[Trigger warning. ]

Brendon and Josh were in the waiting room sitting anxiously, and as time flew by, more worry consumed them.

Ashley and Frank pulled into the hospital parking lot and ran into the building.

"Where's Tyler?"

"Still in the hospital room. No one is allowed in there. Melanie went to the Cafe to get some coffee. " Brendon said.

"Ryan said his mom is driving him here, and Gee Said he'll meet us here."
Ashley said.

"What happened?"

Josh hesitated for a second, and then answered.

"Tyler cut himself, and then took some strong pills and passed out." Josh was crying with very word he spoke.

Melanie had arrived with a smoothie, and two coffees in a cup tray.

"Did you want something? I can go back." Mel asked.

"I'll have to look what they have. Frank?" Ashley asked.

"I'm good. You might want to wait for Ryan and Gee, before you go."

Ryan suddenly burst through the doors and walked toward the group.

"Where's Tyler?"

"The doctor's are still operating on him. They aren't accepting visitors. " Brendon said.

"Fuck." Ryan swore.

"That's what I said." Brendon recalled.

"Do you know where Gerard is?" Ryan asked.

"He's on his way now. Which is funny because his last name is Way." Ashley silently chuckled, trying to lighten up the mood.

A doctor walked over to the group. "Are you the friends of Tyler Joseph?"

Josh stood up," Yes. Is He okay?"

"He will be fine, just make sure he takes his medication and drinks plenty of water."

They all exhaled a breath of relief.

"Thank you, Sir."

"Just doing my job, kid." The doctor nodded and left.

There was a brief moment of silence.

Brendon reached for his coffee and sipped. He put his coffee back down and asked,"Who's gonna call his mom?"

"Oh shit!" Ashley cursed.

"I'll do it. She knows me more than everyone here, except for Mel."

They all turn toward Josh, who had spoke.

"Does she know about what happened between you guys?" Frank asked.

Josh shrugged, " I don't know, but I'm about to find out. " He pulled out his phone and walked away, dialing her number.

Gerard walked through the doors with another guy trailing after him.

"Where's Tyler?" He asked.

"He's still in the hospital room. He's okay now. " Brendon said, again for third time.

"Who is this?" The purple haired girl asked.

"That's my little brother, Mikey. He's in middle school. 8th grade."

"Oh that's cool. What's it like in the younger generation?" Melanie asked the boy.

"We are fucked. "

Ash raised her eyebrows. "Well, Shit."

Ryan nodded his head toward Josh, who was walking back.

"She said that she and his siblings are on their way. His dad is over in Ohio, working."

The group nodded. Gerard sat down and Mikey sat down in a chair next to him. Ryan, Ashley and Melanie got up and went to back to the Cafe to get more drinks.

"Was she mad at you?" Frank asked.

"She told me that it was her fault for not being aware of his situation. That he wasn't taking his medication. "

"What medication?" Brendon asked.

Ryan, and Melanie came back and sat down.

"Hey, What are we talking about?" Ryan asked.

"Tyler. " Josh says quickly.

"Where's Ash?" Gerard asked.

"She's in the long line for slushies. " Melanie said, placing down a hot chocolate for Gerard, and a small coffee for Mikey.

They immediately picked their drinks up, and started drinking.

Josh continued to talk to Brendon. "She said I could tell people openly what kind of medication until Tyler is ready to talk about it."

Gerard shrugged," I mean, it is Tyler's right to say if he want to share that kind of information."

Brendon sighed," Yeah, true."

The group sat in silence again. Ash walked over and sat beside Melanie with her blue raspberry slushie in hand.

"Are we allowed to go see him yet?" She asked.

Ryan answered with an,"I dunno", and the group fell silent, for a third time.

Finally, after what seemed like hours, the doctor came back to the group.

"He's awake now, and asked for a person named Josh?"

Everyone, except for the doctor who was glancing at everyone, turned to Josh, as he stood up.

"Good luck in there, bean." Brendon smiled.

Josh rolled his eyes, smiling back as he turned to walk away.
