The unexpected and love

The unexpected and love *final chapter*

Time is dwindling down and everyone is worried about Sam. His parents, his friends, and his boyfriend. It was the day of Sam's birthday and everyone gathered around Sam. It was a rainy day and everyone seems down and gloomy. Two more days before they pull the plug. The doctors don't even know why Sam isn't doing well it was very strange. Everyone shed a tear or two the day of his birthday. Susan's baked a cake and when everyone wasn't suspecting it Susan and her mom (Sam's grandma) came into the room. They sang happy birthday to Sam and ate cake. Throughout that day all of Sam's friend were confused on why the grandmother would say 'she I meant he' all day. Only three of his friend knew the reason why. After 10pm everyone went to a restaurant and eat and dine. Everyone except Jaxon.
  Jaxon sat by the bed holding Sam's hand "Sam please wake up! Please wake up. I can't lose you not you." Jaxon pleas but still no response.  Jaxon said those words over and over again until he cried to the point he couldn't say it anymore cause he was choking on his tears. He cried and cried it felt like his entire heart was gonna give out. After the dinner at the restaurant Ethan went over to the hospital where Jaxon was at. "Come on buddy." Ethan says to Jaxon which startled him. Jaxon looked up still crying. "O-okay." He says a sheepish voice and then looked over at Sam and kissed his forehead. "Please wake up." He says turning his back and leaving to Ethan's house. Jaxon has been staying at Ethan house due to his mom and his dad living in another city makes it hard. His dad is about to leave state when he gets custody of Jaxon but for now he just gonna stay at Ethan's.
  The next morning, and also known as the last morning before they pull the plug everyone gathered to the hospital. Sam's mom and dad agreed to let everyone say there goodbyes if Sam isn't awake at 9:00 pm. That morning Sky was preying for Sam to wake up she couldn't bare a life without him. Afterwards she ate breakfast with Sam's parents and everything was silent. The gloomy faces all ate their breakfasts which tasted bittersweet. Afterwards a trip back at the hospital. After an hour or two at the hospital Susan decided to text all Sam's friends to meet at 'Val Vally Cafe' for lunch and a small meeting. The time soon passed and that's exactly what happened. Sam's parents, Sky, Jaxon, Ethan, Cathrine, Ryan, and John gathered. As they all ate their lunch Susan explained how that day was going to work out.
"If Sam doesn't wake up at 6pm we will let everyone have one hour to say goodbyes, talk to him, and prey. After your hour is up you will switch the hospital visiting hours ends at 12 unless your spending the night but I'm sure you all knew that."  Susan says to the group. They all agreed and soon went back to the hospital.
Everyone was so on edge. They moved back and forth, fidgeting , preying , crying, and panicking every so now and then. Then it happened the clock struck 6pm and the tears starts to roll. Ryan decided to go in first and talk to him. As Ryan got his time alone everyone else out the room held hands tightly.
Ryan walks in the room. The air feeling colder than ever his eyes are in the brink of tears and everything went blank in his head. He sat by the chair next to Sam and he started out saying "Sam, please wake up!  I miss you a lot and I regret not paying attention to more and not hanging out. Please wake up! Sam I need you we weren't done sharing memories yet and if you leave I don't know where I'll be with out you. With out you there's no one to make jokes with. You were the reason me and John got along. The reason the group exist and without you...it...it isn't the same." Ryan started crying. "Sam...you mean a lot to everyone so please if you can hear me please wake up." Ryan started to tremble he held Sam's hand as tears roll off his eyes after a while of crying and begging he looks at the time and decided to say goodbye because he didn't have enough times. "Sam if this is goodbye then I want a few words to tell you before I leave." Ryan wiped his tears aside and cleared up. "Sam, you are really strong and smart. Your everything I look up to. Where ever you go if you don't make it then I hope your safe there. I love you bro no homo. I guess this is it goodbye." Ryan tried to smile at the end but couldn't after crying a bit more he gets up attempts to hug Sam for he thinks the last time.
John went next as he watch Ryan exist the room his heart dropped. He couldn't believe it this might actually be the last he see Sam's. He walks into the room. Uncomfortably sat next to Sam and tried not to cry. "Bro you need to wake up. Your my homie and I need someone to get in trouble with me. I need someone to talk to about girls." John's laugh to him self sobbing. "Right now I can see you hitting me calling me asshole. Heh those were the days. Hey I remember back when we did some crazy shit and I got you drunk for the first time. Man those were the days God I can't believe we got invited to a senior party when we were only sophomores. That was one of the best times. Sam look without you there's no one to do crazy shit with." John looked at the floor then back at Sam hoping to see him wake up but John soon gave up. "Sam if this is goodbye then would you do one thing if you die can you tell Satan I'll be there soon to party." John quietly laughed at him self. "Sam I'm gonna miss you! Your one of my partners in crime. Your my bro. I love you dude and I hope you'll be right there waiting for me." John gets up noticing he went one minute over an hour. He still tried holding the tears in but before he could exit the door the tears came and he was uncontrollably crying.
Cathrine went in next after seeing John cried she started crying to. She walked inside and sat next to him. She then grabs his hand and instead of saying anything she sat there for a moment and looked at him. All she could think about are the memories her and him had. She was devastated he couldn't die like this. He had a whole life time in front of him and she couldn't believe that if he doesn't wake up it will be cut short. "I still have hope you wake up Sam. Look I'm saying this for everyone behalf but we all need you. Your parents cherish you and love you so so so much. You are there little hope. Without you there torn, not just your parents it's us to. Ryan thinks about a lot to the point when you try talking to him he rarely isn't paying attention. John even though he may not show it he seems like he's on the verge of break down. Ethan he's not doing well and he's breaking down every now and then. Jaxon oh boy he is like terrible he barely shows up to school and when he does he so focus on you. He goes to the hospital every time he has the chance. He worries about you a lot. Sky I may not know her very well but she isn't holding up either." Cathrine cried. "You helped me my sophomore year when there's tough time and I felt like giving up you were always there. Now I'm here for you so I need you to wake up..." Cathrine looked down and emptiness filled the room. When she looked back up she checked the time. "I...I guess this is goodbye..." she said sniffling and tears rolled down her face. "I love you."
Ethan soon stepped in heart pounding and he could hear the clock faint ticks. Everything seemed fast and someone threw away the slow down remote. He couldn't believe Sam still hasn't woken up. Tick tick tick tick tick tick...was all Ethan can hear. It almost became unbearable. "I know in times like these I'm supposed to keep my head up and be strong because your gonna wake up. Right? You have to!" Ethan sighed "I believe in you dude you can do it...like you used to say to me. Remember back when I was shy and didn't really talk to anybody beside you and tried to get me to join Ryan and John? You told me I can conquer anything as long as I put my head to it. After you said that you punched my arm and said I believe in you. From that day on i looked up to you.. Even when your scared you give others confidence." Ethan cried a bit and then continue to say "without you I wouldn't have made the friends I have made. Next year we're gonna be seniors and i really want to spend my last year in high school with you because your my favorite memory." Ethan than breathed in. "Sam I love you bro but if this is goodbye then I have to say it. So I never thought I'd say this but goodbye...." Ethan said as he got up and left the room.
Sky decided to go last as she walked down the hallways to get into Sam's room, behind her in the waiting room Sam's parent approached Jaxon."hey sweetie out of evernyine one here you've visited Sam the most and I was wandering if you'd like to go last." Susan says crying a little. Jaxon nods and agrees.
When Sky made it to his room she collapsed. "Sam, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry..." she repeated this as she cried for while. "I should of been there with you and I wished I had." She took some deep breathes to calm down. " Sam I really wanted to say this to you when you were awake but if you don't make it I'd rather say this now. Ever since we were kids I had a small crush on you which turned into feelings. I really really like you. I...I..I mean I don't just like you I love you Sam. What will I do if your gone? You were my very first friend. Remember back when we were 5 you told me when we're adults we will be the best detectives in the world. Heh I really wish it would be you and I. Next year I'm planing to join the military and hopefully become a detective one of these days. I miss those days where we ran around played tag, ate ice cream, had movie nights, and just plain out fun. I remember the last time I saw you to...you were upset...but when I came over I saw a smile I haven't seen before...but I knew it was real...not only that but it made my day better. Sam you help me through a lot your my best friend." Sky couldn't hardly breathe but she was able to get up off the floor and walk towards Sam and sat next to him. "Sam I love you so very much. I'm sorry I couldn't say this before and this might even be too late. Sam Sam I CANT DO THIS." She screamed for a second realizing her emotions are going everywhere and she didn't know to control it. "Sam I love you so very much but I'm afraid if you don't wake up this will be good bye." She hugged him. "Goodbye bestie." She whisper in his ear trembling. Sky gets up and leaves out to the waiting room. Sam's parents Will and Susan went into the room together. Will squeeze Susan hand as they were both in tears. When they walked in they began to prey even though Will didn't exactly believe in God he still preyed. After awhile Susan played an old song it was Sam's favorite song back when he was young. As she played it she held Sam's hand they both watch. "My baby boy..." Susan says. The parents talked to Sam for a bit and cried. Sam was there only kid and now there losing him. They couldn't believe, Susan wanted to hope that Sam would make it but she slowly lost it. Soon there hour was up and Will was holding Susan as she weeped they said there goodbyes and when they went back into the waiting room they ask Jaxon if he wanted a ride home but Jaxon shooked his head. "I'll walk" he says softly.
Jaxon walks into the room he started to shake he knew this feeling all to well. His stomach twist and turn. His eyes watered again. "I can't lose you. Not here not now. Not ever! I wished...that we would of hung out more. I wish that day at the mall when I left early...I wish I didn't...I wish I did more things with you. You can't cut this short...Sam I love you. Look everyone has left me the only people I have left is you, my dad, and Ethan.  I don't want to lose you. Sam we never even dance together...you mean a lot and when you came into my life I was happy I never really had friends and I never had a friend who was like you. Your unique and funny. I think about you a lot and I need you to wake up. Look so many people have left me in my life. Sometimes I feel like I'm going to be alone forever so please wake up and prove me wrong. You only have 12 hours to wake up before they will pull the plug. I believe you can wake up." Jaxon wiped his tears and move the chair to have his back towards Sam. "Sam if you were meant to die then I'm sorry for being self fish I just don't want to lose you. Say hi to my older brother he will make you laugh trust me. I will meet you soon Sam. If you can hear me please remember me because you will forever be in heart. Sam it's really hard to let go of you. What will I do without you?" Jaxon turns back around and hugs Sam "please wake up please please please..." he kept repeating himself. After while he kissed Sam and whispered in his ear that he loved him. As he got back up a nurse had knocked and walked in. "Visiting hours are about over." She said Jaxon turned and said "this is were our story ends...I hope you wake up soon before 12pm tomorrow. Goodbye..."  Jaxon then walked outside and his knees gave out he collapse in the street crying. After an hour or two he got back up and walked to Ethan's house.
  The night was long and tiring but the next day soon came. Everyone met up at Sam's house and they preyed and cried. Everyone was on edge pacing around. It was 11:30am when the phone rang. Susan picked it up. After a minute of her talking on the phone holding Will's hand she placed her hand over her mouth and kept shaking her head no. Tears spilled from her eyes as she fell back into Will dropping her phone. She started weeping and that signaled everyone that Sam isn't gonna make it. Will bend over and picked up the phone. "Thanks for letting us know we will be down there soon." He says as hung up the phone. Everyone started crying and hugging each other. It was devastating for everyone but from that day forward everyone kept there heads up. Years past and Jaxon lives at his dad house and he still haven't let go of Sam. Some nights he would break down crying. He missed Sam so much. Sky got into the Military. Ethan, John, and Ryan lived together in apartment and Cathrine started college in another state. Susan and Will got remarried, and yet everyone has stayed strong for Sam. So this is were the story ends.
