Bullied By Colby Brock

Chapter 25: The Journal

Colby immediately stopped kissing your neck and looked up.

Colby: It's about time you woke up.

Ash: Before I explain anything, can I have some water?

Jen: Yeah, of course.

You went to find a nurse to ask for water. It wasn't too hard. There was a nurse about 10 feet from Ash's door.

Jen: Hey, Ash Jenkins is up, can you get him some water?

Nurse: Yeah, I'll be right back ma'am.

Jen: Thank you!

You walked back into Ash's room.

Ash: I'm so glad I woke up before you two went any further. I did not want to hear that.

You chuckled bit. Then you realized, Ash just said he could hear us while he was in a coma.

Jen: Wait, Ash, you could hear us?

Ash: Yeah, I heard everything.

He turned to Colby.

Ash: Bitch.

Colby laughed.

Colby: I love my brother.

The nurse came back with the water.

Nurse: Take care!

She said, while smiling at Colby.

Colby: We will, thank you.

Colby said in a monotone voice. She walked out and smiled at Colby one last time.

Jen: I found something for you Ash.

You grabbed the letter that had Ash's name and handed it to him. He opened it very carefully. He read it and a small smile spread across his face and a tear fell down his cheek. He wiped it away quickly.

Colby: You okay Ash?

Ash: Yeah. It said Jen would be my legal guardian...

Jen: Yeah, I just need to fill out some paperwork.

Ash: It also said some stuff about Peyton...

He said, looking at the hospital bed with a solemn expression.

Jen: Hey, 'they are not you', remember.

His head whipped up and looked at you. You realized you had made a big mistake.

Ash: What did you just say Jen?!

Jen: Nothing!

You said, shaking your head rapidly.

Ash: You went in my room didn't you?

Jen: I had to.

Ash shook his head and scoffed.

Jen: I found it on your floor. Will told me to get his journal, which was hidden under your bed.

Ash: Oh I knew about Will's journal. He would write in it when I left the house. I only ever read the first page. Oh yeah, nice picture by the way.

Colby: Picture?!

You had no clue what Ash meant by that.

Jen: I'm just as confused as you are.

Ash: Oh, you haven't read it yet. Well you're in for a treat.

You and Colby looked at each other. You quickly grabbed Will's journal and turned to the first page. It was a picture of you when you were younger. Will must have found it and printed it out.
