I fell asleep for a couple of hours, and I gotta say I slept so deep. When I was with Jeremy I didn't really sleep, I was too scared knowing Kyle was out and about on the streets. Once I got up, I got dressed and I went to the bathroom. I don't leave Neil's room, he had a bathroom in his room. But when I was in there something went down outside where everyone else was. When I got out of the bathroom and made my way to the bedroom door I heard screaming? I slowly open the door.
"CALL 9-1-1 NOW!!!" Neil screamed and ran out so worried and then..When I saw what happened I burst out crying. Never would I think this would happen. Not even to him. I fell to my knees as 9-1-1 was being called. I couldn't speak, I couldn't breath. I didn't know what do, say, or think. How could I have helped in anyway? I couldn't, not with this.
"Come! Hurry, he's shot!"
After that I must've blacked out or something because when I woke up, I was in the car with Trevor. We were driving really fast, I just remembered what happened, actually, what I saw.
"This is bad, really bad Kat. I can't-" He was crying and freaking out. I didn't know what to do. It wasn't safe to drive but there was no other way.
"I-I don't even know w-what happened?" I looked at Trevor tearing up. He just shook his head.
"No one knows what happened," He sniffed. "Why him? He's so young.. He had his full life too live." He stopped the car right there in the middle of the street. He gripped the steering wheel and slammed his head onto it. Just crying and crying. I could see how much he cared for him. He was like a brother to him too.
"He'll be okay, Trevor." I just rubbed his back slowly. There was a car behind us at that point and they honked a few times. Trevor just drove off. The car ride went by fast. We finally arrived at the hospital and Trevor put the car in park but left it on running inside of the building. I grabbed his key and locked the door trying to catch up to him.
I saw Neil pacing back and forth with one hand on his hip and the other scratching his beard. His skin was pale and his eyes were puffy, red, and they were full of sadness. I run up to him trying to calm him down.
"Neil.." I pull on his arm light. He pushed me away a little rough. "I'm just trying to be here for you.. I can't do that if you push me away babe-"
"Don't call me that." He snapped back. I understand he's hurting but I really am just trying to be here for him.
"I want to know what happened."
"Oh, you wanna know?! Someone did a drive by! Jackson wanted to take your damn dog out for you, and BOOM! Out of know where!! Bullets fly through the sky! They hit him! MY BABY BROTHER!! And you know what.." He paused and took a deep breath. "Never mind."
"No tell me!" I shove him, I was sick of getting pushed around by my fears lately.
"Kat, I'm sorry." He then signed, 'I wasn't going to say anything.' I shook my head.
"I know you are upset but you can't be pushing everyone away when things get bad baby. We are here for you. We all are feeling your pain." He then started signing really fast, I knew he didn't want to talk but I couldn't keep up. He was going way too fast.
"Neil!" I stopped him.
"I said, it won't be the same. It would never be the same for you! You guys don't know how I feel. And you will NEVER know. He isn't your family, he's mine. I look out for him, I'm supposed to be taking care of him! It will NEVER be the same for you." He growled walking away. He just left me there. I turn around as he turns the corner, Trevor placed his hand on my shoulder.
"Don't take it personally." He whispered then hugged me. I think that part was more for him then for me. I hugged back as he sniffed.
An hour past before something else happened, "We have code red in the c-wing, code red in the c-wing!" A lady on the announcement said. After swarm of nurses and two doctors came flying by us. As they past by I noticed a letter on the wall painted blue. It was letter C. My mouth dropped open. Neil jumped up from his seat and grabbed a nurses arm.
"What the hell is happening?"
"Some little boy became unstable." She pulled away running to catch up with everyone else. Neil shook his head repeatedly. He started whispering something I couldn't hear nor could Trevor hear. Suddenly he turned around and speed up to us.
"You better pray that wasn't Jackson!" He growled in a deep angry voice while pointing at me.
"Me?" I looked at Neil confused. He started to pace back and forth not answering me. Trevor started to ask him questions but he wouldn't look or speak to anyone. All you heard was growling coming from Neil. Why me? I had nothing to do with this.
"Neil?" A old man in a white coat came out with a clip board. I stood up slow. Not wanting to hear if there is bad new.
"That's me. Is he okay? Can I go see him?" He the doctor didn't answer at first.
"I need you to sign some forms stating you will not sue the hospital for the death."
"Death.." Neil was speechless. His face was blank.
"There is no way to save him, he's not gone yet. But I give him before the sunrise. He already lost too much blood, he's basically just living off of the machine at this time. Another hit an organ," Neil put up his hand not wanting to hear anymore. "It's best if you say your goodbyes' now." He handed him the forms and then told him where Jackson was staying.
Neil was crying and not moving, and so was Trevor. I felt so hopeless, there was nothing for me to do at this point.
"Call Andy, get him down here now." Neil left with those final words to go say goodbye.
