Really? // Stenbrough

Chapter 48

Stan's PoV

Bill and I spent a couple hours putting up our pictures and it was time for me to go home. Hopefully Tony isn't there anymore. That was so gross seeing that. It made me want to puke.

"Alright Love. I have to go." I said getting up from the floor.

"No."

"Bill I have to."

"No you don't!" He yelled.

"Love calm down. It's gonna be ok." I said kneeling next to him.

Bill looked up at me and glared.

What's going on? He was fine just moments ago. But it seems like he'd just get angry all of sudden lately now. For the past week to be exact.

"I don't want you to go." Bill said, crossing his arms.

"Love I have to. Sophia wants me back by 10. It's 9:48."

He continued to glare at me. "Fine."

I leaned in to kiss his forehead but he pulled away. I sighed and stood up.

"I love you."

"I love you too." He stood up and went to lay down on his bed, facing the wall.

I looked at him confused before walking out of his bedroom and then out of his house.

I woke up the next morning to my phone ringing. I picked up my phone and looked at the time quick before answering.

Why is Sharon calling me at 6:30 in the morning, on a Monday?

"Hello?" I asked.

"Stan please come over. I don't know what happened, Bill just got so angry all of a sudden. He's threatening to hurt himself Stan."

I shot up in my bed. "I'll be there as soon as I can." I hung up and ran down to Sophia's room.

I knocked on her door until she answered.

"What do you want?" She asked annoyed.

"I need a ride over to Bill's. It's important." I said desperately.

She looked at me and nodded. "Let's go."

Seven minutes later, I was running into Bill's house in my pajamas. I heard yelling come from upstairs so that's where I went.

"Bill please. Calm down." I heard Sharon say.

"No!"

I ran towards the sound and ended up in Bill's room. Sharon was standing away from Bill while Zach was trying to take something from his sons hands.

"Bill?" I questioned.

His head snapped towards me and that's when Zach was able to successfully take away whatever was in his hands. A knife. A knife!? He was holding a knife.

I carefully took a step towards Bill and opened my arms. He looked at me before running to me and collapsing into them.

I slowly lowered us to the ground and wrapped my arms around him. He buried his face into my shoulder as he began to cry.

"I don't k-know what's wrong w-with me Stan." He said genuinely scared. "I just-I just got so angry and I wanted to hurt myself."

I rubbed his back and looked up at his parents. Zach had his arms wrapped around his wife as she silently cried. He looked at me with confusion and fear in his eyes.

I held in my tears as I continued to rub Bill's back comfortingly.

"It's ok Bill. It's gonna be ok. We'll get this figured out and you'll be ok." I told him quietly.

He nodded his head against my shoulder and sniffled. I readjusted him so we were more comfortable. I moved his legs so they were around my waist and he wrapped his arms around my neck.

We sat like that for awhile, until he fell asleep. I didn't dare move him in fear he'd wake up in a panic.

"What do you thinks wrong with him?" Sharon asked me quietly.

"He's depressed. Georgie's disappearance took more of a toll on him then we thought." I said truthfully.

"We'll get him help. He will get better." Zach spoke.

I just looked at Bill and moved some hair out of his eyes. He looks so peaceful when he sleeps. I kissed the top of his head softly and he smiled in his sleep.

"When he wakes up we can take him to his therapist. I can call Sophia for you." Sharon offered.

"Thanks Sharon."

She nodded her head and walked out of the room, her husband following her. I faintly heard her talking on the phone, probably to Sophia and then bill's therapist.

I laid down on the floor, keeping Bill in my arms so I'd be more comfortable.
It wasn't until a couple hours later did he wake up.

"Hey Love. How are you feeling?" I asked softly.

He looked at me and sat up slowly. I sat up as well and held onto his hand.

"I'm-im ok." He whispered.

"Love, you're going to see your therapist ok. I'm gonna come with."

He nodded his head. I stood up and helped Bill stand. I got him dressed before I got changed myself. I grabbed his hand and lead him downstairs.

"Sharon? Bill's up. We are ready to go." I called out.

"In the kitchen sweetie." She answered.

I led Bill into the kitchen and saw his parents sitting at the table. Sharon set down her coffee and stood up.

"Let me get my keys and we can go."

I nodded my head and walked to the entryway with Bill. We put on our shoes and Sharon came back.

"Ready?"

"Yeah." Bill said.

I smiled and walked out to the car with him.
