<Charlie Hutson POV>
Waking up in a white room was weird, like you're dead.
Am I dead?
"Good morning Charlie." Someone said startling me.
Looking around I saw nothing, "Hello?"
"Top corner." They said, making me look at the top corners of the room.
I saw one to the right of me and crawled over to it a bit.
"Hi." I said waving my hand up to it.
They laughed, "Hi Charlie."
"Who are you?" I asked curiously
"My name is Felix." They said to me
"Hi Felix, I'm Charlie." I responded.
"I know Charlie, now how are you feeling?" Felix asked
"Fine, where am I?" I asked
"The rehab room, they asked me to watch you for a bit. Since you kil-Never mind." Felix said, trying to change the subject.
"So how long am I in here?" I asked
"A few weeks I'm afraid." He said to me
"Where's mom?" I asked, laying down again.
"Mom? Oh! Kiley. She's around...here...somewhere." He said slowly
"Oh ok...so what do I do in the meantime?" I asked him
"Well, anything, I'm just here to watch." Felix said to me.
"Can I ask you questions?" I asked to him
"Sure, why not." He said back
For a while we just asked questions about each other until mom jumped in.
"Hi Charlie." Mom said
I waved at the camera, "Hi mom!"
"How are you doing so far Charlie?" She asked
"I'm fine mom. How's Jason?" I asked
She was silent for a moment, "He's good...he's good..." She said slowly
"Does he know?" I asked, referring to Oscar.
Again she was silent, "Yes, he does Charlie."
"He doesn't want me anymore does he?" I asked, hanging my head in shame.
"He does Charlie, he really does. Sure he wasn't expecting this, but he still wants you with him." She assured me.
It didn't reassure me, so I started to cry.
The 1 door from the room opened and mom came running in to comfort me.
I was rubbing my eyes as tears flowed, while mom held me and slowly rocked me.
"I'm sorry mom! I'm sorry! I didn't mean to do it..." I sobbed into her shirt.
She gently stroked my hair, trying to sooth me.
It worked after a while, and I paid in her lap while she rocked me still.
"I'm sorry mom..." I whispered
"I know you are, but there's nothing I can do." She told me
"What about Dean?" I asked
"He's also been put in a rehab room for a bit. Since he's a bit on the more...extreme side." She said to me
