A bright light was what Darryl first saw as he was waking up. followed by a strong smell of.. alcohol? he also heard a steady beeping next to him. he sat up only to fall back down, wincing in pain as his head instantly started to hurt. he had no idea what happened. he looked around more and saw that he was in a hospital room. he had many tubes, wires, and needles connected to him.
"How did this happen?" he thought. he last remembered walking out of the store then... nothing? why couldn't he remember what happened? He started to get overwhelmed trying to remember what possibly could've happened. his breathing quickened as he heard the beeping next to him grow faster. His vision started to give out but it looks like he saw... people...three of them. One seemed to be calling his name. "Darryl! Darryl! Can you hear me? It's Zak! It's gonna be okay, just calm down.."
Zak..? Wait...Zak was here? does he know what happened?? The other two people appeared to be a doctor and a nurse. He felt a sharp pinch in his arm before passing out.

Zak was walking back to Darryl's room after eating some lunch. When they had arrived earlier, they took Darryl away from him and were just notified that he could go see him. Of course, everyone left again but that was okay with him. He was also notified that through the five hours they've been there, he hasn't woken up, but he still wanted to see him. He was so concerned for Darryl and cared about him more than anything.
He was told that he was in room C1, on the fifth floor. he approached the room but only heard a lot of beeping. He opened the door to see Darryl wide awake. But not in a good way. He was hyperventilating and was in a big panic. This startled Zak. "U-um help! someone! get a doctor..!" within seconds two nurses were in there.
Zak went up to him to see if he could help. He took his hand and tried to calm him. "Darryl! Darryl! Can you hear me? It's Zak! It's gonna be okay, just calm down.." He was never very good and comforting people, and he knew it. but he just felt different around Darryl. Like he was able to help him with anything and everything. He was told to step aside as he watched a nurse inject him with something to calm him down before he passed out.
"Wh...what happened?" Zak asked. "I'm not sure.." The nurse replied. "He might've just woken up and been a bit confused or startled...or both.. go alert his doctor and see if we can get someone to watch him till he wakes up so this doesn't happen again," she said. With this the second nurse hurried out of the room. "oh..and um.. sir, it's... Zak, right?" the nurse asked. This worried Zak. the tone in her voice didn't sound too great.
"U-um.. yeah.." he replied. "When you brought your friend in today, we noticed something...cuts. On his arms. They appear to be cuts from self-harming. Do you know if Darryl has ever done or attempted such a thing?"
