Jonahs pov
I've lately been worried that Danny would one day crack because of his "space syndrome" as we call it. This was that day. He's been showing signs that he's been "thinking" and concentrating really hard lately so I was trying to prepare myself for this situation. I didn't realize how scary it would be for me. I don't want to imagine what it was like for him. It wasn't just his "space syndrome", he also has panic attacks following them sometimes. After jack took him to the living room, Corbyn, Zach, and I started on cleaning the kitchen. I look over to Zach who is just standing there white and pale as a ghost. I quickly remember that he hates blood. Crap. The floor is covered with blood and it covering the broken glass. I stand up and remove my plastic gloves. I tell Zach to go and join jack. He nods frantically and rushes off. Corbyn looks up form the floor and smiles at me.
Corbyn~ "You and him really are cute you know. When this is all over with and Daniels feeling better, I'd like to talk to you about you and Zachary. I see the way you look at him. You love him. Don't you." I nod blushing. He smiles. Not like the fakeish smile he's been giving everyone the past couple of days. A genuine smile. I smile even bigger at my best friend. I'm glad he's moving on and feeling better.
Me~ "Your doing alright eh'?" He chuckles and nods.
Corbyn~ "I will always love her but I'm fine for now. I wish I could just explain the truth to her." He frowns and his lip twitches as he holds back a tear. I quickly change the atmosphere by cleaning again.
We finishing the kitchen and call Zach back in quietly. My soup is cold as it has been sitting out. I warm it up with the rest of Daniels soup and serve it to zach as Corbyn does his dishes. I offer Jack some but he refuses to eat until he knows Daniel is alright again. We are all quite scared of Daniels "space syndrome" actually. It gets quite terrifying. Even Logan gets scared sometimes. And he's Logan. I have multiple memories of us having great times and whatever, and he just spaced out. We were thinking of taking him to a physiatrist, but decided we'd wait until things got bad. Things got bad. I take a last glance at Jack with a sympathetic look. He smiles softly and looks down at the boy curled up in his lap. He strokes the brown haired male and stares at him admiringly. I smile once more before returning to the kitchen to join Zach for our belated lunch.
It's now 3PM and the incident happened 2 hours ago. Danny is still sleeping which confuses me as he sleep good at Shay's, Mitchell, house. I try and shake the thought but it returns constantly. I decide to take my mind off of the fact that he's not waking and decide to watch the television. I head upstairs and turn on the tv in my room. I scroll through the channels and soon stop at Hallmark. Harry Potter is on so I watch that. Succeeding at my task to forget, I watch the British boy start his 5th year at Hogwarts. Smiling from my lips to my eyes I watch the screen. I'm such a nerd but hey. I don't care. It's Harry Potter.
Around another 2 hours later the movie ended. I check my phone for the time, 5PM. I go downstairs after stopping in Corbyns room to check on the blond boy. Peeking in the door I find him sleeping. I take observations to around his room. On his nightstand he still has the framed picture of him and Christina that I took when we went to Disney Land. I frown at the picture of the happy couple smiling. I walk over to the nightstand. He has Polaroid pictures of him and Christina along with those rows of pictures you get in photo booths at movies and such. I look deep into one specific picture of him and her. He is looking into her eyes as she laughs at whatever cheesy joke he told her. He really did/does love her. I put the picture down and look around the room. He has one of her old hoodies that she left here on his bed. His hand close to it. She never came by the house to pick all her stuff up. That got me thinking a bit. And no, not Danny thinking but just a quick thought. What if I tell her to come over and get her stuff. I will send Corbyn off for something and when he gets back I'll have them talk. Yes. I put the idea in the back of my head and quietly creep out of the room to head downstairs.
As I walk downstairs a smile forms itself on my face. Relief rushes over me like a wave in the ocean. Still smiling, I practically run to the couch where Jack was holding Daniel crying his eyes out. Daniels eyes were open and his face and head was burrowed into Jacks chest. They're legs and arms were threaded together. Jack started to let go of Daniel as he calmed down a little bit. Daniel stood up but started to fall. He caught himself and I walked to him. Engulfing him in a hug I whispered
Me~ "I'm so glad you're ok. We have to talk later in private." He nods and we pull away. Corbyn comes downstairs followed by Zach. They hug him and we all sit down and watch television as I curl up into Jacks chest once again. I see Zach mimic my actions into Jonahs chest. My eyes follow to Corbyn. His eyes drop and I try not to think about his feelings. I have to stop thinking. I unravel myself from Jack who gives me an irritated look. I point to Corbyn smoothly and he nods understandably. Jonah looses his grip on Zach who pouts but soon understands.
Jacks pov
I was getting worried when Daniel wouldn't wake up. My mind was stressing out so much I thought it would burst. But then his eyes fluttered open revealing the ocean we all adore and love. I start to bawl. No not the bad kind. I was so happy he woke up. I pulled him to my chest and he giggles a little. Soon Jonah comes in and hugs him. Corbyn and Zach following. We all lay down and cuddle with the ones we adore romantically, but Corbyn starts to get lonely so we departed a little bit. Jonah started to tense up and his breathing rate increases dramatically. He huffs and takes out his phone. Dialing a number, that I couldn't see who, he starts to exit the room. Confused we all start to follow him but Zach stops us. I'm surprised he's the mature one right now. He tells us that it must be super important and that Jonah needs space. We nod in agreement and continue watching television.
Minutes later, Jonah returns to the room and lets out a deep breath that seems to have been held in for forever. He sits down as we shoot confused and questioning looks at him. He shakes his head and we immediately stop. I can tell he's getting mad. No one. I repeat no one. Wants to see Jonah Marais get angry. He gets loud and quite scary sometimes. We just try and focus on the screen in front of us.
Around an hour later a soft knock was placed on our front door. Confused we all look at Jonah. He gives us a smile and scratches the back of his neck nervously. Corbyn was closest to the door so he went to open it.
Jonah~ "Zach and Jack. Upstairs now please." Zach starts to wine but stops as he receives a quite scary glare from Jonah. I hear the door open and look in the direction as I start heading upstairs. I look at Corbyn as a tear falls down his face.
Corbyn~ "Christina?——."
