Alexander awoke peacefully, every hung seemed perfect until he relished that John was missing. At first he thought that maybe he had woken up to make breakfast, but when he wanders into the kitchen that theory was disproved. After thoroughly searching the apartment Alexander decided to call John.
*ring**ring**ring**ri-*
"Oh Lex I'm so sorry I though I would be home by now, but I just got this really bad feeling and I needed to figure out where it was coming from and-" John rambled but Alexander cut him off.
"John, John, John slow down" Alexander kept a clam tone, "are you safe?" He asked.

"Yes" John replied.

"Are you about to make a rash decision?"Alexander asked

"No" john replied again

"Are you hurt?" Was Alexanders final question.

"No, no not at all!" John burst out.

"Okay good, now just calm down and tell me where you are." Alexander said trying to calm John.

"The hospital I-" Alexander cut John off

"I though you said you weren't hurt!" Alexander almost yelled in a mixture of fear and grief.

"Lex calm down I'm fine I'm not the one hurt, please just get Eliza, or James or Peggy or someone except Ang and meet me here." John pleaded. Alexander shook his head yes, even though John couldn't see,

"Okay I'll be there as soon as I can." Alexander said hanging up the phone. He proceeded to call Peggy, and tell her to meet him outside his apartment in five.

When Peggy showed up she had Maria with her and they look puzzled as to why they were there.

"John told me to call someone because he's AT, not IN the hospital." Alexander paused. "He would tell me why." Peggy squeezed Maria's hand and they all got in a taxi and drove to the hospital.

When they arrived Alexander burst out of the car and ran to John, who was standing out side on the sidewalk waiting for them.

"I'm so glad your okay." Alexander said pulling John in for a hug.  John pulled away and led the three inside, and check in with a nurse.

Alexander felt too familiar with the hallways was he followed john, it made him uneasy.  Finally they stopped outside a door at the end of the hall by the ICU.

"Before we go in I need to explain" John said resting his hand on the door.  He took a deep breath and recounted the entire experience of the past few hours.

//flash back//

When  John pushed threw the door, the room seemed untouched.  The bed was nicely made and everything was in its place.  Suddenly John realized there was a sound of rushing water coming from the bathroom at Tito the room. 

When John burst into the bathroom he was horrified.  His eyes started at the floor where there were pill bottles and a slew of individual pills scattered across the floor.  He hesitantly looked up at the bathtub where the faucet had been turned in and water was about to start spilling over the edge.  John approached and saw a pale, lifeless Thomas laying in the water.  He hadn't noticed before but the water was slightly red from the blood that was spilling out of gashes on Jeffersons arms. 

Johns first instinct was to turn the water off and then call an ambulance.  Next she pulled the heavier man out of the water and looked for bandages. 

When the ambulances arrived John got in with them and explained how he had had a bad feeling and went to Thomas's apartment to check on him, only to find Thomas lying in the bathtub with pills and blood everywhere.

They took Jefferson to the ICU and Joh was led to the waiting room for further questioning. 

//end//

When John finished explaining he slowly opens the door, revealing Thomas asleep I bed.  Maria was the first to take action, being a long time friend of his.  Peggy, John and Alexander soon followed. 

After a while John and Alexander went to get breakfast.  They had intended to just pick something up for everyone, but John wound up seeing one of the doctors and sitting down to talk.

"So how's he doing?" John asked hesitantly.

"As of now, not so well" the doctor paused d and glanced at Alexander, "we tried to pump his stomach m, but with the combination of such a loss of blood and the abound of hardcore drugs he has in him...things aren't looking too bright."

John sighed and rested his head in his hands as Alexander rubbed his back.  The doctor glanced at Alexander once more, who was feeling so many emotions he spat out,

"You got a problem with being gay?" The doctor looked socked at his comment and explained.

"No! Not at all, It's just, I mean are you Mr. Hamilton?" The doctor asked, "the one who survived a gunshot wound right between the ribs?"

Alexander smiled, "blearily" he said.

Okay I'm probably going to end this book at 40 chapters, I will probably make a sequel though and I'll write some more stuff.  My question is though, do you want me to make Jeffersons case really sad of happy? I kind of want to make it sad (if you know what I mean) but would that turn you guys off from reading?!? I really want to know because that's the direction I will take the next chapter.
