How Can You Be So Trusting?

Chapter 17 - The Questions

Janus's P.O.V

It was four days after I had been in hospital. I now had a cast for my arm and about 50 get well cards from family and my friends. Patton had stayed with me the entire time as we just watched movies, the hospital staff tried to get him to leave but couldn't so the tutor for my school work had to teach both of us  she didn't mind but it was kinda weird having people look at us confused of why Patton hadn't left yet. It was sweet that he descided to stay even though it would affect his school work.

We had both been delivered back to our houses on the afternoon of Friday meaning we had missed almost a week other than a few hours. I didn't really care, all I really though of was Patton and that weird encounter I had while I was unconscious.

Patton did tell me that Logan and Remus refused to leave my side until I woke up and that I was so still like an empty body. It was sweet of those dorks.

I'd have to tell the group chat and school what happened to me. I still hadn't told anyone because it was such a weird thing that happened. I was still confused about it myself. Every knows that Roman killed himself there was nk murderer yet they still implied it. They just conected some dots that didn't go together, like my arrival and everything that had gone bad. I wasn't even part of half of the things that went wrong.

Either way, I overheard my mother talking about a birthday party and inviting all of his friends. I don't know who his is but I'm assuming it's me and Virgil. Our birthdays were surprisingly on the same day and my mother found that out at Logan's party a while ago when my mum and aunt were catching up. I'm kinda excited, it would be my first birthday with friends.

It was Saturday now and I had absolutely nothing to do!

I opened up the group chat to talk to the others since I had barely spoke to them through out the entire week because I was hospitalized.

Janus: Hey

Patton: Hiya!

Logan: Salutations.

Emile: heya

Virgil: sup

Janus: Could I add Remus to the chat, just asking.

Patton: Sure!

Virgil: whatever as long as our neighbourhood nerd and him don't nerd out about bodies

Logan: They are rather interesting and he just happens to know quite a bit about it out of curiousity.

Remus has been added to the group chat

Remus: sup bitches and logan

Logan: Your grammar is atrocious.

Virgil: no one knows the meaning of the word

Janus: It means horrible.

Patton: Thank

Logan: Thanks*****

Remus: oooooooo he uses slang as well thats new

Logan: I'm going to throw my phone out of the window.

Janus: Don't you know who'll explode like a volcano.

Remus: SIMILE!

Remy: WHO STOLE MY NAME?! SKSKSKSKSKSKSKKSKSKSKS

Patton: Oh darn.

Remus: bitch you stole my name

Remy: Bitch

Remus: bitch

Remy: Bitch

Remus: bitch

I turned off my phone, those two are way too competitive so this'll go on for ages, I'm not gonna wait for them too stop. I went down stairs after struggling to put a shirt on and everything else. I was going to visit Remus today or just chill in the park hoping Patton would come.

I looked at my phone once again and it was descided.

Park it is.

"Bye mum!" I yell as I leave the house with two books that I haven't read or finished.

"Bye!" I hear her from the house. She sounded so happy to hear me say mum again and not just mother.

(A/N Moth-er. Thank you for coming to my TED talk)

I went back into the vacant park and opened my handbag because screw you, they are useful and stylish. I grabbed my book from the other day and began reading with a great struggle but no matter.

I heard footsteps coming towards me as I read the book. They stopped in front of me.

"Don't you think that's gonna strain your arm Jan?" Patton was here.

"I don't mind," I told him.

"Let me help," He stood by me and held one side of the book, "Whatcha read so far?"

I told him everything I had already read as he just chuckled slightly at the parts I explained oddly.

"Thanks, now I can read along side you," My face flushed at the person reading with me as he sat on a swing next to me and held it next to the one I was sitting on.

We read for a few hours before Patton got a nodification on his phone telling him he had to go.

"Um Patton..." What I said kind of sounded like a question but not that much, it was weird.

"Yeah Jan?" He questions me.

"Why do you hang out with me?" A question that had been picking a my nerves. A question I finally had the courage to ask him. A question I've wanted to know the answrr to for a while.

"Why," He began, "I knew from the moment we met you were someone who just needed some love like the others, you're a great person and I love spending time with you. It's like a little break from reality if uou know what I mean,"

Those words were the words I've wanted to hear from someone for years and it's been said by the man who probaly doesn't even love me back. It still means so much coming from such a caring person, even if he would of said it to anyone else.

"And you're the only person I'd ever say that too," Patton hugged me as I was left in shock and waved me goodbye as I did the same. Did he love me back?

I walked back to my house to smell a beautiful smell filling the air. A roast dinner on a Saturday? Strange but alright.

I sat down at the table. My mum looked like she had something to tell me. Something incredibly significant.

"Son, the question I wanted to asked you a few days ago," This..., "Do you have any idea what I wanted to ask?"

This question had been tajnting me since the day I heard about it and yet I still have no idea what it is.

"No I don't know what you want to ask," I saw her smile a bit as she heard me.

"Do you want your father in your life?" That was the question? To have a man I've never even met in my life to come into it? But I'd be able to know my other parent and know him unlike my whole life.

"No," I had made my descion and I don't regret it.
