Life's Passing

Ashley's POV

I sat in the hard plastic chair beside Andy's bed and waited for the other guys to get here. There was a moment when we first got here that he was shouting but that subsided. None of it made since. 'Get away from her?' There wasn't even a girl here. The Doctors did and x-ray and found that non of his organs and been pierced but it was still going to be a long way to recovery. one of his muscles was torn open by the bullet and once more surgeons arrived in the morning they would be able to operate then.

Andy laid still in his bed. His eyes closed for the longest time in days. Hopefully this will help him get the sleep he needed. His eyes were blue underneath and there was no color in his face. He was still though and that made me feel better.

Jake rounded the corner first worried out of his mind no doubt followed by Jinxx, John, and CC trailing behind. They all surround Andy's bed as I caught them up to what the doctors were planing to do. "So it really was a gun shot?" CC asked weirdly. I shook my head yes. "CC, the cops back at the club said it was. Remember there looking over the security tapes to see who it might have been. Are you alright man?" Jinxx asked looking to CC. He walked over to the wall and leaned against it only to slide down to his feet. "No, I think I saw him. I mean it could have been him. Shit, its my fault! I could have done something." CC cried out sitting in the floor with his arms wrapped around a hoodie. Jinxx went over to sit beside him. "What do you mean you know who it was?" Jinxx asked. "There was this guy there he was wearing a black hoodie but I couldn't see his face. I just thought he might have been cold." CC started crying. " Now Andy might die." None of us had admitted that thought to our selves since this happened. He could die. Jinxx pulled CC into a hug and tried to calm him down. At that time we heard running coming from down the hall. Juliet rounded the corner and nearly knocked Jake over trying to get to Andy.

"Is he going to be okay?" She asked with tears streaming down her face. I had to be honest with her. She was the kind of girl that didn't like false hope. "We don't know yet." She nodded and took her hand in his. I stood up and gave the one chair in the room to her.

A nurse walked in at that time. "Okay, only one of you can stay here with him tonight. You can come back tomorrow when he goes into surgery at 8 am." She spoke very kindly to us. I nodded and she left the room to attend to other patience. "I'll stay with him." Juliet said before anyone else could. "Okay, if anything changes you have my number, and we got the hotel room across the street come over if you get too tired." She nodded at me and I gave her a hug before I followed the other guys out. Juliet was good for Andy I really liked her.

CC's POV

I was going fucking crazy. Jinxx said there was no way that I could have known what was going to happen, but still. We got to the hotel room and I walked in and instantly started crying again. I couldn't loose Andy he was one of the first people who had been nice to me in such a long time when we meet. He lead me into this world of happiness. He helped me find my life again when I didn't know how I could make it from day to day.

Jinxx said that he was going to stay with me tonight to make sure that I was alright. I was great full. I didn't do sad very well. I was such a girl whenever anything bad happened. Cry my eyes out, eating all the food, and by the time the morning comes I'll either be higher than a kite or drunk off my ass. That was my problem. Drugs. As if that I should even be worrying about that right now!!

Once we got in the door Jinxx and I sat all of our luggage on the chairs that were in the rooms and then Jinxx turned to me. "Okay, CC I know how you are. You can do whatever you need to to calm down, but it has to be in this room only and you have to be better in the morning. You need to be strong by then. At least, for Juliet's sake." He said to me. "Oh, Thank God!!!" I nearly hugged Jinxx before rummaging through my suit case to find my bag. Jinxx followed me to the beds and spoke again. " There's one more condition. You have to share with me." I laughed and nodded sitting in the center of my bed.

I pulled out my papers and laid one down on the bed. Then I pulled out my weed and rolled one up. I lit the blunt and took in a huge puff, holding it in as long as I could then passed it to Jinxx. I let the smoke swirl around in my lungs then exhaled. "Fuck." I said forgetting how strong it was and slightly laughed to myself. Jinxx did the same "Holy shit." he said as the smoked started to fill the room. We laughed together and I leaned back on my bed. Jinxx came to sit beside me so we could pass the j easier. "Hey remember that time we were doing a show and some girl pulled Andy's pants down." I said laughing. The rest of the night went like that. Remembering all the crazy things that we had done together. Eventually I started to feel sleepy after crying all evening. I climbed under my blankets and Jinxx went back over to his bed and set an alarm for the next day. I was glad that I was high. I didn't have to think that I might loose a friend tomorrow.
