Chapter 3
When will it end?
It's been three days and Lloyd was still in the hospital. He wanted to get out and never return. Sadly he can't. He was stuck here, or so he thought.
Once his IV and oxygen mask were removed, he was moved to the upper floors. The upper floors were for people with 'problems'. He wasn't aloud to walk, so the nurse transported him there in a wheelchair. He was put three floors higher. He saw a sign that read 'eating disorders', 'sleeping disorders' and 'suicidal clinic'. Lloyd scoffed at the thought. He didn't want to be here. He wanted to go home, but everyone is concerned about him.
Once they reached the nearest free room, the nurse set Lloyd down on the bed and left him alone. His room was really big and had a massive window. It also had a bathroom and a closet for clothes. He knew he wasn't going anywhere for a while. He just sat there in thought, staring at his bandaged wrists. He didn't even bother moving. He wanted to leave forever.
The door slowly opened and Kai walked in. He put a hand on Lloyd's shoulder. Lloyd looked away, now facing the window. The doctor walked in and called Kai out. He got up and walked out the door, closing it afterwards. They both left Lloyd alone again.
"Lloyd's mind is unstable. He is suffering too much. If he tried to commit suicide once, it is likely he will do it again. Please, keep an eye on him." The doctor requested.
"I will. I won't let him go. He won't die on my watch." Kai replied.
He walked back in and saw Lloyd standing near the window, staring outside. He had one hand on the window. Kai smiled sadly and walked to Lloyd. He wrapped his arms around his waist and pulled him close.
"You okay?" Kai whispered, burying his head into Lloyd's shoulder.
"No...I'm not okay...my wrists hurt." Lloyd responded coldly.
Kai hugged him tighter and didn't let go. Lloyd removed his hand from the window and turned around to face Kai. He wore a sad expression and stared Kai in the eyes. After moments of silence, Kai finally spoke.
"This is what happens. Remember, I'm here if you need me. I'm not leaving you. I'm allowed to stay."
Lloyd wrapped his arms around Kai's chest and cried heavily.
"Thank you." Lloyd replied. He hugged tighter and buried his head into Kai's chest. Kai hugged him and gently stroked his back. Lloyd relaxed in his hold and slowly drifted to sleep. Once he did, Kai laid him back on his bed. He smiled and stroked his hair. He stopped and went for something to eat.
However...
Kai wasn't alone. Someone was monitoring every action he makes. This 'mystery man' followed Kai to the cafeteria. They blended in as a suicidal patient. Dressed in a hospital gown and messy black hair. The person stared at Kai, as if they needed him.
Once Kai left the cafeteria, he walked back to Lloyd's room. He walked in and sat down on the chair nearest to his bed. The nurse walked in and made a bed on the floor for Kai, since he was going to be staying for a while. Lloyd looked peaceful, as if nothing was wrong with him. But Kai knew better. Lloyd was not okay. He was too unstable. Kai had to help him.
He won't let Lloyd die...
