I'm back! Sorry I haven't been uploading lately. I have been on vacation without wifi :| and I have been losing inspiration, but I'm back and I have a plan to get more inspiration, because I was thinking off putting more people in. I tell again at the end and who I was thinking off. Here comes the chapter:
- Chapter 14 - Sleep Well Ross -
"We what?" Stormie asked. She looked at Riker who was looking down himself to avoid his mother's look and question. Riker kept quiet not knowing what he should tell them and he shouldn't tell them. Ross was standing there too so he can hear everything he tells the rest of their family and to Seth and Benny who also still stood there. They also didn't know what to do or say.
Riker knew he couldn't avoid this question forever so he just answered. "I didn't say anything for some reasons." He said. "You know. Just tell us the most important reason to why you kept it from us." Rocky said receiving a slap on the back off his head from Rydel telling him to keep out of their mom and Riker's conversation.
"Tell us those reasons." Their mom said sort of ignoring what Rocky had said and Rydel had done. "Well. First one is that I didn't want to tell you. I didn't want to do anything without Ross' permission." Riker said looking up carefully to look at Ross. "That's sort off understandable." Stormie said.
Before Riker or anyone else could say something, Mark spoke up. "I have another question for you." He said. "Speak up." Riker said. He wanted this interrogation to be over. "What was he talking about?" Mark asked while he thought he knew the answer, but it could be something completely else. "And who do you mean with he?" Riker asked trying to avoid that question as long as possible. He knew exactly who his dad was talking about. About Ethan. "That boy that walked away as the only one" Mark said not being sure about knowing his name.
"That boy is called Ethan. To make it simpler for you." Seth said out of nowhere. "Does anyone off you know about what that Ethan kid was talking about?" Stormie asked. All three off them shook their head. Ross still stood there behind with no facial expression. Just thinking off nothing. Staring into space. No one really paid attention to him. While that was kind of weird seen as though he was the main thing they were talking about.
"You really don't? Because I have some feelings that you do." Rocky said receiving another slap on his head from Rydel. "If you are going to slap harder every time I am going to end up with a head concussion." Rocky said to Rydel. She just let out a laugh as he said that. Rocky gave her a glare and she gave him a wide smile back. Brother and sister love is great!
"No, we don't. How can we know if he doesn't want to tell us?" Riker said sarcastically to Rocky. Rocky was a bit taken back by Riker, but not enough to keep him quiet. "You should've known if he says you know." Riker snapped his head up to look at Rocky after what he had said to him. "Are you freaking kidding me?" Was all Riker could say. He wanted to say more, but Ryland became between the three. "Shut up. All off you." Ryland said just a little louder than talking and softer than yelling. At least it was enough to keep them all silent, because they did kept quiet.
"What now?" Riker asked after a while breaking the long silence that felt like the longest until now. "I don't know." Rocky said. "Let's start wi.." Rydel was cut off by Rocky. "Start with what?" He asked impatiently. Rydel glared at him. "If you just let me talk! You would've known it already." Rydel said raising her voice a bit. "Then talk now!" Rocky said also raising his voice.
"Yes, just shut up!" Rydel said with the same voice. "Fi.." Rocky wanted to finish his word, but Rydel decided to speak without letting Rocky interrupting her again. She knows how much he likes it to interrupt people while they try to say, ask or mention something.
"What I wanted to say, or actually ask is. Who are you?" She asked while she pointed at Seth and Benny.
"I.. am Seth and this is Benny." Seth told them. "Yeah. We already met at the hospital." Benny said which caused Seth to give him a what-are-you-talking-about look. Benny gave him a tell-you-later look. "Okay. That explains a lot." Rydel said. "What does it explain?" Riker asked with a little break between what and does because off him being confused. "It explains nothing idiot." Rydel said. Ryland shut them both up and looked questioned at Seth and Benny for more explanation.
"We are friends with Ross and Ethan. More with Ethan." Benny explained, though he wanted to say more with Ross, but he knows that that is a lie. And before hell broke loose with Ross he decided to tell it this way. He looked over at Ross and found him staring at the ground behind everyone. God knows what's going through him right now. And no one seemed to notice him. Ethan didn't dare to look at Ross and his family all had their backs to Ross.
"And what is going on?" Rocky asked. "Well. It's hard to explain." Ethan said. Benny was thinking for an answer and before he could answer he found out that Ethan already had answered. Riker already knew that they were the ones that had done it to him and it started to click in their dads head bit by bit. Though Ethan and Benny still thought that only Ross knew it was them and that he hadn't told Riker.
"try us." Mark said. Now he wanted to know if the feeling he had was the truth. "I think that it's better if we go. At least my mom will kill me if I don't come home in time. And that is in.." He stopped talking to look at the time on his phone screen and he noticed that he had to be home in nine minutes. "shit. That's in nine minutes." He said before running off to go home. He was going to be late anyway, but better a minute than more late just because he walked home. He also called his mom that he was on his way home and that he was a little late. A few minutes or so. His mom appreciated it that he had called and she said it would be fine.
"That leaves me from the three." Ethan said letting out a little laugh. Boy was he going to regret that he stayed. The next thing he saw was Ross falling to the ground. Well, if it wasn't for Rocky standing close to him, he would have hit the ground harshly. Rocky managed to catch Ross, but he still ended up on the ground.
*A little while earlier*
Ross listened to everything they were saying. No one had his attention to him. While everything was about him. He didn't want everything to be about him, though he knew he had no chance off changing the subject. "Yeah. We already met at the hospital." He heard someone say. Probably Benny. Man he hated that word. Hospital. With the cancer and painful needles. Ugh. That was when it happened. He heard the voices becoming softer.
His vision started to turn and turn. He was becoming dizzy because off that. Eventually his vision became really blurry to the point off only seeing black. Than back to blurry. And then black again. Blurry. Black. Blurry. Black. And not because off the blinking like every person does. It freaked him out on the inside, but not enough to actually tell anyone about it.
Like he could tell them, because when he wanted to tell them. The words and sound wouldn't form. He became really miserable and dizzy. The last thing he heard was "That leaves me from the three." He didn't know if it was Benny or Seth, but he didn't really care, because the next minute everything fell out. And literally everything.
Rocky cared enough to share Ross a look when he noticed Ross wasn't okay. He kept an eye on him while moving on with the conversation, because it looked more like Ross was bored and wanted to go on. And just when Ross was about to fell to the ground Rocky sort off jumped over to him and he made Ross go to the ground slower and took care that he didn't hit the ground that hard.
Their mom almost had a heart attack when she heard the commotion behind her. When she turned she put her hand for her mouth letting out a little cry when she saw Ross on the ground with closed eyes and Rocky next to him. "What happened?" Riker was the only one that could actually talk from them. "I don't know. One minute he stood and the next he was going to the ground." Rocky tried to explain. It went to fast to get grip on it. Even for him.
"How is he?" Mark asked. "I uh.. Don't know." Rocky said. He laid his hand on Ross' wrist to find a pulse. No luck. He started to freak out on the inside and moved his hand to Ross' throat. He also held his head above Ross' nose. In his neck he felt a pulse. Luckily, but it wasn't a strong one. It really wasn't. He also felt a little air blowing into his ear. He was also breathing, but short and soft. He needs help. As fast as possible. "Call an ambulance. Now." Rocky said a little mad hopefully they would react faster than when he would say it normally.
He was to busy with Ross that he didn't know that other people and Ryland himself already had called and that help would be there in like.. four minutes. The ambulance came and took Ross to the hospital. Mark went with the ambulance and the others should come too, with the car.
In the ambulance they attached Ross to a breathing machine that would make breathing easier for him. They also attached a heart monitor so they could see how bad it actually was. None off the man in the back said something.
Mark just stared at his son. Hoping that he would be okay and survive the cancer at one point so he can be happy and himself again, because lately Ross is not himself. He could say at all, but that would be mean.
The others went home to get the car and they went to the hospital. Waiting in the waiting room...
Thank you so much for reading. And to come back on what I said in the beginning. I am thinking on putting in The Vamps and/or 5 Seconds Of Summer. Please tell me who. And you can even tell me to put in a few like 2 from each bands or one from one band and two from the other band. Just an example. Please tell me and please tell me what you think about the chapter. I promise I won't wait that long again with updates.
6+ or more reviews for the next chapter.
