I Own nothing from The Suite Life of Zack and Cody.
"Cody, I think Maddie was drunk, she just kinda hung up on me" Zack was looking very upset and concerned as he said this, Cody was just shocked, so many questions, like how an 18 year old got the alcohol were flooding through his mind.
"God, I hope she's alright, do you think she's OK?" Cody asked also very concerned for his friends well being.
"I really don't know, I don't know Cody, everything is so confusing, I don't know how anyone can deal with this, I just feel so horrible for everyone, I wasn't ever that close to London, but I feel so bad she's gone, but I feel worse seeing you and Maddie go through all this, it just cuts me to my soul man" Zack's innermost feelings were now being spilled out to his brother, hearing the drunk Maddie just made him feel like he needed to escape.
"I need to escape brother, I don't know how I can deal with all this" Zack wept out
"I know, I need to go too, I don't think there's anything that will let us escape this torment though, certainly alcohol I don't think, but. I've never drunk it so I don't really know"
Zack didn't responded to Cody's last sentence, he was too deep in thought about Maddie, he wanted to help her, but from his hospital bed he could do nothing, she sounded so far gone, like she had been drinking for hours and hours. Finally Zack spoke up
"I have drunken alcohol before, but never to dull pain, I don't think it would work either" Cody was completely shocked, he had no idea when or why Zack had drunken, or how he had gotten his liquids.
"When, why?" Cody asked
"it was at some girl's place, we got into her dads liquor cabinet, had some fun" Zack said, breaking into a weak but sly smile as he recalled happy memories, Cody didn't want any more details so he dropped the subject.
"So what can we do about Maddie? If alcohol won't dull her pain she'll probably keep drinking until it does, and if she does that, then she's going to do herself real damage" Cody said worryingly
"I don't know, I mean, we have no idea where she is, if we could find out we could tell Mr. Moesby" Zack replied
"Call her back, see if you can talk her down, put her on speaker and I'll help" Cody said, it was an idea so logical that it had evaded them until this point, as is often the case in such intense circumstances.
Zack dialled Maddie's cell phone and put the phone on speaker. The phone rang for what seemed to Zack and Cody like an eternity, neither of the twins daring to breathe as it rang and rang until finally Maddie answered
"Hellooo, whoooss thisss" She began
"It's Zack and Cody" The twins said
"Ohhhhh, my favourite twins, how are you going through this black pit of life" Maddie slurred, her extreme depression and drunkenness clear.
"Maddie, it's not that bad, please stop drinking, just go home and sleep, your not doing London's memory a service by acting this way" Cody said
"Shut up Cody, you always just want to tell people how to live their lives, you don't know shit, just shut up and stay out of my business" Maddie angrily yelled, Cody was deeply offended and so upset by her comments he just sat back, silent, tearing up.
"Hey, Maddie, he's just trying to help" Zack defended his brother
"Well I don't need help, from either of you, I'm fine" Zack and Cody heard her take another swig before they heard in the background "Silver Line platforms 1 and 2 are for Logan Airport bound Trains, Red Line platform 3 is for Southbound Red Line trains, Red Line platform 4 is for north bound Red Line trains" Maddie then hung the phone up.
"Sounds like she's at a subway station, we've got to call Moesby, she's not safe" Zack said with urgency, the offended Cody looked up, he realised Maddie didn't mean what she said, she was drunk and hurting.
"Well, we've got to think about which station she's at, the announcement was for Silver and Red line trains, going to the airport, Zack, hand me my wallet" Cody said, Zack gave him his wallet and Cody took out his MBTA map and looked it over
"There, South Station" Cody announced triumphantly, pointing the station out to Zack
"OK good, call Moesby, and tell him what's happened" Zack said. Cody dialled Mr. Moesby's cell phone and waited for him to answer
"Marion Moesby, who's calling please" Moesby answered
"It's Cody, we need your help, its Maddie" Cody began, Moesby was instantly awash with worry
"What's wrong Cody?" Moesby asked
"It's Maddie, she's been drinking, she sounds in a really bad way, I think you should go find her, before she does something stupid, or something happens to her" Cody was really worried now, talking fast as his nervousness set in
"Do you know where she is?" Moesby asked, moving to get ready to leave
"We think she's at the south subway station, we heard a PA announcement in the background of the call" Cody quickly responded
"That's not far from your hospital, it's a big station though, I'll head down there now, hopefully I can find her before anything happens"
"Thank you Mr. Moesby, keep me informed please, I'll keep my cell phone on" Cody then ended the phone call and turned to a worried Zack
"Don't worry, Maddie will be alright, Moesby will call when he knows anything" Cody said, Zack was so worried, he loved Maddie so, and it would crush him to loose her, he honestly thought he would contemplate suicide.
"Come over here Zack, we'll wait together" Cody said, Zack got into Cody's bed, the twins cuddling up together, comforting each other as they had done so many times in the past few days.
Getting from his apartment to South Station was a mad rush for Marion Moesby, he was now desperately worried about Maddie, so many questions rushed through his mind, but most of all he just begged the powers at be to protect Maddie and to make sure she was alright. The drive would take him 20 minutes or so, his apartment being on the other side of Downtown near the Tipton hotel, Moesby rushed probably the fastest he'd ever in his entire life.
Moesby soon arrived at the large south station transport centre and began his search through the massive building for Maddie; Cody had mentioned a PA announcement so Moesby decided it was best to check the platform area first.
Down the steps toward the trains Moesby began looking closely, it was 10pm now so the station was a little busy, but not too many people were around, the station was well lit too, so he thought it wouldn't be hard to find Maddie. Moesby searched the platforms top to bottom, but there was no sign of Maddie, his heart began to race and he began to sweat, now he just needed to find her, the urgency of his situation was killing him. Moesby had initially thought to ask a police officer or security guard for help, but he then quickly realised the underage drinking Maddie would be arrested if found by the police, and he didn't want that to happen, it would just cap off Maddie's week from hell. Maddie was certainly not in the subway station section of the building so Moesby went up to check the bus stop area, this area was less used at this time of night, and less well lit, so he would have to look more carefully for Maddie. As Moesby turned a corner to another set of bus shelters he saw what looked like a pile of rags at the bottom of a set of steps, but the he noticed a faint movement, and then a few strands of blonde hair, and trickling out from under the rags was a red liquid, blood. Moesby rushed down the stairs and rolled the young girl over, sure enough, it was Maddie, bleeding from the nose and a gash in her forehead, she made some slight noises, but not much, vomit surrounded her mouth, Moesby's first aid training kicked in and he quickly cleared her throat and mouth and tried to stop the bleeding, it was quite heavy, it was obvious Maddie needed medical attention immediately, since Moesby's car was just around the corner he gently picked the girl and up hurriedly carried her to the car.
After getting Maddie to the car and strapping her down in the back seat, making sure she was in the recovery position in case she threw up again Moesby began the short drive to Boston Medical Centre, the same hospital where Zack and Cody were patients. Moesby pulled up in the closest car park to the ER and carried Maddie in
"I need a doctor please" he yelled, getting the attention of the nurses, who quickly scrambled to get Maddie a gurney and take her inside to see a doctor
"Are you family Sir?" A nurse asked Moesby
"No, I'm a friend, I found her at South Station like this, I'll call her family now" Moesby said, sounding very distressed, the nurse decided she could forgo with the usual requirement of family only and allowed Moesby to stay with her as they began to work.
"Has she been drinking?" They asked
"Yes" Moesby replied
"Ok, probably alcohol poisoning, get a stomach pump in please"
Moesby didn't want to see what went on inside so he stepped outside the curtain and called Maddie's parents first, who were understandably upset and set out on their way to the hospital right away and then Cody.
"Cody" Moesby began
"I found Maddie, she was hurt, I took her to the hospital, we're downstairs in the ER" Moesby continued, Zack and Cody were stunned, shocked and just plain upset
"We're coming down" The twins insisted, despite Moesby's pleas for them not to it was no use, Zack and Cody set off out of their room to go down to the emergency room.
