Kickdrum Beating in My Chest Again (Alternate Version)

Chapter 109

!!!!!!!!!Author's Note!!!!!!!!!!

Hello everyone! Happy Friday! I hope everyone had a good week! Mine was quiet, but I did teach lessons this week, ran errands and had a follow-up doctor's appointment. They said everything looked good and was healing nicely! I still have many restrictions, but I'm happy that everything looked good! It's also Mother's day this weekend, so it will be nice celebrating that! I plan to go to the Japanese Hibachi place in town. It's so good! Happy Mother's day to any moms who read my story! I remember when I was a new mom, I'd read Fall Out Boy fanfiction for sanity breaks. We didn't know he was autistic until he started T-K and the school flagged him, so his early years were very challenging. Looking back, I wish I'd known what was going on, because it would've made his early years much easier.

Anyways, this week, Patrick and Joe go to breakfast where Patrick has to find things he can eat because his tongue is so swollen. They sit with Dan and his friends, Joe explains what happened last night, and they react while Patrick tries to eat slowly. He's not having much luck when he sees Gabe approaching their table, panics, and has an asthma attack. Gabe stops it and Patrick asks to talk to him privately when he's better. Patrick tells Gabe what Justin did last night and tells him that Joe will be beating the shit out of him at lunch, and Joe shares a short synopsis of Patrick's hallucination that he had the previous evening with everyone.

"You know where to find me when you two are done. Don't be late either! We've got places to be!" Brad says as he stomps on Patrick's foot, just to fuck with him as he leaves.

"Ow! Fuck! That hurt, asshole!" Patrick yells at Brad as he's walking away.

"That was the point, Stump!" Brad answers before he turns the corner to go wait with the other guards.

"Arg!!!!!!!!! Joe, please stop me from killing him and making my sentence longer!" Patrick says, pissed off.

"Deep breaths, Patrick. He's trying to get under your skin. Don't let him. Use your anger to fuel you. Besides, we both know there is no way to kill him. If there was, we'd both have done it already." Joe suggests.

Patrick takes a few deep breaths and sets aside his anger to use later. Patrick looks around the room and is happy when everything appears normal. He still can't see far away for shit, but he tries to look at his food choices, hoping for something soft that he doesn't have to chew a lot. His mouth and tongue are still very sore, and he really doesn't want to eat anything, but he knows he must, otherwise Gabe will come and force feed him again. His tongue had actually swollen up more as he'd kept talking, so that was fun. From what he can see, there aren't many soft options. Maybe he's missing something. He really hopes he is. Joe sees him eyeing the food and whispers in his ear.

"Are you going to be able to eat any of this stuff? It all looks relatively hard, which won't be fun for you." Joe asks.

"I'm going to have to. I don't want to be force fed again, but my mouth still hurts really bad, and my tongue has actually swollen up more. Fuck my life!" Patrick answers.
