Chapter Two: Bleed In, Bleed Out
Cody woke in his bed. Beer bottles and wine coolers surrounded him. His head hurt terribly and he knew that he had a hangover.
'When did I find time to drink.' Cody thought scratching his head and rubbing his eyes. He set up in bed.
The memories rushed back to him. Zack's death. Zack had died in his arms. He had let his brother die. Thoughts such as these made Cody's head hurt worse. His hands clung to it.
Cody stood and stumbled around. This pain was too much. Cody busted one of the wine bottles off the dresser. He slashed his arm open, not good enough, he ran the glass across his hand, it didn't hurt as much, he finally took a final slash across his left wrist. Cody felt dissy and fainted.
"Cody?" Cody opened his eyes to Maddie tear stained face."Are you okay?" She started getting excited, noticing that he was awake.
Cody looked around. Maddie and Carey were standing over him. He was ina hospital room. It was white, too white, his headache throbbed. Cody felt a wierd sensation on his wrist. He didn't know why, he didn't remember.
"What happened?" Cody asked dryly.
"Hunny, don't you remember?" Carey asked.
"No." Cody whispered, a look of innocence crossed his face.
"Cody, you tried to...kill yourself." Carey said slowly. She begin to cry as the words left her mouth.
"What?" Cody yelled moving around irratically.
"Cody, calm down." Maddie said in a rushed tone. Cody settled.
"I didn't, I wouldn't, I-"
"Was drunk." Maddie pointed out.
"I'm sorry." Cody closed his eyes. He knew he was sober. And he still wanted to die.
"You have visitors in the waiting room. I'll send them in." Carey said guiding Maddie out of the room.
Soon, several fimiliar faces appeared. Rebecca, Michelle, and Tapeworm.
"How are you?" Rebecca asked running her hand over Cody's face.
"I'm not sure." Cody replied noticing a bruise on the side of her neck that seemed to disappear into her shirt.
"Hi Cody. I brought you some chocolate." Michelle handed Cody some chocolate.
Chocolate was Zack's favorite candy. Cody threw the box of candy against the wall. Everyone jumped back in surprise.
"What was it?" Michelle asked quickly.
"I don't like chocolate."
Maddie entered the room, noticing the chocolate. She knew. Maddie quickly got rid of it and asked the visitors to leave.
Cody would have to stay in the hospital over night, and soon, he was sleeping.
