In Your Time

Chapter 33

Ten minutes later, Elizabeth was coming into the principal's office looking worried. She came straight to me and looked me over simile to how Braden did. She lifted my shirt and checked my back and stomach quickly.

"What happened? Did you crack a rib again? Are you hurt? Where does it hurt? I'll call George. No, he's at work. I'll take you to the hospital," she fussed over me.

"Mom, I'm fine. I was just having a hard time breathing for a moment," I explained quickly.

"She really did crack a rib?" Mrs. Meyers asked Elizabeth. Elizabeth's attention turned to our principal as her face hardened slightly.

"Of course she did! You think my kids would make up something that serious? She was hospitalized because of it," Elizabeth explained.

"I'm sorry for doubting them, but in my defense, I found them in a popular make out corner with Phoenix's shirt up," Mrs. Meyers defended herself.

"Because that's where her ribs are located. I understand you run a school full of horny teenagers, but Phoenix lives with us. If they wanted to do something that promiscuous, they could do it at home. It's not like they have to hide. They actually have my full support. I hope they're secretly making out in their room," Elizabeth ranted.

"Mom!" Braden protested. Elizabeth rolled her eyes before turning to Braden.

"I know you do. I've just been pretending like I didn't know because I knew you would get defensive," Elizabeth explained quickly. I did giggle at that.

"Well.. if Phoenix really isn't feeling well. You can take her home for today," Mrs. Meyers said flustered. We walked out of the school in silence. When we got to the parking lot, Braden finally broke the silence.
