Chapter 11
Nate and Caitlyn sat quietly together on Caitlyn's bed talking when there was a knock at the door. They both looked up to see a woman stick her head around the door. Nate looked at her wondering who she was, she must know them because Big Rob let her through, but he suddenly saw it, she was the image of Caitlyn only older. She must have been her Mother.
"Hey Mom" Caitlyn said getting up off her bed and taking her bags from her Mom. Nate smiled at her and stood up. He pulled his IV pole with him over to her.
"Mom, this is Nate. He's the one having my kidney" Caitlyn said gesturing to him. He smiled and stretched out his hand to shake with hers.
"Nice to meet you Mrs Gellar. I'm Nate as Caitlyn said" he said nicely earning a smile from Caitlyn's Mom.
She shook his hand firmly and smiled at him. "I'm Amanda. It's lovely to meet you too, I'm very sorry about what you're going through." she said softly not knowing if it was a bad subject to bring up.
Nate shrugged. "It's okay, I'm just very grateful that Caity is here to help me get better. She's truly a life savour" he explained letting go of her hand and putting his hand on Caitlyn shoulder. Caitlyn blushed and smiled at her Mom.
Amanda smiled at their little interaction. As Nate took his hand off Caitlyn and worked his way back to his bed wit his IV pole, she gave Caitlyn a little knowing look. Caitlyn shook her head and took her bags over to her bed and started taking things out.
"My Mom's coming in a bit, I told her to go home last night and get a good night's sleep, she's been extremely worried about me." Nate explained getting himself comfortable in his bed again.
Amanda nodded in understanding. "Has the doctor been in yet at all?" she asked directed at both the teens but Caitlyn stayed quiet allowing Nate to interact with her Mom.
He shook his head. "Not yet, but he should be coming in soon, he has the results of our blood tests in today. He said he'd come explain them and what going to happen from then on."
Amanda nodded and sat down on one of the chairs in the room. She looked around noticing that it was very posh and had very luxury things in there. She looked to her left and saw an on suite bathroom.
"Wow, this is a nice room" she said looking around. Caitlyn laughed.
"Nate's a rock star Mom, that's why he has a body guard at the door and such an awesome room, which now I have stolen half of" she explained causing Nate to laugh and look down at his hands.
Amanda's eye brows rose. "Wow, I thought that guy was a bit too big. That explains it now."
Nate smiled and looked at Caitlyn's Mom. "That's Big Rob for you, he's really nice though, he's not as tough as he looks"
Amanda smiled at Nate. "What band are you in then, I've noticed you somewhere before, but I can't put my finger on it"
Nate smiled. "Connect Three" Suddenly a light bulb in Amanda's head clicked.
"Oh yes! I remember now, you guys are very big. I went to the shops one day when your album came out, the queue at the checkout was about an hour long, millions of girls were buying about five of your CD" she said, Nate smiled.
"That's the fans for you. They have been so supportive of us, but I want you to know I'm not one of them jerky rock star types. I really appreciate the opportunities I have been given." Nate said truthfully.
Caitlyn smiled and looked at her Mom and Nate talking, they were getting on well. Nate caught her eye and she looked at him. He smiled and winked without her Mom catching it. Caitlyn blushed and looked back down at her bag.
They all talked for a little while longer. Nate taking most of the conversation trying to get to know Amanda and telling her little things about himself and his family.
The door opened once again, Shane and Mitchie entered holding hands. They were smiling widely laughing at something that had just happened. They stopped once they realised someone else was in the room with them other than Nate and Caitlyn.
Mitchie let go of Shane's hand and smiled warmly at the woman. Shane smiled too. He looked to Caitlyn for a explanation of who she was.
"Hey guys, this is my Mom, Amanda" Caitlyn said placing her empty bag under her bed and smoothing out her bed.
"Hey, I'm Shane Grey. Nate's brother. It's nice to meet you" Shane said walking over and shaking her hand. She smiled and shook his hand too.
"Hey I'm Mitchie. Shane's boyfriend and Nate's pretend sister" she joked making Nate and Amanda laugh.
"I'm sure you'll be my real sister one day Mitch." Nate said causing Mitchie to blush a million shades of red.
Shane took a seat on one of the chairs and started up a conversation with Caitlyn's Mom, while Mitchie went and sat next to Caitlyn on the bed.
"Your Mom seems to like us." She smiled as Caitlyn laughed gently. They sat next to each other leaning on the head board.
"I really hope you come on the tour with us. I really want you to come, you're really great to get along with and I haven't had a proper friend who's a girl in a long time" Mitchie said looking down at her hands realising how lame that sounded.
Caitlyn smiled. "I want to come as well. It sounds really fun. Plus, you are really great to get along with as well." She said, Mitchie looked up and grinned happily at her comment.
"I really like you Caitlyn. Once you get out of here we can have a girly day and do lots of fun stuff" Mitchie said causing Caitlyn to smile.
"I haven't done anything like that in a long time." Caitlyn said hugging Mitchie's side. "I can't wait"
Mitchie smiled and hugged her back. "Me either, I just got some new hot pink nail varnish that I think will go awesome with your skin tone!"
Caitlyn giggled and soon Mitchie joined in. Shane looked over to them wondering what's going on. Amanda looked over as well wondering how on earth her daughter could be so close to these people after only knowing them a couple of days. But, if Caitlyn was happy, so was she.
Shane smiled watching his girl friend laugh with Caitlyn, he was happy that she and Caitlyn were getting on well. She needed a friend who was a girl in her life to do things with. Like shop, gossip and the things he couldn't do with her. He was happy that she found someone like herself.
Nate laughed at something Amanda said when he saw the door open again. He saw his Mom, Dad, Jason and Frankie enter.
"Hey guys!" he said loud enough for them to hear him.
"Hey dude. You having a party in here?" Jason joked noticing all the people in the room. Nate laughed and shook his head.
"This is Amanda, Caitlyn's Mom." he said gesturing to the woman sitting in the chair.
"Amanda, this is my Mom Denise. My Father Kevin, My youngest brother Frankie and my oldest brother and band mate, Jason" Nate explained pointing out each one.
"It's lovely to meet you" Amanda said shaking everyone's hands. Frankie smiled widely at her quite confused at what was happening.
Amanda and Denise soon got engaged in a conversation. Jason took a seat next to Shane as did Kevin. Frankie walked over to Nate's bed and climbed onto it. Nate smiled at him and sat him next to him.
They all talked for a long time, Amanda got on really well with all of them. She laughed at all the jokes and asked about life on the road for them as a band. They took the opportunity to tell all the amazing great things about life on the road. She smiled and said it sounded like a really great experience.
After about twenty minutes of talking the doctor and a nurse entered the room. They smiled at all of them, the nurse walked over to Nate's IV pole and put in some medicines that entered Nate's body slowly.
"These may make you feel a bit sick but it's helping you. Do you want to do your blood sugar or should I do it?" she asked Nate as everyone fell quiet waiting for the doctor to speak up about the results.
"I'll do it thanks Marie" Nate said picking up his packet and opening it. He took out all the equipment and began his testing. Caitlyn and Amanda watched him do it as they had never seen it being done before. Frankie just climbed off the best leaving Nate to have some space, the rest of his family talked to each other quietly.
Caitlyn flinched as Nate pricked his finger. He checked his blood sugars and nodded. "Everything's good." he said to the nurse who nodded and left the room. Nate pulled up his shirt and checked the omnipod attached to his body and placed his shirt back down. He looked up to see the doctor filling out his progress forms and checking all the machines around him. He looked over at Caitlyn who smiled at him and turned back to talk to Mitchie quietly.
The doctor placed the folder back at the end of Nate's bed and cleared his throat. "Well everything seems to be of the normal Nate which you will be glad to know." Nate smiled and nodded.
The doctor flipped open the folder he brought in the room with him. "I have the results here from Caitlyn's and Nate's blood tests." he said looking around the room at all the faces looking back at him, he came across Caitlyn Mom and smiled.
"I'm sorry, you must be Caitlyn's Mom, I'm sorry for not introducing myself, I'm Doctor (A/N: LOL I forgot his surname! Sorry!) I have been monitoring Nate's progress and I will be doing their operations. I have done this surgery many times so there is nothing to worry about." he explained. Caitlyn Mom nodded.
"Well all the results you'll be glad to know came back as what we thought so the operation can be done tomorrow. Then Nate and Caitlyn can have a speedy recovery and get back on their feet in no time, the recovery time is about two weeks, then rest when out of the hospital until about week six or so, you can do light exercise. So Nate no running around the stage once you get out okay?" the doctor said laughing.
Nate laughed and nodded. "Yes Doc, no running around until I can, but that probably won't stop me"
The doctor shook his head and looked down at his paper again. "Any questions?" he asked looking around.
No one said anything.
"Good, I'll be back later Nate and Caitlyn and I'll go through some procedures and details about the operation later, but for now rest and well whatever you want to do, maybe walk around because you probably won't be doing that for a while." the doctor said earning a nod from both the teens. He smiled one last time and left the room.
"Well I got one last night with this kidney, I'm gunna miss you buddy" Caitlyn said causing everyone to laugh loudly.
