Bad Boy of serenity

Drinking Has Consequences

My head is killing me right now and I need to get Autumn up to bed.” He thought to himself as he walked up the stairs, turning the lights off. Once he got upstairs he grabbed a water bottle and some aspirin, while still holding Autumn as he walked to her bedroom. “Me and Autumn have been sleeping in the same room since me and Zoey moved in, so I guess it’s our room” Zed thought as he laid Autumn on the bed. Zed then made his way to the bathroom, before climbing into bed. He put a trash can on either side of the bed for each of them as he already had a feeling of how all the alcohol was going to go over in the morning. He climbed into bed and pulled the comforter over the two of them before pulling Autumn into him and falling asleep. 

Zed groaned as the sunlight coming in the window made his head feel worse then what it already did. Zed looked over and saw Autumn still sound asleep. He sighed and ran his hand over his face as he remembered that he needed to go clean the basement before Gabe and Zoey got home. He grabbed his phone and looked at the time as he threw on some sweats before heading to the basement. As he got down to the basement he was surprised to see that everything around the bar was cleaned up. He quickly ran over to the red room when he saw the door was open. He walked in and saw that everything was cleaned up and put back. Zed quickly closed the door as he heard footsteps coming down the basement stairs. Zed gulped as he swa Gabe come down the stairs. “Looks like you and Autumn had fun last night” Gabe said with a smirk as he watched Zed go pale. “Uhh...uhh. Yeah we did, we had dinner and studied and then we watched a movie before we went to bed” Zed told him as he watched Gabes smirk grow bigger. “Ohh really? Then why was the basement and the red room trashed when I got home this morning?” Gabe asked with a raised eyebrow and giant smirk on his face. “What...what are you talking about?” Zed asked as he felt himself get very nervous, as he realized that Gabe clearly knew something. “Come on Zed. I know you know what i’m talking about.” Gabe said as he took a seat at one of the bar stools. “Autumn said no one nows about the red room except her,” Zed said as he glared at Gabe, causing Gabe to lose his smirk and glare back at the tall boy in front of him. “Does Autumn know that you know about the red room?” Zed spat at Gabe as he felt his anger building up. “ No she doesn’t. I came down the day that she had all the stuff delivered.” “Ohh'' Zed said as he headed for the stairs. When he got back upstairs he was confused when he didn’t see Autumn in bed. As he walked into their room he heard something coming from the bathroom. “Autumn are you ok?” Zed asked as he opened the door. Once he opened the door he immediately ran over to Autumn’s side. Autumn was pale and had her head leaned over the toilet as she emptied her already empty stomach. “It’s ok babe, I’m here” Zed said as he held her hair back for her. “Z-Zed” “Yeah babe?” “I don’t feel good…” Was the last thing Autumn said before she passed out in Zed’s arms. “Gabe!” Zed yelled as he carried Autumn out of the bathroom and slipped his shoes on before throwing some shorts and a T-shirt on Autumn and running down the stairs.“What’s wrong?” Gabe asked as he entered the living room. “Autumn was throwing up and then she passed out” “Shit Zed, did you guys drink last night?” “Yeah we have been drinking a lot since we started dating and me and Zoey moved in. Why?” Zed asked as Gabe motioned for him to lay Autumn on the couch. “Autumn has a rare autoimmune disease. The more she drinks, especially with her meds, her organs can start to shut down.” Zed was shocked as he looked from Autumn to Gabe. “S-she never said anything. I never see her take any meds” Zed said as he looked at Gabe who was now calling 911. 

Once the paramedics got Autumn in the Ambulance, Zed followed them to the hospital. Once Zed got into his car he started punching the steering wheel as the tears fell down his face. “How could I be so fucking stupid and not notice what was happening?” Zed thought as he drove to the hospital. Zed had had a little panic attack after GAbe called 911, so Gabe called Ty and Zoey and told them to meet them at the hospital. As soon as Zed walked into the hospital he was attacked with hugs from his sister and Ty. “Zed what happened?” Zoey calmly asked as she let go of her brother. “I-I don’t know. Autumn never told me that she was sick” Zed told his sister as he saw Gabe walk out from the emergency room and into the waiting room. “Is she going to be ok?” Zed asked as he fought to choke back a sob. “They're going to run some tests to make sure, but Zed don’t blame yourself. It’s not your fault, you didn’t know.” Gabe said as he tried to console the tall boy next to him. After about an hour a doctor came out to update them on Autumn. “I’m looking for the family of Autumn Weatherspoon” “Here” The group of teens said as they walked toward the doctor. “Are any of you related to her?” “I am her cousin” Gabe said as the doctor motioned for him to follow.Gabe turned back around and motioned for Zed to follow them. Once they got to Autumn’s room, Zed about threw up when he saw all of the wires and machines hooked up to her. “Autumn’s organs are working overtime from the alcohol, so we have put her in a medically induced coma. After a few days we will wean her out of the coma if her organs are doing better” The doctor told the two boys before he left the room. Zed walked over to the bed and collapsed to his knees as he grabbed Autumn’s hand. “I’m so sorry baby. I would have never let you drink if I had known.” Zed said as he cried into Autumn's hair.
