Only you (A ThatcherJoe/ Youtuber fanfic)

Chapter 17

Joe's POV:

I stormed out the door and practically began to run towards Caspar and Alfie's. I don't care if they hate me, Alfie was going to get a piece of my mind. He can't do that and especially not to my sister.

"Joe!" I heard Jim shout from behind me. "Joe stop!" He screamed and I slowed down slightly so he could get whatever he was going to say over with. "Joe what exactly do you plan to do? Hit him? Beat him up? What's that going to do? It won't change what happened. If anything you'll get hurt for showing up. He's probably still upset and angry and reckless so just stop for a minute and calm down." I tried to stop him. "I don't really care Jim." I admitted and my anger boiled as I ran away once again. Jim still calling after me and trying to stop me. He ran after me for 25 minutes straight. We were close to the flat when I heard a scream and turned round.

I found Jim on the floor coughing.  "Jim!" I ran back to him. "What happened?!" I asked panicking. He was breathing heavily and struggling to breathe. "I have no idea. I'm normally fine at running. I-I'm going to be sick Joe!" He warned suddenly and I moved out the way. "Somethings not right Jim." I panicked as I stumbled around for my phone. Of course! I didn't have it! "Do you have your phone?!" I asked Jim and he nodded, pulling it out of his pocket and puking once more. "Codes 2312 mine and Tan's anniversary." I aww'd and called Tan.

"Tan?" I asked. "Joe?" She responded, sounding confused. "Put me on speaker I need to speak to you and Zoe." I said. "Where's Jim?" Tan panicked through the phone. I looked down and saw him passed out in the street. "Grab your keys Zoe and come quick both of you! We're on Ackmar Road by Parson Green. Zoe, hurry! I'll explain while you're on the way." I heard them panic and grab Zoe's keys. "Oh and grab my phone?" I asked and Zoe agreed.

"Okay we're on our way! What happened and where's Jim?!" Tan cried. "He's here with me. I ran and he ran after me. He suddenly fell to the ground and had trouble breathing. He then threw up a few times and now he's kind of... passed out." I admitted and Tan gasped.
"Joe, we'll be there in about five minutes don't move!" Zoe shouted slightly and hung up. "Jim?" I asked trying to shake him. Nothing. I just had to wait.

They finally turned up five minutes later and ran to Jim's aid. "Should we take him to the hospital?" Tan asked shaking. "Well he's been out... nearly 10 minutes so yeah we should." I picked him up and Tan helped while Zoe opened the car door. Tan slipped in the back with Jim and rested his head on her lap as she cried slightly and held his hand.

We pulled up outside the hospital and Zoe ran in while I grabbed Jim again and some nurses ran out to assist me. "His name's Jim Chapman he's 25. I'm his fiancee." Tan stuttered to one of the doctors.  "I wasn't with him Joe was." She nodded towards me. "Okay can you tell me what happened sir?" He asked me and I nodded as we put Jim onto a bed. "We were running for about 25 minutes. I heard a scream so I turned round. Jim was on the floor struggling to breathe and in pain. He then threw up about 4 times and then I looked back, and he'd passed out." "Okay thank you. We will take a few tests so could you wait outside. You will be allowed in within the hour. When he wakes, more tests will be taken." The doctor said and we thanked him. Tan took a seat and just curled up as she made a call to Judy I'm going to guess. She explained everything but told her to stay, she would keep her updated.

A while later, Tan went in and me and Zoe went to grab some drinks. "How do you think this happened?" Zoe asked me and I sighed. "I have no idea. He said he never has trouble running. He's always been able to do it for hours without problems." We handed Tan a drink and asked if she wanted some time alone with Jim. "Can you stay in here? I could use the company." We nodded and took a seat.

Tan and Zoe fell asleep for an hour or two and I didn't want to disturb them. Today couldn't have gone worse. Zoe lost Alfie and the baby. Then Jim. What next?

The girls woke up and we just sat around in silence. A nice, not awkward kind of silence. "Which one of you is Mr Chapman's partner?" A nurse asked and Tan stood up. "Would you like them to stay while we speak?" She asked her and Tan nodded. "Okay so there are no obvious reasons this could have happened. It could be food poisoning or a stomach ulcer but we'll do a scan when he wakes to see if there are any more possibilities." We thanked her and she walked out once again.  "Jim honey, you need to wake up. I need you now." Tan cried again and Zoe held her tight.

6 long hours later, Jim finally started to wake up. "Jim?" Tan asked. "Tan? What happened?" He asked lifting Tan and his hands and kissing hers. "You passed out when you was with Joe." She spoke. 

I headed outside. "Hi Mr Chapman is awake. I just thought you'd want to know." I said to his nurse and she thanked me. "Mr Chapman! How are you feeling?" She followed me back into the room. "My stomach hurts. Other than that, great!"  "Yes, we're trying to find out what it is so we will do some more tests soon." "Thank you." "I need to head out. I have a meeting later and things and I think Zo and I need some sleep and so do you two. I'll speak to you later?" I asked and stood up. "Sure. Thanks Joe. Oh and don't do it." Jim laughed. I nodded even though of course I would do it. I don't care if it's 3am.

Jim's POV:

Joe left and Tan was still gripping me tight. Zoe had left too after Joe as she was exhausted.

"Mr Chapman?" The nurse asked. "Call me Jim." I laughed at her. "Jim, we would like to do an MRI if that's okay?" I nodded and she began with what would happen and talking about things I weren't really listening to. I'd already heard it at the hospital yesterday.

"If you'd like to wait here Miss. We'll take him down now." She spoke to Tan and we shared a passionate kiss before I was taken away.
