{39}
The four of us were sitting at lunch when Roger ran over. "What's going on?" I asked him. "Callie, Tyler's being rushed to the hospital." Roger exclaimed. "What! What happened?" I asked as I collected my things. "Diane heard a thud in his room and found him passed out on the floor, we need to get to the hospital." Roger says as I stand up. "I can't just leave my pod." I said. "We'll be okay. I promise you I will not leave the tower. Please be safe and update us when you find out what's wrong and how he's doing, please." Gina says as she hugs me. "I promise, I'll update you as soon as I can." I cried in her arms.
She pulled away as I wiped my tears. I was terrified on what could happen or what the cause was. Roger lead me to his car and helped me in.

The two of us ran in. "Excuse me, what room is Tyler Gossard in?" I asked as we stood in front of the receptionist. "Can I ask your relations?" She asked. "I'm his father, and she's his girlfriend." Roger said. She nodded and pulled his files up. "Room 233, third floor." She answered. "Thank you!" We both exclaimed before running towards the elevator and pressing on the third floor. I bit at my nails as we went up. "I'm nervous." I confessed. "He's strong, I'm sure he's okay." Roger says, but I can tell he's scared too. The door opens and we fly out to searched for 233
"231, 232, 233, 234-. 233!" I exclaimed as I found it. Roger joined beside me as I stared at the door. "I'm scared to open it." I confessed again. He nodded as he pushed the door open. My blue eyes landed on Tyler's lifeless frame on the bed. Tears streamed down my face, harder than before.
"Please tell me he's okay." I cried as I stood beside him. My hand slid into his cold hand. "The doctor is running-." Diane started, but the door opened. The doctor stepped in. "We got the results to the tests." He nodded as he stood at the end of the bed.
"Is he okay?" I asked as I looked down at my gorgeous boyfriend. "He just has the flu." He nods. "Why did he pass out then?" Roger asks as Diana brushed hair out of Tyler's eyes. "He's severely dehydrated." The doctor says. I let out a sigh of relief.

After the doctor left, I brought a chair up beside Tyler's bed and fished my phone out of my bag. My thumbs typed a message to the pod group chat, telling them he's okay.
Sasha was asleep on the couch, while Roger and Diane were right next to her with the baby. I put my phone away and looked up at Tyler. I stood up and kissed his forehead before grabbing my wallet. "I'm going to grab us some food. What do you guys want?" I asked. "Do you have a driver's license?" Roger asked. "Crap, I have so much on my mind I forgot about that." I groaned as I sat down again.
"I'm going to the gift shop, I need to relax. He's going to be okay." I told them. The two of them nodded. "I'll be back." I softly told Tyler as I kissed his cheek one last time before exiting the room. I took the elevator down to the first floor and went to the gift shop. It was getting late, so I was wondering where I was going to sleep tonight. I'll sleep on that chair tonight, I'm sure I'll be fine.
I entered the gift shop and looked around at all the gifts. "Callie?" I heard Gina ask. "Gina!" I exclaimed as I saw her standing there with the rest of the pod. I ran into their arms and hugged them tightly. "How is he?" Lizzie and Eric asked. "He's still unconscious, but they think he's going to be okay. He was severely dehydrated and he has the flu, I already said that in the group chat, sorry." I said before rubbing my temple. Gina gently rubs my back.
I collect my self and look around. "Why were you guys down here?" I asked them as I searched for a teddy bear or something. "We wanted to get Tyler something." Lizzie says. I nod in response as I finally found some teddy bears. The four of us walked over and searched through them until we found one that I thought he would like. It was a brown teddy bear with a red heart attached to his little hands. I decided I was going to get Diane, Roger, Sasha, and the baby something. I got Diane some flowers since she deserves it, Sasha a blanket, Roger a coffee mug since he likes Coffee and I don't know him that well, and the baby a smaller teddy bear.
"I'm getting this for him." I nod to my self as I turned to the pod while holding out the larger bear. They nodded and searched for themselves. Gina found some flowers, while Eric and Lizzie found replicas of Tyler's favorite cars. We all purchased our gifts and exited the shop.
"His hand is cold when I hold it, it makes me sad." I said to them as we entered the elevator. "I can hold your hand!" Gina jokes. I laugh as I turn to her. "Thanks for making me laugh." I softly said. "It's what best friends do." She smiles as she side hugs me again. The elevator doors open, so we pull apart and walk out.
I lead them to Tyler's room and walk in. Tyler's still unconscious on the bed. My instincts lead me to Diane and Roger in the corner. "I got this for you guys." I smiled as I handed them their things. "You didn't have to do that." Diane smiles with tears in her eyes. "What happened? Did something happen while-." I started, but she hugged me. "No, nothing happened. I'm just very appreciative of you." She says. I hug her back.
After we pull away, I lay the blanket over Sasha and pass the small teddy bear to Roger. Roger smiles at me before placing it next to the baby. I turn to the bed, which was holding my boyfriend. The pods gifts were placed on a nightstand next to his bed. "And this is for you, I don't know if you can hear me, but I hope you do." I softly said to Tyler as I placed the teddy bear in his free arm.
I placed a kiss on his forehead before sitting down on the chair. "Is anyone hungry, I know Callie is but are you guys?" Roger asks as he stands up. I tuned out the rest of the conversation. The door shutting behind Roger and the Baby broke me out of my thoughts.
"I miss his eyes." I told Diane as she stood up and joined me on the other side of Tyler. She nodded softly as she pressed a kiss to his forehead. "When do you think he'll wake up?" I asked. "Soon, hopefully." She says. I nod and lay my head against the chair.
