Here's My Heart

chapter VII

Nash POV

I woke up with a huge headache. There was a guy next to me that I didn't recognize. He was still asleep so I got up and left the room.
I went into the bathroom. I took a piss and then opened the medicine cabinet and grabbed 2 ibuprofen. I popped them in and looked in the mirror. I immediately noticed that my face was pale. There were purple bags under my eyes. My eyes were bloodshot.
I walked out of the bathroom and down the stairs. David was cleaning up when I made my way downstairs. Plastic cups were all over the counters, along with a ton of other trash. There was shattered glass over by all of the alcohol. He looked up when he heard my footsteps. "Did you do it?" He asked in a weird tone. "Do what? A guy? 'Cause I did fuck a guy." I said chuckling. "Did you bring this?!" David yelled, holding up a small syringe. I pulled my sleeve up, suddenly noticing that I felt numb. I let out a sigh of relief when I didn't see any new marks.
David and I looked up at the stairs as someone was walking down. She had blonde hair with pink streaks in it and she had a yellow dress on. There were heels in her hand as she descended down the stairs.
The girl reached the last step and then collapsed, shaking violently. She was having a seizure. "David! Turn her onto her side toward me!" I yelled in a desperate voice. He rushed over and did as I asked. I removed my sweatshirt and lifted her head up, tucking it under her head. I kept checking my watch, waiting for the seizure to end. I checked for a heart beat to make sure it was still working. It was beating extremely fast, as expected with any seizure. I checked her breathing and it was fine.
About three minutes, the seizure stopped. I started to lay her on her back again but before I could, she started seizing again. David looked panicked but he didn't say or do anything. 4 minutes passed and she finally stopped seizing.
"David! Help me get her in the car." I said quickly. He listened and wrapped her arm around his neck and I did the same. "I'll drive. You need to stay with her." David said as he got her in the car. She was awake but wouldn't say anything. David and I got in, put our seatbelts on, and pulled out of the driveway.
We started driving but he wasn't going fast enough. "David! Drive faster!" I yelled impatiently. He sped up until we were going at least 50 miles per hour and we were there in no time. I got out of the car and picked her up bridal style.
We raced in and told a nurse what was happening. "All of the rooms are in use so you will need to wait." She said. "SHE HAD TWO FUCKING SEIZURES IN THE SPAN OF 7 MINUTES!" I screamed in anger. She looked terrified as she ran off in search of a room.
She came back a minute later. "T-there's a kid's room down the hall if you'll follow me." She said shakily. I followed her until we reached a small room. Just then, the girl in my arms started shaking again. I rushed to get her on the floor and on her side again. I checked my watch and it had only been 17 minutes since her last seizure.
The nurse pressed a button and a few seconds later doctors came rushing in. they started grabbing all sorts of medical supplies and started ushering David and I out of the room. we sat in the waiting room.
The last time I had dealt with someone having a seizure it was my brother. A tear slipped down my cheek at the thought of him. I felt my eyelids get heavy so I closed them. It didn't take long for darkness to find its way to me.

I walked up to her, slow, almost careful steps. Her back was towards me and she was sobbing. I tapped her on the shoulder and she looked up at me. Her eyes were glassy, they looked lighter than usual but they looked broken too. "Why?" she whimpered. I noticed that there was blood around her so I looked at her legs. There were deep cuts all over her thighs, bloodying the grey dress she was wearing. I helped her stand up and immediately hugged her. "Why did you do this to me?" she whimpered again. "I didn't." I said, confused as to what she meant. " You slept with her! You slept with another girl and that hurt me!" she screamed, clearly pissed. "I'm sorry. I was trying to get over you." I said honestly. All of a sudden she pulled out a knife. She put it to her wrist and sliced a vertical line on it and did the same to the other one. I let out a scream but it was too late. I was too late.
Someone started shaking me, making me jump. David was looking at me with worry. "Are you okay?" he asked. "Yeah I'm fine. Why?" i was getting freaked out by the look he was giving me. "Nash. You just let out a scream and it wasn't one that you would let out if you were scared. You looked fucking terrified." he says in complete worry. "It was Laura." I said in terror. He looked at me in confusion. "I don't know who that is." he said. "get me to her house. Please" I begged him. "let's go." he said as he stood up. I didn't hesitate to jump up and follow David out of the hospital.
I got in the car and gave him directions to her house. We got there pretty quickly but before I could get out david stopped me. David was an attractive guy. He had black hair with red streaks and his eyes are gorgeous. They're both green but one eye has a splotch of brown.
"Did you do heroin at my party?" David asked, snapping me out of my thoughts. "No." I said honestly. He nodded and let go of me. "You can go. My house is right down the street." I told him. He nodded again and I got out. I started walking towards the door. I heard David take off, no doubt going to his house to clean up.
Once I got to the door I knocked. I waited a minute but no one answered. I knocked again but there was still no answer. I looked up at the windows and saw something move in the room. I hesitated before I just walked into the house.
I walked around for a second to see if anyone was downstairs. I didn't see anyone so I went up the stairs. I checked one room but it was only a bathroom. I opened another door and the sight had me wishing I didn't.

A/N
Hey! It's me again! I know that this chapter is really short but next chapter will be really long and I fucked up my own schedule. I will be waiting until 2021 to update again because I want to take some time for myself. I also need to figure out how I'm going to write this next chapter up because last chapter was rough for me to write so next chapter will be a chapter that I'm probably getting drunk to write.
