The Story Of Us

Chapter 14; It's Over

**Johnathan's POV**

   I laid on my bed, I couldn't rest. When I looked on my right there was someone on another bed. He was sleeping, he looked like a little kid.

"Psst" I whispered, the nurses were supposed to have me asleep.

The boy looked at me smiling, he didn't answer.

"What are you doing here?" He just kept staring at me, he shrugged.

   Then he started to pretend to choke himself, and pointed at his head.

Cancer?

"Anybody waiting for you?"

It seemed like he was trying to decipher a code when I spoke, after a while I could hear him barely whisper.

"Vic...to..ri..a." My mouth widened, that's when I noticed a girl beside him.

"Victoria!" I whispered loudly, she woke up.

  Yep... it's her. That means...

She looked shocked to see me.

"Why aren't you at the dance with my bro?!" I asked angrily.

She looked stunned, she didn't know what to say and I knew it.

   "I have to be here." She told me, almost as if she were about to cry.

"I'm sorry." She said, and acted as if I weren't there.

  She was holding the kid's hand, "that your brother?"

  I asked her, she nodded.

So he's the autistic brother. Does he have cancer or something?

I wondered, what would Jose do if he knew?

**Alyssa's POV**

   Tears were streaming down my face, I trusted him.

Why didn't he tell me!?!

I was angry with him, how could he keep this from us? Did Katie know?

Is that why she's moving?

I shook away the thought and cried.

"YOU SHOULD'VE TOLD US."

"I know, but Ryan-" I slapped him.

   "I don't care what Ryan wanted."

Katie looked at him with a fire in her eyes too, she was just as mad as I was.

"He has a heart disease, care to make up for that?!" She asked him coldly.

"I'm sorry, I just wanted to get everyone together that way..."

He started but didn't finish.

   "That way what? He would die in peace?!" I asked him breathing too heavily.

Katie put her hand on my back and I couldn't help but cry even harder.

   "I trusted you. You couldn't care to tell us that?" I asked him bitterly.

"I. Trusted.  You.... even though you and him both left us stranded." I told him, I couldn't hold back anymore.

  "I'll fix this, I swear. Have faith in me, I came back so I could. Just trust me." He told us, sounding confident.

  I didn't answer, I wanted to see how this turned out.

  "Alyssa, trust me. I will do anything to fix this and make you not hate me or him. I swear it!"
