Collateral Beauty

Cayden POV
I was done cooking and Gwen helped me out,”Thanks Gwen” She smiled,”Anytime Cayden, is there anything that you need help with to bring to the table?” I looked around at the counter,”nope it was just that pot and plates that I managed to find and clean as well” She nodded and went over to the table,”Yep everything is in tip top shape now, sound the dinner bell”
“Oh God you really are gay” I chuckled and rolled my eyes,”Dinner!” Miranda came over to me,”Everything looks delicious”
“Well had to make the best of it with limited resources” She patted my back as she smiled,”You’d make a Good Chef”
“Oh stop”

Blaire POV
I was in the library below which had amazing collections, I looked a shelf above and saw my favorite book collection, I pulled it and started reading it to pass the time and walked into another room then saw a male there, I jumped slightly then observed the room, there were pill containers,”Valium?” I slowly raised my hand to his neck to check his pulse, I controlled my breathing then suddenly, boom-boom……...boom-boom……….boom-boom……...boom-boom. He was still alive,”Holy shit….” I walked up slowly to the dining area,”Hey Dinner is on the table Blaire”
“There’s someone down there” Andrea looked over,”What? What are you talking about? We secured this place” I looked down there and back at her,”You didn’t know that there’s a library down there”
“Of course every rich person has to have a library” Jason said to us and Andrea said to me,“It-it was locked” I shrugged,”Not anymore” She grabbed her gun and put it in her holster,”But there’s one thing you should know..” I said as I stepped in front of her,”What?”
“He’s kinda in a coma, self induced coma” She was shocked and we walked down there for me to lead the way back to him,”Any ID on him?” I shook my head,”Fraid not, I checked for wallet or anything, maybe in the office there could be something about this guy” I was about to walk out and she put her hand on my shoulder,”We don’t even know if this is his house” He snorted and we jumped,”Shit!” We moved away from the guy and she said to me,”Get Dylan or Pete, anyone, we’re bringing him up, I’ll see what’s wrong” I nodded and I went up the stairs, I looked over at Dylan,”Dylan down here, now” He put his bowl and walked down the stairs with me,”You found a guy that is in a coma down here?”
“Well I wasn’t expecting to come down here and find a body” I stopped and said it to him and he nodded as he scratched his nose,”So...what are we gonna do?”
“We’ve been trying to figure it out, but what we’ve been thinking is to just bring him up there and try to wake him up” I had my hands on my waist,”How? We don’t even know how long he’s been like this” I scoffed lightly,”Dylan, we are doing the best that we can at the moment and I just found him like that, ev-even I’m thinking the same thing, I don’t know everything Dylan, I don’t know what to do about this, I don’t even know what’s wrong with him, I don’t even know who he is and I can’t always have all the answers here, I’m not a goddamn doctor” A tear was coming out and he put his hands on my shoulders,”Okay okay I’m...I’m sorry, come here” He pulled me into a hug and I took a staggering deep breath as I had my arms wrapped around him,”This is too much to take in”
“Take a deep breath with me Blaire” We broke apart to take a deep breath together

Andrea POV
I was examining this guy here, he seemed to be in his late-40s, Hispanic, Dylan and Blaire came down,”Anything yet?”
“This is out of my element, but he is in a coma, his rate is slow enough to keep him alive, but also close enough to put him in a state where he could die”
“Is there anything we could do?”
“We bring him upstairs into one of the bedrooms, I’ll see what we have to bring him back and until then, we do what we can with limited resources and have a couple people go out there to look for more supplies, this is a big city, I’m sure there’s more. I’ll let the others know and you bring him up” 
“Can you Blaire?” Dylan asked her meaning that her ankle is still somewhat twisted,”Yeah I can” She probably knew Dylan could because he finally healed,”Blaire, get his legs, Dylan, get his arms” So they carried him up while I looked for medical supplies or tools to work with.
