On the way in Eddy found himself saying in a whispered prayer, "please let him be awake and off of those machines this time." Before entering Double D's mother stopped them, "Now remember this is still our Eddward." They nodded. As they entered the room they saw him lying there, under that same oxygen mask with all the tubes and ivs. The approached the bed and peered over into his sleeping face,
he hadn't woken up since that day just one week ago. "I'll leave you three alone call me when you are ready to go" She said walking into the hall. "hey Sockhead, how's it goin' we that is me and Ed, miss ya and just hope you snap out of this soon," the two boys stayed for hours trying to bring the third out of it.
Just as visiting hours ended and the boys turned to leave they heard the familiar voice calling to them, "E-Eddy, E-Ed," Double D had taken of the mask and was now looking at them smiling weakly.
Eddy's mouth formed a smile but his eyes showed his surprise. He and Ed ran back to Double D's bedside as he tried to sit up, Eddy placed a hand on him gentle "lay still sockhead, please, how're ya feelin"
Double D sighed he still hurt quite a bit in his chest.
"It still hurts quite a bit Eddy but thanks to you, Ed, and Mother,I'm sure I'll be fine"
"Glad to hear it Sockhead" " where is Mother anyway?" " just out in the hall here I'll get her" Having said this Eddy disappeared into the hall, leaving Ed and Double D alone.
With Eddy gone Double D sat up again and called Ed over closer to his bed. "Ed, you saved my life, it was brave of you to get mother, and bringing those clean towels was very well done Ed I'm proud of you and Eddy both,"he reached his arms out to the boy and gave him a hug. "thank you Ed" Ed smiled for once he had helped his friend. when Eddy came back with Double D's mother she rushed into the room and over to her son.
"Eddward i-if I had known I never would have- Oh I'm so happy you're back with us sweety.
She sobbed "Mother, it's ok really." there it was thought Eddy, the ever present giggle in Double D's voice.
The boys and DD's mother stayed until the nurse had come in to kick them out.
Before leaving, Eddy turned back to his friend who now lay in bed smiling. "See ya Sockhead" as he turned back to the door he heard a voice call "see you soon Eddy, maybe even sooner then you think.
