me and Georgie can do that. Sure you and Courtney can because as far as I can see neither of you is hurt. But look at me and Georgie she is in a wheelchair and Im on crutches. I dont think we can go back to living our lives as normal."

" Guys I am so sorry and I can never tell you that enough. I know that I have caused you both so much pain and I hate myself for it but I cant take it back so I would like to help you. So please let us do this for you." Courtney pleaded with tears running down her face.

" Is this the same thing that you tried to do with Elizabeth? If you were really sorry than you would have came to us when we were first in the hospital you wouldnt have waited so long. You think you would have learned the first time. And please dont pretend like it was an accident you should have known before you started drinking that something was gonna happen. I always liked you Courtney because I thought you were different from everybody else but I guess I was wrong huh?" Georgie said angrily.

Courtney shook her head sadly and wiped the tears from her eyes.

" Im sorry that I've hurt you two and I have learned my lesson. I have joined AA and am trying to get better. I wish it was me that would have gotten hurt and I know that I have ruined your life and I just want to help you." She said softly.

" Well you know what Courtney you can help me by paying for your mistake and I'm not going to keep letting you get away with all these so called accidents you keep causing. You need help and you really need to learn your lesson so please just leave." Georgie said calmly.

Courtney nodded and took Jasons hand and they walked out the door.

Dillon and Georgie sat in silence for a few minutes letting everything that just happened sink into their minds. Suddenly the doorbell rang again and Dillon got up slowly and walked to the door.

Georgie watched as he opened the door and she heard a voice thank him before stepping in. When the woman walked in the door she felt the fury rise when she saw her mother standing before her.

" What are you doing here?" Georgie said feeling the anger steadily growing.

" I came back to see you and help everyone. I've decided to stay for good this time and I won't leave you again I promise." felicia said sounding like a little girl, like a little girl with a broken heart.

Georgie felt her heart soften just a little bit but still was furious with Felicia.

" Dillon could you excuse us for a while I need to speak to my mother." Georgie said calmly.

" Okay I will talk to you later. Love you." He said opening the door.

" I love you too." She said as he left.

" Is that your boyfriend?" Felicia asked in a small voice.

" Yeah you would know that if you had been here for at least half of my life." Georgie said her voice full of resentment.

" I know I havent been here and I'm sorry but I had to help your great grandmother. She would be dead if I hadnt gone and helped her."

" I realize that but you could have stayed with her for a few months and hired a private nurse. It is possible you know."

Felicia nodded and stared down at the floor silent for a few moments. Georgie stared at her mother and wondered how they had gotten to be this way. They used to be so close and then one day Felicia had just up and left saying she would be back in a few months. but those few months just kept growing longer and longer and as time passed on Georgie started to resent and even kind of hate her mother. Now she wanted back into her life like nothing had ever happened, like she had never went away and she couldnt Felicia back into her heart that easy.

" Georgie I know your furious because I missed out on so much but I want to come back into your life. I want to be back to where we used to be. I'm not going to try and control you and act like I'm your mother and whatever I say goes because I dont have that right anymore." Felicia said before Georgie interupted.

" Your damn right. You know mom when you left I was miserable. I was sad and lonely but I still loved you because you were my mother and I knew you had to leave for a little while. Even when Maxie said how much she hated you I always stood up for you. But as I got older I started to realize that you could come back you just didnt want to and thats when I started to hate you." Georgie started her voice rising loudly in anger.

Felicia sat down in front of her and grabbed her wrists.

" Please dont hate me Georgie. I love you and Im sorry!" Felicia yelled.

Georgie shook her head wildly not wanting to hear another word of what her mother had to say.

" Stop it Georgie stop!" Felicia screamed trying to pull her close.

" No mom I hate you! I hate you!" Georgie said now with tears falling down her eyes. Her fhands clenched into fists and she pressed them against her mothers shoulders trying to fight back before breaking down into sobs in her mothers arms.
