Jakes POV

We didn't even go back to boys and my flat. We went right to the hospital. We did look odd coming in with our bags but I couldn't concentrate on anything but Casey. I ran to the front desk when we got in the door.

"Casey Johnson?" I ask and the women looks down at her computer and scowls.

"Family?" I sigh and grip the counter. I look at her with a death glare.

"He's my boyfriend. Now could tell me where he is?" I ask in a rush and she just looks at me. I sigh and go to say something.

"Jake!" I look up to see Tom running towards me. I leave the women and go to him. He raps his arms around me and I barry my face in his neck. He rubs my back and I pull away.

"Tom what's-"

"Just come with me. He's been antsy waisting for you. We didn't tell him but he thinks you never left." What was wrong with him? And why didn't he tell me? I nod and follow him to the elevator. I keep my head down and tighten my hands. Casey be okay.

We walked down the hall with Tom and I felt as if I couldn't breath. What if he wasn't ok? What if he decided he didn't want to be with me? What if this was my fault?

"Just go in. He keeps saying your name in his sleep." I take a deep breath at his words. I place my hand on the handle and sigh. I close my eyes and see Casey smiling.

His eyes were closed and his face drained of all color. He almost looked like a vampire. But I knew that wasn't true. He had a machine attached to his arms and I noticed they were covered. I gasped slightly. I pulled his sleeve up and let out a sigh of relief. Nothing. Tom hadn't lied it was his head. Was this the thing that 'you can't tell Jake'?

"Casey if you can here me I'm fine. And your gunna be- I I'm here and now and I'm not leaving. I love you and I don't know why you didn't tell me about your head but- I'm sure you had your reasons." Now my voice cracked as I rubbed my thumb over the top of his hand. Maybe he would wake up and not remember who I was. Maybe he wouldn't remember anything. Maybe he wouldn't remember the X Factor.

I sighed when he didn't respond. I looked down and watched my feet. I wanted to cry but I knew I had to be strong. I wanted to know what happened and why he hasn't told me.

"J-Jake?" I snap my head up and see Casey's eyes barely open. I smile and grip his hand once more.

"Hey babe, how you feel?" I asks and he shrugs. I smile and kiss his hand once. He snatches his hand away and I blink. I move back a couple feet and feel tears in my eyes.

I then shove my chair out and walk towards the door. I stop as my hand touches the door handle. I look down and see a tear fall. Shit I need to get out of here. I glance over my shoulder at him once then speak softly.

"You know. If you didn't like me you could have just told me. Not made me feel like a fool and lied."

I then left the room. Pushing past Tom who tied to stop me. But I just kept going. I wipe my eyes and sigh. I knew he didn't love me. He'll maybe he didn't want to even be friends with me and forces himself too so he could win the X Factor. I saw my mom andSydney and the moment my mom saw me she stood. I grabbed onto her and began sobbing like a child all over. I felt Sydney's arms around me too.

"C-can we go?" I ask him and she nods. She pulls me into her and we walk out. I was glad none of the boys but Tom were here but that also means that they're home. Right where I'm going.

I pulled my legs to my chest as we drove and kept my gaze out the window. I sniffled and pulled my hood up on my sweatshirt. I see my mom look over at me and sigh.

We then pulled into the parking lot and I sighed. I got out and grabbed my stuff. Then grabbed my sisters bag and my mom and her grabbed her stuff. I carried them and still opened the door.

"Tom?" I heard and looked down. I shook my head but didn't vocalize it.

"Nope. Jake." I say and I hear feet come running. First I see Ellie and I drop the bags. She's crying and I hear her whisper in my ear.

"Barclay asked me out." I smile and tell her I'm glad. I already knew they'd be cute. She smiles and soon leaves my arms for his. I smile at him as he raps his arm around her waist.

"Hey guys." My voice is small and they all look down. I wonder what's going on.

"Did you see Casey?" James speaks with a smirk and I almost cry again.

"Yeah. And I'm not going again."
