"rise and shine buddy!"Kyle yelled opening the windows of his room,
Lucas slowly opened his eyes quickly closing them, "it's morning?" he asked his voice hoarse "isn't it beautiful?" Kyle asked he had always been a morning person "uh yeah it's so beautiful"
He slowly tried to get out of bed but winced as he could still feel the pain from his ankle "the baths ready!"Kyle said cheerfully! "aren't you in a good mood today?" Lucas asked as he limped out of bed, Kyle ignored the comments, before worriedly glancing him up and down, "you sure you can do it on your own?"
"I'm not five you know?" Lucas said as he motioned for Kyle to leave, "don't do anything stupid"lucas said Kyle rolled his eyes.
Lucas's pov
I did something stupid!
"you are never going into the bathroom alone!" Andrea yelled pacing to and fro like its his job.
"I'm not five!" I yelled out frustrated this argument had Benn going on for an hour now and I was honestly tired!
"oh really?" Mike said averting his gaze from the newspaper to me,"you sure show it a lot, I mean what five year old gets lost in thought in a bathroom, almost drowns in the water and literally slipped,?what five year old does that?" he asked sarcastically
"that's not what happened and in. My defence the floor was slippery and I have a sprained ankle what did you expect, jeez do the math!" I said rolling my eyes.
"I can't believe you!" Andres yelled "then don't!" I yelled back.
"we were worried sick about you, you were unconscious for almost twenty minutes you gave us a scare"
"you guys were just being paranoid, look I'm fine,now can you please leave so I can get dressed"
"whoa,whoa,whoa,slow down there buddy,do you really think we're gonna leave you all alone again"
I rolled my eyes getting frustrated. "how. Many. Times.do. I .have. to. tell .you. that .I'm. not Five!" I stood up took quickly and let out a regrettably loud yelp bit before I could fall, Michael caught me, how original
"I'll help you get dressed"brian finally spoke, he was always the reserved one so this gesture shocked me, "no thanks" I said looking away, I didn't want to be mean, but thing were just happening so fast, I had overslept for two nights and missed my morning exercise and gym, oh gym!
"we're going shopping, he's helping you get dressed, end of discussion" Mike said walking away. I rolled my eyes

Third person POV
"everyone got what they need?" Andres asked as they headed out of the car, "yeah" Brian said as he walked ahead of everyone towards the car, Andres and Michael walked by, both sides of Lucas while Kyle trailed behind.
Soon they arrived at the super, Brian going solo, Kyle deciding he wanted to look around and Michael carrying out grocery shopping.
Lucas stayed put, discreetly following Andres like a small chick to a mother hen, confused as to what to do as he rarely went shopping, more like he never had time.
"bub, what's up?you don't wanna get anything?" Andres asked as he dropped a gallon of milk into the shopping cart, "uh-huh" he replied looking away, "nonsense,c'mon let's get you something Eh?" he asked as they walked over to the clothing section, Lucas trying on different shirts and trousers in the dressing area, some fit, while some, well didn't he had lost a lot of weight, so his size was kind of smaller, in the end they had gotten some trousers and shirts as well as a particular sneaker Lucas liked.
Lucas was hoping fun, till he suddenly felt pressed and an uncontrollably need to use the toilet, he shifted from one foot to the other, unsure of how to tell Andy he needed to leave, as Andy well, Andy had a pile of more clothes for him to put on,
"check this one out, it's cool" Andy said referring to a grey shirt with a nice pattern on it.
"yeah.." he replied the discomfort becoming hard to bear, "uh.. Andy.. I.i'll be right back" he ran out of the dressing room in desperate need of a toilet, after asking for directions he finally reached the toilet but it was too late, Lucas watched in horror, how his jeans got soaked the wet path on his blue jeans as visible as day, he couldn't explain what he felt, whether it was frustration at the situation or anger at himself, he brought out his loyal friend the blade contemplating whether or not he should cut, he decided on making two slightly but not too obvious cuts
"hey, buddy are you in there?" an awfully familiar voice asked.
Oh no!
