The lock to my door clicked open and I stepped inside. My two kittens I just got named Stripes and Patch came running towards me. "Hey you two little trouble makers." I bent down to pet them and they began to purr. "Where are the others?" I asked and scooped them into my arms.
After locating Cinnamon, Ellie, Dusty, and Taquito I hopped into the shower. Even putting on some music before getting in so I could sing. After washing up I turned to water off and stepped out, gabbing my towel.
I turned on my computer and went over to grab some clothes. I put on a pair of plaid pajama pants and a grey T-shirt and sat in my chair. I clicked onto skype and saw that there was already a call going so I joined. "Only five more days! What are you guys planning on getting him?" Luke asked not realizing I was in the call. "Let's get him a dildo!" Jon cheered. "I don't think Bryce wants that for his birthday." Ohm chuckled. "Yeah I'll have to pass." I say speaking up for the first time.
"Bryce!" Jonathan cheered. I chuckled and smiled at the camera even though only Luke had his face cam on. "Yup. Morning guys." "Took you long enough slow ass. Now we can get to playing." Luke teased. I laughed and opened the game up on my other monitor.
The game had finished loading and I had just joined a group with the others when my phone began to ring. "Hang on I gotta take this guys." I said and noticed that the caller id was for the hospital. Maybe mom woke up!
I muted myself and answered the phone. "Bryce?" Pamela's voice answered. "Yeah what's up?" "Bryce its your mom. She...she didn't make it." Everything came crashing around down around me and her words played again and again in my ears. "What do you mean?!" "Bryce you need to get over here. She's gone." Without another word I hung up.
I un muted Skype and said "hey guys sorry but something came up." Then hung up without waiting for a reply. I barely grabbed shoes before I was out the door and in my car.
It was hard to get to the hospital without speeding or running a red light but I did and then I was running into the building. Not stopping to talk to the receptionist, just dashing towards the stairs because I didn't want to have to wait for the elevator.
I reached the floor and ran down the corridor till the room came into my sight. I could see Pam standing outside the door with her head in her hands as she paced. She looked up when she head my foot steps echo along the aluminum.
"Bryce before you go in. The doctors will be here in a bit to remove her." She continued to say more but I wasn't paying attention. I pushed past her into the room. She was on the bed, still hooked up to everything minus the heart monitor. Her long blond hair was spread all over the pillow and her face truly showed he age.
Unable to stand anymore I plopped down in the uncomfortable maroon chair I had spent many nights in. "Bryce the doctors are on there way." Pam bent down in front of me but it was like I couldn't see her. "It was her time. She's better now and everything will be ok." Gently she brushed away the tears I hadn't even realized I'd shed.
How could she say it would be alright? Of course it won't be alright! I don't have mom, dad is off somewhere else with Maggie, the mortgage for the house is two moths over due and they where giving me till mom's health was fixed to pay it, I don't have the money to rent a apartment, and now I have the find the money for a funeral. Everything is not alright nor will it ever be!
I looked at her until the doctors covered her with a sheet and rolled her out and even then I stared at the place her bed had been. How could she leave me? No she didn't. This is all some sick joke. She'll be coming back and when she does I'll give her a piece of my mind. How dare she leave her favorite son?!
I realized I was crying again when Pamela pressed something into my hand. Looking down I discovered it was my phone. I don't remember bringing it but then again I barely remember the drive here. Carefully she lifted my hand that was holding the phone to my ear. She said something but I couldn't hear right. It was almost like I was in a tunnel and every sound was bouncing off the wall.
"Bryce?" I heard who i'm pretty sure was ohm. "Listen Bryce i'm coming down there and we can sort this out together. I'll tell the guys your really busy and i'm taking a short break. I'm booking my flight right now." Then I kinda just stopped listening. I knew he continued talking cause I could hear the buzzing in my ear but none of it registered.
Pam seemed to realize that I no longer heard what was said and pulled the phone away and began to talk to it. "Yeah, I'll make sure he gets home safe. Yeah I can do that. Alright." Then she hung up and passed me back my phone which I slid into my pocket without putting any thought into my movements.
She bent down in front of me and took my hands in hers. "Alright Bryce, we're gonna get you back home. Now I need you to give me directions." "But my car?" I asked not really caring about her response. "You can get it later. Now come on." She carefully tugged on my arms a bit until I was standing. Then she lead me out of the room and through the maze of a hospital. When we reached the reception desk she began to talk to the receptionist who I could faintly remember the name of. Dara I think or what's it Diana? Why does it even matter?
After there conversation was over Pam guided me out and to her car which in my haze I only noticed it was red. "Alright Bryce; now I need you to give me directions. I got the rest of the day off so I'll be staying with you for a bit." Pam explained as she buckled me in and started the car. I began to give her instructions but in the back of my mind I disliked the tone she used to talk to me.
She made me sound like a child. Incapable of understanding unless it was said slowly to them and no big words where used. I eternally scoffed at that. Why is she worried about me anyways? I'm perfectly fine.
We reached my house and I noticed that it was getting late. Maybe like five in the afternoon? I didn't have time to look at the sky for long though because Pam was dragging me inside after getting my keys from me.
She lead me through my house. Opening and closing a bunch of doors but stopping when she found the door for my bedroom. "Ok Bryce. It's time for you to get some sleep. You've been through a lot and you need to get some rest." I wanted to disagree and tell her I was fine and yet as soon as the covers where around me I fell into a deep sleep.
