Empty

(Boyinabad And Jaiden didn't colab for this song in my story btw :3. Sorry Dave)

Jaiden was held up in her hospital bed. It had been 2 days since her friends decided to leave her. She felt like there was no more meaning. She was doing it for them, so that they didn't have to see her as fat and ugly. She just wanted people to be happy with her appearance she turned to the side of the bed where a therapist sat in one of the uncomfortably scratchy chairs that her room seemed to be supplied with.
"Jaiden. I think that you should try talking to your friends. They seem to hel-" She was cut off.
"Help? The people who made me stuck here, not having any energy to do the physical therapy to get my body working again. Actually, the reason why I'm here in the first place? You want them to help?" She asked. The other woman sighed and stood up. Jaiden has to turn her head up to the huge woman's length.
"Jaiden. I was given some of your old journals. I seen you used to write songs, maybe you should try that again. U seemed more relaxed in your writing when you wrote." Jaiden glances down at her hands.
"Sure. If I can have a notebook and a guitar then sure, I'll write a song." Jaiden said this in a mocking tone almost. The therapist just nodded and grabbed a extra notebook out of her satchel and a guitar across the room. She placed them on Jaiden's lap and left the room. Jaiden sighed. She didn't need this right now. She needed to see her friends, but they didn't want to see her. She grabbed the guitar and played a delightful harmony
------------------------
"James. We should get up. We need to eat and you should probably go have some coffee. You've slept for 2 days straight and still look exhausted." James rolled out of Adams arms and tucked the blanket tightly around him and under him. He felt like paper, fragile and blank. He felt himself being lifted to his feet by Adam, but her just continued to look to the ground. Adam frowned and grabbed James' chin, lifting it up so he was looking him directly in the eyes. He leaned down and kissed him on the lips. It was deep and passionate, despite the emotionless James. Adam scooped James up in his arms, bridal style. "Hey, look at me." Adam said, James kept trying to glance away but eventually started at Adam. "I'm here for you. Ok?" Adam smiled like a doofus. James couldn't resist that stupid smile. James lips slightly curled and he nodded his head.
"I'm going to make you bacon now, and your going to enjoy it." (I bet James would enjoy Adams meat OwO) James smiled and nodded again.
------------------------
Jaiden sat in her bed, adjusting the notes on her guitar. She hummed a steady beat. After running the guitar to the proper notes for the proper strings, she began playing. The beat was steady, a lot like her humming. Before she knew it she was belching out lyrics from her note book. She came to the course. She hummed between beats and then adjusted her fingers "inside it's em-em-em-empty, I know it's wrong, I'm looking, but I can't see myself." Jaiden began to pluck the strings of her guitar more quickly, more confidently, and with more force. "Inside it's em-em-em-em-empty. I know it's wrong but it's so hard to stop it alone. She continued playing and singing when eventually she got to the bridge of the song. "I can reach out, to someone not like me. If you ask for help it doesn't makes you weak." She sang gently. "I can reach out, to someone not like me, I can help my mind and learn to trust my body." She repeated this three times. Then repeated the chorus, she felt like she had closure. Like the worlds problems were gone and the only thing standing in her way was food and broken bonds. Almost on cue with her finishing, Tim walked in.
"Nice song." He said. Jaiden notes the pain in his voice.
"Tim. I'm so sorry. I should have told you about this." She gestured to her stomach.
"Yeah. You should have." Thats all? No yelling. No tears. Jaiden has to admit that she was happy about this even though he looked terrible. He hadn't showered since she got there, he was covered in sweat and his eyes were blood shot.
"Tim come here." She moved to the side of the bed and then Tim sat. "Go home. Go take a shower. I promise I'll eat and I get out tomorrow. And then you can watch me and make sure I eat supper and breakfast every day. I'm going to work to fix this huge mistake." Tim looked like he was going to cry. Jaiden reaches her neck out and kissed his forehead and then hugged him.
"I'm going home I guess than. Plus you have another two people who won't be as easy as me to get too." Tim reminded her. She nodded and Tim left. She grabbed her phone and ring up Adam.
"Hey Jaiden." Adam said. It seemed like Adam was already on her side.
"Hey. Can you do me a small favour?" She asked.
"Sure. What is it?" Adam asked. Jaiden heard James in the background talking.
"Can you bring James here. And yourself obviously. I think I need to apologize to you guys." Jaiden bit her lip in anticipation.
"Yeah. I'll try. I'll be there in 20." Jaiden silently pumped her fist in the air.
"Ok see you soon."
------------------------
"Adam where are we going?" James asked for the millionth time.
"Don't worry, it's a place to help cheer you up." Adam smiles at James and grabbed his hand on the console, flashing a smile at him. James didn't smile back.
"What happens if I don't like surprises." James asked looking out the window.
"You do. Remember? You have your boyfriend sitting right next to you." Adam pulled up a longer narrower road, and making it almost to the top. "Ok, grab this and tie it around your eyes." James did as he was told with the bandana.
"I swear to god if this is a sex thing.." James trailed off. Adam chuckled on the seat beside him, making sure the blindfold was tied properly. He drove up the hill. James continued wiggling his nose to try and get the blindfold loose, he didn't succeed. Adam parked into the hospital parking lot. He got out and led James inside. James felt the wind nip at him and started rubbing his arms. Before they entered the building, Adam pulled out ear plugs and shoved them in James ears.
"Wha-what!?" James shouted. He felt Adam reassure him with a small shoulder rub, and a kiss on the cheek. Adam led James in the building, up the elevator, and down the hall. Jaiden's room was next. Adam entered and unplugged James ears, and untied the blindfold. The fabric slid off like water on a cutting board. James stood in astonishment.
"I-what, why." He turned to Adam. "Why'd you bring me here! Let me out! Now!" James shouted and screamed. But every time he made an attempt to go and open the door or slam into it with his body, Adam held him back. Adam grabbed both of James arms, placed them to his side, and turned him around.
"James, just look at her at least. Let her explain."(let me explain studios. Ok I'm sorry)
"James. Please listen to me." Jaiden whimpered. James nodded with a sour look in his face. He tapped Adams wrists with his fingers, letting him know he can unrestraint him. "Do you think ig was easy? To just starve myself... It was hard. It started in college." James hissed a little at this. "And it was mostly because.. I wanted control. Over my life, over my body. And it was terrible. After time I noticed that I needed help, so I got a therapist. She didn't help too much, it eventually got to the point where I starved myself that long. Where I.." She trailed off. James' gaze was a little softer then before, until she started playing. She began playing her new song, it's lyrics filled James' head. "Inside it's em-em-em-empty I know it's wrong but it's hard to stop it alone." She sang. She continued to the point where James has to grab the guitar from her hands and place it to the side in order for James to not cry. "James.. I'm-" Jaiden was cut off by James hugging her.
"I.. I want to forgive you. So bad. But I think that we need to work towards that more." Jaiden nodded, holding back her own tears as well. "Ok. I've got to go home now. Drive me. Home." James said to Adam. Adam blandly nodded. He opened the door. James blurted a goodbye as he basically ran out of the room. Jaiden shouted goodbye after him. Finally. Jaiden thought, a clean slate.
