Golden Love ~Tom Daley~

Support.

--First off. SO I was writing last night and my computer over heated because i wasn't paying attention and it shut off and I hadn't saved what I was writing. It was after my computer shut off and everything was earased that I realized how much I actually liked what I wrote. At that point I was like FUUUUDGE MY LIFE. So, I apologize if this chapter totally sucks, it's only because I hate rewriting things I've already written.--

~~TOMS POV~~

Yesterday morning Joules had been flown up here to Cleveland. Michael and I drove up here from Columbus in Pauls car. Today Joules had gone in for multiple surgerys on her legs, back and lower abdomin. She was in the ICU now so visiting hours ended earlier than usual. I told Michael and Paul I would take the last shift to stay with her. We'd all gotten 1 large hotel suit right next to the hospital and we were all taking shifts to stay with her. It as around 5pm now and I'd been sitting ith her for about an hour now. I was reading 'Of Mice and Men' to her. It was one of our favorite books.

The doctor had told me the other day while he as checking up on her that she could hear everything that was going on around her. After that I had pretty much one sided conversations, I told her all kind of things. I told her about the good times I had with my Dad, I told her about making up with my Mom. It as actually theraputic in a way. It helped me to get everything I'd been holding in for so long out. I kne if if she was awake she would still listen. She was a great listener. I missed her. So much. All I wanted was for her to wake up, not only for my sake, but more so for Michael and Pauls sake.

I was sitting with her when I heard a knock on the door. I looked up. It was LeBron. He smiled and walked in. "Tom, how ya doing man?" he asked.

"Uhm, I'm alright. You know hanging in there."

"It'll be alright. I just came to drop these off." He said lifting up the vase of flowers in his hands.

"Well I'll give you a moment alone. I've been wanting to get a drink anyway." I got up and alked to the door. "I'll be right back." I headed towards the elevator.

~~LeBrons POV~~

Tom walked out of the room and I walked over to Joules beside. I set down the vase of flowers and a picture of her and I from the Olympics down.

"Hey kid! I just wanted to come drop by and see how you're doing. Not so great" I chuckled. "But I know you'll be okay. You're one of the strongest people I know. And you have tons of people ho love you. Especially Tom. He loves you a lot, I can see it. Who else would travel across the world just to sit at someone's bedside. That takes so much love to do. When you wake up, you need to tell him how you feel. But who am I to tell you what to do." I laughed.

"All I can say is that I really want you to wake up. We all need you back in our lives. It's been too long without you here. I was talking to your Dad and he's a mess. Just please Joules, wake up." I pleaded.

A few minutes later Tom cae back and we chatted before I had to get home.

~~TOMS POV~~  

-January 1, 2013-

It'd been a week. She still hadn't woken up. Day in and day out she just lay there. Looking helpless as ever. Countless numbers of people had come to see her. paul Michael and I obviously. LeBron had been here, David was here for a few days, Abby had come up from Columbus, Ryan was coming, Nathan and Greg had been here and left yesterday. Her room was filled with tons of baloons and flowers, and that was only the begining of it. There were more in our hotel room. Joules was a common topic on Twitter and ESPN had done a story on her and after that tons of athletes had flooded her Twitter feed with get wells. It put tears in Pauls eyes. Just the amount of support there was, was over whelming.
