| Chapter 13 �AJ, what are you doing here?� Howie asked surprised, opening the door wider so that AJ may come in. AJ just stormed in and went to the living room. Gasping as he saw all who was there. The guys and Nicks family was sitting scattered around the room, chatting silently to one another. �What the Fuck.� AJ said. Everyone looked, up, startled to see AJ> �Why the fuck didn�t you come?� �AJ...� Kevin started. �No, I want to know why the fuck you didn�t come to see Nick today. Today was his Birthday. He wanted you people to share that with him. SO why they fuck didn't you come!� AJ shouted, his face was bright red with anger. �We couldn�t.� Jane said softly from the corner of the room. � we couldn�t stand to see him. To see his misery and sadness.� Tears were falling form her face. AJ stood there and thought about it for a minute. Somewhat understanding why. But visions of the earlier events with Nick quickly took over without hesitation. �You nearly killed him today.� AJ said, slowly and deathly silent. �w-what?� Brian asked, concert for his friend growing. �You nearly killed him. He was getting better. He was feeling loved and useful. He began to want to live again.� AJ said, a smile on his face, and tears in his eyes as he thought fondly of how well Nick was getting...but his smile faded as he continued. �but you destroyed him again. All he wanted was to see you. To tell you in person that he was getting better. That he loved you all. But you didn�t come. He waited by that window all day long. But you didn�t come. And he tried to kill himself again, feeling he was unloved and worthless again, because his best friends and family didn�t come to his birthday party. Everyone was deathly silent. Nobody knew what to say. AJ just nodded. �I hop you are Happy.� He said quietly before walking away and back to his care. Back in the house, everyone was still quiet. Thinking to themselves. �Why didn�t we go?� Chapter 14 Chapter 12 Table Home |
