Ste's Pov

I don't know what to do Robbie is kicking and screaming and no matter how hard I shake him he doesn't wake up. I start to hear crying but it isn't coming from Robbie but from Leah. If it could my heart would of broken in half. I'm scared daddy. Don't worry everything is going to be ok I tell her, but in reality everything's far from ok.

I feel Ste shaking me but for some reason I can't respond. I wish I could kiss that frown off his face but my mind and body don't seem to be connected. I hear someone enter the room but I can't recognize their voice. It sounds like a child's voice but I don't remember Ste ever having kids. The child comes up to me and wraps her arms around me telling me everything is going to be fine. Even though I know she's only saying what she knows best I believe her and I'm able to have control over my body again. She holds on to me and I start to cry. I've never had people be so nice to me and for once I'm able to enjoy the comfort they're giving me. Ste joins in on the hug. We remain in silence until he whispers to me that we have to talk about what happened last night. I just nod my head.

I tell Leah to go play with her dolls so Robbie and I could be alone. Before she leaves she asks that if I was lying to her about Robbie being my friend and that Robbie is actually my boyfriend. I start to blush and Robbie starts laughing. Leah just go play with your dolls I tell her. Ok she says and happily skips out of the room.

Ste is red as a tomato and I can't help but laugh. He tells me to stop laughing or he'll shut it for me but that makes me laugh even more. Seriously Robbie it wasn't that funny he says. Come on Ste learn to have a laugh once in a while I tell him. Robbie I know you're trying to avoid talking to me but I can't help unless you tell me what happened. You got to take this seriously. I know I tell him but it's just that I'm having a hard time remembering. Well let's start from the beginning, why are you here he asks me. I needed some money but that's not why I ended up here I tell him. Do you remember talking to anybody that could possibly tell us what happened he asks me. I try to think back to last night but my head starts hurting really badly. Are you ok mate he asks me but I can't even form words my head is in too much pain. The pain starts taking over my whole body and I'm only able to see Ste one last time before blacking out.

I reach for the telephone and ring the ambulance. It takes a couple minutes for them to arrive but as soon as they do they're taking him to the hospital. I'm able to ride with them and hold Robbie's hand. Once we're inside the hospital the nurses prevent me from coming with them saying that only family members are allowed. I don't try to argue with them and the receptionist asks me to fill out papers. While I try to fill out the papers the best I can I think back to how I should of rung the ambulance when I initially was. I know I have to let Sandy know what's happened to her son but the thing is I have no clue what has happened. Once the nurses return they ask if I have Robbie's parents contacts but I lie to them and say that I already called his mom and that she's on her way. I beg them to tell me if Robbie is ok and they say they're not sure. They ask me how long he had been at my house and I say since 3:45 last night and they ask me if he was acting strange causing me to be more worried than before. They also tell me that they're running a few tests on him and they can't give out any more info until his mom comes. I ask them for his room number and they give it to me. Once they leave I go to the cafeteria to get some coffee. As I sit down and try to relax I can't because Robbie is on my mind. My phone starts ringing and I regret answering it as the first thing I hear is yelling. Doug is going off on me about how I faked being sick and left him all alone at the deli. You need to calm down I tell him. No you need to stop lying to me Ste. I know how much you miss Brendan but you shouldn't be out there by yourself. This has nothing to do with Brendan. Stop lying to me Ste if it isn't about Brendan then what is it about some new bloke you met. Don't tell me you're drunk again. I couldn't deal with this right now so I hung up on him. I go to the room the nurses told me Robbie was in and made sure there are no nurses around his room. As I walk in my heart breaks at the sight. Robbie is even paler than he normally is if that's even possible and there are tubes in his nose. I take his hand in mine and lean in to kiss his forehead. You better wake up Robbie because you don't know how much I need you. I love you I finally confess. As soon as I say those words he opens his eyes and says that he loves me too.
