(WARNING! SIGNS OF DEPRESSION IN THIS CHAPTER!)

Once Gregg got that horrid thought, he immediately went into tears. He went up to Angus, not thinking about his frostbite or his depression, but just him.

"Ohh, Anguss...." Gregg babbled fearfully. "Please don't fade away from me." Angus's face only slightly moved, his eyes twitching as well as his nose. Angus grasped him into a big hug, not touching Angus's frostbit hands and feet. Angus's eyes had actually swelled up with tears.

"I'm so sorry, baby." Angus apologized in a quiet, shaky voice. Gregg's eyes met Angus's slowly, and their minds seemed to lock.

'What should I say?' Gregg thought. Angus frowned to himself.

'What should I do? I love him so much, but... I just wanna end it all.' Angus pondered of the sad topic, a tear rolling down his face. The couple both let out sighs.

"I'm sorry." They both lamented in perfect unison, tears rolling down their faces. They wiped each others tears meekly. Mae and Bea even started to cry, giving each other an awkward hug.

"We n-need to get out of here... B-before I start crying like a newborn." Bea acknowledged Mae, pointing to the doorway with her thumb. Mae nodded in agreement.

"Yep. Agreed." Mae replied, smiling lightly, taking her arm away from Bea's shoulders.

"Gregg, we needa go." Bea confirmed him, going to grab his hand. He backed away.

"No, I-I'm staying with Angus." Gregg sniffled quickly. Bea and Mae exchanged glances, both sighing.

"Gregg, fine, you can stay here, with Angus as long as you please." Mae gave up, as Bea started to walk out of the room, waiting outside. Mae got her bag, going outside Angus's room. The nurse and doctor waved goodbye, as well as Angus and Gregg.

Later that night...

Angus woke up suddenly, sweat falling down his forehead.

"Good god..." He mumbled to himself. "Why all the nightmares, brain?" Angus glanced around the room. Gregg was fast asleep on the chair at the end of the room, and the doctor and nurse were no where in sight. Angus's hands and feet were wrapped up in bandages. He slowly peeled them off. 

'No frostbite anymore.' Angus thought to himself, pleased. 'Just a little bruised'

Angus let himself get off of his bed, sliding his legs off. He grabbed the bag that he kept with him, changing into real cloths - a grey hoodie and blue jeans, to be exact. He grabbed his old bag, and started to leave the hospital...

He wasn't supposed to yet.

Ooh, cliffhanger!! I am SO DAMN SORRY that I haven't updated for a while! Over the hiatus, I got mild writer's block, but, I'm back and ready for business!
