Jake's POV
As Izzy stopped crying, it was time for her to start her walking again well, practice her walking.
"Izzy come on, time for you to start practicing your walking." I said to her.
"Okay, Jake!" Izzy said to me as I helped her of the couch.
As we made it to the stairs, I wanted Izzy to start walking only three steps up, and down.
"You really want me to walk up and down the stairs? What if I fall down again Jake?" Izzy asked me.
"You're now going to fall down Izzy, because you are going to hold on to the railing as you walking." I said to her.
"Okay, Jake!" Izzy said to me as she began to walk down, and up the stairs.
"How am I doing Jake?" Izzy asked me.
"You're doing just fine Izzy just take baby steps." I said to her as she did as I told.
"Izzy, give me your hand." I said to her as I helped her climb up, and down the stairs.
As Izzy and I were walking up and down the stairs, Izzy started to stumble a little bit.
"It's okay Izzy, it's okay I got you." I said to her as we kept going.
"Jake I'm doing it I'm doing it!" Izzy said to me.
"Yes you are yes you are I'm proud of you!" I said to her as I wiped a tear from my eye.
"nice try Izzy but I can tell you the surprise yet you're just going to have to wait a little longer." I said to her.
"Well, okay I'll just continue this exercise!" Izzy said to me as we proceed back to the walking up and down the stairs.
"Izzy Izzy she's all girl, go Izzy!" Cubby said to her as he was cheering.
"Cubby where did you get the girl wig?" I asked him.
"In your closet." Cubby said to me
"Jake, why do you have a wig in your closet?" Izzy asked me.
"I don't know but it does look good on Cubby." I said to her.
"You know it doesn't look good on him." Izzy said to me.
"can we continue my exercise Jake?" Izzy asked me.
"Of course Izzy let's continue!" I said to her as we continue to go on up and down the stairs.
"Go Izzy go Izzy!" Cubby said he was still cheering for her.
"Izzy, you are doing great and keep going!" I said to her.
"Jake can I take a break please?" Izzy asked me as I nodded my head yes.
"Here's more water Izzy!" I said to her as I handed her the cup of water.
"Thanks, Jake! I'm doing an awesome job right?" Izzy asked me.
"Izzy you're doing a fantabulous job!" I said to her as I kissed her cheek.
"A fantabulous job enough for you to tell me what the surprise is!" Izzy said to me.
"Nice try Izzy that's not going to happen." I said to her.
"Well I tried!" Izzy said to me.
"Anyway, Jake what is the next walking exercise?" Izzy asked me.
As we made it to the living room, Izzy started to land on the ball.
"Okay Izzy, the next exercise that I want you to do is slide your feet on the floor using the exercise ball. I will be holding your waist as you do it." I said to her as she started to do it.
Cubby's POV
As I saw Izzy walking with Jake, I really really wanted to walk battle me again. So I got out of my wheelchair and try to walk but then I fell on the floor.
"CUBBY!" Jake and Izzy both said as they ran back upstairs as they saw me on the floor.
"Cubby you okay buddy?" Jake asked me.
"I got out of my wheelchair and I was trying to walk." I said to them as I told Jake and Izzy the truth.
"Cubby you can't do that right now." Izzy said to me.
"I know you saw me walk with Jake I understand that but you can't just magically walk on your own, it doesn't work like that. It takes time cubby it really does and trust me I've been through it I'm still going through it think before you do it okay I love you little brother." Izzy said to me as she gave me a kiss on the nose.
As Jake and Izzy were continuing the exercise, I started to walk again well tried to walk.
"Cubby stop trying to walk!" Jake said to me.
"I can't help it Jake I really want to walk again." I said to him.
"Cubby, you can't walk yet until you have your physical therapy." Jake said to me.
"But I really want to walk I'm tired of staying in The wheelchair." I said to him as I was whining.
"Robert Adrien Andrews stop whining you will get your chance just give it time." Jake said to me.
"Jake I'm taking a break okay." Izzy said to him as Jake give her a thumbs up.
After Izzy told Jake that she was taking a break she went to her bed, and started to read her magazines.
So while Jake and Izzy were reading their magazines and comics, I really really really really really want you to walk. I decided to duty going up and down the stairs exercise that Izzy did earlier.
But as I took one step I started to fall down the stairs.
"CUBBY!" Jake and Izzy both said as they came out of the rooms, rushing to the stairs.
"OH MY GOD! Cubby, are you okay?" Izzy ask to me from above the stairs case.
"No I think I broke my spine more. Oh oh oh my spine.
"ROBERT ADRIAN ANDREWS I TOLD YOU YOU CAN'T WALK YET UNTIL YOU GET YOUR THERAPY DONE BUT NO YOU DIDN'T LISTEN WHAT IS THE MATTER WITH YOU?" Jake asked me.
"Don't yell at me, all I wanted to do is walk." I said to him.
"Looks like you can't walk now and I am now calling nine-one-one you are going to stay down there." Jake said to me.
"Izzy, please tell your boyfriend to call 911." I said to her.
"Guys, don't call 911." I said to them.
"Sorry Cubby, but we have to call nine-one-one sorry." Izzy said to me.
"please don't call 911 please I'm sorry I'm sorry." I said to Jake.
"I'm sorry to oh, that you are the worst with a brother ever right now Cubby." Jake sent to me as that broke my heart.
"JACOB ALEX HUTCHINSON WHAT IS THE MATTER WITH YOU? YOU JUST BROKE CUBBY'S HEART!" Izzy said to him.
"He doesn't listen to either of us Izzy." Jake said to her.
"okay, so he doesn't listen he's only 8 years old!" Izzy said to him as I smiled because she was defending me.
"Are you, defending the boy Izzy?" Jake asked her.
"Yeah I am defending him. Cubbies not only you are my brother Jake he is my little brother too and I think you should start showing him kindness and respect!" Izzy said to him.
"Well maybe, CUBBY SHOULD GET THE CORONAVIRUS!" Jake said to her.
"So you can make my nightmare, reality that is not going to happen Jake." Izzy said to him.
"can you... Guys stop.. arguing?" I asked the as the whole room started to spin.
"Cubby, Cubby are you, are you okay okay?" Izzy asked me as it was now pitch black as I then passed out.
Izzy's POV
Oh my God, Cubby fell down the stairs.
"That's it where's the phone I'm calling nine-one-one now!" I said to myself as I started to dial the number but Jake then snatched it away from my hand.
"Jake I'm not playing around give me the phone back." I said to him.
"No. I'm not letting you call nine-one-one Izzy!" Jake said to me.
"Jake open your eyes, Cubby fell down the stairs, and you're not going to let me call 911 no no it doesn't work like that give me the phone." I said to him.
"Jake Alex Hutchinson give me the phone right now before I call nine-one-one or this case before I call the police on you." I said to him.
"You wouldn't dare calling the police on me you wouldn't call the police on your boyfriend would you?" Jake asked me.
"If my boyfriend was being a selfish brat, then yes, I would." I said to him.
"Give me the phone so I can save Cubby!" I said to him as he finally gave me back the phone, as I then immediately called 911.
"911 what's your emergency?" the permanent asked me.
"Help, help my little brother cubby Adrien Andrews fell down the stairs and broken spine more please send an ambulance right away!" I said to the paramedics.
"An ambulance is on its way, thank you for calling." the paramedic said to me as we both hung up our phones.
As we waited for the ambulance to arrive, Jake and I rushed downstairs but I walked slowly, due to my leg.
"you know this is your fault Jake." I said to him.
"How is it my fault?" Jake asked me.
"If you haven't hit Cubby with a bat and broke his spine, we would have never be in the SITUATION. Cubby would have been fine but no, you had to take a bat and hit him in the back!" I said to him.
"What does that have to do with anything?" Jake asked me.
"Open your eyes Jake open your middle damn adorable eyes, Cubby is unconscious, now he won't be able to walk anymore. Probably forever he won't be able to walk he won't be able to walk down the aisle when he gets married to stormy in the near future. Because you just had to hit him with a bat." I said to him.
"Give me your phone." I said to him as he handed me his phone.
"I am going to keep your phone in my drawer until you learn to respect your little brother." I said to him.
"Izzy, it is half my fault okay yes I did hit cubby with the bat, but did I attentionally tell him to fall down the stairs?" Jake asked me.
"No not really." I said to him.
"Jake go get the ice pack please." I said to him.
"Come on can we just stay here and wait for him to die?" Jake asked me as I gave him a serious look.
"I'll go get the ice pack please don't hurt me." Jake said to me as he went to go get the ice pack.
"Cubby, wakey wakey." I said to him as I was slapping his face gently.
"Come on cubby come on wake up buddy wake up please don't make my nightmare into a reality please wake up." I said to him.
"Hey, I'm back with the ice pack!" Jake said to me.
"Awesome, Jake! Place the ice pack on his back please." I said to him as he did.
"Is Cubby waking up?" Jake asked me.
"No, he's not waking up." I said to him.
"Cubby why did you have to try to walk?" Jake asked himself.
"I regret everything I've done to Cubby already." Jake said to himself.
"So, do you really feel bad about what you did to Cubby back at the hospital?" I asked him.
"Yes most certainly yes!" Jake said to me.
"Cubby, please wake up, I'm sorry for hitting you with the bat back at the hospital." Jake said to him as he snapped Cubby"s face gently.
"Maybe you should give him mouth-to-mouth." Jake suggested to me.
"Jake that only works in movies I'm not doing that." I said to him.
"Come on Izzy, think about like Snow White but instead of you sleeping it's him and your snow-white and he's your little brother so, lay a smooch on him already." Jake said to me as I kissed Cubby cheek.
"Hey guys!" Cubby said to us as he was slowly waking up.
"Cubby, I don't know how to say this but...
"YOU'RE GOING BACK TO THE HOSPITAL!" Jake said as he finished for me.
"WHAT NO NO NO I'M NOT GOING BACK NO I DON'T WANT TO GO BACK NO NO NO NO NO NO I'M NOT GOING NO THERE'S NO WAY YOU'RE GOING TO MAKE ME I'M NOT GOING!" Cubby said to us as he was freaking out.
"Cubby you fell down the stairs, you need to go back to the hospital." I said to him.
"No!" Cubby said to me.
"Uh, Izzy the ambulance is here!" Jake said to me.
"Just give me a minute." I said to him.
"Cubby, why don't you want to go back to the hospital?" I asked him
"Because it's scary and I don't want to go back." Cubby said to me.
"Cubby the doctors are just going to check your spine to see if it's broken even more that's it okay and if it is broken even more than you're going to have to wait longer for your spin to heal, order for you to do your physical therapy." I said to him.
"Izzy, I'm scared." Cubby said to me.
"Jake and I will be with you don't worry little brother the doctors are going to take good care of you okay come on." I said to him as the paramedics came with the gurney lifted him up and putted Cubby inside the back of the ambulance, with Jake and I are sitting on the bench.
Jake's POV
Once we made it to the emergency room, the paramedic placed Cubby in a hospital bed.
"What seems to be the problem here today now?" The doctor asked Cubby.
"Well, my my my my my my my my..." Cubby said to the doctor as he was trying to explain.
"Well Dr. Simmons, Izzy and I were in our room reading our magazines and comments until we heard crying downstairs so we went to check up on coming that's when we saw him on the floor downstairs and to keep it simple, and short, he fell down the stairs." I said to him as I was. Explaining what happened.
"I see well it says he on your chart, you've broken your spine. we are going to have to do an x-ray to make sure it didn't get damaged more." Dr. Simmons said to us asking left.
"Thank you, Jake!" Cubbies said to me.
"I'm still mad at you." I said to him.
"I know." Cubby said to me.
"Why you so quiet Izzy?" I asked her.
"Just worried about Cubby, that's all Jake." Izzy said to me.
"Thanks big sis!" Cubby said to her.
"Cubby, what were you thinking OF DOING THAT?" I asked him.
"Drake please don't start this now." Izzy said to me.
"No no he needs to hear this from his father." I said to her.
"Oh so now you want to be his father?" Izzy asked me.
"Hold your little Izzy horses." I said to her.
"ROBERT ADRIEN ANDREWS, WHAT IS THE MATTER WITH YOU?" I asked him.
"Jake please not now please." Cubby said to me.
"We're doing it now!" I said to him.
"I'm sorry Dad!" Cubby said to me.
"You better be sorry this time because once you get home you are so grounded young man!" I said to him.
"that means no TV no video games, and no hanging out with stormy and I mean it!" I said to him.
"Jake, Jake, do you think you're going a little too far on this?" Izzy asked me.
"NO I AM NOT GOING A LITTLE TOO FAR ON THIS!" I said to Izzy.
"Jake, come on lighten up Jakey. Sure, he's doing something bad but don't you remember when you were young and you didn't the same things?" Izzy asked me.
"No I never had a normal childhood, so I don't remember." I said to her.
"I was talking about when we moved in with Peter pan when we were younger." Izzy said to me.
"Oh I sort of remember a little bit of it." I said to her.
"Jake remember when I was 3 years old and you started to like me as a friend but you had temper tantrums back then?" Izzy asked me as I nodded my head yes.
"well don't you remember I was playing with my Barbie doll and then you came over and broke the head off of it?" Izzy asked me.
"Izzy that was a really long time ago." I said to her.
"Yeah but I was still upset, that you broke my Barbie doll." Izzy said to me.
"Yeah but I said sorry to you." I said to her.
"Yeah like five four day later. Took me time to forgive you Jake." Izzy said to me.
"Okay you're right I did do bad things when we were young but, you're right maybe I was being a big brat to Cubby, maybe I went too far and I'm sorry." I said to her.
"it's okay Jake." Izzy said to me.
"I love you!" I said to her.
"I love you too Jake!" Izzy said toe as we shared a kiss together.
After Izzy and were done with our conversation, the doctor came to take Cubby up to the X-ray room.
"Okay, Cubby time to go on a little trip to, x-ray land!" The doctor said to him as they were wheeling Cubby's bed out of the emergency room.
Cubby's POV
Once the doctors took me into the X-ray room I started to get really nervous.
"Cubby, it's going to be okay." The doctor said to me.
"Okay." I said to him.
"Yeah, all you have to is stay still." The nurse said to me.
"Alright!" I said to her.
"OK cubby you are going to lay down on your stomach, in order for us to give you an x-ray on your spine." The doctor said to me.
"Okay." I said to him as the nurse helped me roll onto my stomach.
As I laid flat on my stomach, it was time for them to do the X-ray.
"Alright Cubby, when we tell you to breathe breathe, hold it for five seconds and release." The doctor said to me.
"Okay." I said to him.
"OK cubby breathe, hold it for five seconds, and release." The doctor said to me as I did as I was told.
But as I was holding my breath, it was getting harder for me to breathe.
"Cubby you doing okay?" The doctor asked me.
"No it's getting harder for me to breathe." I said to him.
"We're almost done just hang in there." The doctor said to me.
"Okay." I said to him.
As the doctors were taking one more picture, it was over.
"Cubby, we will give you your results in a few minutes just hang in there." The doctor said to me as the nurse took me back to the emergency room where Jake and Izzy were waiting for me.
So as the nurse finally brought me back to the emergency room, I can tell that Jake and Izzy were worried about me.
"Hey Cubby how did it go?" Izzy asked me.
"It went okay, but when they were doing my x-ray, I was having difficulty breathing." I said to Jake and Izzy as they looked at each other worried.
"Izzy, I think Cubby might have a condition and he might need to be tested on." Jake said to her.
After a few minutes silence was over, a doctor came back with Cubby's x-ray.
"Okay mr. Andrews, I have your x-rays back and you're not going to love this at all."
"What is it?" I asked Dr. Simmons.
"Your spine is broken again." The doctor said to me as Jake was really mad at me this time.
"Dr. Simmons, Cubby told us that he was having difficulty breathing when they went to on his X-rays, do you think he can be tested on that and see what's going on?" Izzy asked him.
"I'll see, what I can do." Dr. Simmons said to her as he left.
"OKAY NOW I'M FREAKING OUT!" Cubby said to us.
"Cubby it's going to be okay!" Izzy said to me.
"I'm scared." I said to them.
"about what? That you fell down the stairs, broken spine AGAIN, and you learn to that you're not allowed to walk without having your physical therapy?" Jake asked me.
"No, THAT I MIGHT NEED TO GET TESTED ON IF I HAVE A BREATHING PROBLEM!" I said to him.
"Oh!" Jake said to himself.
"Jake do you even care about Cubby?" Izzy asked him.
"Yes, really deeply Izzy!" Jake said to her.
So as the doctor came back, he told me this.
"Okay Cubby, we are going to send you to the doctor's office so we can see if you have asthma, or not." The doctor said to me as we all went to the doctor's office.
"OK cubby I want you to start breathing a little bit breathe in and out from your nose to your mouth." The doctor said to me as I did.
"I HAVE ASTHMA I NEVER HEARD THAT BEFORE IN MY LIFE. IS IT SCARY?" I asked Dr. Simmons.
"Cubby it's not scary it's just asthma all you need is a inhaler." Dr. Simmons said to me.
"Oh well that's not that bad." I said to Dr. Simmons.
"it's not bad Cubby, it's actually kind of fun!" Jake said to me.
"Actually Jake it's not, and this is serious. You see when Cubby starts to have difficulty breathing his airway will shut if you doesn't take his pump." Dr. Simmons said to Jake.
Jake's POV
After Cubby was done freaking out, the doctors took him to his hospital room as Izzy and I followed.
"hey we are,
room 335!" The doctor said to Cubby.
"Thanks, doc." Cubby said as the doctor putted the breaks on Cubby's hospital bed, and left the room.
"How you doing Cubby?" Izzy asked him.
"I'm okay but, I'm worried." Cubby said to her.
"Cubby, there's nothing to be worried about you'll be okay." Izzy said to him.
As Cubby, was done changing into his hospital gown, I picked him up, and placed him on his hospital bed.
"How long am I going to stay?" Cubby asked us.
"I really don't know, buddy." Izzy said to him.
That's when the doctor came back, as he forgot to tell me something.
"Forget something dr. Simmons?" I asked him.
"Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you that Cubby will need to have surgery again. That is all bye." Dr. Simmons said to us as left the room.
Just right after the doctor left, Cubby started to freak out.
"SURGERY AGAIN OH MAN." Cubby said to himself.
"Cubby you're going to do okay, it's only a surgery." Izzy said to him.
"IT'S ONLY A SURGERY IT'S NOT JUST A SURGERY IZZY IT'S WHERE PEOPLE PUT YOU TO SLEEP, THEN THEY START CUTTING YOU OPEN." Cubby said to her.
"Okay then?!" Izzy said to herself.
"That's what happens, Cubby!" I said to him as I was reading my comics.
"You did this Jake. If you haven't hit me with a bat, I wouldn't need surgery." Cubby said to me.
"I told him the same thing, Cubby." Izzy said to him.
"Cubby I didn't I didn't mean to I'm sorry okay this is my final sorry I'm really sorry. maybe it's for the best maybe you should never have a big brother right here, right now so I'm done." I said to him as I left the room in Shane.
Izzy's POV
After Cubby was done on my chest, I went to go catch up to Jake with my crutches.
"Hey you okay baby?" I asked him.
"I'll be fine Izz, I'm the worst big brother ever." Jake said to me.
"Jakey no you're not. You're the best big brother ever to Cubby! Jake, you have done everything for him when he was younger. You taught him how to walk when he was a baby you also made baby noises to make him laugh." I said to him.
"Thanks for cheering me up Izzy! But I'm not cut out for this big brother stuff right now sorry." Jake said to me as he continued walking as I followed him to keep him company.
"Izzy do you think Cubby will forgive me?" Jake asked me.
"Of course he will Jake he's our little brother he will forgive you no matter what he still loves you. You just need to give him time, to cool down." I said to him.
"You do have a way of cheering me up don't you?" Jake asked me.
"It's like my secret mommy power Jake!" I said to him.
"Izzy I love you!" Jake said to me.
"I love you too Jake!" I said to him.
