Chapter 22:

Finn had been moved on to the ward only 30 minutes ago; he still didn't feel any better. He'd been told that he'd meet some staff in a bit, but he didn't know want to. Finn had lost control of his life, he was to blame for Val. He always had been and always would be.

"Right then, this is yours", James said handing a Finn a coffee and a sandwich. "I'm not hungry", Finn said rolling over in his bed, he didn't deserve the coffee and sandwich just like Val didn't deserve to die. James sighed and sat down. "Pete and Ross have gone to collect your things, doctor reckons you'll be here for about 3 days", James said and Finn beat himself up inside.

Finn didn't want to be there and he didn't ask to be there, so he couldn't understand why he was there. As far as he was concerned everything that was happening was fine, because he deserved it.

James was worried about Finn. Every time the doctors had spoken to them he'd always take note of everything they said. He could tell they were worried; that was made certain by the fact they were keeping Finn in for a few days. He had been told that the doctors would be along in a few minutes, and he wanted them to hurry up.

The sooner they found out what was wrong with Finn, the sooner they could start to get him better. James just hoped that they would be able to get Finn better.

Finn lay back on his bed and sighed. Ross and Pete would be back any second and that meant that his talk with the doctors was even closer. He noticed they his dad had disappeared to go and speak to the doctors, probably one of the ones he was going to meet.

Finn was right, his dad was talking to Dr. Moore, Dr. Campbell about Finn and what was going to happen to Finn. "Now Mr. Barton, we don't want you to panic or be surprised if it turns out that Finn had an eating disorder", Dr. Moore said and James didn't quite understand.

"Hang on, what do you mean an eating disorder?", James asked, "I thought Finn just had some form of depression." Dr. Campbell nodded. "Yes depression can link into the eating disorders, but Finn's weight, blood pressure and heart rate suggest that he does have an eating disorder", he said and James shook his head.

"Look we aren't saying he definitely has one, we're just going by what the physical assessment says and what we've been told. Please try not to worry", Dr. Moore said. James nodded and smiled before walking away back to Finn.

When James got back he found Finn sitting on top of the covers with Pete and Ross sitting with him. It looked like they were having some sort of conversation. James hoped Finn would still be in a good-ish mood when the doctors spoke to him, otherwise thinks would go badly.

10 minutes later the Bartons were all gathered by Finn waiting for the doctors. They'd been over once and said they just had to pick up a file and then they'd be back. To be honest Finn didn't want them to come back but he knew he didn't have a choice. However when he'd briefly seen them, they looked alright.

Two male doctors, both looked late 20s maybe early 30s and they seemed like nice people. "Right them Finn, let's get started", Dr. Moore said as he arrived at Finn's bed along with Dr. Campbell.

"My name is Dr. Campbell but you can call me Luke and this Dr. Moore", he said pointing to Dr. Moore, "but you can call him Charlie." Finn nodded to show that he was listening but he didn't say anything. "We're both doctor's who specialize in adult health and the mental health of adult males", he said.

As he said this Finn flinched, he didn't want to be classified as having mental health. However he had a feeling that he already was being classified. Both doctors seemed nice, Luke was wearing black skinny jeans and a white shirt while Charlie was wearing a black shirt tugged into a pair of chinos.

"Finn recently we've noticed that your losing weight for no apparent reason", Luke said sitting down the bed. "Now do you have any idea why this might be?", he asked. "We know that you haven't had an easy time lately, we just think it might be connected", Charlie suggested and Finn shook his head.

"No there not connected", Finn said. When he said this it intrigued the doctors, Finn seemed sure they weren't connected but all the other clues pointed towards them being connected. "How do you know that Finn?", Luke asked wanting to know more.

"I just do", Finn replied, cursing himself saying what he said. "Look Finn we don't want to worry you but we think that you have an eating disorder", Luke said. Finn's eyes widened, Ross and Pete looked at each other both shocked by what Luke has just. Finn couldn't have an eating disorder, he just couldn't.
