Istart to say "Bam’s always in the hospital", but Ville buries his face in my neck, sobbing, and I know that it’s serious. I hold him tight and rub his back. After his sobs calm, I ask what happened. He sits up, rubs his eyes then explains.
"April said that Bam went on a drinking binge the past few days. This afternoon, she sent Dunn up to see if he could talk some sense into Bam. Dunn couldn’t find Bam in his room, so Dunn looked in yours, and there he did find Bam, with his wrists slit. Dunn yelled for April to call 911. The ambulance came and they rushed Bam to the hospital. April finally talked to the doctor and he said that Bam’s lucky. If he had lain there any longer, he would be dead. But, he had lost a lot of blood and combined with the amount of alcohol in him, he had become comatose." Ville stops talking.
"But he’s stable? He won’t…" I swallow and try again.
"Bam’s not going to… he won’t leave us?" Ville pulls me in for a hug. I wrap my arms around him tightly.
"No, Kaunis, he’s not going to leave us," Ville whispers. I break down and sob with relief, and with heart break. Bam tried to kill himself, and somehow I knew it was my fault. I start sobbing harder with that thought. Ville just holds me tighter.
Ville’s point of view
Skylar lies curled up on her side, dried tear stains on her face. I know she blames herself. Bam’s an asshole, always has been and probably always will be, but she loves him anyways. And, honestly, I don’t mind that she loves him. It shows that Skylar’s not as broken as she thinks she is.
Skylar starts twitching and whimpering. I reach over and softly touch her back. She rolls over and reaches for me. I pull her onto my chest, wrap my arms around her tightly, and quietly tell her it’s okay, I’m here for her. She settles down and her breathing becomes even once more. I kiss her head then grab the phone off the night stand. I call Lafayette. He answers on the third ring.
"Bitch, do you know what time it is?" he snaps.
"Sorry, but it’s important," I reply. He sighs.
"What happened?" he asks. I tell him the events so far.
"Damn, I’m sorry. So what do you need me to do?"
"I’m leaving tomorrow, and I didn’t want Skylar staying here by herself, but with what happened, I definitely don’t what her alone. I’m afraid of what she might do. I know she blames herself, but I’m going to talk to her tomorrow one more time about going to West Chester. If she still says no, will you let her stay with you for a while?"
"Of course, boyfriend, anything for her," Lafayette replies. I let out a sigh of relief.
"Thank you. I’ll repay you with whatever you want." He laughs.
"Boyfriend, the only thing I want is your sweet ass in my bed, but that will never happen, so I’ll just accept your thank you." I say thank you again then hang up. I close my eyes and try to sleep.
