Let It Burn Chapter Twenty-Eight

"Sophie, do you think this will really help Dan?" Phil chewed on his bruised lip. "It may help him, I think it could be a good thing." Sophie reassured Phil with a small smile. "What if it doesn't? What if he doesn't feel he needs help?" Sophie nodded "you can't think like that Phil, and if it truly doesn't work wouldn't you still love him as much as the day you met him?" Sophie asked facing Phil "yeah it's just that, he's been through a lot with battling against himself." Phil rubbed at his tired eyes leaning back against the headrest of Sophie's car. "Sophie how long are these appointments?" Phil asked straightening up "well, they can be anywhere from an hour to more really." Phil nodded as his gaze laid unsteadily on the glowing blue car clock. "Should we go look for Dan? I mean it's been not that long but I'm worried." Phil bit his lip again hoping nothing happened to Dan. "Sure" Sophie unbuckled her seatbelt as she got out od the car. Phil stood behind her "I hope he's alright" Sophie nodded "me too" she replied as the two made their way through the parking lot and into the building. A pale taller therapist came running in thier direction. "Have you guy's seen Dan?" She asked her eyes wide as she looked around again for the third time. "No we haven't" Sophie answered softly. Phil felt beyond queasy as he tried pushing away his thoughts. "Bathroom?" Phil requested the therapist, Arden, nodded "straight ahead" she pointed out in front of her. "Thank you" Phil ran as fast as his legs could take him. His stomach sloshing from the water he drank as he rammed against the bathroom door. He slid to the toilet just in time to release his unsettled fluids. He heaved against the toilet feeling weak as he blurrily looked out at the floor. His heart sank when he saw an arm. "D-Dan!" He called hoarsly as his throat swallowed in sharp air. He felt his upper strength weaken but he pushed on grabbing ahold of the top of the toilet lid. He got up slowly with shaky knees as he flushed it. He patted down the wall with each step he shakily took. His blurred vision met with the back of a brunettes head. "Oh god!" Phil pushed back the bile that rose in his throat as he grabbed Dan's arms. He felt weaker by the minute "I have to save you" Phil cried as he tried to grab Dan. His arms shook violently as he got ahold of Dan's frame. Phil looked at his mess of a brown mop top. He let out a small cry biting on his tongue to suppress it. He turned the door knob and threw open the door. His vision slowly coming back as he struggled to walk. His legs wiggling under him as he walked back to Sophie and Arden. "He- head" Phil completed as he held Dan up. Sophie gasped in horror "Phil, what happened?" She rushed to his side as he began to fall backwards. She grabbed Phil "Arden get the couch or something!" She shouted as she struggled to hold up both boys. "On it!" Arden shouted racing a couch towards Sophie. The soles of her shoes squeaking loudly as she set the couch behind Sophie. Sophie placed Phil down gently and placed Dan next to him. "Call-" Arden nodded as she called the ambulance. "PJ!" Sophie exclaimed when he answered his phone. "Sophie-" Sophie cut him off "Dan and Phil are not well. They're being transported to the hospital now." PJ let out a breath "okay I'll meet you there" he promised hanging up the phone.

Sirens flashed and wailed coming to a stop at the front entrance. Two cars pulled up as medical technicians pulled in gurney's grabbing Dan and placing him on the first. "I'm fine, just make sure he's fine please" Phil bit his lip. The technians lifted him on the second gurney. The boys went in separate cars as the cars roared through traffic. Sophie quickly ran to her car "bye Arden!" She shouted running out the door and to her car wasting no time as she buckled up and drove after the two EMT cars. 

"Its not looking good here" replied one of the technians who glanced at Dan. "Why not?" Spoke another "see for yourself" the first technician backed up letting the second one examine Dan for injuries. Dan's breath was a shutter as the oxygen mask went over his face.

"What's wrong with Dan?" Phil asked as his eyes started to slip shut. "We don't know yet. Mr. Lester, stay with us" 

"Drive faster!" Shouted everyone in both cars as Dan and Phil worsened.
