Clay paled as he thought for a moment. No, definitely before that. I don't think I ate what I ordered at the hospital...holy s---.. Clay nervously ran a hand through his hair and sat down on the floor next to the couch.
-
"Clay?" Nick said. "You okay?"
-
"Y-yeah, I'm fine." Clay lied.
Karl glanced up at Nick and sighed. -
"Hey, come sit on the couch," Nick said, patting the couch next to him.
-
"Okay," Clay said quietly. He slowly got up from the floor and sat on the couch. He looked distant, to say the least. I wonder how long this could go on-
-
"Whats wrong," Nick said softly after watching Clay for a moment.
-
"Nothing's- Nothing's wrong." Clay mumbled. I could actually starve...
"Liar." Karl protested. -
'C'mon," Nick said gently. "Please talk to me."
-
"I'm just worried about George. And I-" Clay paused for a moment. "And I haven't eaten in days. I lied about eating before picking him up." clay gestured down the hallway toward his friend's room.
Karl's eyes widened. "So you haven't eaten since...half a sandwich at the beach!?" He said, shocked. -
"Alright," Nick stood up. "First order of business, let's get you something to eat."
-
Clay knew fighting his best friend at this point would be useless. So he nodded slowly and gazed up at him. "I'm sorry" He whispered.
-
"It's okay," Nick said quietly, trying to remain level-headed. "C'mon, into the kitchen. What do you want?" He called as he walked into the kitchen.
-
"I don't know." Clay said back as he got up and followed Nick.
Karl got up as well, and he rushed toward the kitchen and hugged Nick from behind. -
"Hi," Nick said with a quiet chuckle, ruffling Karl's hair. "Hm- maybe like, a PB&J? Does that sound good?"
-
"Yeah." Clay said sadly.
"Hello. Stop taking care of everyone else." Karl said simply.
