"Ummmmm…………………………..My name is Zoey. I'm one of your son's friends. There was an accident involving a bear when we were hanging out. We're at the hospital now……………………………………………..No, no. He's going to be fine. The injury wasn't as bad as it looked. She should be cleared today…………………………………………yes. I understand. Okay." She hung up. "His parents said that this happens sometimes, and that they would be over as soon as they could. They also want to thank us for staying with him."
"it happens sometimes?" Lenny uttered in disbelief.
Levi shrugged, his shock fading slightly. "It sounds like something Robin would do."
Robin woke up after about 20 minutes in the ER, asking where his animals were. He tried to get up, but the nurse made him stay. It reminded him of another incident in the hospital, funnily enough involving a bear trap. His brother Grayson had been there. He wondered whether he was coming now.
(Guys I have to go to bed soon, and then I won't be back till Sunday afternoon.)
(I'm really sorryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. But please keep Zoey active. Have her do stuff and respond.)
(Okay, she's kind of like Robin so I can try)
( awwww bye! )
Lenny walked in to see Robin in the bed. "Hi." she said quietly. Zoey walked in behind her, smiling warmly.
( awwww bye! )
Lenny walked in to see Robin in the bed. "Hi." she said quietly. Zoey walked in behind her, smiling warmly.
Levi ran into Robin's room. He saw that the other boy was fine and he sighed, leaning back against the wall. "I knew you'd live!"
Robin nodded. "I've… actually had worse injuries. The one that comes to mind, strangely enough, involves a bear trap." He revealed a dark scar on his ankle. One of the birds had managed to get inside. "Hello, Blackberry."
Levi made his way over to Robin's bed and crossing his arms. "Next time, do not talk to the bear and tell me that this is a regular thing! I thought you were dead!"
He looked down guiltily. "I-I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you guys…"
Levi nodded. "It's fine. Apology accepted." He reached out and patted Blackberry's head.
Lenny smiled. "No we're find. But you are crazy." she said, walking closer to the bed. Zoey walked up and smiled too.
Robin pushed himself into a sitting position, wincing a bit. The bandages were visible under his shirt. "They won't let me leave yet, they said my parents have to come first…"
Robin's parents burst into the room. "Why can't you just leave the bears alone?" said his mother, running over to him.
Levi stifled a laugh. He shrugged at Robin's parents and walked over to the wall so that they could talk to their son. "It's 'cause he's a Disney Princess."
"Because it could have hurt my friends and I just wanted him t-to leave peacefully!" Robin seemed to start angry and then sad or ashamed of himself, not wanting to meet his parents eyes. His father sighed, exasperated, putting a hand to his head. "You could have died, Gabriel. You can't talk to the animals." Robin nodded shakily. "B-but they listen to me. They like me. They worried when I was hurt." His eyes were brimming with tears, and Blackberry chirped as though agreeing.
"It's true, he can talk to animals." Levi spoke out, pointing to himself. "I saw it. That's why the bird is here." He pointed at Blackberry.
"Gabe…" His mother began. "So do we. You know we care, and we don't want you to keep getting hurt like this. It could end very badly. The bear trap incident, Grayson and Timothy were here, but we were out of town. There was nothing we could have done. You might have died then too." The tears fell from Robin's eyes and he covered his face with his hands. "I-I'm sorry… I d-didn't mean to put myself in s-such danger…"
"He saved us." Lenny blurted from the corner.
Robin looked up, a bit surprised, and Blackberry chirped loudly in agreement. "I-I think the animals understand us, i-if they choose to, b-but we just don't understand them." He looked up at his parents. "I may not be able to fully speak to the animals, but I understand them, a-and they understand me."
