Zach Herron, the smallest, youngest, and most fragile member of why don't we. Zach has been getting hate for as long as he can remember. One day, a fan calls out to him during a show, making everything worse. Will the hate get to him?
*WARNINGS*
...
I shift, not liking the ache in my stomach. I had gotten sick from the recent beach trip, and I hated it.
"Zach time for your medicine." Jack says softly, rubbing his hand over my hair. My eyes barely open before closing again.
"Zach baby." He chuckles. My eyes lazily lift once more as I look at him tiredly. I shift, whining quietly as I bury my head in the pillow.
"You ready for your medicine baby?" He asks just as soft as before, his fingers running through my hair.
"M'tired." I mumble, my eyes closing once more.
"I know bub. You've been sleeping all day. You need some medicine." I whine in response, shying away from him.
"Zach.." He says, his tone stern.
"I don't want it. Just wanna sleep." He sighs, sitting on the bed.
"I wasn't asking Zach. You're taking your medicine."
"No. Just let me sleep." I huff, slowly relaxing into the bed.
"Zach sit up I'm not doing this." He snaps. I look at him, my face falling. I sit up, not looking at him as he hands me the pill. I take it and the water, popping it in before washing it down with the water. I hand it back, laying down and turning away from him.
"Zach I'm sorry." He sighs.
He didn't mean it. He literally sighed it out. He's just annoyed with me.
"Zach?" I stay looking at the wall, my lip wavering.
"Baby please." I can't help but sniffle, the boy immediately noticing.
"Hey hey hey, I'm sorry Bubba please don't cry. I'm sorry." He moves on the bed so he could see my face, moving the hair from my face.
"I'm sorry." I sniffle.
"No no bubba it's okay. I'm sorry for being so harsh. Get some rest okay? We need that cute butt of yours smiling and filled with energy." He says, placing a kiss on my head. I nod, my eyes slowly closing.
"Love you." I mumble.
"I love you too bubba." I could hear him leave the room before I opened my eyes again, looking at the wall.
Does he really love me? Maybe I'm just annoying him and he doesn't want to tell me. I frown, glancing at my blanket. I could hear the door creak open and I quickly closed my eyes, pretending to sleep.
"Is he doing any better?" Jonah whispers.
"No. He didn't even want his medication." Jack sighs softly.
"Have you set the appointment up yet?" Appointment??
"Yea for Friday. He should be better by then." Appointment for what? Where were they taking me?
"I know it's tough but he needs the therapy. He needs help." Oh fuck no.
"Let's let him sleep. Cmon." The second the door shuts I sit up, looking at it. I was not going to go to some Institution.
I slide out of bed, slipping off my sweat pants and putting on some black jeans. I felt like crap but if I stayed they'd put me in a hospital. I slip on my shoes, looking at the desk in the corner. I bite my lip before grabbing a paper and quickly scribbling down a note. I grab my wallet but leave my phone. I knew they'd find me if I had it.
I glance over the room one last time, setting the note on the bed before leaving out the window. I suck in a breath, putting my hood up and shoving my hands in my hoodie pocket before walking down the street. I walk and walk before I realized I needed a phone. I head to the nearest store and buy a cheap iPhone, heading to a park to set it up. Once it was all set up I call an uber to meet me in a spot nearby.
I get to the spot, getting in the car before booking a hotel suite on my phone. I was able to check in in a few hours so I decided to go shopping for clothes and food, having not brought any with me.
After buying something clothes and a small bag, I head to my hotel to check in. When I walked in, a smile came to my face. It was beautiful. I set my items on the dresser, walking out onto the balcony. It was beautiful and looked over the ocean. This was much needed. I sit on the chair, kicking my feet up as I place my hands in my hoodie pockets.
My eyes land on the rock, and my smile falls.
"I'm sorry jack." I whisper," but I can't let you send me away."
