Why Don't We Give It A Try? || Blake Gray

Chapter 17

Blake Gray

"You know what? This is all your fault. You knew she clearly didn't want you and that blonde dude to be at her apartment" I yelled.

"Woah, bro. How can you tell we weren't allowed in her apartment? You're obviously just some random guy in her life" The blonde dude said.

"And for the record, it's Jack not blonde dude" he says in his British accent.

"And for the record I don't care" I snapped back, facing the mini window to Hailey's room.

She's currently in the hospital, the doctors said she would need to take her medicine twice a day.

Nothing breaks my heart more than just seeing her, pale on her bed. She didn't deserved this. I should've not left her. If only I knew this would be happened.

But thank God, it was just a small faint and not a big disease that might cause death.

"Excuse me Mr. Gray" the doctor said, interrupting me from my train of thoughts.

"Yeah?" I asked.

"She can be discharged by 4:00 in the afternoon" he instructed "make sure she takes her medicine and takes enough rest" then he gave me those receipts a doctor would usually give.

"Thanks" I said then entered her room.

Trevor and Jack also went in the room.

"Who told you guys could go in?" I asked.

"It's not like you own this room" Trevor said.

I stayed silent. It's better to be silent than to argue with a person who's hopeless.

---

"Whoops, slow down. Don't get too excited" I said while Hailey's arms wrapped around my shoulder. We were walking slowly to her bedroom.

"I can do it myself, I'm fine okay?" She assured as she sat down on her bed.

"You've said that a million times and whenever I'd let you do it by yourself, you'd almost fall. But don't worry I would catch you" I winked which made her cheeks turned red.

Instead of thinking of a comeback, she just slapped my left arm. Then she crawled to her bed and hugged her pillow.

I went to the her side of the bed.

"You're probably gonna get shocked by this but" I started.

"What?" She asked.

"Jack and Trevor came to your apartment awhile ago" I said.

"Oh yeah, when I heard Jack's voice, I got a bit dizzy then fainted." She said while her pillow is on her face.

"Hailey, does he still matter to you?" I asked, out of the blue.

She removed the pillow from her face.

"Nope, I don't even know why I fainted" she said.

"Hey, I could make you coffee if you'd like?" I asked, while standing up, ready to leave.

"I'd love to but the thing is, I don't have coffee" she said, embarrassed.

"Oh"

She wrapped herself in her blanket. She looked so adorable just snuggling like a lost puppy. Okay, I sound weird.

I leaned over to kiss her forehead. Then I left her, going to her balcony.

Seeing all the beautiful scenery that could possibly happen and is happening. Small quaint cafes, huge towers and anything you could imagine.

I hope this stay in London will be worth it. I mean, it's been a heck of a week. Hailey was sent to the hospital just because Jack came to her.

Few days before, Hailey told me I could stay in her apartment. She said I should avoid going near Trevor due to the fact that I could get beat up anytime.

I told her she didn't really have to worry about me. It's amusing how much we can care for one person.

Even if it meant risking your life. But as of now, I'm not risking my life yet.

Then my phone rang.

"Hey" I greeted.

"Blake where have you been??"

"Jasmine?" I asked.

"Who else would it be?" She bragged.

"Bye-"

"No, please dont end the call her, I have something important to tell you" she yelled as I distanced myself from the phone.

"What?" I asked.

"I know you love Hailey, but can we work this out?" She asked.

"First, that's stupid. Second, if I love Hailey, obviously I have no interest in working this out" I stated.

"You're an asshole, go die in hell" she cursed as she ended the call.

It didn't hurt me. I was actually smirking after that. I mean, I've never loved her. She cheated on me the first time, there's no way I'm gonna fall for the second time.

"Blake?" I turned around seeing Hailey still wrapped around her blanket, standing.

"Yes love?" I asked, she laughed at my greeting.

"I think I had a bad dream" she pouted, I went closer to her.

"Let's go" I said, my hands at her back as we walked to her bedroom.

As soon as we were there, we sat down.

"Tell me about it" I said.

"Well, I had a dream that Jack and I were stuck in a room. Then that night he told me he loved me then killed himself" she said, as a tear escapes her eye.

"I don't know Blake, I t-think I still love him"
