Part 29
I had gotten worried. I sat in the taxi with Brian. What would I do? I ran out on my own wedding and told everyone not to worry because I'd be back. I thought about how everyone was probably having a great time at the wedding while I sat here in my wedding dress, Brian on the verge of dying – on my way to the hospital. Moments later, my cell phone rang – it was Bert.
"Hey sis, where'd you go? Everyone's worried sick."
"I – I went back home. Brian attempted suicide. I knew he would. It's all my fault." I began to cry.
"Oh my god!" Is he okay? What'd he do?"
"I think he drugged himself. When I found him he was unconscious."
"Where is he now?"
"He's right here…we're on the way to the hospital."
"We'll be right there." He told me. I already ruined my own wedding, and I didn't want to ruin it for everyone else. As we approached the hospital, I quickly paid cab and left. I ran into the building demanding that Brian be treated. Quinn called my phone.
"Are you okay? Bert says you're at the hospital!"
"I'm fine…it's Brian…he tried committing suicide!"
"God! Why does he have to be so stupid? Wait on me, when I get there, go home. Trust me, everything will be fine."
"Okay." I didn't know what to think. My friend tried killing himself for a problem I caused. I was just being a problem. I felt like suicide myself, but there were so many good things in my life that I couldn't give up. I mean I was engaged! I sat in the waiting room…once again. I hated the fact everyone was getting put in the hospital. It made me so sick.
Quinn's P.O.V
I couldn't believe that Brian had been so stupid. Of course he was smart enough to realize he'd been doing wrong, but suicide? GOD! He was just so... – ah! Forget it, there had been no possible way to describe it. As I drove down the road on the way to the hospital, I heard Dead! by My Chemical Romance playing.
'Why does my cell have to ring at the most inappropriate times?'
I dug around in my pocket for my phone until I finally caught it – Bob. Bob was in Nevada with Branden – this couldn't be good.
"Hey, what's up?" He didn't say anything.
"…Branden just died…."
'Well, at least out of all things my ringtone was appropriate.' I thought.
"WHAT? OH MY GOD! I'M ON MY WAY TO THE HOSPITAL, BECAUSE BRIAN ATTEMPTED SUICIDE, AL RAN OUT ON THE WEDDING BECAUSE BRIAN DIDN'T SHOW, AND NOW YOU TELL ME BRANDEN DIED?!"
"I had no idea that you were under such stress…"
"Dude, just give me time…I have to go see Brian."
"Bye."
"Bye." And with that I had hung up.
