Kyle's mom dropped us off at the hospital just like she said she would. "If you guys need anything, please don't hesitate to call me."

"Okay mom." Kyle tells her. We get out the car and she drives off. I look at Kyle, then I look down. "Is something wrong Kenny?"

"I just want to apologize for last night I-"

"It's cool dude, you don't have to apologize. I completely understand." How can he be so understanding? I acted like such a cry baby last night.

"It's really not cool. I was such a jerk last night. I hope I didn't get you into any trouble. I mean I was crying half the night and I peed in your bed. I'm so fucking embarrassed."

"You weren't a jerk, you just have a lot going on in your life right now. That kind of behavior is expected. Don't be embarrassed, it's cool. Now let's go so we can see your brother." He pushes me eagerly towards the entrance. As soon as we get off the elevator, I notice Stan sitting in the waiting room. What is he doing here? "Stan!" I hear Kyle call out. He rushes over to him. I stay by the elevator. I know Stan still hates me. Kyle and Stan shake hands. I notice Stan says something to Kyle. Kyle looks over at me and gestures for me to come over. I shake my head. "Dude come on!" He calls out. I slowly make my way over there.

"Hey Stan." I say quietly as I look down.

"Hi." I notice he looks down as well. There's a few moments of awkward silence. Kyle decides to step in and break the silence by clearing his throat.

"So…I set this meeting up." He tells me.

"What?" I ask. Why would he do that?

"I think it's way past time that you two talk this out."

I agree, but I don't want to tell Stan what's going on. "There's nothing for us to talk about Kyle."

"Don't give me that bullshit Kenny. It's obvious that the two of you miss each other, so now you two have the opportunity to talk it out. Kenny, you know damn well you have a lot to tell Stan so go ahead and tell him."

"I have to go see my mom and brother so I-" I try to walk away, but Kyle stops me.

"You'll have plenty of time to see them later. Talk to Stan first." He looks me in the eye. "Tell him everything…and I mean EVERYTHING!" Wow, he's really determined for this to come out.

"Kenny, if there's something you need to say to me, then go ahead and spit it out." Stan tells me impatiently. "I really don't have all day."

"I-I don't have anything to say. Sorry to waste your time." I turn to walk away, I hear Kyle telling Stan to wait a minute as he follows behind me. He jumps out in front of me stopping me dead in my tracks.

"What are you doing? Don't you want to get back with Stan?"

I start to cry. "I do, I just can't do this. I can't tell him about Craig."

"Why not?"

"Because I'm scared. If Craig finds out that I told, he'll kill me."
