Later I went to the ships morgue and saw Eileen's corpse. I stared at her in tears and said why did this had to happen? Why?! I felt a hand on my shoulder and turned it was Jason he seemed worried but he put his hand on my shoulder and said I know it's hard to believe that we'll never see her again. I was so sad but my eyes felt heavy, tears streamed down my face, my head felt a sharp pain, my legs shook, I was running a very bad fever, and I began to breath hard and fall over  but I still needed to recover my brother was concerned about me and had to catch me as soon as I fell over he lifted up as I breathe harder. In a very worried way Jason saw me sweating and said oh no Austin you are getting very high fever you still need to rest for a bit. I'm sorry I whispered I just... I just needed to... my brother shushed me to cut me off and said try not to speak little brother you are already sick as it is. He turned to Eileen's corpse and said I guess things won't be the same without you Eileen goodbye. As he said goodbye I closed my eyes, cried in tears, Jason closed his eyes, and put the sheet over the corpse. My heart was breaking in two to walk my brother had to carry me back to the infirmary and lay me down on the bed. I'll be right back Jason said NO WAIT!!! I yelled in a whisper as I tugged on his jacket PLEASE CAN YOU STAY!? I DON'T WANT TO BE ALONE!! Jason was really worried as I was crying but he only cared about me and didn't want me to be all alone so he took off his tennis shoes and lay down next to me as I lay down on the bed just like we did when we were little kids I had a flashback of me as a 1 year old and Jason as a 3 year old whenever I have nightmares and wake up from them as I was crying in my crib Jason would come in and ask did you have another nightmare Austin? I would just look at him in my crib in tears frighten of my childhood demons Jason opened up the crib as I crawled back 2 inches from the bars sucking my thumb. He always opens the crib without mom or dad knowing he picks me up out of my crib and said with a smile don't worry Austin you can sleep with me as long as you sleep with me no monster will scare you I promise. What he said made me feel safe that night I fell asleep with him as he tucked me in he fell asleep too as he hugged me in his arms the next morning mom and dad found us sleeping together in Jason's old race car bed they were amazed yet very moved that Jason was letting me sleep in the bed when I have nightmares That part ended the flashback as I saw Jason asleep holding my hand it was like my heart was healed with a bandage a leaned closer still sweating as I put the covers on him and wondered to myself is he still bothered by the summer school incident as much as I am? We had roles but Jason was unhappy his hole sometime apart plan was a bad idea he couldn't get me off of his mind either I felt like this trip has taken a trip to the deepest pits of a  world pool I closed my eyes and went to sleep when I woke up Jason was gone already all there is was my clothes, a note and midnight blue baseball cap. I put my clothes and my cap on backwards like I always wear it then I read the note it said: Austin by the time you read this you realize that we are almost home you might want to meet me at the docks okay? Everyone else is already there later Jason. I went to the dock as fast as could but tripped and as got up I saw Jason standing next to the emergency lifeboat he saw me smiled, and said oh good you're awake come on lets go Gen still waiting on us. He grabbed my hand and ran off with me as we got to the docks I realized that we really are almost home. As we reached home all of the parents including ours were very relieved accept for Eileen's who were very sad to hear the news
