Big apologies everyone I've had such a busy couple of weeks and I must have re-written this chapter over and over but here it goes the next part (but I have started writing the next chapter too)
Logan
I hated waiting around like this. It felt like we had been here ages and we've not anybody come to see us since we first arrived. I hadn't even seen anybody that we could have asked. Maybe it was a good sign that they were all concentrating on Kendall, you know being thorough and everything.
It was frustrating though being sat here almost helpless. I just wished that there was something I could to help Kendall
"Logan" James said softly motioning to the girls who had somehow managed to fall asleep.
I smiled and gently covered them in a blanket. "I can't sleep, I've tried to but every time I close my eyes I see Kendall or the fall"
James and Carlos nodded.
"I'm going to see if I can find out anything, we should have had some news by now" I said
My real plan was to go and sit with Kendall so at least he wouldn't be alone. I knew that if roles were reversed Kendall would refuse to do anything but sit with us and that was probably the reason why Kendall doesn't like hospitals. And I think its for that reason that I knew I wouldn't be able to rest, not properly until Kendall is going to be okay. It was a hard situation I knew Kendall had one hell of a battle yet but I didn't know how to tell the others. Head injuries alone were bad enough but Kendall also had a seizure.
I stopped outside Kendall's room. I wasn't sure what to do or what to say: that was Kendall's strength, no matter what Kendall always knew what to say, and he always thought of plans to get on Bittters' or Gustavo's nerves. I looked through the window at Kendall. He didn't look like Kendall at all, his skin was so pale and white that he almost looked like a ghost. He was hooked up to a heart machine, a drip and a breathing tube. A doctor stood at the foot of his bed reading his notes.
The doctor motioned for me to come in. I hesitated for a moment and then went in.
"Logan, right?" The doctor said "Kendall is doing well and we want to take him for a full body scan but we need to wait a bit longer just in case he does have another seizure"
I nodded "we were beginning to worry to be honest we hadn't heard anything in a while"
The doctor put his hand on my shoulder. "If there was any news I would tell you straight away trust me"
"I know I want to be a doctor but this time its my friend" I said "Can he hear us?"
He shrugged his shoulders "Sorry we have no way of knowing yet but it can't hurt. If he hears you it might help him get better. I'll let you know when we get his blood test results back"
He put Kendall's notes back on the bottom of the bed and left the room.
I had a look at them myself and everything was normal apart from Kendall's brain function. I sat down beside Kendall but I still hadn't figured out what to say. I took a deep breath. "Hey buddy I'm sorry that you were alone in here especially because I know how much you hate hospitals but the doctors have to take care of you. This feels kinda strange, you know and I don't know what to say right now but I'm guessing that you would, you always know the right thing to say"
I shed a tear. It was hard being here knowing that Kendall won't respond, even if does hear me he might not be able to respond or even move.
"Don't worry you're not alone and we're always here in spirit" I promised him. "Don't worry about the tour either because Gustavo and Kelly are postponing it for the meantime"
The door swung open and Jen was standing at the door rubbing her eyes. "Logan"
I gave her a big hug as she started to cry.
"The doctors think that there is something that they need to be concerned about in Kendall's brain so they're taking him for a scan" Jen explained as they rushed Kendall out of the room.
I shook my head, no it wasn't good there was something wrong but the doctors didn't want to tell us until they were sure.
"Kendall looks so pale" Jen said "Just like before"
I held her close "He's going to be okay Jen we're all here for him. He can fight through this"
James
"Logan's right" Carlos said "We won't be able to do anything until Kendall's okay"
I nodded. Logan had gone about five minutes ago and since then all we've done is sit in silence. He was right though: it was pointless trying to sleep unless we absolutely had to, like the girls did.
"What do we do in the meantime?" Carlos asked
"I don't know but we have to be quiet and let the girls sleep" I said. "I'll go grab us some drinks"
I closed the door quietly behind me and went over to the machine. I leaned on the wall beside it and sighed. What was going to happen if we didn't have Kendall back? What if Kendall is never the same again?
I took the drinks back into the room where the girls had woken but they still looked shattered.
"Here" I said giving one to each of them "Any news?"
They shook their heads.
Katie had tears in her eyes "I had a nightmare and saw Kendall fall" I gave her a big hug.
The doctor came in holding a brown envelope "I have just received Kendall's test results and I would like to run a full body scan to check something abnormal on Kendall's brain"
Something abnormal? That definitely does not sound good to me. I wish that Logan was here, he's the only one who understands all of this medical rubbish.
"Do it" Jen said bursting into tears.
He nodded "we're taking him straight away"
"Can I see him first?" Jen asked
he nodded "but you have to be quick, time is of the essence"
