"Where is she?"
"Yo. You know Carry right?"
"Yeah, we do."
"Well, I saw her going into the toilets with a bottle of pills. She was crying too right. Recon she might need some checking up on."
"Why didn't you say something earlier?!" Oscar said, and they rushed off.

"Carry?"
"Carry? Carry!" Rose said as she saw Carry's feet under a door. "Oscar the door," Rose ordered and Oscar bashed it in.
"Carry!" Oscar cried out before they knelt beside her.
"Carry. Oscar, she's taken all of them," Rose said as she picked up the empty bottle of pills.
"She's not breathing," Oscar announced after he listened. He picked her up and moved her into the main bathroom.
"Why has she done this?" Rose asked as Oscar started mouth to mouth.
"We made her feel useless. She felt like she wasn't one of the team."
"But she is. This is ridiculous. Why has she tried to commit suicide?!"
"She hasn't tried Rose, she has. She's not breathing," Oscar said before he started getting air into Carry's lungs.
"Frank. It's Rose. We've found Carry."
"Good. Bring her to HQ."
"No. She's not breathing."
"What?!"
"You need to get to the girl's toilets, fast. Bring vinegar and sugar with you," Rose said and Carry took a very faint breath in.
"Yes! She's breathing."
"Carry!" Rose called and Carry strained as her breathing was weak.
"But we could lose her again," Oscar said as he rested a hand onto her neck. "We need to get these pills out of her system."
"I'm already on it."
"Carry." Frank said as he came in.
"She's breathing Frank."
"Barely. The ingredients," Rose said and Frank gave them to her. She combined them and diluted them in water.
"How could she do this? Overdose."
"We made her feel worthless. But this went too far."
"It certainly did."
"Pour this down her throat," Rose said as she handed them a bottle.
"Are you sure?"
"Yes. Do it. It should provoke a reflex action and cause her to be sick," Rose said and Oscar gave Carry the mix.
"Carry?" Frank asked as they waited.
"Carry?" Oscar asked and Carry gagged. They quickly rolled her onto her side and she threw up.

A long five minutes passed before Carry took a deeper breath in.
"Carry? It's Oscar, can you hear me?" Oscar asked.
"...smell..."
"Carry!"
"You took an overdose Carry. We've saved your life," Rose told her.
"Rose..." Carry said before she relaxed and Oscar took her pulse.
"Carry?"
"She's ok. She's just passed out."
"Let's move her to HQ. I have medical equipment there that we can use," Frank said and Oscar carried her.

They lay her onto the bed and Oscar stayed with her while Rose monitored her vitals.
"I'm sorry," Carry told them as she came round.
"Thank you. We should never have made you feel that bad Carry."
"More importantly, you should know that you can always come to us. With anything."
"I felt like I couldn't," Carry said and Oscar took her hand. "I'm sorry. It felt like there was nothing else that I could do."
"I understand."
"Do you? I know what it's like to hide something and hate yourself for it. But it's never worth turning to drugs Carry."
"I'm sorry."
"We're glad that you're ok," Rose said, changing the subject.
"Donovan told us where you were."
"Donovan? But I took the pills in the girl's toilets."
"Maybe he went look for Davina and found you instead."
"You weren't breathing Carry. So I had to breathe for you."
"Then we had to make you throw up. It was disgusting."
"You saved me."
"We did. We always would."
"Don't do it again Carry. I don't think Oscar and I would survive it," Rose said and Carry smiled. "Drink this."
"What is it?"
"It'll bring your fluid levels back up. They're very low."
"Let me help," Oscar said and he helped Carry to drink it.
"Thank you guys."
"We love you Carry. You're family to me."
"And to me. Get some rest. Your body's taken a big hit."
"Yeah," Carry agreed and she fell asleep.
"Is she ok?" Rose asked Oscar.
"I think so. I'm going to stay with her overnight just in case."
"That's a good idea," Rose said and she got ready to leave. "Oscar?"
"Yes?"
"Don't... sleep with her."
"I won't. She's out cold."
"That's not why I..." Rose said before she left. Oscar frowned, but he got into his PJ's and climbed into bed with Carry anyway.
