Drugged To The Bone

I thanked them and went out of the room. I had a really bad feeling about Emmy, how she all of a sudden became nice and caring. I try to think of something else. I had a few pieces of candy I brought from my room so I popped one in my mouth. My thoughts go to Finn. It was kinda creepy that he was staring at me in my sleep but then I felt kinda flattered he was staring at me. Plus he called me cute. I remembered what Izzat said to him before he left. "I'm not her boyfriend." Was he hinting to Finn that I was single? Wow. He was actually that thoughtful to help Finn hit on me.

I see him with my mom near some gift shop. " Hey honey, are you all right?" my mom asked, her voice full of concern. "Yeah, I'm alright. We made 6 new celebrity friends now! And they invited us to a sleepover at one of there houses!" I say excitedly.

"That's nice of them." my mom says smiling. "We only have a couple of hours until we have to go back. You kids can go on by yourselves if you want." "Thanks mom!"

We went to booth to booth, looking at all the cool things that they have in store. By the end, I had two bags of souvenirs and he had one snow globe. It had the Empire State Building with the Comic-Con logo on the top as a flag. "How could you get one thing?" I ask him.

"How could you get everything?" he fires back.

That's when I had a pain searing head ache. I dropped my things and clutched my head with both of my hands. "Millie, are you okay?" Izzat asks but I barely hear it. It sounded like he said it through five doors so it sounded muffled and far away. Ever since I left the back room, my muscles and head was aching but I thought I was just tired. Now, all my organs were struggling to do its things. It was hard to breathe, my heart was struggling to pump blood, my limbs were tickling with a burning sensation. I threw up on the floor. I fell down to the ground on my back. My last sight was of Izzat shaking my shoulders, his voice muffled with sounds in the background that was barely audible.

I jolt up, inhaling and darting my eyes around to take in my surroundings. I was in a small hospital room, attached to an IV tube. I was wearing a hospital gown and I smelled horrible. What happened? I notice a peacefully sleeping Finn sitting on a chair next to me. I was staring at him for awhile until he stirred in his sleep and woke up. I quickly averted my eyes somewhere else. "Hey Millie, finally, you're awake."

"What happened to me?"

"Well, the doctors said you got drugged with a sleeping agent."

When did I get drugged? Sleeping agents?

"Who did it?"

"Nobody knows. Izzat said you just all of a sudden dropped to the floor, clutching your head and then collapsing to the ground and then blacked out."

"How long have I been here?"

"All night. Luckily the doctors were able to pump the drug out of your system."

"Did anyone else visit?"

"Nope, Only me. Once I heard I rushed here and just waited for you. You can leave in a few hours."

Then a wave of pain went through me. I screamed and Finn held my hand to reassure me. The pain finally calmed down and I breathed really slowly. In and out. In and out. Once the pain subsided, I looked at our intertwine hands. His hand fit perfectly in mine but was really sweaty, making it a little uncomfortable but I still held on. I looked at his brown eyes like Izzat's but his was slightly lighter. His freckles were everywhere. His jawline complimenting his facial features. This was the face I admired for the longest time in pictures and now in real life.

I look down breaking the trance and let go.

"So...why did you stay?" I asked him. He just shrugs.

"I don't know. You seem really interesting, more than any other fan." he glances at me for a second before looking down at the ground flustered. "I mean, you and Izzat. He seems cool, too. With, you know, explaining all that stuff of being normal like everyone else in the world." he says a little too quickly.  I smile at him.

"You nervous, Finny?" I say to him. He looks down blushing. I grab his chin and make him look me in the eye.

"What are you nervous about, Finn? Can't stand being with a girl?"  I purr in his face.  He gulps and his blush starts to turn a darker shade of red.

"Why are you blushing? Something on my face?" I say to him seductively. His mouth starts to part a little and his breathing came in quick, quiet breaths.

I suddenly realize what I just said and drop my hand. I start to blush myself, embarrassed of the sudden uncharacteristic outburst from me. The only sound in the room was the beeping of some machines and some rustling from behind the door. I lean back away from him and cough into my fist.

"Uh, sorry. That was inappropriate of me." I bury my face into my hands.

"I-It's fine. I'm surprised that no other hit on me before. Well, at least, not like that." he flashes a naughty smirk.

"So now do you think that we're different from other fans?" I ask him.

"I still do. You caught my eye at Comic-Con." he admits to me. I was honestly surprised.

"What?! How?"

"I don't know. Maybe because of your Eleven costume and you look pretty." he mumbles the last part by I caught on.

"What was that, Finn?" I raise my eyebrows.

"Pretty good! That's what I meant. You looked pretty good in the cosplay. You still look like you're wearing cosplay." he points at my hospital gown.

I got to admit, it did match the gown that Eleven wears. Finn looks at his wristwatch he was wearing and curses under his breath.

"Sorry, Millie. I have to go. I'll see you later." he gets off his chair and heads to the door.

"Finn!" I call him before he leaves.

"What?"

"Don't get too excited to see me again. And I hope the next time we meet, you'll better not be sleep stalking me again." he blushes and leaves. I chuckle to myself.

My mind goes back to the beginning of our conversation. I am really confused on who drugged me. It must be someone who was close to me at the Con.

Someone close to me... Oh no, can it be Izzat? He brought some sleeping pills on the trip. What if he drugged me so he could get back at me? He knows a lot of things about me. I remembered I had some candies I brought from my hotel room. I ate one of them after I got out of the back room. Did he lace my candy with sleeping drugs? It all adds up. He didn't visit me last night. He has sleeping pills for the trip. He knows I always have some mint candies in my pocket. What did he say on the plane? "You cannot hurt what cannot feel." Is that a euphemism for something?

I was debating about all this until I got released from the hospital. My mom picked me up and we headed to get a cab. And no Izzat. "Mom, wheres Izzat?"

"Oh he went to the sleepover but he said that he will come back at 10:00." My blood starts to boils til it was burning. My best friend, drugging me and then ditching me? After all these years and he does that to me?

I can't wait to see him when he comes back.
