Poisoned Blood

<6>

I'm screaming as he injects the liquid. It throbs. The spot starts to swell and throb.
"It hurts, it hurts!!!" I whimper. I watch as my arm starts to swell and throb.
"Claire! She's Having an allergic reaction to it!! Get me some medicine!" Doctor Jonson yells. I tense up/ Claire runs into the hallway to look for a medicine. I panic and start moving and screaming, its painful, soon, my throat starts to swell up and close.
"I c-can't breathe!!!" I choke out.
"Hold on" he says. He grabs my throat tries to open my airways, pulling my head back, trying to make it easier for me to breathe. Claire runs in with some medicine.
"Put it in a syringe!" The doctor instructs. Claire does so and puts it in my arm. A few seconds later my throat relieves and I can breathe again, and the swelling in my arm goes down.
"That's enough for tonight. Keep a close eye on her" Said doctor Jonson and he leaves. Claire strokes my hair, trying to settle me down and calm me.
"It's all over now baby" She whispers and sits down in the chair next to my bed, Shes holding my hand again. Still stroking my hair. I grab the stuffed dog and horse and hug them. I'm still crying, light tears dripping down my cheeks.
"It's okay, he won't hurt you anymore," She says, and kisses my cheek.
"I want my daddy" I whisper. My throat was still sore.
"I'm afraid he can't see you tonight" She said softly. "You should get rest, darling" She says.
"But...." I whisper.
"No, be quiet now, you need to rest" she said quietly. I close my eyes, hugging my horse and dog stuffed animals. She pulls the covers over me. I was about to fall asleep but then my arm started to hurt. Claire was about to leave the room, but I stop her.
"Claire?" I whisper. She stops and walks back over to me.
"Yes?" She said.
"My arm hurts" I whisper, looking at her. She thinks for a second.
"I know. All I can do is give you a Tylenol, it will only help a little bit." She said.
"I don't need it I guess. I'll try to ignore it" I said. She waits till I fall asleep before she leaves.
I wake up. I look at my cell phone, its 8am. I'm starving. They didn't give me dinner yesterday. I pick up the Caller and push the button. A few minutes later Nurse Claire comes in.
"Good morning, morning glory" She said smiling. "How was your sleep?" She asked.
"Not very good. I kept waking up from the pain in my arm" I say.
"Oh, I'm sorry" She said, sitting down in the chair.
"When's breakfast? I'm starving" I ask. She smirks.
"I'll go get it" She said. I lay there for a while and just stare at the ceiling. Later she comes with a plate of pancakes and toast and a glass of orange juice. She gives it to me.
"Am I too annoying or needy?" I ask.
"What? No. I want to do what ever I can for you. I feel so bad that this happened to you. I will do whatever you want" She said.
"Thank you for being so generous to me" I say, taking a bite of my breakfast.
"You're welcome sweetie" she said. I continue eating.
I finished my meal.
"Claire? I want a shower" I ask "I've been here for days. I'd like a shower or bath please" I say.
"Uh, okay" She said.
" I have to give you a needle so I can take off the i.v. You should be fine. I'll wait outside the door. Try not to take longer then 10 minutes" She said. "The needle only stops the poison for a little while"
"Please don't make the needle hurt too much.." I say. She nods. They've been giving me so many needle that they don't scare me as much anymore.
The shower was great. Refreshing. It took some of the stress away. After I was done I got to wear my own clothes instead of a dumb hospital gown. I come out. Claire was waiting like she said she was going to. She put the i.v back in my arm, it hurt, but not as much this time.
I'm going a little insane, I've been here for four or five days now, not getting to see dad, and getting hurt by doctor Jonson. I just want to go home. I want to see dad. I want to see princess. I don't want to be here.
"Claire, I want to see my father" I say. She leaves my room and goes into the hallway. Locks the door. I run up to the door and try  to open it.
"I want to go home!" I yell, pounding my fists against the door once.
Claire comes and opens the door into me.
"You know you can't right now" she says sternly.
"I want to go home" I say crying. I break down and fall to my knees.
"I want to go home" I bury my face in my knees.
"I want... to...." I try to say with tears soaking my face. Claire kneels down next to me and wraps her arms around me. I sat there crying with her holding me for twenty minutes.
"I would love to let you go home. But if something happens, its not safe" She said finally.
"I want to see dad" I say.
"Can't" she responded.
I finally stand up. My knees damp with tears, my eyes red.  Doctor Jonson comes in. He sees that I've been crying.
"What is it?" He asked
"Don't worry... Shes just, homesick." She said to doctor Jonson. I walk back to my bed and sit down. Hanging my head low, my hair was dropped and covered my face. They talked a bit, I couldn't hear them. I hold my horse tight. The doctor comes over to me. I look up at him.
"Why can't I go home, or at least see my dad?" I ask him.
"Your not well, you can't go home. Your dad wouldn't want to see you like this" He said.
"WHY?!" I yell. He punched my arm.
"Ow!" I say "Why did you do that?" I said. I looked at my arm, it bruised black as big as his fist. I gasp. I look up at him with wild fear in my eyes.
"Did I punch you that hard? I'm sorry, I just wanted you to stop yelling..."
"You didn't even.... hit hard...." I said, my sentence trailed off.
"Hmmm" He kneels down and looks at the bruise.
"This doesn't look good..." He said, tapping the bruise with his finger, I whine, it hurt. I'm scared. I start shaking.
"I gotta go.." Said Doctor Jonson. He leaves the room.
"I'll be back" Nurse Claire said.
I just sit there, staring down at the bruise.
What......what's happening to me.
