Imagination (Christian Collins fanfiction)

Chapter 37

Once we landed I got off the plane as fast as I could. I ran out in to the airport and immediately spotted my brother, his eyes filled with relief and I'm sure mine did too.

Never did I ever think I would be so happy to see my brother. I dragged my stuff behind me before giving up and dropping it and running to him. He opened his arms and I hugged him tight, I might have missed him a little bit.

We pulled away and his eyes started watering, "What happened?"

"She got in a car accident and the other car hit the drivers side.." He started getting choked up and I pulled him back in to a hug.

"Is she okay?"

He nodded but kept sobbing, I've never seen him cry like this, he stood up straight and composed himself, "Let's go." He said before taking my hand and going outside to his car.

He put my stuff in the back and I sat in the front seat, he got in and started driving to the hospital.

We got to the hospital and he took me straight to mom's room but stopped outside the door and turned to me, "She looks bad, but please don't react to that?"

I nodded, I'm scared now. I grabbed Tom's hand and he took us in, "Mom, look who's here!" He said excitedly, mom turned her head and I almost cried, she's still my beautiful mother, just wish scrapes, bruises, and a huge gash in her cheek.

I smiled and covered my mouth before letting go of Tom's hand and walking to her bed, "Hi beautiful... How was tour?" She asked, she seems fine.

"Fun! Umm..."

"What?" She smiled.

"Chris and I are kind of dating now..." I smiled and covered my face while looking down.

"You're dating Chris? As in boyfriend and girlfriend?"

"Yeah..."

She smiled, "That's amazing, baby girl! I know he'll treat you right, I trust him. Is he here?"

I looked down and messed with my sleeves, "Umm, no. The tour manager wouldn't let him come even though he knows how badly I need him."

"Especially now, oh honey I'm so sorry."

"It's okay.." I said getting choked up.

"Visiting hours are over, y'all have to leave." Some nurse said rudely.

"Okay, I'll let you guys go, I love you." My mom said taking my hand and kissing it before letting go. Tom took my hand and we walked out of the room and out of the hospital.

My phone started ringing and I pulled it out of my pocket, CHRIS!

"Hello?"

"You made it home? How's your mom?"

"Umm, she's scraped up a little-"

"FaceTime me."

I pulled the phone from my ear and hit the button so that it changes to FaceTime, Christian's face came on the screen and I started crying.

"I miss you. Chris she looks bad."

"It's okay, she'll be okay, Princess. Just breathe."

"I can't."

"You're fine, I'll talk to Jeff as soon as possible to see if I can come home, okay?"

I nodded and wiped under my eyes, "I love you Princess, but I have to go. I'll let you know what Jeff says tomorrow."

"Okay, I love you too."

He gave me a sad smile before hanging up, "Princess?" Tom asked with a grossed out look.

"He's always called me that."

"Okay... I know you also say 'love you' but that sounded more serious."

"Yeah, we're dating."

"Since when?"

"Two weeks ago.."

"I like him." He smiled, if my brother doesn't approve it won't happen. We drove home and as soon as we got there I texted my girl best friend.

We've only been friends for 3 years but still, I only trust her and Chris.

To: Lex 🌸
Hey I'm home from tour and I kinda need someone

From: Lex 🌸
On my way

I then got a ton of texts from Chris,

"I miss you"
"If Jeff doesn't let me I'm sneaking out"
"I can't let you do this alone"
"I can't believe how much I miss you already"

I smiled and answered him back,

To: Christian 🙈💘
"You don't have to sneak, I'll try and come back, I love you so much"

From: Christian 🙈💘
"I love you I love you I love you"

I locked my phone and then the doorbell rang. I ran downstairs to opened the door and jumped on Lexi.

"Hey bae!" She said and I jumped off her and pulled her inside, "I'm so glad to see you!"

"Me too! Now about Chris, y'all are dating now?!"

"Yeah!" I squealed.

"Wait, I thought tour was for like another month?"

"I had to come home, my mom's in the hospital."

"Oh honey, I'm sorry," She said and pulled me in for a hug, "Where's Christian?"

"Still on tour, they wouldn't let him come home with me." I said playing with my sleeves, I cried so much today that my sleeves are soaked.

"But he's the only thing that keeps you calm?"

I nodded, pretty much everyone knows that by now. He's always been the only thing.

Lex and I sat and talked for a while before she had to go home. It's almost 1 a.m and it's about the same time where Chris is. I miss him already...

Speaking of Chris, my phone rang and guess who it was?

I picked up, "Why aren't you sleeping?"

"Why aren't... You sleeping?"

"Lex just left and I'm missing you."

"I miss you more, I'm so sorry I couldn't come with you."

"Chris it's okay, I'm okay right now, you sound tired though.."

"I am, I just can't sleep without you."

"Aww Chris stop, I already miss you enough, now go to bed."

"I love you."

"I love you too.."

I hung up the phone and plugged it in the charger before taking a quick shower and slipping on one of Christian's hoodies. I got in bed smelling like Chris and I don't even care.
