Chapter Summaries & Analyses
In the hospital after the accident, Halley pieces together the preceding events, remembering how cold she felt on the road while waiting for the ambulance. Macon was kneeling over her, holding her hands and telling her, finally, that he loves her. Halley and Macon were separated when the ambulance came to take Halley to the hospital, and the paramedic told Halley that Macon needed to stay at the scene of the accident.
At the hospital, Halley gives Scarlett’s number to the attendants, and a doctor inspects her, telling her that she has a sprained wrist, lacerations on her back, a cut near her eye, and bruised ribs. The doctor tells Halley that her sister is outside, and Scarlett comes in. Scarlett asks where Macon is, and when Halley assumes that he is waiting for her in the waiting room, Scarlett says that she did not see him. Halley tells Scarlett that she did not have sex with Macon, and Scarlett is relieved, although she was more worried about Halley’s well-being than the state of her virginity.
As Halley begins to fall asleep, she tells Scarlett that her parents are going to be furious with her and will prevent her from ever seeing Macon again.
