Summer Bummer ~{BxB}~

Chapter 15

Evan P.O.V

"I just checked up on Adam he's asleep." I said walking up to the front door of my house where my mom and Scott stood together.

"That's fine we shouldn't disturb him. We can go without him" My mom said with a smile and she led me and Scott out the house where our limo awaited. Scott offered his arm his arm for my mom to take as if she was the queen. I rolled my eyes at Scott's sweet but cheesy gesture. My mom was enjoying every second of it though.

"Scott.. such a strong grip." My mom said while harrassing his arm. "Mom!" I blurted. "I'm only kidding." My mom chuckled then playfully slapped Scott's arm off. Scott just playfully snickered at me.

Mom got into the limo first and just as I was about to enter after her, Scott grabbed my waist with both hands to gently push me aside so he can go in. I couldn't tell if he was being rude or just wanted an excuse to touch me. I'm thinking it was the excuse to touch me because when I got in after he raised both his eyebrows at me in a flirtatious way... buttt it ain't gonna work on me unless he's Adam.

After the semi-long car ride we finally arrived at the hospital where my father was.

The three of us hopped out of the limo and there was a bodyguard outside the hospital entrance.

"Wow Mrs. Carter you're here already!?" the guard said surprised.

"Jeremy you know I'm always here on Saturday nights." My mom said cooly and walked past the guard without continuing the conversation. Okay that was a little strange of the guard to say.

We continued down the halls of the hospital, turned a few hallways, went up several floors through an elevator.

The elevator doors opened and we walked upon the secured floor that my father stayed in. He's the only patient that's on this floor and every corner there's an armed guard.

We walked up to the nurse that sat at the counter and this nurse was currently speaking on the phone ignoring our presence.

"Yes I'll give her a call immediately!" The nurse said then hung up the phone. She finally looked up at us and her eyes quickly widened. "Guess I don't need to call you, you're already here!" The nurse said with a cheerful smile. "What is going on here?" My mother asked sternly. The nurse remained quiet and simply stood up and gestured for us to follow her. I recognized that she was leading us to my father's room.

"No, no, no don't tell me... No, no, no." My mom began to repeat under her breath enough so the nurse wouldn't hear. I grabbed her hand and I too began to start worrying. Just what is going on? I looked over to Scott and saw the serious expression his face carried.

We finally reached the room where my dad was inside. The door was shut. Before the nurse opened it for us she uttered... "He's awake." And quickly opened the door for us to enter.

My mom immediately fell to the floor. "He is?! Really?! Are you sure?!" My mom said with tears in her eyes as she was on her knees gripping onto the nurse's uniform.

I kneeled down to help my mom back to her feet and led her down the room where my dad laid. I roughly grabbed the curtain and slid it as fast as I could.

"Father!" I cried out. Lunging myself towards him wrapping my arms around him. But the hug wasn't returned. After no response from him I slowly unwrapped myself from him and saw the horrified look on his face as he faced me and my mother.

"You both should not be here!" He yelled and then coughed afterwards. "Carter." My mother said sympathetically. "But dad I don't understa-" I said but was cut off.
