Punk=Outsider

Chapter 8

Cody

I woke up to a loud bang. When I got out of my bunk to see what it was Max was standing there trying to look innocent. "What the hell was that noise?" I ask and he just smiled and shrugged his shoulders. I glared at him for a minute to see if he'd crack when he didn't I just turned around and started walking back to my bunk I was still tired. I was about to climb in when whack something hit me right in the back of my head. I turned around just in time to see Max start running. By this time the rest of the guys were up and trying to hold onto me while I chased after him to kick his ass. "Dude what the hell I wanna sleep. Shit" I said after the guys let me go. "Well you should have slept last night instead of staying up all night talking to that nut job you insist on helping" Max said and that crossed the line for me. I lunged at him tackling him to the ground. "Izzy is not a nut job she is a fan that needs help and damn it if I can help her I will. I don't give a damn if the rest of you do but I am I don't want any of our fans to be hurting like that and the fact that she cut herself at our show hurts you son of a bitch. Now back the fuck off I'm going back to sleep do the damn interview without me." I screamed as I got back into my bunk.
A couple hours passed with me just laying there fuming about what Max had said so I decided I'd text and see how Izzy and Matt were doing.

hey how are you guys this morning-c

We're good we just got home Matt stayed over last night and we talked about everything we are offically dating-i

That's great I'm glad to hear that. Just wanted to check up on you guys I'm gonna try to get a little more sleep. Didn't get much last night-c

After that I didn't get a message back from Izzy but suprisingly I got one from Matt and he seemed pretty upset, which confused me cause she seemed so happy that they were together maybe he's scared.

Hey Cody I need to talk to you dude-m

Yea what's up man-c

Its about Izzy I think she might be bulimic on top of cutting I don't know what to do to show her she's perfect to me-m

Oh fuck what do I tell him I thought about my friend Josh and how he went through the same thing.

Let me make a couple calls I have a friend that might be able to help-c

Once I realized he wasn't gonna write back I got on the phone trying every number I could. When I finally got somene to answer. "Hey can I talk to Josh this is Cody Carson" I asked who ever answered a couple mins later Josh got on the phone "hey man what's up my sis said it sounded important" he said as soon as he picked up the reciver. "Ok don't think I'm nuts for this but a couple nights ago at our show in ohio I met this girl Izzy and her now boyfriend Matt. I want to help these two cause she has some major problems that unless she gets help or has someone that's gone through it helping her she's not gonna get any better. They were in line for a meet and greet and when I grabbed her wrist to pull her in for a hug she cringed like it hurt I pulled her sleeve up and she had a huge gash on it. Also Matt just texted me saying she hasn't eaten anything in three days and if she does she goes straight to the bathroom after and pukes. I know this may bring up painful memories but I can't help but want to help this girl. Is there anyway you could help me with this and maybe met her and talk to her about what it was like for you." I finish and for a few mins he doesnt say anything. "Yea dude of course you know I'd do anything for music fans and especially if I can use my experince to help someone else going through what I did. Get their address and set something up for when your tour is done and we can met up with them just let me know when and where and for how long." He said we said our goodbyes and I finally breathed not knowing I had been holding my breath for that long.

Send me your address and make sure two weeks from now is completely clear-c

Ok-m

That was it except for the address once I got that I texted Josh all the info and told him two weeks from today cause our tour would be over by then. I decided I should let the guys know what's going on even though their probably still pissed at me but I don't really care right now what Max said was bullshit and none of them supported me in this anyway. I got out of my bunk and started toward the front of the bus I didn't think they'd be here so when I seen them all in the living room area it was a suprise. I came in and sat down at the table and they all just looked at me expecting me to apoligize most likely.
"Ok look I'm not going to say I'm sorry for anything I said earlier none of you support me on trying to help this girl. I've talked to her and her boyfriend Matt so much in the past couple days I consider them friends. I just came out here to let you know the last day of tour after our show and the meet and greet I'm going back to indiana to meet up with Josh Ramsay we are going to suprise Izzy and try to find a way to help her through everything." After I said what I had to I started to get up and walk to the back of the bus where we play video games at I felt like ripping a zombies head from its shoulders right now when Dan grabbed my shoulder and said "we're all sorry dude. We should have been more supportive and Max shouldn't have been such a dick right Max" he said glaring at him. "Yea yea but damn how was I suppose to know Cody was going to go all hulk on me and try to rip my head off" said Max. I rolled my eyes as everyone including me started laughing. We sat there and made plans for the rest of tour and came up with ideas on how to help Izzy they were all on board now.
