J(iley) The Breakup

Wishes and Prayers

Piper's POV

Someone tapped me on my shoulder.
I turned around and West was there. Besides West, Eldon, James and me the waiting room of the hospital was now empty.

"Piper, I know that James needs us, but my mum texted me to come home and Eldon has to go too, do you think you can bring him home?", West asked.
"Yes, I think I can, go now", I said smiling.
He nodded and went to Eldon.

As they walked out I walked over to James.
"James it is late, I think we should call a taxi and go home.
We can return tomorrow", I told him.

He was staring at the wall in front of him, you couldn't see any emotion on his face.
He looked terrible he had eye bags his eyes were red and puffy.
He looked exhausted and broken and I was feeling so bad for him.

"You can go Piper, but I stay", he replied not taking his eyes of the wall, as if this light yellow wall, was a TV.
"James, you need some sleep, I am sure that Riley won't wake up today.
After some rest everything will be better", I added.

"No, I stay, but you could inform the dancers of the studio that they won't have lessons tomorrow, especially the parents of the baby ballet students".
"James", I begged him.
James put his hand in his jeans pocket and took his wallet out.

Then he took a note out and gave me the money.
"Take a taxi and be careful, if something happens call me", he said looking at me.
"Alright, but James, sleep a little even if it is only for one hour", I begged him.

Then I left the hospital.
I was preoccupied, but at the same time I knew that he wasn't going to listen to me.

"Piper, finally where were you? And do you know where your brother is?, don't tell me he is still outside", my mum said not letting me speak.

"Mum, Riley got unconscious and she had a surgery, James is at the hospital", I answered putting the money that was left over on the drawer in the living room.
"What?, oh my god, but is she okay?", my mum asked completely forgetting about James.

"Mum she ..she could die", I admitted.
She gasped and it hit her so hard that she had to sit on the couch.
"Oh god, that poor girl, but how did it happened?", my mum asked.

"James said that she was really exhausted, that she lost the power to stand, then she fell and hit her head first on her desk and then on the floor.
The hit her head so hard that she lost really much blood and got a concussion", I recounted the story.
She rested her head with her arm and sighed.

"I am going to pray for her. She didn't deserve this", my mum said.
I nodded.

James's POV

"You're here for Riley, right?", a nurse asked me.
I nodded.
What was she going to tell me.
I had a really bad feeling.
Was Riley dead.
I prayed so many times. My wish to see her before she died would not be realized.
"Riley is...

Haha, I'm so mean I know, what do you think is she going to die?, what is going to happen?
