We will meet again | Maxley

Chapter 24

– Bradley –

Once that Max was transferred to a room, PJ and Mocha went downstairs to the cafe to grab coffee for Bobby, and I

I was sitting close to Max, holding his hand as I watched him breathe in and out

"He's fine.. You can go back to campus," I heard Bobby say, and I reverted my attention to him

"I'll leave until he wakes up," I stated, looking back at Max

He sighed and folded his arms across his chest, "I don't think he's going to wake up soon."

I glanced at him and stood up from my chair, "Why do you want me to leave so badly?" I questioned

Bobby shrugged his shoulders, "You ask me.. You seem like you have something to do with Max being beaten up."

I frowned at him,"Are you saying that it's my fault?"

"What I am trying to say is that Max should've not met up with you after Tank warned him the first time. He also told you about what Tank told him, so you should've stayed away from him."

"Do you think that will stop him from meeting me? It's not entirely my fault.. Max is stubborn like you said last time. You could've also done something," I spit out

"You're blaming me? He's your boyfriend, isn't he? Why didn't you protect him?" Bobby said with a frown

I pursed my lips, "I did! At least.. I thought I did..." I looked away from him and sat back down

The room fell silent, but there were some nosies outside of the room, and the heart monitor beeping once and a while

"What do you mean by that?" Bobby questioned

I sighed slightly, "I made a deal with Tank.. To prevent him from doing any harm on Max. He even promised me that he won't do anything to him. Turns out, he lied.." I said before looking down at the floor, my leg pouncing

"You what? Made a deal with Tank? What–" he cleared his throat before saying, "You didn't tell Max.. Didn't you?"

I shook my head, "No.. I didn't"

"Are you fucking stupid?! You're supposed to let him know! And what kind of deal did you even make with Tank?" Bobby shouted

I didn't answer..

I feel too ashamed to say it

We heard a knock on the door, and PJ walked inside with the coffees, and Mocha, with a few pastries

"Is he not awake yet?" PJ asked, and Bobby shook his head

"No.. Not yet. Probably, he'll wake up later– I hope," Bobby said and thanked PJ for the coffee

"Here," PJ said, handing me a cup of coffee, and I took it from him

"Thank you," I mumbled, and I heard the three of them giggle, and I shot them a glare before taking a sip of the coffee

"So, who's going to tell Mr. Goofy on what happened to his son?" Mocha asked, drinking her coffee

"I forgot about that.. Well– definitely not me," PJ said

"C'mon PJ! We have to tell him. If Max doesn't wake up when he arrives, then he'll for sure ask us what happened," Bobby stated

PJ grumbled, "Oh, alright.."

I watched them as they took a seat and chatter, and I mostly stayed quiet

I was too worried about the whole situation
