Virgil POV
Its the first day of school and fourth period English. I fuckin hate English. The teachers nice but he's old and doesn't give us anything to do, especially because it's the first day. I took my anti rejection meds this morning but I ran out of anti nausea for the anti rejection meds. So, I'm gonna puke. I stand up and walk straight out the door. The teacher doesn't say anything. All the teachers know about the thing with my heart and they know I get nauseous. I walk down to the bathroom trying not to get noticed. I walk in and run into the stall and throw up everything I ate for breakfast. A couple minutes after I started throwing up I here the door open and chanting from voices I know all to well.
"SICK BOI SICK BOI SICK BOI!" They all chant. This is Derek and his crew of a bunch of meat heads. They like to bully mostly Dante and I because of his skin and because I'm constantly sick.
I cough and throw up more into the toilet.
"Hey sick boi? What's the excuse today? Food poisoning? Allergic reaction? Stomach flu?" Derek whispers into my ear. I throw up more at the sound of his voice. The chanting gets louder and suddenly it stops when the door opens. It's probably a teacher. Whatever no more torture for me at least.
Roman POV
A few minutes before
Oh shit that's the bell. Where am I supposed to go though? Fourth period is English, but where is that. I suppose I could ask the office. I could do that but I don't know where the office is. I'm walking through a hallway looking around trying to find room 204. 114? Ugghhhhhhh I'm on the wrong floor. WHERE TF AM I?! Omg I'm lost.
Is that chanting? Sick boy? I follow the noise to the boys bathroom. I open the door and it falls silent. The tallest guy walks up to me.
"What's up pretty boy?" The tall guy says to me.
"Uhh hi?" I say nervously.
"Derek that's the model kid that transferred here!" One of the other guys say.
"Ohhh~ pretty boy model. What can I help you with your grace." He says giving me a little bow. Wtf is going on. I hear someone throw up loud and violently and coughing a lot. One of the guys punches the stall door the kid was in.
"QUIET IN THERE!!" The guy screams.
"U-uh is he okay?" I say pointing to the stall he punched.
"Oh of course he is. He's just sick~" he says in a baby voice batting his eyes. Ew.
"Yeah the poor baby is just sick~" the guy in the stall says taking his foot and pushing the kids head into the toilet seat.
"Hey stop that!" I yell walking over and pushing the guy off the kid.
"Ooooohh~ pretty boi has some balls." The taller guy says walking towards me with his chest out. Ughh I hate it when guys do that. You look like a chicken trying to get a rooster to respect you.
He was about to say something and then a loud thud is heard from beside us. I look over and see the kid that was throwing up passed out on the floor.
"Oh shit! We gotta get out of here!!" The tallest dude says opening the door and all the guys pile out the door. Assholes. I run over to the kid and sit him up. I check to make sure he's breathing and he is heavily. I check his pulse and it's fast and uneven. He must've just passed out.
"Come on kid wake up!" I say shaking his shoulder a bit. His eyes flutter open and look at me.
"Hey kid, my names Roman. What yours?" I ask looking at him. He looks at me tired and turns towards the toilet again and throws up a lot.
After a few minutes he backs up and puts his back to the stall wall. He looks at me pissed off.
"Why are you here? Come to give me a swirly in my own vomit?" I says wiping his mouth with his sleeve of his dark purple hoodie.
"What? No-ew! It's my first day here and I'm lost. I'm supposed to be in English, but I heard chanting and well here we are." I say to the smaller boy who looks exhausted.
"Mrs. Kirtis or Mr. Landform?" He asks resting his head in his hand.
"Mr. Landform? I think?" I say pulling out my schedule. I give it to him and he looks at it confused.
"Huh?" He says looking at my schedule.
"What?" I ask confused.
"We both have the same schedules except I have band when you have drama." He says handing my schedule back to me.
"Oh cool so I guess your stuck with me." I say with a chuckle. He chuckled and looks at me. "I guess I am. Virgil Storm." He says with a wave.
"Roman Kingsley." I say standing up and holding out my hand. He takes it and stands up. He gets up and holds his chest and gasps.
"What's wrong are you okay?" I ask holding his arm so he doesn't fall.
"Okay! I need you to listen to me very carefully. I need you to take me across the hall. That's the nurses office. Tell her to call my mom and tell them to tell my mom it's a code white. Can you do that for me please Roman?" He says looking at me desperately. I nod and pick him up bridle style. I run across the hallway to the nurses office. I open the door and lay him down on the couch they have in there. He starts to sit up and down like he's getting shocked.
"NURSE!" I yell and she comes running in.
"He said call his mom and tell her it's a code white." I say frantically and look at her. She runs to her office and gets on the phone.
Moments later
A boy around my age comes running in the room. He is tan and..pale? He has a leather jacket on with a yellow and white striped t-shirt. He has a yellow beanie with black ripped jeans and really beat up combat boots.
"Who are you?!" He yells angrily at me. I put my hands up to try and not get punched.
"He was in the bathroom throwing up and then he passed and then he told me to bring him here." I say quickly with my hands still up.
"Okay what did you tell her to to tell our mom?" He say looking at me.
"Code white?" I say confused because I don't know what that exactly means. Wtf is going on. I'm supposed to be in English right now.
He looks at me scared and then runs over to Virgil who keeps getting shocked.
"Virgil, what's going on?" He kneels down next to him on the couch. He doesn't say anything. There are tears streaming down his face now. Poor kid.
"Dante, honey, your moms are outside with the car." The nurse says while on the phone.
"Thank you very much." He says and turns towards me.
"Can you help me carry him? I don't wanna hurt him." He says scared. I nod my head and walk back over to Virgil and pick him up. I walk out the door and follow the yellow kid down the hallway.
We get to the main entrance and go outside. Outside there are two older ladies ones in tears and the other one looks scared. I walk over to them and they open the car door.
"Can you just lay him down in there sweetie?" I do as I'm told and lay him down on the seat. He looks at me and gives me a thumbs up.
"Dante, sweetie, go around and sit next to him. Make sure he doesn't fall off the seat please." The lady in tears says. He nods and runs around to the other side of the car. The scared lady looks at me and shakes my hand.
"Thank you so much for helping our son. What's your name?" The lady crying asks me.
"Roman Kingsley. And it was not a problem I just wanted to help."
"MOM WE GOTTA GO NOW!" The kid in yellow screams from the car.
"Ahhhhh!" Virgil screams as he gets shocked again.
"Ah! Okay okay. Good bye Roman." They get into the car and race off quickly.
The bell then rings. Fuck I missed 4th period.
Virgil POV
It hurts badly. Really badly. My pacemaker is malfunctioning and it's giving me electric shocks to my heart because it thinks my hearts not beating. The car stops with a screech and I hear screaming but it's distorted. I pulled out of the car and is put on a gurney. Ow it hurts so bad. Tears and more tears stream down my face. We're in a new room now. Cool. Something heavy was put on my chest and it stops the shocking stops. Oh my god. That hurt like a bitch.
Trauma surgeon POV
"Virgil Storm Age 16 Pacemaker malfunction causing the pacemaker to zap his heart every 12 seconds. Get him to trauma room 2 and page cardio!" I yell as I roll on the gurney and grab a blank chart. I run back over to the trauma room and shut the curtain.
"Someone get me a big magnet, NOW!!" Cardio screams. One of the interns come back with a round magnet and hands it to cardio. Cardio places it over the kids pacemaker. After it stops I can here the kid sobbing.
"Was he awake during all of that?!" I say and cardio looks at me and shakes her head yes.
"What's his name?" She whispers to me.
"Virgil Storm."
"Virgil, can you hear me?" She says holding his hand. He nods his head.
"Does that feel better?" She says and he shakes his head.
"Okay let's get him to a recovery room and call tech. Dr. Mary your on this case. I will go inform the family in what's happening." I say walking out of the room and shutting the curtain.
I look into the waiting room and see 2 families.
"Virgil Storm?" I say trying to figure out which one is his. The boy that's pacing and the 2 moms look up. I walk over to them.
"Hello Mrs. and Mrs. Storm, my name is Dr. Brandy and I helped your son today. His pacemaker malfunctioned and the shocking part of it would not stop shocking his already beating heart. We put a magnet of his chest to counter act the pacemaker to make it stop defibrillating his heart. We called tech and there going to come and see if they can fix it. He is in room 124 it's on the 5th floor. Dr. Mary is on this case so you will meet her up there." I say reading off his chart.
"Okay thank you so much Doctor." The boy in yellow says walking away.
"Thank you very much Doctor. You are greatly appreciated." One of the Moms say walking off with the other.
Dante POV
Come on can this stupid elevator go any faster!!
*DING*
Finally! I walk into the empty elevator with my moms and hit floor five. After a couple seconds we are there. I get up and walk fast towards the nurses desk.
"Excuse me?" I ask the nurse at the desk.
"Yes sweetheart?" She says to me with a smile.
"Sorry to bother you but do you know where room 124 is?" I say trying to be as polite as I can.
"It's not a problem sweetheart. It's the 3rd room done that hall." She says pointing down the fall to my right.
"Thank you so much! Have a nice day!" I say walking away quickly. I walk down the hall to the third door. 124 here it is. I open the door to see a doctor talking to Virgil. I walk into the room and stand there quietly. The doctor looks over to me.
"Hello, is there something I can help you with?" She says looking at me.
"That's my brother." Virgil says quietly and tired.
"Oh alright. My names is Dr. Mary and I'll be his doctor for however long you are here." She says walking over to me shaking my hand.
"Oh okay. I'm Dante by the way." I say shaking her hand.
"Nice to meet you Dante. Where are you parents may I ask?" She asks letting go of my hand.
"There at the front desk signing all the paperwork." I say putting my hands in my pockets.
"Alright thank you I will go speak to them. It was nice meeting you Dante." She says walking out of the room. I walk over to Virgil and sit in the chair next to him.
"Hey crackhead.." Virgil says tired.
"Sup dipshit. How you feeling?" I say sitting in the chair and pulling in foreword.
"Not like 100 volts of electricity going through my heart. That's for sure." He says with a small laugh. The door opens and both moms, Dr. Mary, and another doctor comes in.
"Hi baby, how are you?" Mama says walking over and kisses Virgils head.
"Hello Virgil, this is the tech guy for the pacemaker. He will be looking at your heart and see what went wrong with the pacemaker." Dr. Mary explains.
"Alright." Virgil says quietly.
The tech guy walks over with the ultrasound.
"Virgil this is going to be cold." The tech guy says squirting the gel on his scar from when he got the pacemaker. He puts the wand on the gel and shows the pace maker and the line from the heart to the pacemaker.
"Well there's the problem. The line from your pacemaker is almost severed. It's hanging by the thread. Your very lucky to be alive right now." The tech guy says to Virgil.
"You need a new pacemaker Virgil. That will be surgery, but not a big one. It takes about 1-2 hours. I'm going to get you ready for surgery. I will go get the paperwork." He says wiping off the goo. He grabs his stuff and walks out of the room.
"I was in English 4th period. Then I had to throw up because I ran out of anti nausea meds. Why did this happen?" Virgil says very defeated.
"I'm sorry Virgil." I say holding his hand."Virgil we need to prep you for surgery"
