Fight for you

Part 23

Now when I am looking at Jay I see something completely different. I don't see the guy who asked me to be his girlfriend in front of the whole school, or the guy that used to call me his princess. I now see the guy who has eyes full of secrets and lies.

"Jay, I don't know what to believe." I said.

"Zoe, believe me. I am telling you the truth."

I needed to know for sure. "Does Ryan have an illness?"

Jay paused. "that depends.."

"What do you mean?"

"He didn't before, but he has something wrong with him now"

"Jay, seriously. What is going on with him?"

"Caleb has been giving him pills, they make him forget things and fall over a lot. It's weird"

I decided I had heard enough. I needed proper answers and the only place I could find them was at Ryan and Caleb's house..

I couldn't let them see me, I got out of my car which I parked a block away so they couldn't see it and walked quickly towards a bush outside the house. I ducked immediately as I saw Caleb, Ryan and a group of strong looking men waking out of the house. I couldn't hear what they were saying but they sounded angry. They all piled into a big car and 5 seconds later the engine started and they backed out of the drive way fast enough for the tyres to screech on the ground.

I waited for a few seconds to make sure the coast was clear before I ran as quickly as I could to the back of the house. I couldn't risk going through the front door so I tried the back, I pushed the door as hard as I could, something was blocking it. I saw a small unstable looking step ladder on the side walk. I got it and tested it for stability. I was definitely not convinced that it would hold me but I got on anyway. The ladder was shaking as I stood on it and put one leg over the door and through a small window. I jumped down yelling in pain as broken glass on the window dug into my leg and gave me a long deep cut down my leg. Fuck fuck fuck I thought as I wiped the tears from my eyes, grew a pair and walked into the house.

I walked into the front room before I realised I was dripping blood everywhere. I grabbed the nearest thing that looked clean and wrapped it around the cut as tight as possible. The room was the same room that I was sitting in when I met Caleb. I went to the desk to find lists of names, people I had never heard of before, some of the names had been crossed out with a dark red pen, was this the people they had killed? I browsed for Shaun's name, not there.

I opened the drawer on the side of the table to find a number of envelopes. I looked at all of them to see if I could find anything familiar. I came across an envelope that said:

"Ryan medication. DO NOT TOUCH"

Naturally, I opened it. There was about 6 bottles of small white pills. They were all the same 'Glyserenopam'. I turned to the computer and typed in the name on google.

An anti Anxiety medication that was known to cause memory loss and insomnia.

That explained the memory loss. Under all of the envelopes was another list, with Shaun's name being the first on that list. Beside Shaun's name was the name of another medication 'Flucoxidam' I googled that aswell.

Medication commonly known to treat cases of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and insomnia.

Shaun had PTSD? Suddenly it felt like the more I was looking into Shaun's past the less I knew about my brother. I started to look through the rest of the drawers and came across more medication and a lot of money. I turned around to look around the rest of the house when..

Pain.

Darkness.
