Monday 7th Of October

Preston sits in his bed on the laptop scrolling through nearby hospitals, "Lukas where are you?" His eyes are closing and he forces them to stay open, "Preston? I'm coming in." She walks inside, "Yes mum?" She looks at him, "Do you need anything?" He thinks, "... Coffee." His mum looks at him and laughs, "Coffee, that's a good one." She walks out of his room and he watches the door close, he leans back and bangs his head on the bed. He holds the phone in his hands and calls another hospital, "Hello? I was wondering if you had a Lukas Chisiq, Were close friends." He waits patiently while she checks the system, "You do! No... Don't tell him I called, Sorry I have to go." Preston hangs up the phone in a hurry, he breathes heavily. "I should... I need to go visit him." He gets dressed and rushes out the house, he catches the bus outside to the hospital. "I'm here..." He walks inside and stares at the desk, "I'm..." He walks over, "Lukas... Chisiq." The woman nods, "Was you the boy on the phone?" Preston stares down at the floor, "Yes, I was." She smiles. "He could use someone right now." His vision becomes blurry, "Right." He takes the room number and starts looking for it, he finds the number and stares at the door. He steps back and looks at the piece of paper and back at the door, his legs stop moving. "I can't." He turns away taking the lift down pressing the button repeatedly rushing, when he gets in he stands staring. The doors open at the bottom but he freezes and looks up then speeds out the hospital and the woman watches him and she gets up. He stands at the bus stop panicking, 'Taylor, please. I need to talk to someone.' He gets on the bus and staring at the hospital until his phone vibrates. 'Sure, want to meet by school next Monday?' Preston holds his head, 'Thanks.' Preston leans his head on the bus timetables, awaiting the bus for his journey to end, picturing himself punching Lukas over and over again.
