Margaret sat on the couch; her son lay on her lap sleeping restlessly. Sighing she stroked his hair softly, poor Gerard had barely slept all night. When she had arrived he had still been at the hospital. Jade had been stitched up, and then drugged up, now she was sleeping soundly. When she arrived he was sat holding her hand, he was just watching her sleep. It had taken some persuading to get him to leave, but finally he was in the hotel.
Margaret stared at the phone; the hospital had promised they would call when she came round which could be any length of time so it was pointless waiting. Her heart was close to bursting, all her emotions had hit her when she was jade in a hospital bed, and then having the story retold to her she broke down again. Jade was part of the family now. Then even more heart wrenching was her poor son, who wasn’t himself at all. He wasn’t eating; barely talking he just wanted to sit with her all day and night. Margaret had given up trying to persuade him to be organised, and had taken it upon herself to sort out his affairs. Doug had called wondering why he hadn’t attended an interview that night; he had been very kind and concerned. Agreeing to do Gerard interviews himself, and had insisted on sending a huge bouquet of flowers to Jades side. Doug had also promised to take care of Gerard’s image while he was busy, it wouldn’t do for the press to catch wind and upset him further. Margaret was deeply grateful, but then had the nasty talks of rooting through Gerard’s phonebook until she found the number of Jades parents. As much as she despised them they had to know. Margaret found Jades mother to be very likeable, and again her heart went out as the woman sobbed. She was on the other side of the world but Margaret wanted to hug her and hold her. In the end she agreed to keep the poor woman updated. Gerard shifted on her knee and mumbled something. Opening his eye he looked blearily around and sat up.
”Any news?” his voice was gruff and cold, she watched him light a cigarette.
”Now you know I would have woken you. Shall we get some breakfast I’m half starved.”
”No I have to go back there”
”No your not, your getting a shower and getting some food, then you can go back. You’re not making yourself ill son.” Margaret watched his face. He looked so confused. When his eyes shined, she knelt in front of him.
”Let it out son, you’ll feel better for it”
Gerard closed his eyes and held them shut, two tears slowly escaped down his face, and Margaret pulled him to her, holding him as he wept.
”I feel so useless, I should have been there with her, why wasn’t I?”
”Don’t you dare blame yourself; it’s not your fault it couldn’t be helped. The good lord has let her stay here hasn’t he? Be thankful”
”The good lord” Gerard spat out, “If he is so good then why..”
Margaret put her finger over her sons lips, “Don’t ask me that again, he works in mysterious ways son. Now lets get breakfast?”
”Yeah ok.”

AS hard as they tried the incident leaked out anyway, and suddenly they were all over the papers once more. Only this time it was flashing about a brutal stabbing. Every time Gerard saw a paper he had flashbacks of that night and he felt sick. Doug could only think that a nurse or doctor had a wad of money and betrayal on their conscious. What made it worse, the man who had stabbed her was also splashed about the papers, so Gerard had to look at his face everyday. It seemed the man was just desperate for money an had lashed out he was in jail right now but was remorseful. Gerard didn’t want to hear it and was glad when he saw his mother pull a face and throw the offending paper in the bin. They sat in the hospital listening to the slow beep of Jades heart monitor, Gerard set his breath by that machine he was terrified of it stopping.
”Right I’m going to get some fresh air and some coffee, you want to come?” Margaret knew the answer would be no, but thought it was worth trying anyway, as she walked down the corridor she hoped Jade would wake soon. She had been sleeping silently for 2 days now, sleep for Gerard was a luxury, it seemed he never bothered.

Left alone Gerard squeezed Jades hand and looked about the room. He had brought her a grey tatty ‘Me to You’ teddy bear with a little bandage; Doug’s flowers sat on the bedside table. Plus a huge pile of get well soon cards from Gerard’s fans, which he had been touched by. Gerard leaned forward and stroked Jades face. He cleared his throat.
”Well, while your just sleeping away. Not a lot has been happening. I called Jake he said Tink ate his goldfish” Gerard smiled at how hysterical Jake had been about the fish, when Gerard had finally been able to tell him about Jade he had gone into further hysterics. “He says he has been taping ‘Sex in the City’ for you and you have to wake up. You do have to wake up you know.”
Gerard swallowed a lump in his throat, and stroked her hand softly, “I can’t be a single parent. Tink needs you. God I need you. Jade f you can hear me please come back. I cant do this without you”
Gerard jumped as he felt her hand squeeze his, her eyes fluttered open and she lay looking at the ceiling, trying to take in her surroundings.
”What can you do without me?” she rasped, looking at him she pulled a face, “Not colour code I see”
Gerard looked down at his clothes and pulled a face, then he slammed a button which brought the staff running down the corridor, leaning over her kissed her.
”Don’t move yet, wait.”

As the staff checked her over, she was soon half sitting up and drinking water slowly. Gerard was stood outside talking to the doctor.
”Well she seems to be recovering, it seems the blade missed her stomach which makes it a lot easier, she will be in pain in her side for a few weeks naturally. But luckily it missed all vital organs. With the morphine and food and drink she should be fine soon. Close call in the beginning though”
Gerard rolled his eyes, “Your telling me” shaking the doctors hand he turned back into the room. Margaret had returned and was sitting talking to Jade, passing on messages from her mother and so on. Jades eyes lit up when she saw Gerard.
”Can I go home?”
”Of course you cant, your not even nearly ready to leave yet” Margaret was outraged, “You need to be here where they can look after you.”
”You can leave in a few weeks Jade” Gerard kissed her cheek once more, lingering by her neck and laying a kiss on there as well.
”God I hate hospitals. So I died then?”
”Yes” Gerard glared at her, “Don’t ever do that to me again!”
”Well I didn’t mean too, they obviously weren’t working on me fast enough. I must have got bored”
”I believe that, your attention span is shorter than mine”
”Bloody hell” Margaret quipped in, “That’s short. Right your boring me. I’m going back to the hotel to get some sleep. Ill visit soon Jade” Margaret kissed Jade and hugged her gently then squeezed Gerard’s shoulder as she left.
Jade smiled, the pain in her side was unbearable but she didn’t want to be put back to sleep yet, holding out her hand she pulled Gerard to her. He perched on the side of the bed, and leaned forward and placed a soft kiss on her lips.
”I missed you so much” he uttered, “I really thought I had lost you”
Jade stroked his shirt, “You wish, I’m not going anywhere, even in death”
”Do you want anything? Books? And so on?!”
”Yeah, oooo I want to read the new Harry potter book. Don’t look at me like that, I never get the chance, at least now I can”
”One children’s book it is then!” he mocked.
”Hey adults can read it too”
”Of course they can, we can read as well. We can read ABC books! It doesn’t mean we should”
Jade pushed him away, “Be gone slave, I want my book”
Gerard knew visiting time was over, and was tired of fighting with the nurses to stay longer so he kissed her once more.
”You stay here” he laughed “I’ll be back in a few hours”
”Oh that’s unless they have a shop downstairs, I’m sure I can give a cleaner 20 quid to push me down there!”
As Gerard left the room Jade doubled over in pain and cried out for the nurse and more morphine. Smiling with relief as the needle entered her arm, Jade lay back down and dozed back into pain free sleep.
