TROUBLED
CHAPTER ONE -Zell gives up on life.
~
Squall headed for the cafeteria. Where the fuck was Zell? He was supposed to be meeting the rest of the group at the front gate for an important SeeD mission.
The cafeteria stunk of hotdogs and meatloaf, among other things. Squall was shocked to see that the hotdogs hadn't ran out yet, and even more surprised to Zell wasn't here chowing down like he usually would be.
Thinking Zell might've remembered by now, he headed back to the front gate where Quistis and the gang waited.
~
Quistis stood, arms crossed and tapping her foot impatiently. "Headmaster Cid will not be happy about our late departure."
Rinoa stood a few feet away staring out towards the ocean. Irvine paced, and Selphie sat on a step. After a few seconds of silence Irvine spoke up.
"Chill out Quistis, we won't get into any trouble."
"Maybe we won't Irvine, but Zell and Squall will, and they are part of this team."
Irvine shrugged and sat down on a step next to the unusually quiet Selphie.
"I'm worried." she softly stated. "I have a bad feeling about Zell, I think something is wrong."
"Zell always does this to us!" Irvine snapped. "He doesn't care that we have to wait."
".that's not what I meant. I think its different, Zell's been acting weird lately.he seems depressed. I hope he's alright."
Irvine felt jealous. "I'm sure he's fine and probably taking his sweet time getting over here."
Squall came back briefly and when he didn't see Zell, he immediately took off towards the dorms, now somewhat worried about that cute, blue eyed, blonde boy who fascinated him.
*I hope he's alright and just doing this to piss me off.*
~
In his dorm room, Zell had forgotten everything to do with the mission. He had a good excuse though; he was busy writing a farewell note to everyone in his notebook.
A tear dropped from his cheek and hit the paper as he finished writing. He closed it shut and examined the dark cover with "don't touch" written all over it. He closed his eyes and tilted his head up toward the ceiling and softly sobbed.
After a moment, he reopened the notebook and reviewed his gifts:
"I want to give: -My guns for Irvine -My comic book collection for Selphie -My clothes to Squall, he needs a new look"
Zell tearfully smiled as he read the part about Squall and continued to read.
" -I want Quistis to have my punching bag and all my gloves, I think she might need something to take her anger out on sometimes. -For Rinoa, my GFs, so she can fight beside everyone more easily. -Most importantly, Ma should have all my money and everything else not listed above."
He slammed it closed again and stood up. He went to his door and locked it. More tears ran down his face and he leaned against the door and slid down to the floor. Zell cried harder now, probably loud enough to hear outside his door. He realized he was doing this and covered his mouth with his hands. He bit his hand trying to make the pain go away.
He got up and ran across his dorm room to the window where we locked the window and pulled the curtains closed.
Zell went to his dresser and pulled it open. He grabbed his long saved drugs and fumbled while trying to open the bottle. He opened it and poured 12 little pills into his hand, and he stared at them. His gaze shifted to the mirror he had hanging on the wall above his dresser.
"Why don't they like me?" He thought aloud. "Why is it always me that pick on?"
He stared at his own baby blue eyes, looking for the answer from himself, but those eyes were too troubled to help.
He picked up the glass of water he had left on the dresser in the hand not holding the pills. Shaking he lifted the glass up and moved the pills toward his mouth. He closed his eyes and. KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK
"Ahh!" He jumped at the noise dropping twelve multi-colored pills on the ground and leaving himself wet.
On the other side of the door, was Squall.
"Zell, open up."
He tried the handle but it was locked.
"We are gonna be late for the assignment."
More tears came to Zell knowing this could be the last time he would have to talk to Squall, he wanted to tell Squall everything but instead he composed himself and shouted back at Squall,"
"Look man, I don't feel so great right now, could you just tell everyone to go ahead without me." That was good; he didn't lie, but didn't tell the straight truth either.
"If you are sick, we should get you the infirmary, come on, unlock the door and I'll help you get down there."
Squall was getting pissed off and hit hit the door harder, hoping to annoy him enough to get him to open up.
"N-no, I don't think they can do anything for me there." he started crying again and gathered the drugs that hadn't fell too far away back up. He put the seven he found in his mouth and swallowed them.
"Bye Sq-Squall," he sobbed, "tell everyone I said bye."
Squall banged on the door again. "What are you talking about? Are you ok Zell?"
*So Squall does care about me. or maybe he just wants my help on the stupid mission, yeah that's probably it, no one cares about me* Zell lay there on the floor, staring at the ceiling, ready to die.
"Zell? Zell!" Squall banged more on the door and when Zell didn't answer he ran to infirmary to tell Dr. Kadowaki about Zell and his "sickness," though he also told her that he could be faking this to not have to participate in the mission.
~
Dr. Kadowaki didn't need to hear much before immediately running to the dorm room with Squall not too far behind. Once she heard the words 'sick,' 'Zell,' and 'dorm,' she took off. She had a skeleton key to open every room in the Garden in case something like this ever happened, so upon arrival at the room, she unlocked and opened the door, only to find Zell sprawled on the floor. Squall immediately saw the water glass on the floor and the vivid pills a few feet away.
"Aw geez... I guess I'll go tell the others..."
"Hold on a minute Squall."
Zell moaned and rolled over onto his stomach. Squall looked at him and saw that ass he tried to conceal with pants as baggy as they come. Zell made more moaning noises and Dr. Kadowaki was immediately by his side, feeling his forehead for fever. Squall brought the remaining pills to her and she nodded.
"Suicide attempt."
*Stupid Zell, what the fuck is wrong is you?* ".Is he gonna be alright?"
"I don't know how much he took, and what of for that matter. I can't give you a direct answer." She shook her head and lifted the boy's head off the ground. "Squall, help me."
"...Zell."
Alrighty, one down, who knows how many to go. If you guys like it then I'll keep them coming, if not I can just end it quickly. When you review (because you WILL review!), say whatever you want, because honest opinions are appreciated. It can and will be fixed if you say something, so please do!
And be nice and r/r please, this is my first posted fanfic and I want reviews, give me ideas as where to go with this.
