Chapter 62

Brandon's POV

*One Month Later*

"Dad! I'm so glad you came!" Camryn said, hugging me after she opened the door.

"Of course, what did you need me for?"

"Something's going on with Colton. He's totally ditched his friends for his girlfriend and I'm pretty sure they're sexually active. Anytime he's not in school or at work, he's hanging out with her. He's already skipped class for her and I wouldn't be surprised if he called in sick to work to hang out with her. I'm really worried for him. He won't listen to me or Chris so I was hoping you could talk to him since you're the cool grandpa."

"Well shucks, I'm flattered." I smirked. "I can try. I did have a problem child too you know."

"I know, Eddie was such a terrible teenager."

"Oh yeah, I had too problem children." I said and she slapped my arm.

"Danielle, right?"

"Sure." I said, walking into the house. "I'll be back." I sighed, walking up the stairs. I lightly knocked, no answer. I peeked into his room to see he wasn't there. I slipped inside, deciding to do a little snooping to see what I was dealing with. The room felt very stuffy, it stunk and I started to cough.

I picked up his phone and saw pictures that I could probably get arrested for looking at so I quickly put that down. His room was covered with pictures of him and his girlfriend.  I finally came across a lit cigarette sitting on a plate.

"Grandpa! What are you doing in my room?" Colton asked.

"What the fuck is this?" I asked, showing him the cigarette.

"Give me that!" He whined but I held it out of his reach.

"You're smoking now?"

"Please don't tell my parents."

"Colton, this is dangerous! Do you want to end up like your Great Grandpa Andy who is starting to have problems breathing because of his years of smoking?"

"Grandpa, please." He pleaded.

"I can't hide this from them. Did a kid at school get you hooked onto this?"

"No!" I sighed and looked around the room.

"Was it that girl?" 

"Give it back to me!"

"Sounds like this girl is a bad influence on you."

"Grandpa!" He tried to start climbing me to get to it. I started coughing more frequently, suddenly it became harder to breathe.

"Oh shit." I said, remembering my reaction to cigarette smoke. It quickly put it out and ran out of his room. I dropped to my knees in the hallway, trying to get my breath back.

"Grandpa!" He exclaimed, running to me. I tried to talk to him but I was quickly losing breath. "MOM!" He called, getting on his knees next to me. "MOM! IT'S GRANDPA! HURRY! CALL 911! QUICK!" I screamed frantically. My mom took the steps two at a time, putting the phone in between her ear and her shoulder. She pushed me out of the way and got next to her dad.

"Ambulance. I'm Camryn Longsworth and my dad can't breathe. Mid fifties." She said into the phone, telling the operator our address.

"Colton, what happened?" She asked, looking at me. I bit my lip and looked at the ground. "TELL ME!"
