//TW: blood, vomit, mentions of suicide attempt, mentions drugs

Travis Phelps is in the hospital. 

I heard he's on life support.

He was messing with the wrong crowd and got beat up.

I heard he tried to kill himself.

No. I heard he almost overdosed on accident.

That what my friend told me too.

No I live in his neighborhood he must've almost died somehow.

The word got around quick that Travis was emitted to the ER. Word also got around that he's on life support. Rumors began to travel around the school. Some say that he almost overdosed and other's say he was beat up. Some were bold enough to say that both reasons is why he was in the hospital. However, everything started when pretty much all of the neighborhood was awaken by the screaming sirens of the ambulance. Travis' mom got home late from work  to discover her son nearly dead. She immediately called 911 and the details were unclear. The rumors say that he was foaming out the mouth, others say he was in a pool of blood. Some say that he wasn't breathing when he was found.

Everything made Sal Fisher sick. He didn't hear about the rumors until his 1st period. He didn't believe them. He didn't want to believe them. But his worst nightmare was confirmed when the principle came into the room. 

"I know we are all worried about Travis but he is on life support and the hospital says that he is alive. He'll be back in school when he's better. I want all of us to remain respectful and to not-"

Sal ran out of the room and to the bathroom to throw up. He was a mess. Larry ran in after him and he went into the stall to hold back Sal's hair as he vomited. Sal weakly stood up, flushed the toilet and almost collapsed. Larry helped steady Sal and he held him in his arms. Sal sobbed.

"Hey, Sal, it's going to be okay. He's alive," Larry whispered. 

Sal said something but it was inaudible.

The two agreed to visit Travis right after school.
