Chapter 10: Girl Situation
"Hey guys, sorry to wake you all, but Cooper is awake now and ready for more visitors." The doctor said, waking up the sleeping friends. "As many of you as you'd like can go in now. He's doing a lot better."
"Oh thanks doctor." Qaasim said, shaking his hand. "So, who wants to go in with me?"
"I will." Kristina said, shaking awake a sleeping Alex, who had his legs in her lap. "Hey sleepy head, get up. Cooper's awake. You said you had to talk to him about your girl situation."
"Oh yeah, thanks." Alex yawned. "Wait, how'd you know I had to talk to him about a girl?"
"Alex, you've talked in your sleep since you were 6. How do you think we found out where you hide all you secret food on tour?" David asked him.
"WHAT?! You guys told me it was rats!" Alex exclaimed.
"And you believed us?" Thomas laughed along with everyone else. Alex pouted and followed Kristina and Qaasim into the room.
"Hey my man!" Qaasim said as he entered Cooper's room first. They did the guy handshake.
"Hi Coopypoo!" Kristina squealed, running and giving him a hug.
"Coopa Troopa!" Alex smiled, giving his old friend a hug.
"It's so good to see you guys." Cooper said, in his raspy voice that was barley there.
"It's good to see awake and well, alive." Alex said.
"Yeah, we were all super worried." Qaasim told him. "The girls wouldn't stop crying out there."
"So, I was scared my boy wouldn't make it!"
While Kristina, Alex, and Qaasim talked with Cooper, Nat and Rosalina went on a walk through the hospital.
"So, how do you like England?" Rosalina asked him.
"Ehhh, it's alright. But nothing compares to being here with you." Nat smiled.
"Well, are you gonna go back?" Rosalina asked.
"Uhh, me and Alex were supposed to kick off our world tour yesterday in New Orleans." Nat told her. "I thought you...knew."
"No, I hadn't heard anything. What are you guys gonna do about it then?"
"We canceled the first few concerts and added them onto the end of the tour." Nat said. "But I don't know if I wanna do the tour anymore."
"What are you saying Nat? It's always been your dream to do a world tour!" Rosalina said.
"Well yeah, but what about you? What about us?" He asked.
"Don't worry about it, I'll come visit you guys all the time." Rosalina said. "I'm not letting you give up this huge opportunity."
"Okay, but as soon as this tour is over, me and Alex are moving to L.A." Nat said.
"You guys don't have to leave London just cause of me." She told him,
"No, I want to. And Alex hates it there anyway." Nat told her. "Juanita moved out to L.A. after she graduated and Alex has been trying to win her back forever."
"Is that what he's talking to Cooper about?"
"Yupp, I'm sure Cooper will give him some good advice." Nat said. "After all, he helped me get you back."
"Why does that not surprise me?" Rosalina laughed. Nat stopped in the hallway, and pulled her towards him.
"These past 6 years, I've been waiting to do this again." He told her. She leaned in to kiss him and he took off running. "Race you to Coopers room, first one there buys everyone coffee!"
"Ooohh, Nat Wolff, you are dead!" She laughed, chasing after him.
