He noticed a pay phone near to him with a sigh he knew what he'd have to do.
Call his parents.
Just as he picked up the reciever Kimi came in through some double doors. He looked at her through the tears that had began to spill out from his eyes and stain his cheeks.
She ran up to him and wrapped her arms round him. All he could do is cry into her shoulder.
"I...It's all my fault." He whispered since that was all he could do
"No it's not Tommy. You did everything you could"
"Your right...I know your right, but I still can't shake the feeling that it's because of me."
She pulled him in closer and held him tighter.
"I'm sorry Kimi" he said gently
"What for?" she asked in suprise.
"For the way I acted toward you after the ambulance got to the riverside"
"Don't be silly... you were upset about Dil"
"Bu-"
"It's forgotten Tommy"
He smiled and kissed her gently. "Your too good for me"
"No. I'm just right" she said kissing him again as the others came in
"How is he?" Chuckie asked
"I dunno. The doctors say he may have some broken bones, but I have a felling it may be worse"
"What makes you say that?" Phil asked in shock
"If it was just broken bones a doctor would have said something by now"
"Well you know what the hospital waiting times are like"
"Yeah. Besides they'd come tell you if something was seriouslly wrong." lil stated
And as if by cue a doctor came out.
"I should just shut up." she murmed
"Mr...Pickles?" he asked as Tommy nodded "Your brother is fine, he has broken one or two bones, but he should make a full recovery."
"That's good." tommy said as he wiped the last of his tears away. "Can we go see him?"
"Yes of course I'll take you to him, but I must insist you go one at a time."
"Tommy you go." kimi said
Tommy smiled "Thanks" he said before kissing her cheek and following the doctor
"I hope he's going to be ok" Kimi said as she watched tommy walk away
"Well the doctor says everything will be fine" Chuckie said putting an arm around her
"I wasn't talking about Dil."
Dil lay in his hospital bed staring up at the ceiling. He had no idea what was going through his mind when he tried to kill himself. He knew no good would come from it, but the idea of not having to deal with his grief was enough.
It wasn't long until the doctor and Tommy came in.
"Dil your brother is here to see you" the doctor said as Dil began to sit up.
He smiled weakly as the doctor left them alone.
"Hey T"
"Hey" he replied gently
"I guess this means I shouldn't try out for the swimming team this year"
"No I guess not"
"I'm...I'm sorry T"
He finally cracked "Why Dil?"
"I don't know. I guess I wanted to escape my pain"
"Your pain? We're all suffering Dil. Imagine how much worse this would have been if you did actually kill yourself?"
"I don't know what I was thinking T. I just felt like everyone had just forgot about grandpa no-one cared anymore."
"That's not true Dil. I'm constantly thinking of Grandpa... and so are the guys. He was a huge part in all of our lives."
Something suddenly trigered in Dils mind.
"Is the reason your acting so hard about this because your trying to suport me?"
Tommy turned and Dil saw the tears that had began in his eyes.
"I'm so sorry T" Dil said as the two just stared at each other
"He blames himself for all this" Kimi said as the others sat down
"What do you mean Kimi?" her brother asked
"He hasn't been able to express his feelings to Dil. He had to be strong for him and because of that Dil thinks he doesn't care."
"How do you know this?"
Kimi laughed a little "I'm his girlfriend, he tells me everything. I had to suport him through this"
"You ok Kim?" Lil asked, she was greetd by a smile by kim as she looked back to the door waiting for Tommy to come back.
"One thing I do know is that if anyone can get through this it's those 2 guys in there" Chuckie said to the agreement of the others.
It didn't take long for Tommy to come out from the room.
"How is he?" Kimi asked as she walked over to Tommy
"He's fine. He's gone to sleep now"
"How about you?"
"I'm feeling better now. We talked for a while"
Kimi hugged him and cried a little into his shoulder, it felt like a huge weight had been lifted from all of them.
"We'll come back tomorrow to bring him home...I dunno what I'm gonna say to mom and dad" tommy said as they all began to make their way out of the hospital.
It's been a while and I apologise, but I've finished my Uni coursework so I have alot of free time on my hands now. So I thought It was only right to add at least one new chapter and why not for this? Especially since it's been over a year since I posted on this story. As always Please R/R and I hope you are enjoying.
