Fix You - A The Script/Danny O'Donoghue Fanfic

Chapter 21

Shit. My head. What is that smell? Hospital. Like I could forget this place. I force my eyes open, Shawn was there looking all cute and sleeping. I turned my head to the side, I was gripping Danny’s hand. For a moment I was so angry he was here. Then I remembered everything, what he did for me, part of me wishes he had left it and let me die. That is what I wanted after all. But the other part is so glad somebody cares, so happy to have proof they care about me. I looked closely at his face. I realised it was covered in blood, what the fuck? His eyes opened slowly.

“Hey darling. Did you want me to go?” He looked so sad asking.

“No. I’m sorry I pushed you away.” I sighed, looking at my feet.

“I’m sorry for being an ass. You are my closest friend. You really are.” He came in for a hug, I felt so much better. “Just don’t tell the boys.” He added with a laugh.

“You realise you have blood all over your face.” I pointed out, realising it was mine. I did that when I tried to stop him crying.

“Fuck. That explains why my clothes are sticking to me like a second skin.” He moaned. I looked at his clothes, the black clothes were tainted with a sticky red, and it really had stained badly. There was a lot of blood too.

“Use the shower in there.”

“Genius.” He ran off looking happier, I guess that’s because we made up. I can never forget what he did for me; even though I was drunk and dying, I can never forget what he said to me. But as I was thinking, I realised the idiot didn’t have any clothes. I grabbed my phone. ‘Could you bring clothes for the idiot? X And come say hi, I miss you wise one <3’ I got a reply seconds later. ‘On our way x’ And boy am I glad.

“Houston we have a problem.” Danny shouted out after about 15 minutes. It had me laughing and woke Shawn up. “So not funny. I’ll walk out naked.” He threatened, making me laugh more.

“Glen’s bringing clothes.” I managed to gasp. So we waited, it took longer than I would have thought, Danny was just sat in the bathroom naked. Whilst I talked to Shawn about life.

“You know, you could have called any one of us.” Shawn stated.

“Shawn. I was drunk. Angry. Upset. And not talking to Danny. Making me even more upset. Things just happened to be in a bad place when I needed them to be good. It was a bad day. The circumstances sucked.”  What could I say? I can’t lie after everything I’ve put them through. So I went for the truth. “It was so real, and I wanted it to stop.” I know Danny can hear me. That’s why I carried on. For him. “I couldn’t go through it again, them touching me the way they did.”

“What do you mean?” He asked confused. Concerned. I took a breath.

“Those men. They. Raped me. Well. One. But...” My voice seemed to echo in the silence of the room. Even the beeping machines seemed to have fallen silent. I’m fairly certain I heard Danny swearing, and possibly punching a wall. Before anymore questions could be asked Glen walked in, all smiles. Fake smiles but still, it’s the thought that counts right.
