I gritted my teeth when I saw that Beckett was still sitting there.

I released Waylin's hand and pulled Beckett up from the chair and across the hall.

"What do you want?" I asked harshly, trying not to raise my voice.

"Nothing, I just thought you might need somewhere to stay. You said that you didn't have any relatives in the area, and I figured you and Waylin could stay at my house. My parents wouldn't mind."

I rolled my eyes and took a deep breath to compose myself.

"What makes you think I would want to stay with you? Huh?" I asked.

He didn't flinch at my words, but looked sadly down at me.

"Please, just put the past aside and do what's right for Waylin."

"Don't you dare tell me what is best for Waylin! I've been taking care of him pretty damn well his whole life. You have no right to assume otherwise about my decisions."

He put up his hands in surrender and sighed.

"Look, I don't know why your mom is in the ICU, I don't know anything, okay? I just know that you're going to need somewhere to stay where there are actual adults because you aren't his guardian, and I don't see any social workers around. So, what? You told them you had a family member coming to get you, right?"

I rolled my eyes and he continued.

"Right. So, what are you going to do when they send social services to your house?"
