All Chapters of Please Stay: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Xavier's P.O.V.The nurse finishes up and we both exit the room. I look at the seat Cole usually sits in, but he is not there. A bit of me feels sad, but there must be a reason, maybe he is on his way?The nurse notices it too."Oh your boyfriend is not here yet, do you want to wait for him?" She asks."Umm yeah I suppose so." I reply, feeling anxious."Okay, sit down I'll go get you some chips from the vending machine." She pats my back and leaves.I sit down.I feel extremely tired. I was looking forward to going to Cole's house and having a hot cup of chocolate with him, like we usually did after my treatments.But he'll be here soon and everything will be fine.The nurse comes back with a packet of crisps and a cup of water

Xavier's P.O.V.I climb the stairs and enter my 'new' bedroom. I cry at the sight. The window has been blocked with pieces of wood nailed to each other, the colour of the room is an off yellow colour, all my posters and things are gone. My bed still remained the same, it's like they hadn't touched it at all. This is good, I think this is where I last left my book that Cole - he - couldn't find. I grab the extra pens from inside my pillowcase. I rush to my pillow, I had never been more excited to take off a pillow case. My book and two pens fall to the ground. I still feel scared though. I don't know when my father will get home and what type of mood he'll be in. Usually he'd come home drunk and always smoking. Sometimes he would be so angry he would storm up to my room and shout at me for no particular reason. It hurt a lot.In movies and books, the

Xavier's P.O.V.I open my eyes. I don't remember anything. Am I in Cole's house?"Cole?" I call out.But no one responds.Maybe he is sleeping.I stumble up to my feet, and look around the room I am in. It's dark, but I can figure out that this is not Cole's room... it's mine. I can tell from the lonley ambience that has lingered since I can remember.But I stand there confused.I swear Cole had saved me and I was in living at his house. What am I doing back here?I look around and see a body on the floor.It looks like my father.I widen my eyes and all the memories come rushing back to me. The betrayal everthing. "Oh my God." I mumble. I ga

Cole's P.O.V.We arrive back home and enter the house. The whole family is already sleeping. My mum and I try to stay quiet as we walk to our own bedrooms. Both of us are still distraught, especially me."Bye mum." I say."Bye." She replies.We both enter our rooms. I lean against the back of the door and drop down to the floor."Why?" I mutter.I start sobbing uncontrollably into my hands.I grab my phone out and try to call him again, but there is no hope left in me. I've tried so many times before, I just can't think of it being able to work.It rings...And rings...And rings..."Hey this is Xavier, uh, leave a message at the beep. Beep." My eyes widen in surprise.

Xavier's P.O.V.Hal and I sit together. Him on the side of bed. The nurse comes in."Oh sorry if I'm interrupting anything." She immediately says."Oh no, it's fine." Hal responds getting off the bed and into the seat beside me."Okay, well, you are fine, we can keep you here longer, but it is up tp you. It only happened because it seemed like you were under stress before the incident, that's the only reason why it would happen. Unless you were exercising, that is another factor." She explains.Hal looks at me concerned."Yeah, okay." I say, staring straight ahead at the nurse trying to avoid Hal's concerned gaze."Alright. Now, do you have a place to stay for the night Mr..."She checks her clipboard.
