Sorry for the massive delay again! I'm terribly unreliable lately! Hopefully this chapter makes up for it.

Special thanks to MyOhMy for reminding me people want to read this! <3

Enjoy!



Once again I woke up in bed, this time I had Jeremy lying next to me with his arm hung over my chest while he slept, I smiled and held him close. I've always had a soft spot for Jeremy although he was a year or so younger we were always friends and he always hung out with brad and I and never got too annoying! As my eyes were adjusting to the light I noticed that Brads parents weren't in the room so I sat up to try and look for them, this woke Jeremy up and made him jump when he realized he was hugging me. He apologized for hugging me.. If only he knew what Brad and I had been up to! I laughed it off and just hugged him for a while. I finally got around to asking where his parents were and found out they had gone to stay at the hotel but he wouldn't let me stay alone and after some convincing they and the doctors let him stay. It did feel good to have someone to wake up to but I hated that person not being Brad.

We both got out of bed and walked over to Brads bed, we both held his hand in silence for a few minutes when I felt Jeremy hug me tight and cry, I couldn't help but cry with him and apologize a hundred times, he pulled back and stared into my eyes and told me it wasn't my fault and I had to stop thinking that. For the first time I started to believe that.

I looked at Brad again and without thinking I lent down and kissed him and told him I love him, I told him he has to wake up soon and that I'll be waiting every day until he does. Jeremy just watched and looked at me knowingly and mumbled "finally"

Soon enough Brads parents came back in and they actually looked happy, this worried me for some reason. It didn't seem right. They asked me if I could tell them about the accident, I didn't want to but I knew they wanted to know so I agreed. I told them about the bus, about brad saving my life. I told them it should have been me in the bed which made Jeremy hit me, I told them how sorry I was. They looked dumbfounded for a second and then asked about the rest of the story, my heart sunk, I didn't now what they knew or wanted to know. I looked at Jeremy nervously and he smiled. Why the heck is everyone smiling?! Brads mum interrupted my thoughts and said "What about you, and you saving Brads life, we want to hear that too" I blushed and insisted I did nothing of the sort and thats when my coach and a few of the team walked in and continued the story for me.

We all sat for a while talking about Brad and soccer and the whole trip (leaving out selected parts!) For some reason I felt uneasy telling all the stories because I wanted Brad to have some left to tell. I got up and walked over to Brad and held his hand again, I felt Jeremy come beside us again and smiled. Jeremy asked how long we have been together which caught me off guard and I couldn't say anything but "How did you know?" His reply.. "Gaydar dude!"I laughed and squeezed Brads hand and he squeezed back. Jeremy was the one to yell this time and everyone rushed bedside. There was about seven people all trying to talk to him and tell him to wake up when the doctors came into the room, we were pushed aside while they did some checks or something and they told us he looked like he was getting better and may wake up soon! The room erupted like we had won the world cup and everyone hugged everyone and we all stood waiting for the moment to happy. Eventually we all had to sit or get food and drinks. The team couldn't stay any longer and they all had to leave, we hugged and told them we will let them know as soon as anything happens.

I was really weak again and started to feel sick, I needed to shower but I honestly didn't know if I could stand that long. Like he was reading my mind Jeremy sat next to me and jumped up dramatically telling his parents just how bad I smelt and faked throwing up, I had to laugh but it also got me paranoid so I agreed and said I was going to shower. As I stood up I stumbled and once again Jeremy came to my rescue. He laughed and asked if I wanted help in the shower, I laughed it off and told he he cant handle seeing me naked! I walked another few steps and fell again, this time he was more serious and told be he was going to help, I looked at his parents and they nodded so we headed into the shower.
