Alan's P.O.V

During the journey back to Base I fell asleep. When I woke up I was in the infirmary. Gordon was sat on the other bed reading a book and didn't look overly pleased to be in the room.
It took a while for him to realise I was awake but when he finally did he dropped his book in shock.
"Great your awake. Now Virgil can check you over and we can leave" Gordon announced with enthusiasm.
"Why does he need to check me over for us both to leave" I asked confused.
"Virgil decided it was probably best to keep us in the same room in order to avoid us sneaking off to see eachother" Gordon announced before rolling his eyes.
"Well they truly thought of everything didn't they" I groaned.
"Yep. I'm gonna call Virg down so we can get out of here and actually do something that is interesting" Gordon announced as he jumped off of his med bed.
"I say we just chill out in the lounge and okay some games" I announced as I sat up.
"Well we won't be allowed to do a lot else. Vigil said your not allowed to sleep for long periods of time due to the concussion so we have time over find something to do to keep you busy" Gordon announced  before pressing the buzzer that would alert Virgil.

We didn't have to wait long for Virgil to arrive in the infirmary. He quickly got on with checking me over as he knew that we didn't want to be in here any longer than we had to be.
Once we were given the all clear we shot out of the infirmary and pounced on to the couch. This was what we did everytime we were confined to the villa. The others knew what to the expect from us if we were ill or injured so it didn't come as a suprise to them when they walked in to find us flopped out on the couch leaving no room for them.

They made quick work of lifting our legs so that they could slip under them to take a seat on the couch. For the rest of the evening we took turns playing against each other on the gaming system.
Dad floated in and out of the room every few hours in order to keep an eye on us but didn't stick around long. Things were awkward between all of us with dad and he knew if he tried to join us things would only be more awkward.
I know dad wants to try and fix things with John and I but he also known that if he speaks to me without speaking to John first the things are only going to get worse and WW3 will begin.

I just wanted everything to be sorted out and for all of them to stop smothering me and treating me like a child who knows nothing. I know they are worried about me and want to keep me safe but I'm nearly 16 and I need to be treated like a 16 year old.

The road to fixing these issues was going to be a long one and the journey would begin tomorrow. But for now all I want to do is play with my brothers and relax after the day I've just had.
