They say happiness comes in many shapes and sizes.
It comes in many different ways too.
But do surprises normally come with love?
Chapter 1
Midnight Sky
Tala's POV
It eats my up the way he doesn't speak.
Counting the amount of times Kai has spoken, I would have enough money to buy a coke and some chips.
They said it was shock; I have other opinions in mind.
Now a day's he'll just stare out the window, looking as everything passes by, it eats me from inside.
Spencer and Ian look after the abbey; they want to turn it into an orphanage, to put some light in the dreary place.
Bryan helps me with Kai.
He say's Kai talks in his sleep, sometimes he'll scream or cry, I worry about him, he's like my brother.
The Bladebreakers come here every year for a reunion, the last one Kai wasn't in the mood and locked himself in the bathroom, sometime I think he's scared of it all.
Sitting here, I can tell, he's frightened, he's asleep, and he's had a fever all night, sick as a dog.
Bryan enters the room, carrying two hot mugs of coffee, I see the steam rise.
Sitting down in the other chair he takes a sip, looking over Kai, I take a sip myself, suddenly Bryan speaks, "You need sleep Tala, I'll look after him"
I shake my head, Kai's like a brother too me, and I'll never leave his side…never!
Seeing as I wasn't going to budge Bryan settles down, "How's is fever been"
"It broke two hours ago, I'm still worried though, Kai doesn't get sick like this very often", I see his look and I add, "not like this"
He shakes his head and say's, "when was the last time he was sick like this, do you remember", I nod I do.
"It was when we were six, Boris gave him a new drug, he got terribly sick, he almost died, and then there was his appendix that was when he was seven"
Bryan nods, we all remember Kai's appendix episode.
The apartment door opens and we heard Spencer laughing and Ian laughing too, getting up I go to tell them to shut up.
"How is he", they ask
"Not too good, at least the fever broke", there's a silence and suddenly Bryan yells.
We run into the room and see him at Kai's chest, "He's not breathing right, we should get him to the hospital", and Ian rushes to call.
At the Hospital
I'm pacing up and down the waiting room, Bryan's got his head in his hands and Spencer and Ian are trying to stay calm, no luck there.
"You're going to run a hole in the floor if you don't stop", Bryan sounds irritated, but I carry on, I need to keep myself occupied.
"Tala, I'm warning you", he's angry now, but I still carry on, suddenly I feel as if a bulldozer ran over me.
I'm against the wall with Bryan facing me, Spencer's trying to say something, "Hey guy's calm down, and we're all worried about Kai, and we can't lose our heads now".
Sitting down again, we wait even longer, damn I can't keep still, when a doctor come up to us.
"Are you here for a Mr Kai Hiwatari", I nod and we stand.
"Your friend has a chest infection, but as he was draining the fluid from his chest we lost him in a coma".
Oh god no, this cant be happening, NO!
Sensing this doctor clears his throat and say's, "But you may see him, this way", and we follow him.
"One at a time pleases".
We stand at his door, "We should call the breakers or at least Mr Dickinson", Ian say's.
"Who'll go first", Bryan asks, they all look at me and I nod, opening the door, hearing the other's walk to the phone.
He's on life support.
There's a heart monitor, and a brain wave monitor, there's three drips, and a mask over his mouth, and his lips are slightly parted, his eyes closed.
I gulp and pull a chair closely to the bed, hold his hand and stare.
I don't know what to do, but they say if you talk to someone in a coma it encourages them to wake up, so here it goes.
"I'm worried Kai" I'm silent before saying more, "you never spoke of your troubles, and I wish you would. We all do, we're all worried, even, even Voltaire".
My grip is tighter on his hand, "I wish you could hear me, because Kai, because I don't know what life would be like without you".
With the Others
Bryan dialed the number, his hands shaky.
Putting the phone to his one ear he waits for someone to pick up.
"Hello, Max Tate speaking"
"Hi, um, can I speak to Ray"
Bryan heard voices and then Ray, "hello Ray here, who's this"
Bryan gulped and said, "Bryan, um…Ray, something's happened to Kai"
Bryan heard Ray suck in some air quickly, "Ray, Kai's in a – he's in a…uh Ray, Kai's in an f coma".
"What!"
"That's right, he was um sick and then we found out he had a chest infection and when draining the fluid he slipped, into a coma".
"I'm coming" and Ray hung up.
"Their coming to see him", he told them.
I'm out Kai's room and Bryan's in there, sitting in the hospital garden I look up.
I know Kai wont give up, I know he couldn't.
He's a fighter, I just wish, I could do something for him, something, that would open him up.
There's stars shine brightly, the moons full, no clouds are seen it's as clear as my thoughts, for someone special.
Well what do you all think?
