Kate's POV

I was sitting in the living room with Lily. It was just after 7:00pm, and we were needlessly watching some comedy on the TV. We tried to enjoy the show. The guy slipped on a banana peel, fell off the stage and into a woman's… area, but we can't laugh. We had too much in our heads. I don't know what Lily's thinking about. But I know one thing; she is just as worried as me. I know she doesn't really talk to Humphrey that much, but he is still Angel's brother.

Poor Angel. I can't even imagine what she's going through right now. Humphrey has been everything to her; a babysitter, care giver, big brother, and a male nurse. I chuckled at that ever so slightly because that sounds exactly like something he would say. All in all, he was basically a father to Angel. And a friend. She always idolised Humphrey, unlike most girls who idolise boy bands. She always put Humphrey first before anyone, or anything.

Lily got a notification on her phone. She was paying any attention and didn't pick it up. I have a little OCD when it comes to things like this though. I have to answer a text the second I get it. "Aren't you going to answer it?" I asked. "Not in the mood to text" she replied. "Can I look?" I asked gingerly; Lily is a little peculiar with her phone. "I don't care" she pouted. I picked up her phone and unlocked it to reveal the message. When I saw the message, my eyes widened and I gasped in shock

"Lily, you're not going 2 believe what just happened. Humphrey gripped my hand" the text read. "What is it?" Lily asked curiously. I showed her the text and she had the exact same reaction as me. "Reply back" Lily said. I unlocked her phone and went into the messaging app. "Did he wake up?" I replied. It took a few seconds for the reply to come through. "I didn't see anything, but Hutch said that his eyes were open for a split second" the text read

I remember Hutch messaged me on Facebook an hour ago saying that his mother was taking him up to the hospital to see Humphrey for a while. I wished I just went with him. Plus, I need to collect my sweater. "Well?" Lily asked me. Angel said that even though she didn't see it, Hutch said that his eyes were open for a second" I explained. "So Humphrey technically woke up?" Lily quizzed. "Yeah" said. I was actually feeling slightly happy. Humphrey was awake. Does this mean he is going to be okay?

I didn't have time to ask anyone that because Lily jumped from the sofa and ran out of the living room. I heard the kitchen door burst open. "Mum! Dad! Guess what?!" I heard Lily shout. "Humphrey gripped Angel's hand, and they think he was awake for a few seconds" I heard Lily shout. I was chuffed at Lily's excitement. But I have to admit, I did feel a slight relief knowing that Humphrey's condition is improving. Even if it is just little by little. I just wish I was there for the moment

My thoughts were interrupted by another notification on Lily's from Angel. "By the way Lily, don't tell Kate about this. I want to sort of surprise her with this turn of events. And tell her I'm bringing her I'm bringing her sweater. Please? I think it would brighten her birthday?" I took a second to think. "Sure" I replied. I decided to have a look at Lily's phone. I barely ever get the chance to look through it, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity. I opened her photo album, and I came across something strange. Her album was pass locked. Only person who could crack it would be Humphrey. If only he was here. Still, I would like to know what she's hiding behind this pass lock.

I walked into the kitchen and I saw Lily, dad and mum situated around the kitchen table. "Isn't it good news?" mum said to me. "Yeah" I said. "But guys the thing is, Angel said she's coming round to see us later. And she asked you Lily not to tell me because she wanted to tell me as a surprise" I said. "Oh that's alright" mum said. "We'll act like we know nothing" dad added. "Good" I said. Lily then then got up and walked over to me to retrieve her phone. "Lily why did you lock your photo album? I whispered in her eye. She sharply took the out of my hand and gripped it towards her chest. "None of your business" she scolded silently. What is she hiding?

I went back into the living room and Lily went up the stairs to retreat to her room. This time I was actually enjoying the comedy that was on the TV. I for some reason felt a little better. Around 8pm dad came into the living room. "Kate I'm going shopping for groceries. Want anything?" he asked. "No I'm good dad thanks" I responded. Then he was away. I knew it wasn't long before Angel would be at the door, I bet she's itching to tell me the news.

I then heard a knock at the door. "I'll get it!" I shouted, to let mum and Lily know that Angel was here. I opened the door, and there she was. She turned around to wave at somebody in a car parked at the edge of the drive. A closer look revealed that it was Hutch and his mother. They drove off just as soon as Angel waved to them, beeping their horn as they went. "Hey Kate" Angel greeted. "Hey Angel" I replied. I stepped back, and Angel walked into the house just after wiping her feet

"Hi honey" I heard my mum say as she walked up to Angel. Mum held her arms out wide and embraced Angel. Angel gladly returned it. "How is he?" mum asked. "That's the thing" she said sounding gloom. "Can I speak with you in private" she said throwing my sweater on the rack near the door. Mum walked her into the living room, with me close behind. I heard Lily come thumping down the stairs so clearly she wanted in on this. Once we all sat in our desired seats, mum and I on either side of Angel and Lily jumping on the arm chair. Angel then cleared her throat.

"What's wrong pet" mum said patting her shoulder. "Well I thought I would come over and give you the news" she said giving a look over to Lily. "What is it Angel?" I asked. "When I was sitting with Humphrey today and I was holding on to Humphreys hand and then…" she paused. Trying to get us to sound worried. "Then what?" I asked playing along. "… He gripped my hand". The three of us acting in fake shock, although you wouldn't have noticed. I think we act pretty well

"And Hutch said that his eyes were open for a split second" she added with an ever so slight smile appearing. "What does this mean?" mum asked. "The doctors told us that it's good news. It basically proves that Humphrey is going to be okay" she added. The second she said that, made me feel even more relieved. Now that I now that even the doctor said that Humphrey would be okay, and actually hearing those words from Angel is a lot better than reading them on a screen

"That's great news pet" mum said. I saw tears forming in her eyes. That either meant she was a really good liar or those are just tears of happiness. She stood up and brought Angel up to her in a hug. Lily and I got up and we took turns embracing Humphrey's sister. "I'm getting ice pops to celebrate" Lily said running out of the living room. Angel, mum and I just looked at each other. "Only Lily" I said. I walked out of the living room and stood in the doorframe of the kitchen. "Lily can you get me a raspberry one please?" I asked. "Those are the only ones we have anyway. Thanks to you" Lily scoffed. I smiled and walked back to the living room

The open door allowed me to see in the living room, and what saw surprised me to say the least. Mum and Angel were sitting down on the sofa, and my mum had her arm wrapped around. "Remember pet, we're always here for you. Winston, Lily, Kate, and me. We've always considered you part of our family in a way, and we'll treat you like it" mum said. "Thanks Mrs Smith" Angel said. "Honey. Call me Eve for crying out loud. "

I decided it was time to walk in. "Raspberry ok for you Angel?" I asked. "Yeah that's fine. I really like raspberry" she responded. "You and me both" I said. "How can you girls like raspberry better than strawberry. You're mad in the head" mum said. "It's because of her. She got me into raspberry" Angel said pointing to me. "Why did you taint this poor girl Kate?" mum sarcastically accused. Lily walked in carrying the ice pops. "I think I hear my phone ringing" mum said getting up

"Speaking of phones. Did you know that Lily has a pass lock on her photo album" I said to Angel. She shot a look to lily for a quick moment, and returned to her ice pop. "So? She can do what she wants" Angel said. She unwrapped her ice pop and stared at it. "I want this cold, dripping piece of dairy in my mouth" she said, getting a chuckle from Lily and I. Luckily mum didn't hear it as she came back in. "What's so funny?" she asked. "Nothing" the three of us replied unanimously

Angel was with us for another 20 minutes. All exchanging stories about our live, well mum, Lily and I were. We were telling stories about each other, and the dumb things that we've all done and Angel was just sitting there, laughing it all in. "So what about you Angel? What can you tell us?" Lily asked. "I don't know. Who do you want me to talk about?" she asked, although I'm pretty sure she knew who she wanted to talk about

"Tell us about Humphrey?" Lily pushed. I thought it was a little weird, given Humphreys situation now. "Like what?" Angel asked. "What he's really like" Lily answered. "Well there's not much to tell about him that you guys don't already know. But if I have to think, I would say he is probably the most embarrassing, quirkiest, and sweetest guy ever. He is just a big lovable nerd. He tells the corniest jokes, watches the oddest shows, and doesn't care much about what others say. He is so generous and he's such a good listener. I always know he'd never turn his back on me; even when we are at each other's throats, which believe me is a lot. I love that crazy guy! He's a great big brother and I couldn't ask for any better"

"He is such a silly person. He always knows how to make me smile when i have a rough day. I remember he used to tickle me to the point where I would cry, and most nights tuck me in to bed, telling me one of his weird made up stories. What I love most about him though is that he does hang out with his friends, but he also hangs out with me" Angel said. "If he's ever in a bad mood I would go and get him some ice cream and tell him to shut up" she said, which got a little giggle arising. "What would be your favourite memory of him?" mum asked out of the blue

"There is one thing I remember; it was when Humphrey borrowed dad's iPod. Dad only really let him borrow it after mum ordered him to". That last line got a chuckle from my mother. "Humphrey promised to be careful. So he had it. But I wanted to use it for the run so I can listen to music during PE, and he just let me use, being the nice big bro that he is. All he did was advise me to be careful with it. But when we were prepping for the run, the iPod fell out of my pocket and the screen cracked on it." The three of us gasped. "And when I showed Humphrey, he was like 'dad is not going to be happy about this'. I remember I started to cry and he said he would be beside me through the whole thing"

"Well when we got back to the house, Humphrey showed dad the iPod. Dad was furious to say the least. He demanded to know what happened. Just before I burst into tears Humphrey said; 'I dropped it in the hallway'" Angel said. "What did your dad do?" Lily asked. "He literally screamed at Humphrey. Saying all sorts of words that I shall not repeat" Angel said. "And then he sent him to his room. He was still angry about the whole thing even after Humphrey left" she said.

"And I went up to see him in his room around ten minutes later. Long story short, I thanked for taking the heat. And he said 'what are big brothers for' and hugged me" Angel finished. "I can't believe he took the blame for you. Kate won't even let me off when I take a cookie from the jar" Lily said. We talked for another hour, dad coming home in the process and hanging out by himself in the kitchen. We continued to talk throughout the hour. Not one of us mentioned Humphrey's condition, but I know that we were all thinking about it

Mum retreated to the kitchen to dad which left us girls alone for a while. "Whoa, look at the time. I think it's time I head home guys" Angel said looking at her silver watch. "Do you want to see if mum can run you home?" Lily asked. "No thanks. I'll ring Matthew and see what he's at" Angel said. Lily went out of the room, presumably to ask mum the question. "I gotta go to the bathroom. I'll be right back" I said. "Just go before you shit yourself" Angel said. "Actually I only have to pee" I retorted. "Okay. Then go before you piss yourself". I went on the bathroom and did my thing

When I was walking back to the living room, I heard a sound. The sound was like something being slammed into the sofa. I curiously skipped forward to see what the commotion was about. I saw Angel in the living room holding her head in her hands and her phone was lying beside her face down on the sofa. At least now I know what caused the noise. "What's wrong Angel?" I asked. "Nothing" she replied sniffling. I sat beside and put my hand on her back. "Are you sure?" I asked

"It's Matthew. He doesn't get out of work until one. Sometimes I think he just doesn't care about me or Humphrey" Angel said teary eyed. "I mean, when I left him that voice message, he didn't believe me. He called Humphrey just to make sure. He thought I was attention seeking. Can you believe that?" Angel said sounding more angry than upset. "I swear Humphrey better get better soon" she said, returning to sounding upset. I grabbed an unused handkerchief from my pocket and handed it to her

She wiped her eyes with it and threw it at the bin across the room. "Landed a perfect shot I must say" which brought a smile back to her pretty little face. Lily walked back in and said; "Angel, mum said she is fine to leave you home whenever you want". Angel stood up and said, "If she doesn't mind Lily. I would like to go now" she said. "Okay, I'll go get her" Lily said walking back into the kitchen. "You know, my parents wouldn't mind if you stayed here" I said

"Thanks for the offer Kate, but it's probably best if I go home. I don't want Lily to see me upset" Angel explained. "I understand" I answered. Mum walked into the living room whaling her keys around. "Come on pet, the meters running" she said. Angel giggled and followed mum out, with me and Lily closely behind. "Eve can I ask you something?" Angel requested. "Sure honey, what is it?" mum replied. "Well, I don't know what the situation is but, if I need to, can I get a lift with you to the hospital tomorrow?" she asked timidly, almost as if she was scared of my mother's reaction

"Sure honey that's fine. You can just call Kate or Lily any time you need one, and they'll let me know" mum answered sounding happy. "Thanks Eve" Angel replied. "Come on lets go" mum said walking out with Angel to her car. "Wait, I'm coming too" Lily said darting past me out to the car. They all waved back to me and then mum drove out. I watched until they were out of sight before closing the door. I decided to head to my room. My mind just couldn't help but think of Angel. She really is such a sweet girl, she doesn't deserve this. She's going to an empty house, without Humphrey to tuck her in. I hope she knows that we're here for her if she needs us.

I took a glance into the kitchen to see my dad asleep on his arm at the kitchen table. I just decided to leave him in peace. I walked back up stairs and into my room. I glanced at the clock on my nightstand and it read 23:30. I felt a yawn coming on, and I think it's time I go to bed. It's been a long day. I put my phone into the charger and as I did the screen lit up. It just showed the wallpaper; which was a selfies of Humphrey and I that was taken just after the dance battle, he was really sweaty that time. He had his trademark goofball smile. Hard to believe that night was so long ago. I kissed my phone screen before going to sleep

"Goodnight Humphrey"
