Hunter's Point Of View
Nathaniel gets to come home today, today is Saturday. I have to pick him up. Dakota gave me permission to sign the discharge papers. I also have news for him. I'm not leaving the 4th of July anymore. I'm leaving September 18th instead. I think he'll be happy. I hope so. I get to spend more time with my best friend.
I'm driving to the hospital now. In my Jeep Wrangler. Wearing a long sleeve dark blue tee, gray flat front shorts, dark blue Nike elites and some Nike skate shoes that I just threw on.
When I arrive I park my car and walk inside. As I walk through the doors there is a massive security guard. Why? I don't know. I look to the front desk. There is a woman signing papers and the guy behind the desk telling her what to do. I walk over. When I get there the lady puts the pen down and leaves. Just in time.
"Hunter, how can I help you?" He asks. He has short black hair. Blue eyes. Muscular. Has a beard. Wait a minute.
"Mason?" I say.
"Yes?" He says.
"Dude, I can't believe I didn't recognize you before," I say. Mason is one of Joshua's friends. Wow. I haven't seen that guy in so long it feels weird to even think his name.
"Well. Hunt, how can I help you?" He asks.
"I'm looking for Nathaniel," I say.
"Josh's bro?" He asks.
"Yes," I say.
"Okay, you're here to discharge, correct," he says.
"Yeah," I say.
"May I see your ID to clarify that you are Hunter A. Mathews?" He asks.
"Yup," I say. Then I take out my wallet from my back pocket and take out my ID. Then I give it to him.
"Okay, now just sign here," he says giving me a paper and a pen.
"Uhuh..." I say. I don't even read the paper. Then I sign the bottom and give it back to him. Then I say, "Can I have my ID back."
"Yup," he says. Then he gives me my ID back. Then says, "He's in room A14."
"Okay, thanks for the help Mason," I say and start walking down the hallway.
"No prob," he calls after me.
As I walk down the hall I look at the numbers. A1,A3,A5. A12, A13... A14! I open the door. He's leaning against the wall. Wearing a dark blue sweatshirt, tanish gray cargo shorts, black Nike elites, and some black and grey Nike running shoes.
"Nate?" I say, leaning against the frame.
"Huh?" He says looking over to me, "Oh. Hunt. I didn't see you."
