Ethan's pov

Today we get to see Alex.
I am so nervous and anxious to see him.

Grayson was shaking the whole way.

"You are fine it's gonna be okay" I grabbed his hand as we pulled into the parking lot.

He calmed down but he looked a mess.

I got out and walked over to his side opening the door for him.

He stood up and closed the door.

"I- can't" he choked.

"Yes you can I'll be right there with you" I smiled.

He gave me a half smile.

I fixed his hair a little and then grabbed his hand walking inside.

I told the lady we were here to see Alex.

She remembered us and let us to his room.

As I was about to go in, Grayson stopped.

I turned to see his eyes closed and taking a few deep breaths.

I smiled at him.

He soon opened his eyes and nodded.

I opened the door to revel the TV, a few flowers, balloons and gifts.

I walked in further to soon see him.

I knocked my hand on the wall.

Alex turned to me and smiled.

"Hi" he smiled big.

Half of his face was wrapped, along with his arm and his foot.

I walked closer to him with Grayson.

"Gray" Alex smiled.

"Hi" Grayson said his voice cracking a little.

We talked a little, Alex trying to make Grayson feel better.

"Surgery was hell" he showed us everywhere he had surgery and explained it to us.

Grayson soon laid his head on my shoulder.

I leaned my head a little on his as Alex still explained everything.

"Anyone else come to visit you?" I asked.

"My parents and siblings, a few cousins and some friends" he said.

I nodded.

Soon it was fine for us to go.

We hugged Alex and left.

Grayson didn't say a word since we left and we are home now.

"Gray" I said.

"Hm" he hummed.

"You okay" I asked

He turned to me.

I seen his eyes start to water.

I walked to him and hugged him
