Hayes started to close his eyes. He drifted off into a deep sleep within minutes. I knew my sister and Nash would be done any minute now. I gently picked up Hayes' hand off my waist and slid off the bed. I reached the door, when suddenly Hayes called after me. "No don't go" Hayes cried out. Tears still dripped from his eyes. "Hayes I have to" I replied. I didn't want to make him more upset, but I didn't want to keep my sister waiting either. Hayes sat up in his bed. His eyes were bloodshot from crying. He wiped his eyes and stood up. "Okay," he answered, dropping his head to face the ground. I ran up and hugged him. "I'll see you tomorrow? Okay?" I whispered. He nodded his head. I ran downstairs into the basement.
