Seizing Freedom

Tyler

I start to hear noise and realize I fell asleep.

Shit.

"Hey sleeping beauty, are you finally waking up or do I need to kiss you?" I hear Mike say and slowly start to open my eyes before snaping them wide open and looking around.

This isn't the movie theatre.

"It's okay, your in the hospital. We couldn't wake you up." Mike says grabbing my hand.

"What?" I ask.

So I did fall asleep in the theatre.

"You had a seizure in the car. We brought you here when it didn't stop, once it finally did you weren't waking up." Andre explains and I turn to look at him.

"How long was I out?" I asks and Andre checks his phone.

"Six hours." he states.

What?

Six hours?!

I've taken naps without having a seizure first that were longer than that. What the hell were they worried about?

"Why didn't you just leave me sleep?" I point out a little pissed off and Andre raises his eyebrows at me.

"Dude, you normally wake up first, then we let you sleep. You didn't wake up." Andre insists and I scoff.

"So? As long as I was breathing what the hell is the difference. You should have just took me home, I don't need to be here." I hiss and he frowns at me.

"Ty you had a twelve minute seizure, of course we brought you here." Mike argues and I turn to glare at him.

"And what did they do when you did?" I huff tilting my head knowing they wouldn't have done a damn thing, I don't even have an I.V. in this time.

"They checked to make sure you weren't still silently seizing, that you didn't have an infection or something else that caused the prolonged seizure in the first place, and they made sure your vitals were all stable. Ty come on, we had to bring you in. If we took you home and you were still seizing you would be dead by now." Andre says raising his voice.

"Its not the first time I've had a seizure that long, I would have been fine. You could have just thrown me in bed and left me there. This is a waste of time." I state looking away from Andre and pulling off the wires attached to my chest under the gown.

"What are you doing? They haven't discharged you yet!" Andre hisses grabbing my hand but I shake him off and glare at him.

"I'm going home, I don't need to be here." I insist as a nurse walks over and turns off the machine that started beeping as soon as I messed with the wires.
