chapter three
The next day the doctor who had questioned him yesterday informed him that he had gotten in touch with his parents and they had o.k.'d a hospital stay for him.
Zack felt like he had been punched.
His parents were going to make him go to a psych ward.
"Can Freddy see me?" At the moment that was all that mattered because if he had to do this alone then he was sure that he would go insane.
The doctor had an understanding look on his face. "I mentioned to your parents that it might be good for you to have a friendly face around, and they agreed to letting Freddy be on your contact list."
"Contact list?"
"A contact list, is a list of people outside the ward that you'll be allowed to call and who can come see you."
"So where am I going to be staying, here?"
"Yes, you will be staying upstairs we have a bed open so you'll be heading up in just a little bit. I just wanted to tell you that unfortunatly, your parents are curently unable to get here so i'll be taking you up to make sure they know that Freddy is allowed to see you."
The doctor looked disaproving of the fact that Zacks parents weren't there.
"Is he here?"
"Yes he's waiting outside. He was wondering if he could come up with you for your intake but I told him that was up to you."
Zack just nodded relieved that he wouldn't have to go up there alone.
"Okay then, lets head up." Zack nodded numbly. It felt like his life was slipping away from him. He followed the doctor out into the hall were Freddy was standing with a bag in his hand.
When he saw Zack he dropped the bag and gave him a brief hug. "Hey Zacky I brought some clothes for you, and that book that you wanted to read."
"Thanks spazzy."
Freddy looked apolegetic about somthing and Zack wasnt sure what until freddy told him that he wasn't allowed to have his guitar in the hospital.
Freddy was probably the only one who really understood why it would be torture for him to not be able to have his guitar with him. He knew how when you play you can get so absorbed in it that you forget about everything wrong with the world and just get drawn in by the music. It was somthing that you really couldn't explain to someone who had never had that feeling before.
As they moved into the elevator zack started to get scared and reached instinctivly for Freddys hand.
Usualy Zack hated to be touched, but with Freddy it never bothered him and he didn't seem to mind either. Freddy was a very tactile person and Zack was grateful that it was Freddy with him instead of his parents, because right now he really just wanted to be held and his parents barely talked to him let alone hug him.
Freddy seemed to understand and put his arm around Zacks shoulders in a protective manner.
The elevater doors chimed open and they stepped out into a short hallway with a wooden door at the end.
They walked over and the doctor typed a code into the keypad next to the door. Zack was noticing every little detail of things, and everything seemed slightly bigger then it actually was. It seemed unreal, but then again that was how a lot of things seemed lately.
When Zack tensed up Freddy Tightened his grip and gently led Zack inside the door.
There were teenagers milling around what seemed to be a coomon room. It wasn't personel and everthing looked cold and uninviting.
A few people looked at him curiously and he shrank into Freddy not wanting to have to deal with anyone.
Zack could already tell that he was going to hate it here.
