Chapter 23: 23 Bad Boy Kisses

Jared’s head snapped up as Matt and Hailey came out of Austin’s room. They were quiet and Hailey looked upset. When they reached us, they both offered small smiles to us. “Thanks for letting us see him.” Hailey whispered squeezing Jared’s shoulder.

Giving her a tiny small he stood up from his seat and I followed suit. “Thank you for coming. I’ll see you guys tomorrow, okay?”

Matt grabbed his shoulder and shook him a tiny bit. “Yeah, man. Call if you need anything.” He sent me a fleeting look and grabbed Hailey’s hand.

“Bye.” She said giving me a quick hug.

Then they were off which I think was a good thing. It was almost past mid-night and the rest of Jared’s family had already gone home. It was a struggle to get Mrs. McKingsley to leave Austin but everyone reassured her that he will be awake tomorrow and she can see him then.

I linked my fingers through Jared’s. “Ready?” I looked up at him with searching eyes. He was hesitant to go in the room. I think that’s why we were the last to go. The most affected by this whole ordeal had to be Jared. He tried so much to help Austin and then here he was, going to visit his brother who had just been stabbed for being gay.

The disgust that rolled over me at those words was a mountain load. It sickened me to the core that people are so cruel.

I snapped out of my thoughts when I felt a tug on my hand. “Coming?” Jared’s grey eyes were bland as he spoke.

I nodded and followed him into the room letting the door swing closed behind us.

The first thing my eyes landed on was the tube placed in Austin’s mouth. I put a hand to my mouth to stop from gasping. His face was pale, his eyes closed but he looked so peaceful in that state. Tucked tightly, into the blankets, I couldn’t even see his stomach. I was grateful for that because I don’t know how much I could digest looking at him.

His arms were over the blankets and lying on his sides. A clip was placed on one of his fingers and I figured that was for the nurses to keep track on him or something.

Jared dropped my hand and moved closer to his brother. Two seats were seated around the bed but I stayed back. Jared needed his own time with Austin. I watched as he took a seat and grabbed hold of Austin’s hand.

He was silent for a second before his shoulders shook a little. “I guess you finally did it?” His words were chocked and then I knew he was crying. I felt like I was intruding on him. Like I shouldn’t be there, it felt so private.
