Part 3
Liz: I am so sorry that I haven't updated in a while; I got into writing another fic that you might have read, The College Years. I had this part written already, but when I went to post it, I discovered that I had accidentally deleted it. Having that happened and knowing that I had to re- write this part discouraged me, and I didn't want to redo it. But I am, so here it is.
C-chan: Nothing to say...except how tired I am...need...sleep...so if I missed any mistakes, I'm sorry. Lack of sleep does that to ya...
A note to our Reviewers:
STarvixen1: I am glad you like this story, and the Julie/Charlie part. I am sorry that I haven't updated in a while but the explanation is above in my author note. Please continue to read and review. Oh and if you want a less depressing Julie/Charlie, I have another story called the College Years, that is really popular.
STarvixen1: LOL you posted it twice, but that is ok, that has happened to me. Thanks for reviewing!!!!
moviechic189: LOL you said toilet, that is funny; what is even more funny is you thought it was funny that you said toilet. LOL. Ok, ignore that part; I am just being weird, which isn't all that new. Anyways, yes her dad is an ass, and I am glad you hate him because he isn't going to be all that nice in any of this. Thanks for reviewing, and like I said before, if you want to read a less depressing one after this Chapter, I have a second Julie/Charlie fic called the College Years. Anyways, hope you like this.
---Part 3---
After they had finished their Pepsi, Charlie wrapped his arms around her and pulled her to him, sitting down. They didn't speak; they just set there, Julie laying her head on his chest. After a while Charlie rubbed her back and pushed her up a little bit.
"Are you ready to go see you mom?" he asked her; her face clouded over a little bit and he thought she was going to start crying again. But she didn't, she just nodded.
"Okay, let's go find a nurse then." He said, standing her up before he stood up himself. She once again didn't say anything and instead nodded. He wrapped his arm around her shoulder and they went in search of a nurse that could show them where her mom was.
Finally they found one and Charlie got her attention.
"Yes, can I help you?" she asked.
"Yes, umm. My girlfriend's parents were in a car wreck, which killed her mom. When we got here she decided that she wanted to see her dad first. They said that when she was done seeing him and ready to see her mom that we should find a nurse to take us to her. I was wondering if you could take us to her." Charlie explained.
"Sure, but first I need to know her name." The nurse said, then seeing the confused look on his face, "Not your girlfriend's name, her mother's, so that I can look up the room number."
"Oh yeah, I knew that...really. Been a long day. Umm, her name is Marie, Marie Gaffney." He told the nurse.
"Okay, stay here. I will be right back." She told him and walked off.
"Charlie, where did she go? Isn't she going to take us to Mama?" Julie asked Charlie pathetically.
"Yes angel, she is. She just has to find out where your mom is, and she will be right back." Charlie said gently, giving her a worried look when he realized that she was still in shock about everything. He then went into a fowler mood, because he realized that the incident with her father hadn't helped at all. He looked at her again and pulled her closer to him. A few minutes later the nurse came back and led them to the room that Marie was in. "You can stay as long as you need. Take your time." She said to them. "And I am sorry about your loss."
"Thank you." Charlie said to the nurse then turning to Julie. "Ready sweetie?"
"I guess." Julie said softly. He smiled and gently led her into the room and frowned when she wouldn't budge past the door.
"Come on Julie, I am right here, I'm not going to leave you." He said urging her to go in. He gave her a gentle smile when she started walking towards the bed. When she saw her mom lying on the bed, she smiled.
"Charlie, she isn't dead. She is just sleeping. What were they thinking when they said that she had died." She said, obviously in denial. Charlie sighed, wishing it wasn't him that had to explaining to her that her mom was not sleeping.
"Julie they were telling the truth. The doctors wouldn't have teased with something like death." He said as softly and gently as he could. She just looked at him with a blank look on her face for a few minutes, before her face contorted into a look of pain and broke down. He ran to her and wrapped her up in his arms. He didn't say anything at first; he just held her and let her cry.
"It's going to be okay, Jules. I am going to help you through this if you will let me. You just have to let me and I will. So will Connie and Guy if you want; so will the rest of the team. But all you have to do is let us; ask and we will be there for you." He told her gently.
"I DON'T WANT THE WHOLE TEAM TO KNOW!!" She cried, "Not right now anyways."
"Okay, the Coach, Connie, Guy, and I will be the only ones that know." He said, "Is that right?"
"Yes." She said softly. He held her a little longer, before he realized that she was staring back at her mom. He looked at his watch and winced, remembering that he had told his mom that he wouldn't be to late when he called her and told her what was going on. He dreaded what he was about to have to do and pulled a little bit away from Julie.
"Julie, I told my mom we wouldn't be out late and it is getting pretty late. We need to find Coach, Connie, and Guy and go. " He told her.
"NO!!! I'm not ready. Please, just a little bit longer?" She begged him. He was about to say something then got an idea.
"I'll tell you what Jules, you stay here; stay with your mom. I'll go find Coach, Connie and Guy, and then come back to get you. What do you say?" He asked her.
"Okay, sounds good to me." She agreed. "But Charlie? Am I staying with you tonight?"
"Yes, Julie. I couldn't bare the thought of you in the dorm. Neither could my mom, so she agreed to you staying at the apartment. She also said that if you wanted. Connie and Guy could stay also. " He told her smiling at the almost happy look on her face.
"Really? They can stay?" She asked, and he nodded. "Yeah!!!! God. I just sounded like a cheerleader."
"Yeah you did." He said jokingly as he laughed at her. She glared at him and elbowed him in the ribs. "OWW!!! And with that note I am going to find the others."
He left and she turned around and continued to stare at her mom. Charlie, on the other hand, headed back towards Julie's dad's room hoping that they would still be there. When he got there he was happy to see that they hadn't moved. "Thank God!!! Coach, we need a ride to my house. I told my mom that we wouldn't be out to late. And Julie is getting tired." Charlie told Bombay.
"Okay then, lets go. Are all four of you going to your mom's apartment?" He asked.
"Yeah, mom said it was okay." Charlie said.
"That's good." Bombay said nodding his head, "In that case, lets go."
"Okay." Charlie said and gave Connie and Guy a weak smile, getting one in return from both.
"Charlie? Where is Julie?" Connie said.
"She wasn't ready to leave yet, but said that she would when I got back. She begged me to let her stay a little longer, so I said that I would go and find you guys and then we would get her on the way back, and she agreed." Charlie explained.
"Okay, that's good; she needed a little time to think." Coach said, "Lets go and get her."
The other three agreed and they walked off towards where Julie was. They got there and Charlie went in to get her. She was standing at the edge of the bed, holding her mom's hand. When she heard him come in, she kissed her mom's cheek and turned around towards Charlie. There were fresh tears running down her face, but she smiled and went to him. He didn't have to ask her if she was ready; he could tell. So he wrapped his arm around her and they left the room. They went back to the car and Bombay took them to Charlie's mom's apartment. When they got into the apartment Casey hugged her, Charlie, Connie and Guy. They went into the living room where they just sat and talked about anything and everything, except what had happened that day.
Okay, well that is it for tonight. I am sorry about the abrupt ending but I couldn't think of a way to end it. So I ended it there. Please review and tell me what you think. Your reviews help me go on with the story.
