Becoming Stronger together

*Pats' Room*

"It's Christian. He almost passed out again. He has something seriously wrong with him and I think you need to put your brother into consideration and not just your kid." Jon said before he walked out and shut the door behind him.
Pat got up and walked after him, "Hold on. You're telling me I don't give a shit about my brother? That's the biggest lie I've ever heard in my life! I would die for my brother!"
"Then why don't you start showing it! All you do is yell at him, whether you're sober or drunk!" Jon yelled back.
They were now in the kitchen and Pat saw his brother sitting in the chair not looking too good, "Christian what's wrong?" he asked
"Nothing. Just tired." Christian said being honest, and he started to get a bloody nose out of nowhere
Pat gave him a weird look, "Hey can one of you guys remind me to call Kevin tomorrow?"
"Why?" Sharp asked
Pat walked to get Christian tissues, "Christian might have what Kev's mom had. I hope it's not, but if it is, we need to try and take care of it."
"What'd Kev's mom have?" Sharp asked
"I don't remember. That's why I gotta call Kev. Christian I want you to try and get some sleep." Pat said
Christian looked up at his brother and said, "Can you sing me to sleep like you used to?"
"Yeah." Patrick said

Kaner walked his brother to his room and made sure that his bloody nose went away. Once it stopped, Christian laid on his stomach trying to fall asleep and his brother started to sing like he used to when Christian was little. It didn't take long for him to fall asleep once Pat started singing. Pat got up and walked into Tristans' room and fell asleep in the rocking chair.

*The Next Morning*

The Team woke up at noon and cleaned up their mess. Shawzy went into Christians room to see what he wanted for breakfast but Christian wasn't there. He walked into Pats room and saw Gina sleeping. He then walked into Tristan's room and saw Pat and T sleeping. He walked out into the front room and over to Jon.

"Hey Tazer have you seen little man? I checked all the bedroom and couldn't find him?" Shaw asked
"I thought he was in his room. He isn't is the shower is he?" Jon asked
Shaw shook his head, "No he wasn't. I checked every room in your guys condo. He isn't here."
"I'll go look for him. Try calling him though." Jon said getting up

Jon walked into all the rooms and couldn't find Christian. Shaw ended up calling him but his phone was off. Jon went out on their balcony and saw Christian asleep on the lawn chair, with a blanket on.

"Bub wake up we're going to get food. Want to come with?" Jon asked
Christian sat up, "Can one of y'all get me advil or somethin for my head?"
"Yeah. Let's go inside and I'll get something for you." Jon said

They walked inside and Christian went to go change to get ready for breakfast. The team finished cleaning up and Jon got Christian advil. Once Christian was ready, Shaw, Seabs, Sharp, Crawford, Keith, Toews, and Bickell went to the local bakery just a few blocks away. Jon texted Pat to let him know that they had taken Christian down to the bakery to get him some breakfast.
Christian asked to leave breakfast so he could go hangout with a few friends and the guys didn't want to be over protective, so they let him.

*Christians' POV*

Since Brielle passed away I've been trying to take my mind off things, so I started hanging out with this girl from my school who plays hockey and lacrosse. She is drop dead gorgeous. We haven't really met each others parents/family, so I decided to text her and have her meet my brother and hangout with her today.

*End of POV*

*With Christian*

"Hey Christian!" Janessa ran up to Christian and hugged him
Christian picked her up, "Hey cutie! How has your day been?"
"Great especially since I'm with you now! How are you doing?" Janessa asked
"I'm alright. My brother wants to take me to the hospital because I got a bloody nose, but I'm perfectly fine." Christian said
"That stinks, but I want you to go to the doctors. If it's concerning your brother just let him get the confirmation that you're perfectly fine." She said
Christian looked at her, "You're such a girl"
"Psh what's that supposed to mean?" She said shoving him jokingly
"That you're a girl." Christian smiled, "Hey so what are you doing tonight?"
"Um I'm hoping that you'll tell me what I'm doing later" She laughed
"Wanna get dinner and go to the beach after?" Christian asked
She nodded her head yes and they headed to Pats and Jons condo.

*Home*

Christian and Janessa walked into the condo and everyone looked at them, "Can I help all y'all?" Christian asked
"No you're good. Just wondering where you were and who this is?" Pat asked
"This is my friend Janessa" He introduced her , "We were just walking around town." He said
"Hello Janessa!" The whole team yelled
Janessa smiled, "Hey! How are all of you?" She asked
Shaw stood up, "We're doing well how about yourself?"
"I'm doing great thank you for asking." Janessa said
Christian butted in, "So is it possible that I can borrow some money for the night Pat?"
"What do you need money for?" His brother asked
Christian looked at Janessa, "Dinner. We were thinking of going out somewhere. Any recommendations?" He said kissing Janessa
"Wait are you two dating?" Pat asked
Christian and Janessa looked at each other and laughed, "Hahaha no, we're just friends!" Janessa said.
The team gave them a weird look, "Uhm okay….. Where were you thinking little man?" Sharp asked
"Not sure. We wanted to go to the beach after so somewhere by the beach." Christian said
"If you want fancy, Joe's Seafood. If you want casual, The dock at Montrose Beach is pretty good." Sharp put out there
Christian looked at Janessa, "Fancy or casual?"
"Casual!" Janessa said
"Alright. May I have some money please?" Christian asked his brother
"Yeah. Uhm call me if you need anything and please don't be super late. I'm sure Janessas' parents don't want her out too late." He said handing him $100 dollars.
"Thanks! See all y'all later." Christian said before he left with Janessa

*With the Team*

"So they aren't dating?" Shaw asked confused
"I have no idea. They kissed but said they're just friends. Since when do "just friends" kiss?" Kaner said just as confused
"Hahaha you gotta problem on your hands don't yah Kaner!" Jon laughed
"Nope. As long as he's happy, treats her with respect and stops doing the stupid shit he was doing. Then I'm fine with him having her as a "girlfriend''." Kane said
Jon stood up, "So who wants to go to The dock at Montrose beach and maybe play a little beach football?"
"I'm all good with that!" Shaw, Sharp, Seabs, and Keith said
"Lets go!" They said and got up and left.
