Tyler.
"Hey mom, i don't know if I'll get done with cooking in time." I heard mama Joyce say on the phone. "Because we're at the hospital and i don't know how long we're going to be."
I sat back in my chair and tried to get comfortable but it was impossible. My ass hurt sitting in this basic chair. I was all around irritated if you asked me. Not only are we spending pre thanksgiving at the hospital but we don't know how Chris is doing. What makes shit worse is i haven't ate all day because i saved my stomach for that food in the kitchen.
"You ok?" Keeis whispered to me.
"I just want to go home." I mumbled honestly.
"Home home or the house." He asked causing me to chuckle a little.
"The house Keeis." I smiled a little.
"Okay cool thought you was trying to dip out on us." He smirked sitting back in his chair.
Soon a nurse came up to us and guided us to Chris' room. He was sitting up watching tv and eating pudding.
"He suffered a great deal to his brain so he might have migraines from time to time but other than that everything is fine." She smiled before opening the door.
We all walked in and saw his face. His head was bandaged and his face was purple. I felt so bad because my stubborn ass just had to not talk to him.
"Hey fam, are we going home to eat?" He asked sitting his pudding down. "Because what I'm not gon do is eat this stuff."
His mom giggled and went to hug him. "Baby we can go home and eat all you want."
"Ima see about signing you out." Keeis said leaving.
"Where's Christian?" He asked which surprised the hell out of me.
"He stayed home with Heather and Trell." His mom said.
"Oh." He shrugged turning his attention towards the tv.
"Chris baby you don't see Tyler standing here?" His mom squinted her eyes. "The girl been worried about you all day."
"Hey." He nodded his head at me.
When Chris is mad at me it makes me feel I'm not worth his time anymore. Like he doesn't like me anymore and that feeling hurts. I'm sensitive as hell so i hate when people i care about act like ass holes just because they're mad.
I fought back the tears and faked coughed in the process. That didn't help because i felt a tear roll down my face.
"Why you crying baby?" His mom asked hugging me.
Something you don't do to sensitive people trying not to cry. Number 1, you don't hug them because then they just let it out. Number 2, you don't acknowledge them because then because they are caught and all eyes are on them.
I quickly wiped my tears. "I'm fine i just wanted to know if chris was ok."
"You're crying for something else love. Chris what you do to her?" She asked.
He shrugged and continued to look at the tv. See what I'm talking about? Makes it seem like he doesn't care.
I felt more tears coming so i excused myself out the room and blinked them away. Chris could've went into a coma today or lost his memory but he's so mad at something innocent he doesn't care. Keeis walked up with his discharge papers and looked at me weird.
"Why are you crying?" He asked.
"I'm not cryi-"
"Don't lie Tyler, just please." Keeis said grabbing my arms.
I sniffed and sighed. "Does Chris still like me? Like we've been mad at each other since yesterday morning all because of something stupid and i got over it but it seems he hasn't and he's acting like he doesn't care about me anymore and i don't know."
Keeis pouted and hugged me. "Tyler Chris still likes you hell he might love you. When he's mad at you he might seem like an asshole but that's just who he is. That won't stop the feelings he has for you."
I nodded and he whipped the tears off my face. Keeis is slowly becoming the brother i always wanted besides Micheal of course. I miss everyone back home soo much.
"Now we're going to go in that room together." He smiled holding his arm out.
I chuckled and wrapped my arm through his as we went into chris' room.
"Bro I'm surprised they letting you go home. All the medicine you have to take is ridiculous." Keeis said giving mama Joyce the papers.
"Baby you ok?" Mama Joyce asked me.
"Yes mama Joyce I'm fine." I smiled. She gave me a look like she didn't believe. "Really, I'm okay"
"Okay baby, are you hungry?"
I nodded and she smiled. "Chris lets go."
I felt chris' stare on me but i ignored it. When he's ready to talk, I will be here. Chris got prescribed some medicine and we left the hospital. Mama Joyce wanted me to drive with Chris while she rode back with Keeis. She not slick.
"You're going to have to direct me to the drug store to pick up your medicine." I said pulling out the hospital parking lot.
"I love you." Chris mumbled.
I turned the corner and stopped at the red light. I sighed and kept my focus on the road. I could feel Chris' stare on me. "You think spilling the L-word is an apology? Yea right."
"I love you tyler and I never want to lose you. Not to my brother or any man. I've been acting like an asshole and I'm sorry." He apologized. "I really do love you."
"Well when you recover, you can show me rather than telling me." I said turning on a random street. "Can you direct me to the drugstore before we get lost?"
"Just keep straight." He mumbled leaning against the window.
I know he was salty I didn't say it back but it is what it is. Maybe he can stop treating me like shit and I'll say it back. I do love him i was just afraid he didn't feel the same so i kept it to myself. We've only been dating for three months and the last thing I want to do is rush things.
