Jack had woken up with needles poked into his forearm, he's had this happen to him before. It used to happen to him a lot when he was younger. It was from all the summers him and his family had went to Lebanon. It got so hot and humid there that Jack would faint if he or the weather got to hot. He would often wake up in the infirmary in the small town of Mieh Mieh. His brother and sister sitting by his side while his mother and father talked to his Aunt Sha'ria who always worked to support her three children.

Jack realized he was in the Maryland General Hospital, he looked around his surroundings. There was an IV machine next to him on his right side and a tray of (Probably) cold food to his left. Jack pulled the table of food next to him, and looked at it. He dropped it in shock.

If he was at the hospital, that means that Alex was shot, that Alex's dad did almost kill his own son. Jack broke out into tears. He pressed the nurses call button and a nurse spoke

"yes, what can I help you with?"

"I... I need a nurse a doctor someone anyone now please pplease pl-pl-please?"

"I'll send someone right away sir."

A few minutes later, Jack was still crying when a doctor walked into his room.

"Hello Mr. Barakat. What seems to be the problem?"

"Wh-Where's A-Alex?" Jack said trying to wipe away the tears from his eyes.

"Oh, the older boy you came in with. He's on the third floor, I'm afraid that's all I know."

Jack paused for a moment."When can I leave this room, more importantly, when can I leave this floor? I need to see my Gaskank."

"We have you on a twenty four hour hold. We've called your parents they're out of the country we were informed by your sister May. So when you are let out tomorrow she will be here to sign the papers. I'm sorry you cannot see mister Gaskarth until tomorrow after your release.

Notes

Okay so what I'm doing is after this chapter I'm going to switch back to Alex, but that;s all for tonight I think I have to go to school tomorrow.
