Conor's P.O.V

I wake up from a nurse carefully tapping my shoulder, asking me if we're alright. I've been sat in this chair for nearly twelve hours now and Jess is still sat on my lap, asleep.

The nurse change Anna's IV-fluids before leaving the room just as quickly as she arrived.

"Jessie gorgeous, let's go home"

I kiss the back of her neck to wake her up. Jess sleepily opens her eyes, looking around the room, disoriented.

"You sure, remember I'm not forcing you to do anything, if you want to stay it's OK for me"

I lean my head down and kiss her soft lips.

"I know gorgeous, but we both need some proper sleep, plus Jack and mum are coming back in just a few hours"

Jess nod and stand up before reaching her hand out to help me up. I kiss Anna's forehead softly and we both leave before we get too emotional.

I wrap my arm around Jess's waist and she lean her heavy head against my shoulder. I feel a bit better when outside, the fresh early morning air filling my lungs as we walk towards the car.

The journey home is quick and done in complete silence, I just think neither of us is in the need of talking, we both know what could happen and it isn't really something I'd like to talk about.

I park the car along the pavement outside my family home and the sun had just start rising over the horizon as we walk in through the front door.

Mum have prepared our room with fresh sheets so we can go to bed as soon as we get in. I loved our room at my parents, it had been decorated with pictures of me and Jess from the early stages of our relationship, mum had even framed posters of my album covers and they were neatly hung up on the wall over the bed and she was good at proudly show them off for whoever visited. Jack wasn't too bad either, his room was filled with different posters from magazines and even awards he'd been winning over the years. I must say I'm proud of him and the journey he's done from moving in with me back in 2015 saying he wanted to start up a channel. I'd had one rule for him to be able to live with me for free and that was to regulary upload a video once a week, something he'd stuck with since then.

"Conor?"

My eyes travel from the pictures on the wall on the other side of the room to Jess that's lying next to me in bed.

"Mm"

I turn over to my side, leaning my forehead against hers, staring into her hazel coloured eyes.

"Remember I'm always here if you need to talk about it"

Jess reach up and place her right hand on my cheek. She wraps her legs around my waist and I pull her even closer to me.

"I know gorgeous, I know"

I feel her lips softly brush against mine.

"I love you more than you can ever imagine"

Warm air hit my face as she breathes out and I tilt my head down to peck her lips once again.

"You know what, I love you even more than that, now let's sleep"

Jess nod and close her eyes, it doesn't take long until she's fast asleep besides me. I on the other hand struggle to just relax, today had been one of the hardest days in my life and I still haven't got my head around it.

Slowly stepping out of bed do I walk over to Jack's room, knowing him and his sleeping habits he would probably be awake too.

The door creaks as I push it open, facing Jack sat in his bed with red puffy eyes. His room is a total mess and I know he's done it on purpose.
