Chapter 8: Other Shifts

Antonio's POV

So, a week has pasted by. So it is Kevin and I's turn to watch over Emily in the night. On some nights, me and Emily would stay up and tell all kinds of stories to eachother. Emily would tell about her life on a farm and I would tell about my life about being a fisherman and past times. On one night when we were talking, we were talking about my childhood. I was telling her about me and Jayden's little adventures together when I was living here. It seemed to me that everytime we talked about my childhood and it included Jayden, she seemed to be more interested in it.

"Ok, so here's what happened." I said as I started to tell her a story about me and Jayden. "There was this little mouse in the middle of the hallway, just sitting there. I had come out of my room and saw Jayden just standing there with a frighten look on his face. I asked him what was the matter and he pointed at the mouse. So I went and got the mouse and put him in my hand. I went over to Jayden and tryed to give it to him. But he just ran away so I started chasing him, trying to scare him with this little mouse in my hand!"

"Omg! That is hilarious!" Emily laughed. "I would have never thought that Jayden would be scare of mice!"

"Oh he isn't. He use to be but not anymore."

"I know. But he like, not scare of anything. I would have never thought he would have be scared of mice."

"Oh, he's scare of more than you think."

"I guess so. I guess I need to know him alittle more."

"Oh yes you do." I gave her a you-better-do-as-I-say look, but we ended up giggling that look off my face.

Kevin's POV

This week was me and Antonio's turn for watch over Emily. I had the last shift, so alot of nights I had to come in and interrupt conversations Emily and Antonio were having. One night, I came into the room and heard about some fishing story Antonio was telling.

"...and then the fish wouldn't get out of my pants. I stood up on my boat but then fell into the water."

I saw Emily start laughing and notice me standing at the door. "Oh hey, Kevin."

"Yo, what's up Kev! You want me to repeat that story I had finished telling Emily." Antonio said as he got up from his sit and walking to the door.

"Antonio, I don't even want to know how that fish got into your pants so, no." I patted his shoulder as he exited through the door.

"Wow, almost every time I come in here for my shift, you guys are telling some crazy story."

"Yeah, Antonio always has a funny story that he wants to me. He's such a funny character." Emily said as she laughed to herself.

"Well, now you must be tired from laughing at all his stories. So I would advise you to get some rest."

"Why? I get to sleep all through the day if I wanted to, so why not stay up in the night when you guys are here!"

"Whatever you say, Em."

"Since I'm already wide awake, I've been wanting to ask you a question. How are you and Mia?"

"Oh, we're great. We've been going on good dates and ended up having a great time."

"That's good. I've always thought that you and Mia made a cute couple! I was right!"

"Like I said, whatever you say." I laughed and tried to beg her to go back to sleep so I could get some sleep too.

Mia's POV

So, another week has pasted. This week, it is my turn to watch over Emily. It was also the last week where any of us had to watch her because Emily would be feeling back to normal again. I had made everyone agreed that I would get this whole week to look over Emily to myself. So I had brought in a sleeping bag and pillow so I would have a little place to sleep for the whole night.

One night, Emily was the one to wake me up.

"Mia, are you awake?"

"I am now. What is it that you need?"

"I can talk to you?"

"Of course!" I pulled up a chair besided her bed. "What is it?"

"Ok, well over the past few weeks, I noticed Jayden and Mike kind of ignoring eachother. I've also noticed that Jayden has always been coming to me, asking me if I was alright or if I needed anything. So I kind of have this theory that he likes me. Do you have anything you would like to say about what I've just said?"

Ok, so I was going to tell her. Whether Jayden likes it or not. "Well first of all, yes, Jayden does like you. Second, its true that Mike and Jayden have been ignoring eachother. That's because they have been having a alittle feud over you."

"A feud? Over me?" Emily asked, looking not so surprised.

"Yes, they both want you. But do you know who you want?" I asked her.

Emily had thought for a moment, then started hesitating the words out. "Well...I...um...kind of...well...like..them.. I mean..."

"Emily, take a deep breathe in, and slowly let it out."

Emily did as I said and her words came out more clearly. "Ok, well, I kind of like them both now. At first, I only liked Mike and liked Jayden as a friend. But after seeing Jayden getting all worried about me, trying to help me as much as possible, and comforting me when I was having bad dreams in the night. I've started to rethink about my decision on who I like. But with Mike, he makes me feel like I'm always have fun, with his comical ways and stuff. And he has also always been there for me." She stopped to take in a breath.

I gentlely took her hand and looked at her. "Listen, I know this decision is going to be hard for you. If you need any advice on this, I want you to always know that I'm here to give it to you."

Emily gave me a tiny smile as I saw a tear running down her cheek, and then pulled me in for a hug.

She whispered, "Thank you so much, Mia. You're like another big sister and best friend to me."

"Like I said, I'm always here when you need me."
