Guardians Of Rock And Roll

27. Careful for What

Link
Josh hadn't come back yet, so I just sat on my bed in what I now know is the infirmary. About 20 minutes had passed and Josh finally came back in."hey Linkin log, you ready?" He asked, picking up his phone."yeah, I feel pretty weak though" my voice trailed as I sat upright."You took a pretty bad beating, I'm here to help though" he said sitting on the side of the bed."thanks jish" I weakly replied and smiled."Heres your clothes, they washed them" he said grabbing the clothes off the end of my bed."thanks, I kinda need help, I feel like paper.." I said rather embarrassed."it's okay, I'll help" he said reassuring me. I threw the bed sheet carefully off of me and slowly swung my legs over the edge. Josh offered me his arm to push up on so I could stand so i took it. I was already wearing a white spaghetti strap tank top and white basketball shorts, so all I had to take off was the shorts. I shimmed out of the shorts and Josh helped me get my feet into the skinny jeans as I pulled them up and zipped them. He then helped me pull my slightly oversized guns n roses shirt over my head and arms. He then put on my socks and vans, lacing them up. I used his arm to stand up again then shook a bit."you okay?" He asked looking at me."Yeah.. Just a bit cold" I told him."here" he said and grabbed his camo jacket off of the bed and helped me into it."thanks Josh.." I said pulling myself up to kiss him, he carefully kissed back and helped me to the elevator to where we'd go to Elton. We got there and walked into the conference room. Josh helped me into my chair then sat in the one next to me."welcome, guardians" the intercom said, only the guardians appeared to be in the room. We all focused to the center of the table where a blue hologram appeared. It showed Elton speaking."I'm currently busy but have to inform you all that Lucifer and Courtney have disappeared. And do to the fact everything seems stable, and you all have taken a severe beating, I want you all to go home and take some time to heal and rest for when they come back" the hologram ended, and the screen disappeared. We all sat at the table, and we all observed each other. Pete had an arm cast that ended just above his Elbow, Tyler had crutches, Patrick had a few stitches on his eyebrow, and everyone else had a few scratches."we can all just crash at link and I's" Jax offered, everyone nodding. Josh helped me up and we all gathered our things and left.

    We all just arrived home and had drove to Jax and I's. Jax and Brendon helped Pete and Tyler get to the spare rooms first, then the rest of panic left for Their house and Joe went to his wife. Josh helped me to my room and I climbed into the bed and he sat on the edge."Linkin log?" He questioned, suddenly serious."yeah?" I asked looking him in his eyes."when Elton pulled me away earlier.. He told me something I never wanted to hear" he paused, his eyes filling with tears,"he told me that you weren't doing too well and if you weren't careful..." He paused again, now full on crying,"you could die" he finished throwing his head in his hands and now uncontrollably crying. I pushed myself up and sat next to him and threw my arm across his back."Josh.. I'm gonna be okay.. I feel it, don't worry about me.. I'm gonna be okay, and so are you" I tried to reassure him, his tears slowing. He looked at me and pulled me into a tight hug and resting his head on my shoulder."I love you so much Genevieve" he said after a few minutes, and I was rather happy with my reply.

   "I love you, Joshua".
