The Wires{Got The Best of Him}

Awaken

Josh had been drifting in and out of sleep for a week. Aaron shook him awake to give him water, and when he woke up Aaron held some small hope he would stay awake, but he didn't. Aaron was desolate in the cell, barely touching the food trays that were stacking up. The people who worked there wouldn't take the trays if the food wasn't eaten. The only time he moved from his permanent spot on the floor next to Josh's bed was to get water for Josh.

The door opened and another set of trays was placed on the floor. It was noon, so they gave out sandwiches and water. Fresh water. Aaron learned a while ago that the water that came out of the taps was for cleaning purposes only and it was purified to fit that purpose. If he gave any of that to Josh he'd probably die from some sort of contagion, other than the obvious one.

He picked up one of the glasses of water from the trays. Josh was having a peaceful sleep for once. He knew Josh had to be close to starving, but he remembered that someone could last longer without any food rather than water. He was just going to have to deal with no food until he woke up.

Aaron contemplated how long he'd been in this place. It had been almost a month. He thought back to when he was first brought here. That's right, they never did tell me if my symptom was fatal or not. I guess I know I have a higher life expectancy that others though, considering it's been about 2 months since I contracted this. There's no guarantee that I'll actually survive though.

He returned to his spot on the floor. Maybe I should look for William and Will again. But I can't leave Josh alone. But maybe they could help. What if their conditions are worse than mine? Or, god forbid, worse than Josh's? If one of them had the eye symptom, they are probably already dead. But even still, I can't just give up, what if both of them are alive? What if- Aaron heard a groan coming from above him. He shot up and turned his full attention to Josh.

Josh was stirring in his sleep. He rolled around on the bed, groaning. Aaron panicked slightly. He looks like he's in pain. What do I do? He decided to shake him awake. "Wake up," he tried to keep his voice level. If Josh woke up to him panicking, he'll probably panic too.

Josh's eyes opened slowly. He didn't say anything or move, he just looked around.When his eyes landed on Aaron, they seemed to be clouded over. Josh opened his mouth to speak, but instead of words coming out, blood did. Aaron's eyes widened and he pulled him out of bed as gently as he could. Josh almost flopped over onto the floor, but he regained balance quickly enough to avoid a faceplant. Any other time Aaron would be laughing, but right now he was worried. What if he starts to cough up blood again? With this thought in mind, he lead Josh over to the bathroom.
He opened the door to the bathroom and helped Josh stumble in. They headed over to the toilet, where Josh proceeded to throw up blood. Aaron was starting to understand why there was blood everywhere on that particular morning.
Aaron tried to bring him to the sink to wash his face off (and his clothes. The blood was everywhere.) but he stumbled when Josh suddenly put all of his weight on him. Aaron had to drag Josh the short distance from the toilet to the sink. Josh had fainted again. Aaron laid him down on the cold floor as gently as he could.  He needed to clean him up, and that wasn't going to happen if he was carrying him.
Aaron grabbed one of the towels that didn't have dried blood on it and wetted it on the sink. He squeezed the water out and shook the towel off. He used it took wipe off Josh's face and after some internal debate, removed his shirt so he could clean the blood on his chest.
He carried Josh back to the bed and did the best he could to make him comfortable. He sighed. There was blood on his shirt and arms. He sat down and took a bite of stale bread from one of the trays in the food pile. We can't keep doing this. I have to do something, and fast. Otherwise... I don't even want to think about what'll happen.
