( As normal read, enjoy, review. OK next to the last chapter.)
4/7/12
Punk was already back in Chicago getting settled in with his treatment. Most of his day was spend with is meditations. Since he didn't purposely take the drugs he wasn't ordered into the whole 12 step thing.
About once a day sometimes more a counselor would stop by to talk one on one with him. They would talk to him about anything that was on his mind it didn't have to be tied just to the drugs in his system. The center was given a list of what the hospital found, but Punk clearly told them he didn't want to know.
When asked why he very clearly put it this way. 'How can my body betray my mind & looks for something if it doesn't even know what it is searching for?' He thought he was doing good until he was around a larger group for an extended time. His mind started to get foggy & that warming feeling over his skin. He just removed himself form the group returning to his room one of the staff following after him.
Opening the door to his room the male staff member saw Punk already on the floor in one of his meditation posses. "Please just leave me alone for a while." Punk spoke hearing the door but not looking.
"What's wrong Punk?" The staff was informed they were to address him as Punk & not Phil or Brooks.
"Just get Kevin please." It looked like he was getting agitated. The door shut & Punk continued to try to calm himself down refusing to cave to those feelings again.
The door opened again & then shut. "Punk?" It was a guy standing maybe 5'8 with long brown hair tied in a ponytail, his eye also brown & almost olive skin. "What's wrong Punk I was told you left group without a word, then asked for me?" The man could still see his agitated state even with Punk's eyes closed with his legs crossed he was almost rocking.
"Remember I men-mentioned the one….the one that…" He also growled
"The one that tries to heighten primal desires."
"Yes….fe-feeling that now…Don-don't want to…Wan-want to stop."
"OK Punk, remember you have controlled it before. You can do it again."
"So….so str-strong though…hurts….burning…"
"OK Punk…I am going to call one of the aids in here…since this the first we seen this type of reaction & we still don't know what we messing with, I want him to try to draw some blood. Maybe what ever it is has flare-ups & we will see it while you are having an episode."
"OK OK….Whatever….jus-just hurry…don't wa-want to bre-break…"
"It's growing too strong…I'll be right back." Punk could hear the door open & Kevin yelling something. "Punk open your eyes we don't want you jumping when we touch you." He did & saw Kevin as well as the male staffer that checked on him before. He slowly got up from the ground sitting on his bed his body slightly shaking. He watched at the staff member drew the blood a faint fear in him of something going in instead. He had to keep telling himself they were there to help him.
Once the blood was taken & the needle removed Punk clamed a little even though his body still felt on fire. Kevin spoke after the staff member left. "I will leave word you are not to be bothered for at least an hour. Is that long enough to get your thoughts in order." Punk though hating the thought of breaking downs sadly his mind was already picturing it happening & was craving it more with ever passing moment. Slowly nodding Kevin left out of the room shutting the door tightly. Punk's eyes slowly closed tears filling them feeling so weak still.

Back down in Florida Randy was pacing a small conference room that had Jade's parents…all four of them as well as a few doctors.
"Randy will you sit down?" Asked Vince.
He turned looking in his direction. "No…NO Vince I am not going to sit down & relax. I can't believe you want to institutionalize Jade!"
"Private care Randy."
"Same thing!"
"No it's different. There isn't anything more they can do for her here."
"You want to lock her away…just forget about this is that it?"
"Of course not!" Came the voice of Jade's mom. "We are doing this because none of us can care for her in the way that is best for her."
Randy tried to clam himself his nostrils flaring. "I'm not giving up on her."
"None of us are asking you to Randy." Spoke Jade's father. "But think about it, wouldn't you rather she be taken care of someplace nice where she can be looked after & cared for the best way possible till hopefully she snaps out of this."
"And I take it you four already decided without me where this place should be?"
"Not the exact place we are still checking into that. The only thing we decided so far is near Stamford. The two of us can travel easily while tending to Jade's company. We know you will be on the road a lot & it will be close enough for the McMahon's to check on her too."
Randy sighed lowering his head rubbing the back of his head. "As long as it isn't some state hell hole."
"None of us want her in that type of place Randy." Voice Vince again.
"Fine…though I am not pleased with it obviously I am out voted."
"And what would you want?"
"At home, in a real bed…even if I had to hire a live in nurse."
"Maybe an option to think of down the road, but for now Randy this makes the most sense since none of us know how it will go day to day. You seen her." Randy slowly nodded.
He remembered seeing her during what the doctors could only call an episode. Her face would twitch as if in discomfort or pain & the faintest of audible winces or tiny whimpers from her even though her lips barely moved if at all. Also one time he came early to see her & during the night her arms moved till they rested almost stretched above her head. Her mind forcing her back into the position she was found. No amount of talking to her trying to calm her would snap her from them at least for now.
"Let me guess the sooner the better?" He asked as calmly as he could.
"Yes." Answered Vince.
"And we all know I should get back on the road before too many questions start. As soon as she is moved I want to be informed."
"We will & of course try to give you time to see her at the new location." Randy nodded.
"I need to see her before I head out."
"I think we are done here." Randy just headed for the door before heading up to Jade's room. He walked in closing his eyes seeing her, as her arms were in the raised position again. Walking over his lightly touched her hand & her face cringed.
"Baby, Jadie I wish I could say or do something to wake you from this bad dream." He hated to but pulled his hand away from her. "Your parents are looking for a wonderful place for you. I will try to see you when ever I can." he almost chuckled to himself. "If I had my choice I wouldn't leave your side. I know if I did that though you would yell at me for giving up wrestling just to side by your side hours on end not knowing if you would respond more then this. I do miss you Jadie & pray every day that I get a call that you wake up. What ever limits he may have caused you we will work through them. We did before & we will again."
Randy lowered his head he so wanted to kiss her good bye or brush her cheek, but he knew for now any kind of stimulation seemed to make her worse not better. "See you soon Babe." He then turned leaving before he had another breakdown.
(OK one more chapter after this one...Orton & Punk face to face.)
