1 In The Middle Of The Night

Chapter One-



Elizabeth Webber walked hurriedly to the Brownstone where she was staying with Bobbie for the time being, she couldn't believe Carly was dead. Elizabeth was never sure how to feel since the ordeal began, Carly and her had never been friends to say the least, but somehow she felt a loss for her. Elizabeth walked into the house and Bobbie was sitting on the couch looking dejected, which is how she had looked since her daughter had gone missing. "Hey Bobbie," Liz muttered as she made her way to her room, Bobbie nodded and watched the small brunette go up the stairs.

Carly's death couldn't help but drive Liz further into depression, it just made her wonder how terrible things could happen all the time and without reason. Liz had gone through rape, her boyfriend's death and resurrection, the loss of Lucky's love, the loss of Jason, and a bad car accident, which lost her all of her friends. And all this somehow made Carly's death make sense to her, it made her think what a crock of shit life really is.

Liz stared at the ceiling above her bed watching nothing, but somehow seeing everything clearly for the first time. And then the tears came, painfully soft at first then a storm of anger and regret.

Sonny poured himself a brandy, looking distressed he sat on the couch with Alexis. Alexis looked at him not sure what to say, "Sonny the funeral is tomorrow, is there anything I can do to help out?" Sonny looked at her through darkly rimmed eyed, "No, there is nothing you can do." Sonny put his face in his hands and rubbed his eyes harshly as if trying to wake himself from a horrible dream, "I have to call Jason, to tell him about the funeral."

She sat down on the shower floor, the hot water pouring over her; Elizabeth was sick of pain and mostly sick of living. Stepping out of the shower, still dripping wet she carelessly put a robe on. She opened the medicine cabinet and pulled out the bottle of pain- killers she was given after the accident, she paused only for a second before washing them all down with water from the sink.

Bobbie woke up violently from a bad dream; her mouth was so dry it was sour. She got up and went to the kitchen for a drink; Elizabeth had been silent all night she thought, for some reason Bobbie had a bad feeling. She had known the girl had been through a lot and had seemed very depressed lately. Bobbie had never once went to Liz's room to check on her but tonight she had this strange feeling.. Opening her door slowly she called out softly, "Elizabeth, you awake?" There was no response, however a dim light shown from underneath her bathroom door, she knocked on the bathroom door, once again, nothing. Suddenly Bobbie felt a chill wash over her, the kind of feeling you get when you know you're walking into something bad. Bobbie opened the door and immediately saw Liz lying on the floor as still as death.

Alexis was picking up her things to leave and Sonny came out of another room, "Is he coming?" she asked him. Sonny nodded, "He'll be here first thing in the morning." Alexis ran a hand through her hair, "It's too bad for him to return to these circumstances." Sonny nodded, "I'm going to the hospital to go get Zander, he's been in the morgue all day." Alexis nodded and turned to leave, "Good night Sonny," she said almost a whisper as she closed the door.

Sonny walked into General Hospital around eleven 'o clock. Strangely enough a lot of people were there that late, he immediately spotted Luke, Bobbie, and Sarah and Audrey Webber were also there. He noticed they seemed to be in some sort of distress as well. Approaching them, he said to Luke, "What's happened?" Luke looked at him with cloudy eyes, "Elizabeth Webber attempted suicide tonight." Sonny flinched as if someone had hit him, he never expected to hear that, "Is she going to be alright?" Bobbie shrugged, "They pumped her stomach but the likelihood of kidney damage is great considering the amount of pain killers she took." Audrey cringed at Bobbie's words, "She's a strong girl, she'll pull through," she said softly while a crying Sarah clung to her arm. Sonny looked at Bobbie with concern, "I'm sorry, you're having to go through so much lately, are you ok?" Luke put an arm around his sister and Bobbie just shrugged once again, she seemed to be somewhere else.

Sonny went to a remote corner near the coffee machine, and pulled out his phone, "Hey it's me, look I have news, and it's not good. Elizabeth tried to kill herself tonight, she's alive but it's not for sure that she stays that way, you need to get here faster than the morning,……. are you there?…..I'm so sorry man, I'll do my best to keep you posted till you get here."
