Angel: NO MORE CLIFFIES!
Me: Okay I promise
Mimi: What's gonna happen to Collins?
Me: Wait and see, Angel you'll be on soon.
Angel: I still haven't found the right dress! (cries)
Collins was rushed to the hospital with the others following behind him. When they got there, the doctors rushed him into the ER leaving them all in the waiting room. They all sat there for what seemed to be hours. After a while Dr Stevens came in and asked to speak to Jason. They walked out to another room as Jason sat down.
"Okay, we did some tests on your dad and his t-cells are dangerously low. We're thinking he's reached the final stage, which means he may only have a few months, maybe less. He's done quite well for some one who's had AIDS for 20 years so who knows what could happen. Now I've heard that you reside in the building that's about to be torn down correct?"
"That's right" Jason said sadly.
"Well I would advise that you all find a stable living space soon. His health will not allow him to live outside anymore." He added "We've got him stabilized now but he's unconscious. You and your…uh…family can go see him in a few minutes"
Jason thanked him and went outside to tell the rest of them.
Meanwhile back in Collins room, Collins lay there unconscious. He was hooked to a monitor and all different kinds of tubes.
Collins' subconsciousCollins was in a tunnel heading for a white light. He was almost at the end when Angel stopped him.
"Baby, go back it's not your time"
"But Angel, I miss you. Ever since you died it's been so hard. I had to move out of our place because I couldn't stand being without you. We're being kicked out of our home, Mark and his son are at each other's throats, everyone's just falling apart since Mimi died."
"Honey I know, I've been watching. But remember you have Jason to look out for. And remember, ever since I died you've been the glue that holds them together."
"Ang, I'm always in pain! I haven't been able to work in weeks, I'm always coughing it's just…"
"I know but we'll be together soon enough."
Together Again
Collins: You've been gone for years now, you've left all of our lives.
We said we'd always be there through the laughter and the strife.
Why should I try anymore, it's harder everyday.
I just want the pain to finally go away.
Angel: I know sweetheart, it's harder since Meems and I are gone.
But you've gotta have the strength
The strength to carry on
You've lasted for another sixteen years, this proves that you're tough
Just hang on for a while, we'll be together soon enough
Collins: Why should I wait anymore, I'm too tired to pretend.
In about a few months, it'll finally be the end
Angel: You've gotta be here now
Or they'll all fall apart
You all have got to save your homes
And now's the time to start!
You've gotta hang on
Until the very end
Then we'll be
Both: Together Again.
They shared a tender kiss before Angel spoke again. "Now turn around and finish the fight to save the Loft. For Jason's sake! I'll see you later honey" she said before disappearing into the light.
Collins woke up to see his son and the rest of his boho family in his room.
"Guys, I saw Angel and she told me to turn back. She said we have to fight to save our homes. And it's true! I'm letting you all know this now, I will not die in this hospital but in our loft with my son and you all by my side!"
Jason stood up, "My dad's right we're all in this together!" he said as they all cheered.
Kyle joined in "We need a plan. What could we do?"
"We could do a protest"
"Or sit in!"
"Or we could all march down to Westport with torches and riot!"
Everyone was silent for a minute.
"Uhh no Rachel, that's called illegal" Collins said with a chuckle.
"But you all are right, we're gonna save our homes if it's the last thing we do!" Ryan exclaimed.
Just then the doctor walked in, "Okay everyone it's time to head out, this man needs his rest."
"When will I be able to leave?"
"Hopefully tomorrow or in a few days tops."
"Sounds great" Jason spoke up.
"Get ready because when I get back we're getting ready to fight." Collins said before he fell asleep.
Angel: Yayy!
Mimi: You did great Angel-chica!
Me: I hated the song, though
Mimi: (huggles) it was great sweetie.
Me: But no more cliffies
Angel: WHEEEEE!
Me: Stay tuned because I'll give you a new person to narrate with.
Angel: Who? Who?
Me: You'll have to wait and see.
Mimi: R&R! We have pizza!
