Problems With Love

Chapter 40

Kristen's POV

"Brandon?!" I yell out into the upstairs. "Brandon where are you?" I call. I notice the bathroom door is closed and the rest of them are open. The water isn't running. I go over to the closer door and knock. "Brandon are you in there?" No answer. I try the knob and it's unlocked. I slowly push the door open. I see Brandon laying motionless on the floor. "Oh my god!" I yell rushing over to him. I try to find a pulse. Luckily I find one. "BRANDON! KRIS! COREY! HELP! SOMEONE COME QUICK! I FOUND HIM! HURRY!" I scream desperately. Corey and Brandon come rushing into the bathroom. "Did Anyone call 991?" I ask. "I don't know I'll go ask the rest of the guys. You stay with him," Brandon says rushing out of the room. I grab Bollig's hand. "Come on Bollig. You can pull through! I know you can make it. You have to," I whisper.

Brandon comes rushing bck in. "No one called 911 yet but u just did. The ambulance is on the way," he says crouching down next to me.

The wait seems like an eternity but a few minutes later the ambulance arrives. The paramedics quickly get Bollig onto the gurney and into the ambulance. "We'll meet you at the hospital," they tell us before speeding off. The whole team just stood quietly and dumbfounded in the driveway. We all get into each others cars and car pool to the hospital.

It's a really quiet car ride, at least it is in my car. I don't know about the others but I'm guessing it's pretty quiet too. I sit on the back seat with Brandon and Corey and stare out the window fighting back tears. Brandon notices and pulls me in close to him. "He's gonna be ok," he tells me quietly. I realize we're just staring into each other's eyes. We lean in slowly and gently kiss each other.

Omg! Brandon and I totally just had our 1st kiss. I smile and kiss him again. It was the most amazing feeling in the world. It seems like the whole world stopped. I don't know it's hard to explain, but it was still amazing.

When we arrive at the hospital we all walk in as a group. I walk to the front desk with Brandon and Corey at my sides. I notice she has tons of Blackhawks stuff at her desk, including individual pictures of the entire roster,which I gotta admit is pretty cool. "Excuse me, hi we're here to see our friend. His name is Brandon Bollig," I tell her. I read the name on her name tag. Ariana. "Wait did you say Brandon Bollig?" she asks. I nod my head. "Oh my god what happened? Is he ok? Sorry I'm just a huge Blackhawks fan," she says. "Um I'm not sure. His girlfriend died and I guess he got really depressed and tried committing suicide," I say a tear slipping down my face. "Ok do you know what floor he's on?" she asks. "I'm not sure. I'm sorry he was just brought here by an ambulance," I explain. "That's fine. Just let me call the patient check-in and I'll find out," she smiles. "He's on floor 25," she says. "Ok thanks" I say.

I see her checking out Kris out. I smile. "You should talk to him," I tell her quietly. "I don't know. Do you think a huge hockey star would want to talk to a nobody like me?" she says quietly. "Yeah of course he would!" I say. "Honey he's my older brother. I know he would love to talk to you," I tell her. She smiles. "Hey Kris get your butt over here!" I call to my brother. "What?" he asks. "This is Ariana," I say. "Hey, I'm Kris," he says. "Hi um Ariana," she says. They talk for a while so we just ditch Kris and go up to floor 25. Then we go to the lady at the front desk at floor 25. She's an older lady. Honestly she seems kinda mean and intimidating. Brandon grabs my hand and goes up with me. "Um hi we're here to see our friend Brandon Bollig," he says. "Ok.... what do you want me to do?" she spats. "Um could you give us the room number?" I ask innocently. "Fine whatever!" she says angrily. "Um sorry but is there a problem?" I ask innocently. "Yeah you! Oh is this your boyfriend? You must think you're so cool with your stupid hockey player boyfriend! Yeah you're not. You're really just some ugly lame nobody. By the way hawks suck. Go Bruins!" she screams in my face. "Oh isn't it your job to help people find who they're looking for?" I snap back. "Yes it is," she says. "Then why don't you help us?" I snap back. "Umm sorry for bothering you bye!" Brandon says dragging me away besides it got ugly. I straighten out my hawks sweatshirt and cross my arms. At this point I'm trying not to punch the lady. Brandon notices. "Hey, are you ok?," he asks quietly. I stare down at my feet still fighting the urge to punch her. "No! That was totally uncalled for! All we did was ask where he was and she gave attitude," I say angrily. "Did you find out where Bollig is?" Shawzy asks. "No," Brandon says trying to call me down. "What happened?" Shawzy asks. "The lady is a Boston fan and was really mean to Kristen," he explains. "Oh. Here I'll try."

He came back with no luck. Then Tukka Rask walks in. "Hey Tukka," I wave. Tukka's actually a good friend of mine. We met in college at some thing where there were a bunch of different schools there and we talked a lot and became friends. "Hey!" he says walking over. "What's up?" "Bollig tired committing suicide so we came to talk to him," I say. "Oh. What room is he in?" Tukka asks. "I don't know. I tried asking the lady at the front desk but it didn't really work. She started screaming at me and criticizing me," I explain. "Why?" he asks."She's not a fan of the hawks. She's a Boston fan,'' I say. "I could ask if you want," he offers walking up to the lady.

"It worked but she's not a goalie fan that's for sure," Tukka laughs. "Why do you say that?" I ask. "Well she started scolding me for loosing the Stanley Cup to you guys and every loss that I've had," he explains. "Oh. Well that's kinda rude. It's not all your fault," I say. "Oh before I forget Bollig is in room 52. I laugh at the coincidence. "Thanks Tukka," I say.

We head down the hallway to Bollig's room. Before we go in a nurse stops us. "Sorry he can't have any visitors right now," she says. "I suggest you go back to the waiting room." I groan and walk back down toward the waiting room. We all sit in big red chairs and wait. After waiting for 2 hours some if the guys start to leave. After 3 hours it's just me, Brandon, Corey, and Raanta. Finally Kris comes back up from the lobby. "Dude what took so long?" I ask. "We just talked a lot," he shrugs. "Oh and we have a date tomorrow night," he adds. "Ok.... am I supposed to care? I question. "Whatever," Kris says.

A few hours later Brandon gently shakes me. "Hey Kristen wake up," he says quietly. "We're gonna go get food." I yawn. "Did I fall asleep?" "Yeah for like an hour."

As we're leaving a bunch of doctors go running past us down the hallway towards Bollig's room. We can't tell which room they go into but all we can do is hope Bollig's ok.

A/N Sorry it took so long to update. but I have a question. Do you guys still like the story. I feel like I get fewer reads and votes on every chapter I post. If you guys don't like it let me know and I can stop writing it and start a new story.
