A/N: This time, it's mainly Xavier, not so much Seddie, but c'mon, the kiss guys, the kiss in the last chapter, like it or hate it?


--FREDDIE POV--

So, I wake up to to the dazzling sun in my eyes. I hear Xavier's heart monitor and it's steady beep. I smell strawberries.

I look down, there she is.

Samantha Puckett is lying across my chest.

There's a blanket covering both of us.

I wonder why she's here like this.

I then remember what happened the night before.

I sat up a little bit, and realized Sam and I were on the floor.

My mom walked in quietly. "Mom?" I asked.

"Freddie," she whispered, leaning down so I could see her face-to-face.

"Sam and you fell asleep on the floor like this, and I didn't want to disturb you, so I just covered you with this blanket," she explained.

"What about Xavier?" I asked.

Mom's eyes filled with tears. "Freddie, Xavier, he is sicker than we thought. Tumor, now, a tumor's in his head, and they're going to remove it when his vitals are better. But the truth is, now, he's on Life Support Freddie," mom said, crying silently.

She then left the room.

Life Support.

Xavier.

I looked down at Sam.

She is beautiful.

I brush some hair out of her face.

There she is, soft pink rosy cheeks, and a smile that could kill.

How come I never noticed this before?

Sam then woke up

"Freddie," she whispered.

Shivers crawl up my spine as she says my name and looks at me. "Yes, Sam?" I whisper back.

She sat up. Her hair was messed up, but I don't care. She just stares at me. Her eyes are a cool blue, and they make me feel so light. Silence came upon us. The only noise the the monitor across the room. "I heard about Xavier," she whispered into my ear.

We were both sitting, she was in between my straddled legs, her head in the arc of my neck. We sat there for a while before she said, "He can't die."

"Sam........" I began, but she interrupted me.

"He cant," she said firmly. "He can't! I didn't! I lived! I'm here right now, with you," Sam said, tears spilling out of her eyes.

I hated watching her like this.

So broken.

And so desperate. I pulled her into my arms and she said to me, "Freddie, Xavier needs to live, he needs you more than I do, I would've let go a long time ago if I knew Xavier would not live. I should have, so you would have Xavier."

I can't believe she's saying this. "No!"I say fiercely. "Sam, you're my best friend, and you lived for a REASON! Xavier will live. I'm positive."

Sam just sat there. "Freddie. Xavier's your brother. I'm your friend. He's family. I'm not," she said in a shaky voice.

I grabbed her hands. "But you ARE family! Your my best friend, and I love you," I said to her.

She collapsed in tears. "Freddie," she said.

I just held her in my arms.

Suddenly it was silent.

Including Xavier's heart monitor.

I ran out of the room, shouting "HELP! HELP!" until a doctor came with a concerned look on his face.

"My brother," I gasped.

He was confused until I managed to gasp out ,"Room 205."

The doctor ran like a flipping girl when I said that.

I ran back to my brother.

They were standing over him with defibrillators. "Check 1, 2, 3," they said.

I felt a small soft hand slip into mine.

I turned around and Sam was behind me, fear in her blue eyes.

I pulled her to me and whispered to Xavier. "Come on Xavier, you can do it, be strong, I know you'll make it."

I turned around for a couple of seconds before hearing a sharp intake of breath, making me whip my head around.

Xavier was lying there, eyes rolling up, gasping for breath.

--XAVIER POV--

Darkness.

Pain.

I can't see anymore.

I can't see!

HELP!

--FREDDIE POV--

I'm waiting outside of Xavier's room, Sam's here too, in my arms.

She's scared.

I am too.

A pale doctor approached us. "Are you related to Xavier William Benson?"

I nodded.

He looked nervous then cleared his throat before saying, "Son, I have bad news."

I nodded my head, waiting for him to continue.

"Xavier is........"
