Edd's playlist: Had Enough-Breaking Benjamin, Let the Guilt Go-Korn, Razor's Edge-Meatloaf

...

Kevin set up the movies while Edd was in the shower. The redhead scrolled through Facebook while he waited. Forty minutes passed and the raventte still hadn't emerged. Kevin began to worry.

Heading upstairs, Kevin couldn't hear water running. weird he thought as he knocked. "Edd, you alright in there?" There was no answer. He tried the handle. Opening it easily, Kevin cried out. Edd was sitting on the tub, blood ran down his arm and pooled at his feet.

Blue eyes looked up, unfeeling.

Mere seconds passed as Kevin rushed next to Edd. "What the hell did you do Edd." He said grabbing the nearest towel, wrapping it around his arm. The blood soaked through quickly, while Edd sat there, zombie like.

"Shit, shit, shit." Kevin repeated, as he pulled the raventte up. Working their way downstairs, Kevin made it to the couch. too much blood Kevin thought rushing upstairs for another towel too much fucking blood why applying the pressure, Kevin quickly called Eddy. He needed help getting Edd to the hospital. too much God dam blood

Eddy answered on the second ring. "What the hell man? I was almost asleep." He said groggily.

"Never mind that!" Kevin said urgently, "we need to get Edd to the hospital now!"

Eddy was wide awake now. "What the fuck are you talking about?"

"Just get over here here and help me!" Kevin was frantic as he hung up the phone. "Edd look at me!" The genius stared but he couldn't see. "Dammit! Where is he" Kevin asked aloud as the door swung open.

"Shit what the hell happened?" Eddy said, rushing over.

"He went up to take shower." Kevin said as the two hoisted Edd up. "I went to check on him and I found him like this. I don't know why." Kevin's voice cracked as they brought Edd to the car.

Putting him in the backseat, Eddy said, "I'll drive, get in." Kevin didn't need telling twice. The fifteen minutes that had passed seemed like an entirety as Eddy ignored speed limits. why Edd Kevin thought as they pulled up to the ER.

They moved quickly as they got Edd out and into the hospital. Panic filled Eddy's voice as he called for help. A nurse rushed out with a stretcher as Edd's blue eyes faded in and out.

too much fucking blood resonated through Kevin's mind over and over as he collapsed in a chair. Eddy sat down next to him, running his hands through his hair. Sighing, the wrestler said, "fuck man, what are we gonna do?"

Kevin's mind was still reeling but be managed to say, "I d-don't know. We should probably tell Barbara though."

"Yeah." Eddy replied, sighing again. Kevin pulled out his phone and called Edd's mom. There was no answer

"The hell?" He said, ending the call. "She always answers."

Eddy pulled out his own phone and dialed Lee Kanker, hoping to get a hold of Mrs. Vincent that way. Thankfully Lee answered. "Not good time dude. What do you want?" She said hurriedly.

The girls tone caught him off guard but he still asked, "hey is sockhead's mom still there? It's important."

The line was silent for a moment. "Uh, haven't you talked to him yet," came Lee's answer finally.

"No. What the hell is going on Lee!" Eddy couldn't hide the desperation from his voice. Kevin's eyes widened in fear.

"You should talk to double D."

"I fucking can't! We're at the dam hospital because he cut himself again!" Eddy screamed. "Now what the fuck is going on woman!"

"Oh my god" Lee said quietly. Breathing deeply she continued, "Charles and someone else ran her off the road about an hour ago. She's at the hospital now."

"The fuck!" Eddy hung the phone up quickly and jumped up.

"What the hell?" Kevin asked, terrified.

Reaching the nurses station, Eddy said, "apparently Edd's mom is already here."

"What?" Kevin couldn't imagine how Barbara could knoalready.

"Yea, Charles ran her off the fucking road!" Eddy was pissed. Getting the nurse's attention, he said, "can you tell me where Barbara Vincent is?"

Kevin's heart fell. that explains why he thought as the young nurse looked sadly at the boys. Trying to keep her voice calm, she said, "She's in ICU. I'm afraid only family is allowed." Glancing at her paperwork again, she continued, "is your friend family?"

Eddy was exasperated. "Yea, he's her dam son!"

"Oh dear." The woman felt for the boys. "I am so sorry, was all she could manage.

Both boys felt like screaming, realizing it pointless to try getting more info. They both sulked back to the waiting room, defeated. "What in the hell are we gonna do." Eddy asked again.

Kevin could only shake his head. The silence was broken by Kevin's phone going off. It was Marie. Answering it, Kevin said, "yeah."

"What the hell is going on!" Came the bluenettes angry reply.

"Edd's in the hospital and apparently so is his mom." Kevin said disheartened.

"Fuck! I'll be there soon!" Marie said, ending the call. Kevin placed his head in his hands as they waited.

...

Marie and her family were there in ten minutes. It's was another twenty five before the doctor came out. His face was haggered as he spoke, "Edd's lost a lot of blood, but he will be ok. Thankfully you came when you did. I don't know how much longer he would have hung on if you hadn't."

The group let out a collective sigh of relief. "Can we see him?" Kevin asked hopefully.

The doctor gave a small smile saying, "ok, but only two at a time ok?" It was good enough for Kevin and Eddy. The two followed the doctor back.

Edd was laying in the hospital bed. His skin was completely ashen and he was hooked up to Iv's and boys were at a loss for words when they saw him. oh God Edd Kevin thought as he picked up the his boyfriend's limp hand.

Eddy wanted to scream at the top of his lungs. His best friend could never catch a break. Dammit

They sat in silence for awhile as Edd just lie there. Eddy couldn't handle seeing his friend like that. The wrestler knew he needed to do something, getting up to leave he said, "I-I'm gonna go get Marie so she can see him." Kevin only nodded as he left.

"Oh Edd" Kevin said placing his forehead against his dork's, "why didn't you just talk to me?"

"Jesus." Marie said from the doorway.

Kevin looked up briefly, then returned his gaze back to Edd's.

"I c-can't believe this," the tomboy said, her voice failing.

"Neither can I," Kevin said quietly.

The doctor knocked on the door frame. Poking his head in he said, "I just thought I'd let you know Edd's mother's been moved from ICU. She's going to be fine." Looking at Edd's vitals, he continued, "We can move Edd now as well."

"Good." Kevin and Marie both said.

...

Edd groaned. His arm and head hurt like hell. Opening his eyes, the raventte tried sitting up. He winced in pain as something tugged on his arm. Looking down he saw the IV and bandages. Laying back, he groaned again. what happened he thought.

"Oh thank God!" Janice said. "You're awake!" Edd stared at the woman. He couldn't imagine why she was there.

Janice walked over to the bed. Smiling weakly, she said, "you both worried the hell out of us."

"B-both?" Edd managed, looking around. He sunk back into the pillow when he saw his mother laying in the bed next to his. "Oh," was all he could say as everything came flooding back.

Janice Kanker saw the look in Edd's eyes. Patting the boys hand gently, she said, "it's ok. She was awake half hour ago. We've been waiting for you to come around."

We've?" Edd asked as Marie walked in.

Seeing Edd awake, the girl nearly dropped the can of pop in her hand. Rushing over, she exclaimed, "it's about time!" Poking her head out the door she yelled, "Hurry up you two! He's awake!"

Edd could hear footsteps approaching fast. Within seconds, Kevin and Eddy were surrounding Edd's bed. "Oh my god." His best friend said, relief washing over him.

Tears welled in Kevin's eyes as he looked at Edd. "You're awake, finally," the redhead said softly.

Edd avoided everyone's eyes. He couldn't handle the guilt he felt. He hadn't before, but it was worse now. He couldn't do anything right anymore. Gazing at his mother, he said, "I'm sorry to have worried you all."

Janice took in the look on Edd's face. Knowing she couldn't do anything at the time, she said, "I'm going to get some coffee." Her words barely registered as she left.

"Dude, sockhead, you scared the hell out of us!" Eddy broke the silence meekly.

"I'm sorry." Edd said again, automatically.

"What were you even thinking?" Marie said gently.

Edd finally looked away from his mother. Emotionless, he said, "nothing."

"What's that supposed to mean?" Eddy said, hoping for an explanation. None came however, as the raventte stared away again. The wrestler just sighed.

"Why can't you just talk to us babe?" Kevin finally said.

The look on his friend's faces were more than Edd could bear. Closing his eyes exhausted, he said, "because it's pointless."

"The hell do you mean it's pointless double D?" Marie said. Edd just sighed. never going to be ok

After several minutes of silence, Marie let it drop, for now. The girl could only hope Edd would open up soon. Edd was relieved, he couldn't handle seeing his friends like this. all because of me

...

Monday morning rolled around. Edd was still in the hospital. His friends had to go back to school. Before leaving, Kevin gripped his hands, saying gently, "I have no idea what's going on in your head. I wish you would just let me in. I'll will try my best to help you. If only you would let me." Edd said nothing. Kevin sighed helplessly. Kissing Edd's forehead, he said, "I'll see you after school, ok? I love you."

Edd nodded as he left and said, "I love you too."

Barbara Vincent wanted to cry at her son's voice. She knew he blamed himself for everything. He couldn't see that he had nothing to do with the accident. Charles was just a corrupt man. Her voice was still hoarse but she managed a weak, "you need to stop blaming yourself, Eddward."

"I can't mother," was Edd's weaker reply. "I just, I just feel so screwed up."

Barbara wanted to cry at her son's words. Before she could say anything else, however, a voice came from the doorway. "Oh yes my dear boy, it's not your fault." John Rainer said, entering the room, "it's your mother's fault for telling you everything. You weren't ready to know."

Both Vincents froze. will it ever end Barbara thought as Edd sat up. Fury raged in his eyes as he spoke, "you have no right to be here!"

John chuckled before answering. "Oh? I don't? And who's to say I don't, hmm?"

Edd's voice still spewed venom at the man, "neither of us want you here! Haven't you done enough?"

"Oh, I've only begun." The judge said as he turned to leave. With one last look, he finished, "The real question is, have you two had enough?"
