Balz's pov

The doctor wanted to talk to Ricky so I shot Ahren a quick text.
"Hey man I need to talk to Ricky. This is important. Chris won't hurt him." Almost instantly I got a text back with a
"k. Where?"
"Uh the hospital. Ask for Cerulli and McKinnon when you get here." I responded, not knowing how he would take it
"Shit I'm on my way" he responded and I slipped my phone into my pocket.

Doctor McKinnon brought is into Chris's room and Mrs.Sola sat down next to him and started to stoke his hand. In the bed next to Chris's, there was a guy that looked he was 12. There was a few IV's sticking into his hands and there was an oxygen mask strapped over his face. I looked at the wipe off board across from him and saw a "Frank Iero" scribbled across the board.

Doctor McKinnon and Ricky came into the room a few seconds later.
"Ahren's waiting in the parking garage." Ricky said when he saw me. I nodded and took his hand, pulling him over to Chris's bed side.
"Wha-what happened." Ricky whispered.
"Over dose. Anyways your friend over here..."
"Josh" I said.
"Yeah Josh told me that you are Chris boyfriend and that you tried to kill yourself." The doctor stated flatly.

Ricky stared me in the eye as he thought of a response.
"Not intentionally." He said as he played with his sweatshirt sleeve.
"Whose that other person." Ricky said, trying to change the topic.
"Frank iero. Tried to kill himself too. On heavy sedatives right now. He woke up an hour or so ago. He had heavy blood loss." He stated as he put a hand on Ricky's shoulder.
"Are you allowed to give away that information" Mrs.Sola butted in.
"Basic information. His names on the board. You can see the sedatives IV. He has blood soaked bandages on his arms. He was the one who woke up in the room next to Chris." He said with a shrug.
"Hes 17! What he looks like he's 12!" I practically screamed. Doctor McKinnon nodded.

Doctor McKinnon brought Ricky into his office to do a partial strip search for any cuts. I wouldn't be able to handle someone looking at my body like that. Eventually they came back Into the room, Ricky fidgeting more than ever.
"Deep cuts were mostly healed. He'll be in therapy for a few days." The Doctor said.

Doctor McKinnon went back to his office and we all sat around Chris. We talked until visiting hours were over. As we were getting ready to leave we heard a little
"Wait" be whispered through a rough throat. Rick stood behind me as we watched Chris slowly wake up. He rolled around In what seemed to be agonizing pain. Doctor McKinnon called other nurses in to pin Chris down as he removed the tube from his throat.
"What happened" he said as his voice skipped over the hard syllables.
"You over dosed. Once you're feeling better I'm going to need you to fill this out. If you need anything you can press this button. You're going to be in here for a few days. The person next to you is Frank Iero, he's 17. He might have visitors. I'll let your visitors stay an extra hour. And lastly, I'm Jeremy McKinnon, your doctor and therapist." He said as he got Chris situated then walked out of the room.
"Ricky I'm so sorry" he croak out.
"Shut up. I don't want to talk about." Ricky said as he walked closer to the bed in small shuffles.
"I'm just glad you're alive." He quickly said before he kissed Chris.
"I'll let you boys hand out. I'm going to go get some food." Mrs.Sola said as she stood up.

We made small talk and listed off 'I remember...'s for about half an hour.
"I remember when I was like 4 feet tall and I complained about everything." Ricky said
"I see nothing has changed" Chris chuckled.
"Shuttttt uppppp" Ricky wined. We all laughed. We heard Frank murmuring and then groan a bunch. Chris hit his call button and Doctor McKinnon came within a few minutes.
"Frank's waking up?" He asked. Chris nodded his head.
"Hey Frank. How are you feeling?" He asked in a pet voice.
"Like shit. Get Gerard." He gritted.
"Visiting hours are over. Tomorrow." Doctor McKinnon said as he added another bottle of sedative to Frank's IV.
"Fine. The drugs never work" Frank spat.
"Sleepy time" Doctor McKinnon said.
"Night guys see you tomorrow" Frank said as he laid back down and waved to all of us.
"Sorry about that guys." Doctor McKinnon said as he shut the door.

"Hey guys. I'm Frank" he stated as he stood up.
"He just drugged you! Lay down!" I yelled. He hit a button that turned off the IV pumps and pulled all the cords off of him.
"I might get sleepy but I'm not laying back down. What are your names?" He asked casually.
"I'm Balz. That's Chris and Ricky." I said as I pointed. He nodded and sat on the end of Chris's bed.

We talked until Doctor McKinnon came into the room.
"Time to go guys" he said. Frank got up with us to walk out of the room. We made it to the door before McKinnon saw Frank trying to leave with us.
"Frank you're supposed to be asleep." He half growled.
"Told you that drugs don't work." He said before trying to dash out of the room. McKinnon grabbed Frank by his waist and practically threw him back into bed. He reconnected the IV and hit a few buttons. He kept a hand on Frank's chest so he would get up again. Soon Frank's eye lids were fluttering and the doctor ushered us o it of the room.
"See you all tomorrow." He said as Ricky and I left to find Mrs.Sola.

Ricky slept over my house and we talked until 3 am when we started questioning existence.
"Hey Ricky. Are you still mad at Chris?" I asked in a hushed voice.
"A little. I'm mad that he's not taking the blame for himself. I'm gonna go to sleep." He said in a meek voice.
"Night" I said before turning over.
"Night" he whispered.

Woohoo. Here you go. Thanks. So long and goodnight. Mama destroya signing off.
