Hello author here, just wanted to say thank you for continuing to read both of my fanfics. Also I apologise for not updating this sooner but I've been so busy with uni lately that it was easier and quicker to do some of my one-shots with the little time I had than trying to write this one. Plus, I want to say thank you for all the lovely comments I keep getting. Anyway here's the next chapter.


The Beach

"I've got to admit; I can see why Kyle likes it here so much!" Callie says to her parents as they walk down the beach.

William says to his daughter while watching someone fishing: "I agree! It would be nice to be able to fish anytime you want, as a matter of fact I might just go and say hello to that man over there."

William walks away leaving his wife and daughter to talk.

"Maybe we could visit Kyle now that we have met his biological family, as this also seems like a nice place for a holiday?" Louise says to her daughter who was watching a guy coming out of the water.

Callie smiled at the guy as he ran past with his surfboard: "Why not mum? Better yet, why don't we move here?"

Laughing, Louise says: "What about uni? And not to mention mine and your dad's jobs?"

"Well I can transfer to the local uni here and you can get always get a new job."

"You didn't mention your father in that!"

"Well dad is never home anyway so it wouldn't bother him whether we lived in Melbourne or here in Summer Bay."

"Sorry Callie it's just not going to happen, besides I like the fact that Kyle is able to come and visit us, whenever he wants to escape this small town."

"Who would want to escape this place?" Callie says as she looks around "IT'S BEAUTIFUL!"

The two of them stop walking and talking as they approach William.

William stands beside his wife and daughter and introduces them to the man: "Alf Stewart meet my wife, Louise and our daughter, Callie."

"Hello! I guess you are young Kyle's family then?" Alf asks them.

"Yeah we are and don't mind me asking but how do you know Kyle?" Louise asks the older man curiously.

"Oh sorry, Phoebe lives at the Caravan Park with me, my daughter Roo and her foster kids Maddy and Tamara." Alf explains to them.

"Sooo that's where she lives?!" Callie says loudly.

The Surf Club

Phoebe was currently sat at table drinking her smoothing while her friends (Josh, Evie, Maddy and Oscar who was trying to play the best that he can with a cast on his arm) play a game of pool.

"PHOEBE!" A young girl shouts from the doorway.

Phoebe looks up to see Darcy heading towards her with Bianca who was holding Harley.

"Grommet, it's good to see you!" Phoebe says as she gives the young girl a hug and takes Harley so she can hug him too.

"Hi Bianca!" The other four teens say as they head back over to the table for a break.

Bianca smiles at the teens then asks: "How is Kyle doing since I left to pick these two up from the city?"

Phoebe who was tickling Harley, says to her: "Your better off asking Heath that question considering I don't want to talk about it!"

"It can't be that bad surely?"

"Oh Bianca, it is bad!"

"Well then I better go, as I promised Heath I would meet him at the hospital."

Phoebe who by now had stopped tickling Harley asks: "Do you want me to look after the kids, while you head to the hospital?"

"Are you sure you don't mind?"

"No I don't mind as I've missed them both so much." Phoebe tells her.

"Then ok, thank you Pheebs." Bianca says.

"No problem." Phoebe tells her as she watches the woman leave.

45 minutes later…

Hospital – Kyle's Room

By the time, Bianca arrived at the hospital Kyle was fast asleep.

"Where's the kids?" Heath asks her quietly.

"Phoebe offered to look after them for us." Bianca replies to him "How's Kyle doing? Phoebe said it was bad when I asked her."

Realising that Bianca thought Phoebe meant that Kyle was doing to well, she started to explain what had happened since she had left.

10 minutes later…

"So he took it out on Pheebs, when she was only doing the right thing?"" Bianca says when Ricky had finished explaining.

"Pretty much." Casey tells her.

As they were all talking, no one realised that Kyle was actually awake and listening to the whole conversation that was going on around him.

Eventually it goes quiet, Kyle says loudly: "She betrayed my trust!"

"Oh, so you are awake then?" Brax states.

"Well it's a bit hard to sleep when you lot are talking!" Kyle says as he sniffs the air.

"What are you doing?" Casey asks curiously.

Kyle tells them that: "It smells funny in this room."

"Well it is a hospital, Kyle." Bianca reminds her brother in law.

"No, that's not what I meant!"

"Then what do you mean?" Ricky asks him.

"Well what I mean is that it smells like gas in here but not that kind of gas before you say anything Heath." Kyle looks at him.

"Then what other form of gas can there be?" Heath asks.

"Gas as in petrol!"

Brax looks at his brother with a worried look: "Well Kyle, there's definitely no petrol in here."

"WELL I KN…" Kyle abruptly stops speaking.

The other occupants in the room watch as Kyle's eyes roll into the back of his head and he starts seizing again.

Casey quickly gets up from where he was sitting and ins out the room to get help.

Hospital – Corridor

As Casey get out of them the room and into the corridor he quickly spots Hannah: "Hannah!"

"What is it?" The nurse asks him.

Casey quickly explains what's happening to Kyle. Once she had finished listening, Hannah pages Nate and then races into the room pushing everyone out just as Nate arrives.

The Diner

While that was happening at the hospital, Phoebe was sat in the Diner with Darcy, Harley and Josh who had agreed to help her babysit just as the Taylors and Alf entered.

"Hey Pheebs!" Callie says as she walks over to the table.

"Hey Callie! Josh meet Callie, she's Kyle's sister." Phoebe says to Josh.

"Hi!" Josh says to her.

"Hi Josh!" Callie replies then looks at the two kids and asks "So who are these two?"

"Oh, this Darcy." Who waves then Phoebe turns and says "This is Harley! They're Kyle's niece and nephew."

"Oh cool! So which brother?"

"Heath!"

"Really?" Callie asks not thinking she heard that properly.

"Yep, he's actually a good dad." Phoebe tells her friend.

"I'm surprised."

"Why? Because he doesn't seem like the type to be a good father to his kids?" Josh butts in "It's a bit disrespectful, don't you think?"

"Well sorry, I was just saying." Callie states just as Louise walks over and says hello.

"Hi Louise, I see William arrived eventually." Phoebe says as she looks over to William and Mr Stewart.

"Yeah he got here last night as it happens." Louise replies to the teen.

"I bet he has already told Kyle off."

"How did you guess? Louise asks which causes them all to laugh "So we met Alf on the beach and he told us you lived with him?"

"Yeah his daughter took me as Brax didn't think it was appropriate for me to live at their place." Phoebe responds to her.

"He was right to say that. Well, we are going to go join William and Alf." Louise says "Come on Callie!"

Watching the two women walk away and sit at another table, Josh says to his friend: "SO they were Kyle's family?"

Phoebe just nods her head.

Hospital – Kyle's Room

Just as the Taylors were sitting down to order lunch, Kyle was starting to come round from his seizure.

Pushing the mask off his face, Kyle asks: "Wh what happened?"

As Nate places the mask back on his young patient's face, he replies: "You had a seizure while talking your brothers and the girls. So I'm going to send you for another MRI, just to be safe."

With that they wheel Kyle out of the room.

Hospital – Corridor

"Nate! Where are you taking him?" Brax asks noticing Kyle was awake again.

"I'm going to take Kyle for another MRI to make sure that his kidney function hasn't dropped again then I am starting him on dialysis pronto." Nate tells them all.

As Nate turns and walks away, it suddenly dawns on the whole Braxton family just how serious Kyle's situation was.

1 Hour and 10 Minutes Later…

Hospital – Waiting Room

"We came as quickly as we could!" Louise say as the Taylors and Phoebe enter the room.

"Where's Darcy and Harley?" Heath demands to know as soon as he sees the teen.

Phoebe looks at him and says: "Don't worry Josh has taken them back to the house and is going to give them their dinner."

William ignore the conversation going on between Phoebe and Heath and directs a question Brax: "Can you tell us exactly what happen?"

With that both Brax and Ricky proceed to tell the four of them everything that had happened since they saw Kyle this morning.

55 Minutes Later…

Everyone was sat around the room thinking to themselves when Nate reappears.

"Its not good I'm afraid." Nate tells them "Kyle's kidney function is now at 14 and its dropped way to quickly for my liking."

"So, what happens now?" Callie asks the doctor.

"Well I'm going to place Kyle on a dialysis machine and I've also placed him on the transplant list but unfortunately it is a very long list and it could be a long time before a donor is found."

"What are you saying Nate?" Bianca asks their friend.

"I'm saying that Kyle might be on the machine for the rest of his life." Nate explains to them all.

Phoebe just listens as she tries to take in everything, then says: "So your telling us that for the rest of his life, Kyle is going to be stuck in a hospital bed hooked up to a machine."

Nate just looks at her: "I said he might be, Phoebe. It all depends on how long it takes to find him a kidney. Now Brax can you come and signs some forms please."

"Sure." Brax replies.

With that the pair leave the room to give the others time to get over the shock of the news that they had just been told.
