"How are you feeling?"
"I'm fine"
"Do you want me to bring you anything?"
"No"
"Hailee says she misses you"
"Mhhm"
"Brother talk to me"
"There's nothing to talk about"
"Colton we need to talk"
"There's nothing to talk about"
"Hearing you admit that was hard to hear"
"It was the first time admitting it out loud and that just made the stinging truth of reality set in"
"We have the best doctors for you Colton and maybe--"
"No maybe's brother. This is it. I'm going to die and no IV fluids is going to stop it."

"Its been four days"
"He still hasn't answered your calls?"
"No, I'm so damn worried. Why won't he just call me?"
"I don't know babe"
"Maybe its because of me. Maybe he realized that I'm not worth the stress and just stopped calling"
"You don't know that"
"It could be true though. No wonder Jamie hated me"
"Okay now that is just crossing the line! Its not your fault that Jamie is such a scumbag."
"I called him"
"You what?"
"I called him."
"I know what you said. Why the hell would you do that?"
"I don't know. I kinda regret it"
"You should. That was stupid of you"
"More stupid than talking to him?!"
"..."
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to snap at you"
"Why did you call Jamie Asa?"
"I don't know. It was an unconcious decision. I'm worried about Colton"
"Did he say anything to you?"
"No. Just that he was surprised that I called him"
"You do know that he isn't gonna let this phonecall go right?"
"I know! What was I thinking?!"
"Hey, don't worry about it Asa, we'll figure it out together, like we always did."
"I don't deserve you Reeds"
"Hell yeah you don't!"
[A beat of silence before the two girls burst out laughing]
"Thank you Reeds"
"No need bestie. Just stop worrying about chicken guy so much okay?"
"I can't help it Carly"
"Just try"
"Okay"
"I have to leave, Parker is gonna start whining again and you know how he is"
"Yeah. Say hi to the little rascal for me"
"Will do. See you soon Asa"
"Later Reeds"
