Violets Addiction

Chapter 4

Its been like 3 days since Daniel has started therapy. I Have to pick him up from therapy today.

Hey, How was Therapy? I asked

Its therapy, nothing excited happened. He said with his hood on and his hands in his pocket not happy

Are you okay?

Yeah, just take me home.

Okay.

As we get home Daniel starts being weird but i didnt think anything of it to be honest. Before we get out the car i turn the car off and Daniel looks at me and gives me a kiss on the cheek, and says thank you for everything violet, i love you.

I love you too. i said back

As were walking to the door, I ask Daniel if he is hungry and he says no that he just wants to go to bed, cause he is really tired and gonna take a nap that whenever i get hungry to order it and he will just warm it up when he wakes.

Okay Daniel. Enjoy your nap. I reply

I will i really love you and your mom as well so, just t let you know i appreciate everything you and her have done for me.

Its okay bestie, Anytime you need me i am here okay?

Okay, Love you. As he kisses me on the cheek gives me a tight hug and walks down stairs to go take a nap.

A few hours have passed and i decide to go check on Daniel to see if he is still asleep cause he usually dont take naps this long. As i walk downstairs softly calling his name i hear no answer so i dont know where he could be. I walk upstairs to see if he is the shower and he isnt so im so confused. I scream his name and ask where he is and no response. I go look in the rooms and i look in the extra bedroom, Which has the bathroom he usually uses when he goes #2. As i knock on the door it is locked. I JIggle it and call his name but he doesnt answer and i start banging and no answer. At this moment im screaming and banging consistantly jiggling the door knob. I remember there is a key to the rooms and stuff on my keys so i run grab my keys and start unlocking it as i rush in i immediantly scream by what i saw. It was Daniel laying on the floor with pills coming out of his hand from where he fell. I rush over grabbing him screaming at him crying hard as crap for him to wake up but he never woke up and that's when i grab my phone and call 911 then call my mom. Both mom and 911 are on the way so i put my phone down and remember my sister is home, Shes not really our sister but she is adopted but she is only 9 she knows that Daniel is gone but she don't know what he did.

DANIEL!DANIEL! NO! NO! PLEASE WAKE UP DANNI! i cried

As Daniel layed there in my arms with my hands holding him close crying non stop as my sister is staring at me shocked, She is young she doesnt know what is going on. I am frightened, this is my best friend how could i not see it getting this bed. My mom comes in after my phone call to her and 911 and she immediatly falls in tears and coming to me and holding me, I have to say she was crying as hard as i was. After a few minutes the Ambulance arrives and they rush in with a garner to put him on but i wasn't going down without a fight cause i was riding in the ambulance with him, After a talk with my mom and the ambulance they let me and i rode with him as they tried to get a response from him but they couldn't even get a pulse. We arrive at the hospital and they immediantly rush into the hospital and we couldn't go back just yet we had to wait till they could do whatever medical stuff they did. They decided to put Daniel on life support. It was such an emotional night. They tried everything to get his pulse back but before i had found him he was already dead for 2 hours. My jaw dropped and i immediatly fell to tears.

I am so sorry but if he starts to breathe on his own that will be a miracle but i am gonna be honest were gonna play it out and see how it goes but if he doesnt start breathing on his own withing 24 hours we have to take him off life support. Its okay doc we understand, Is how my mom responded but the thing is its not okay. I am so close to losing my best friend and basically i have already it will take a miracle for him to wake given he was already dead for 2 hours before i found him. Its my fault if i was to just check on him before i did i maybe could have saved him, I could have helped him, he maybe could be alive right now. You doint understand how bad i feel right now.

Come on honey lets go home. My mom said softly while grabbing my arm

No, Im not leaving him. I said jerking my arm away

Baby, He will be okay but you need rest we can come back first thing in the morning.

No, Mom everything isnt gonna be okay, things arnt okay. Okay? Where do you see that things are okay cause for crying out loud im in the hospital where my best friend is lying down basically dead and you have the nerve to say he is okay. Thats Bullcrap mom and you know it, so you can go home but im gonna stay here and im not leaving unless he is leaving with me. I said in tears

Okay, Im gonna give you some money and want you to eat okay and im gonna bring you n=back a blanket.

Mom im fine.

No, if you wanna stay here you will take the money and use the blanket i bring back to you okay? she said

Okay. I replied'

See you in a bit i love you honey. she said kissing my cheek

Love you too mama.
