Invisible Twin *Completed*

Chapter 5.

I stepped into the room and the first thing I noticed was how bright the room itself was. The walls were painted a sunny yellow and the trim was white. There was a window that almost covered the one wall, and that window had curtians that had yellow and green flowers against a white background. It was pretty. I know I was focusing on the small details because I was too scared to look at my sister or my family. They didn't notice we were there, at first. I could hear Vanna quietly hicup/ crying and Allison muttering under her breath. I heard Cass sobbing, a sound that I will remember for the rest of my life. My sister doesn't cry, none of my family crys.

'Chris.' My sister says, and that one word alone threatens tears. But I can't cry here. JC squeezed my hand, and I finally looked at my sister. My family was crowded around Cass's bed, and she looked so tiny in the white bed, and so scared. Cass looked up at me, the whites of her eyes red, and her eyes over flowing with tears. Her hair was disheveled. I didn't know what to say. Im never put on the spot.

'I'm scared, Chris.' Cass says softly. My sister and I aren't close anymore, but there are moments when nothing else matters but me and my sister. It's like we are the only ones that can solve the others problem, and If not, we can make the burden better. That was one of those moments. I forgot about Gabe, JC, my mom, my dad, Vanna, and Allison. I ran around the bed and bent over the bed. I wrapped my sister into my arms. I really missed this.

***********Saturday********
Cass had been in the hospital for six days, and already me and my family were practically living at the hospital. I was doing it to be a good sister. But honestly? The hospital creeped me out. Everything creeped me out. And since the 'Cass and Chris moment' everything had gone back to normal. We didnt speak although there was a hundred things we could say. Today JC, Gabe, Kim, and JC's little sibblings were going to the beach. It was nine in the morning and I had already walked home, taken a shower and gotten dressed, and walked back. This hospital wasnt far from my house and it was pretty safe around here. So, I walked through the halls towards Cass's room. Inside, was all my family. Of course that wasnt unusual.

'Hey.' I said softly, It felt like I had walked in on something important.

'You look dressed up for a day at a boring hospital.' Allison declared. I half-smiled at her.

'Yea, I'm going to the beach with my friends.' I said.

'No you aren't.' My mom said simply, and that was when everyone else in the room noticed me.

'And why is that?' I asked. Here's another thing you should know about me, I'm a smartass who doesn't know when to shut up. Cass locked eyes with me as I said this.

'Mom-' Cass started while Allison also started speaking, 'She can-' My mom cut both of them off.

'Cassidey is having her first IV therapy session today. We all need to be here to support her. Friends go seccond to family. While Cass is going through everything, we must keep on being a close knit family.' My mom says. 'And we doing need any more stunts.' My mom adds, and she talks to Allison as she says this.

'That's enough, Jane.' My dad says immediately.

'That is so un fair and you know it! I'm barely even part of this family.' Allison quips, her eyes cold and hard.

'Lets just calm down.' Vanna says quickly. I can tell she doesn't want a full blown argument.

'Nobody is leaving today and that is final.' My mom says. I suck in a breath, because I already know what I'm going to say.

'If I want to go somewhere, I will.' Allison snaps. My dad sighs.

'Mom, they don't need to be here.' Cass tries.

'I already ended this. Nobody is going anywhere today.' My mom snaps.

'No. I will go out with my friends.' I say.
