Change (a Hayes Grier fanfiction)

Thirty Five

• Listen to Mad World by Michael Andrews when listening for this for effect•

The plane ride was long and boring, as usual but I just sort of stared off into space. It wasn't until I got to the hospital and was face to face with my ex that it occurred to me that my brother may die.

"Hi Hayes." I say with a small wave. He engulfs me in a hug but I push him off.

"I'm here for Taylor and Taylor only." I state making things very clear.

"CC?" Cam says to me, he pulls me aside and apologies for everything.

"Its ok, but I think it's best if I stay with my Aunt."

"Are you sure?"

"Yah, if Taylor makes it then I don't know what I'll do but if he doesn't.... then I'm staying with my Aunt."

"I understand."

I give him a quick hug then I talk to Nash and we straighten everything out.

"Is any family here for Taylor?" The nurse asks.

"I'm his sister and she's his Aunt." I explain. My heart was going thirty thousand miles a minute, no a second.

"Two at a time can see him. I suggest you say your goodbyes." The nurse says with a sad tone. Tears fall down my face.

"You go ahead. I want to go last." I explain.

Nash and Cameron go in first. It took them about twenty minutes, they both came out with tears in their eyes. Nash sat next to me while my Aunt on the other side. I give him a faint smile and he just puts his head down.

"Hayes, you can go." I tell him, he nods and goes in. He takes about fifteen minutes, then my Aunt and I go in. He looked so bad. Bandages everywhere and his arm was broken so it was propped up. My Aunt stands next to him and says her goodbyes. I sort of wander off into space until my Aunt takes my hand and tells me it was my turn. She leaves and I look at my broken brother.

"Hey Taylor, it's funny last time I was there and you were apologizing."

Now tears were free falling.

"I wanted to say thank you for raising me and teaching me right from wrong. You taught me so well. I didn't put the drugs in there and I promise I will never smoke again.

It is going to be so hard with out you, I understand if you want to go. I can last by myself. I know where you will go and I know that you will be watching me.

Goodbye, and don't have to much fun in heaven without me. I'll see you eventually."
I kiss him ever so lightly on the cheek hoping that it would magically bring him back.

This wasn't a fairy tail. This is real life and my brother is going to die.

Somehow I am ok with it. I don't know why I just am.
I sat down for another second.

Then the monitors started beeping and everything was in slow motion.

Nurses running in and machines being hooked up. I just see him laying there defenseless. I knew what was happening. He was waiting for me to say goodbye and then he could go.

I was on my knees and then his heart collapsed. I stood up and waved goodbye.
My Aunt, Nash, Cam, and Hayes were all outside wondering what had happened. I go out and just say.

"He's gone." My Aunt starts crying hysterically and Cam hugs me. Nash hugs his brother.

Taylor was gone.

He waited for me to say goodbye.

Then he left.

A/N
Oh boy!!! I cried when writing this! Yes, Taylor is dead and yes, the book is NOT done.
