Chapter 13 ~ The Hospital
Delirious POV:
Cartoonz had been hit by a mini cooper.
Nicole hadn't broken her leg like I thought she did, but she was still somewhat hurt.
Vanoss had an anxiety attack.
And Macie was having a mental breakdown.
Nicole had a small brace on her leg.
Cartoonz, well, was in the hospital.
We decided to once again, extend our trip, to go visit Cartoonz until he healed.
We all headed to the Judith Hospital.
When we got there, we noticed it was a huge white building surrounded with flowers.
Nicole and Macie stayed near the back of our crowd.
At first, Evan was mad at Nicole.
But he originally calmed down and was grateful she wasn't hurt.
He had realized that Luke had risked his life in order to help Nicole.
He was extremely grateful.
We walked into the hospital and found out which room Cartoonz was in.
"Hello." Nicole said to the man at the desk.
The man looked her up and down.
"Hey, back off my sister." Evan said.
The man squinted at Evan.
I pulled Vanoss' shoulder.
"Evan. It's okay." I said.
Nicole became very nervous after the man told us what room Cartoonz was in.
I tried to calm her.
As we walked beside Evan, she held my hand.
"It will all be okay. He's fine. I'm sure." I told her.
We walked up to Cartoonz's room and opened hmthe door.
"Luke?" I asked.
He looked up at us.
"Hey, guys!" he smiled.
Nicole ran over. "Oh my god, are you okay?" she asked.
"Yeah, I'm just a little sore. I fractured my arm and broke a rib because if trying to block the car, but I'm okay." he said.
"What happened to the driver?" Marcel asked.
"Oh, his insurance paid for everything." Luke said.
"No, I mean, did he go to jail or the hospital or...?"
Cartoonz looked at him.
"Oh, he went to the ER and they checked him, and he's okay. As for the jail thing... "
Marcel yawned.
"I don't know." Cartoonz finished.
"When do you think you'll be getting released?" I asked Cartoonz, but I was looking at Evan.
"I'm pretty sure tomorrow." Cartoonz said.
"Do you want us to stay in a hotel?" Nicole asked Lui.
"Well, not all of us are going to sleep well in the RVs." Chrissy told Lui.
Scotty nodded.
"The thing is, what hotel? And what time is he going to be released, even if it is tomorrow?" Skylar asked.
"Who knows? He may be releasable a week from now. And we can't afford two or three hundred dollars to stay in a hotel for seven days." Brian said.
"Especially not us," Lonnah agreed.
"We had to take out a loan to go on this trip in the first place."
"Let's ask about when he gets released then." Evan said.
I squeezed his hand.
We walked to the nurse.
"Ma'am?" Evan asked.
She turned around.
She looked Evan up and down.
She then looked at me.
I threw her a dirty look.
She turned to the ground.
"Yes?" She asked.
What's with people in this hospital?
"Is there a way to find out when my friend is being released?" Vanoss asked.
"I could tell you," she said.
We told her about Cartoonz and she said he was going to be released tomorrow, like he said.
We walked back to Cartoonz's room.
I made sure to grab Evan's hand right in front of the nurse.
Because he was mine.
I let go when we were back in Luke's room.
"He is gonna be released tomorrow." I said.
"I'm going shopping so that I could stock up the RV's." Lui said.
He turned to Macie to ask if she wanted to come, but then remembered, and turned back around.
"I'll come." Daithi said.
"Let's go."
Macie started crying, and Nicole held her hand.
Tyler went to rub her back to try to help, but Nicole pushed him away.
"What the hell is your problem?" Wildcat asked.
MiniLadd POV:
Tyler started backing up.
"Just don't." Nicole said to him.
"No, I want to know what the fuck your problem is!" Tyler said.
"I don't have a damn problem!!" Nicole yelled.
"Yeah, you do, or you wouldn't have pushed me away or been the bitch you have been to me." Tyler said.
Evan started to get up, but Delirious pulled him down.
"Hey! You're the bitch here!" Cartoonz sat up and yelled.
"Bullshit!" I said.
"Tyler and I haven't said anything since we've been here."
Everyone started arguing.
"I'm not talking about here!!!!" Nicole yelled.
"What?" Tyler asked.
Everyone grew quiet.
"You've only seen Tyler here." Brian said.
"No, just..." Nicole said.
Macie looked at Nicole.
"Mini, take care of Macie." She said to me.
"Okay. Will do." I sat beside Macie and Nicole pulled Tyler out of the room.
Evan leaned against the door.
"Evan?" Jonathan asked.
"Just watching our for my little sister." He pressed his ear against the door.
Nicole POV:
"Tyler. I have to tell you something."
I said, after closing the door.
"Fucking say it." he said.
"What do you think I'm going to tell you?" I asked.
"That I'm a piece of shit and we were never friends and you don't want to talk to me again." he said.
"No, Tyler... " I said.
"Then what?" he asked.
"I'm in love with you." I said.
He paused. "What?"
"You heard me. I'm in love with you, Tyler." I said, itching my leg.
"You love Cartoonz." He said.
"But now how I love you." I said.
He looked down.
"That's not the reason have being how you have been though."
"Tyler, you cause me a lot of pain. And you never did care about it." I said.
"I didn't cause you any pain." He said.
"Oh, really? How about when everyday you used to come over to me and Evan's house when our parents were still alive and bring video games?" I said.
"We were kids!" he said.
"No, the thing is, I was in love with you. And you didn't love me back." I said.
"And when you left, you took a lot of me with you. Then when Evan visited Indiana. And you ran into me.
You wanted Evan, not me.
I was replaced by my own brother.
You stopped talking to me at all. You dated my best friend.
Instead of me. Then you started YouTube with Evan. You never even asked how I was doing. I was going through depression. And my brother wasn't there for me, either, because he was too busy spending time with you. You made me hurt inside. I just missed playing video games while sitting on the couch beside you and Evan. I miss my parents. Evan does, too. But you don't seem to care." I said, crying silently.
"You always get everything you want."
He looked hurt.
Good. I hope he was.
I leaned against the wall and slid on the floor.
I put my head in my lap.
"Niki..." He said.
He sat down beside me.
"I'm so sorry." He grabbed my hand.
I couldn't hold it.
"Why are you pushing me away?" Tyler asked, pulling me closer to him.
"Because I don't want to fall in love with you over and over again and you'll never love me back." I said.
He sighed.
He walked down the hall.
Not back to Luke's room.
But out of the hospital.
