A/N: HELLO! Okay, so if you've been reading this story, you know that Roach has nightmares. And if anyone remembers chapter one, Ghost was thinking about how Roach would get mad if he had to take a drug that would stop the nightmares, but he would be declared unfit for duty. Well, guess what's gonna happen next? Yea, Roach does NOT like me right now, but as long as he doesn't shoot me I think I'll be okay! The medicine is called Prazosin, so if I mention that, then I'm talking about the stuff that stops nightmares (well... it's supposed to...). But be warned, I might make up some side effects. So if you look up Prazosin and it doesn't have the same side effects as in the story and someone PMs me and says that, I am going to laugh at you and tell you to read the author's note. Don't tell me I didn't warn you! :)

The Ghosts were sitting in the rec room. They were all very bored. That's when they heard talking coming from the hall.

"Have you seen how bad he looks today?"

"Yeah, we need to do something before he dies of sleep deprivation."

"I have something that should help with the nightmares, Roach probably won't like it though."

"What is it?"

"It's called Prazosin."

"Are there any crazy side effects?"

"That depends on the person."

"What are the possible side effects?"

"Just the usual stuff, headache, drowsiness, blurred vision, fever. There is also a small chance of temporary blindness, but that probably won't happen."

"That would be bad."

"Yeah, it would. You want me to go get it?"

"Sure, I'll meet you in Roach's room."

"Okay."

They all looked at each other. That sounded like Archer and Captain MacTavish.

"Well that was interesting." Logan said.

"Yeah it was." Hesh agreed.

"What the fuck is Prazosin?" Kick asked.

"It's a medicine that is supposed to stop nightmares, but it doesn't always work." Merrick explained.

"I guess this means the kid hasn't gotten any better." Keegan sighed.

They were all silent for a moment. They liked Roach. He was funny and sweet and it was nice having him around.

"He's gotten worse, actually." Ghost said, sitting down beside Riley on the floor.

"How has he gotten worse?"

"He hasn't had sleep in like two days, he's constantly nervous because something is bothering him, but he refuses to tell us what it is and there's like a whole list of other things that are wrong."

"What do you mean he won't tell you? Can't you just order him to tell you?"

He shook his head.

"That's not how Roach works. If he doesn't want to tell you something, you'll never find out. That's why interrogators hate dealing with him. He's really stubborn."

"Damn, that's bad." Kick said.

"Yeah, well I gotta go check on Roach, so I'll see you guys later."

"Alright." Merrick said.

Ghost left and headed for the infirmary. When he got there MacTavish, Archer, and Price were already there. Toad was probably wandering around the base looking for food or something. Roach was lying in his bed. He looked so tired.

"Here Roach, it's your pain meds." Archer said, holding a small cup out with a pill in it for him to take.

Roach made no move to take the cup and gave him a hard look.

"As I said I before, you're a terrible liar." He said, shaking his head in disbelief.

"What are you talking about, Roach? It's your pain meds." Archer said, shoving the cup into his hands.

Roach looked into the cup and shoved it back at him.

"Pain meds my ass. I don't know what the fuck that is, but it certainly isn't pain meds."

"Just take it, would you?" Ghost said.

"I'm not taking it until I know what it is."

"Roach, if you don't take it I'm gonna-"

"If you try to make me take it, you'll notice at least one of your fingers are missing." He growled threateningly.

Silence...

Silence...

"Don't you want the nightmares to stop?" Archer asked quietly.

"Oh, so that's what this is about. Well, I hate to break it to you but there is no such thing as a magical pill that stops nightmares."

"It's worth a shot though."

Silence...

"Please, Roach. We'll be here for a few months while you're healing up and you might as well not suffer the whole time." Archer pleaded.

"What is it?"

"Prazosin, it should help with the nightmares."

"Side effects?"

"Just regular stuff fever, blurred vision."

He thought for a moment.

"If it doesn't work, I'm not taking any more." He said, putting an emphasis on the word not.

"Deal."

"It was all your fault!" Charlie yelled.

Charlie was back. He was covered in blood and still had the knife in his chest, and maggots were all over him, by his chest mostly. He was angry.

"Charlie... I'm so sorry I didn-"

"You're not sorry! You're probably happy I'm not around to annoy you anymore!" He spat.

"How could you say that? I loved you, Charlie!" Roach said, tears filling his eyes.

"Yeah and then you let dad murder me!"

"I didn't mean to!"

"Yes you did, Gary. I hate you!"

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry I left you, Charlie!" He cried, tears running down his face.

"Saying sorry doesn't help anything!"

"I'm sorry..." He said, falling on his knees and hiding his face in his hands.

"It doesn't matter now. Because you're gonna be stuck with me and you'll have plenty of time to make up for your mistake." Charlie said, pulling the knife from his chest and playing with it.

"What are you talking about?"

"You're coming with me."

"What do you mean?"

"It'll be fun!" He said excitedly.

"Wha-"

Charlie stabbed him in the chest. Blood went everywhere, but he didn't feel any pain.

"That's what you get for killing your brother." Charlie said coldly.

"Roach wake up!"

He felt hands grabbing at him. He sat up too fast and his ribs felt like they were on fire. Someone shoved him back down. Wait, who was that? His eyes flew open, but it was still dark. He blinked several times. Still the same, pitch black. He couldn't see anything! His hands immediately moved up to his face. Why the hell couldn't he see?! His breathing got faster.

"Roach, are you okay?" A voice said.

He flinched away from it.

"Roach?"

He moved father away from it until he was on the edge of the bed. He felt like he couldn't breathe. Someone grabbed him and tried to bring him closer to them.

"C'mere, I need t-"

"No!"

He shoved at them and jumped when he heard something break. All at once, more hands were there, forcing him to lay down.

"Nooo! Leave me alone!" He yelled.

He still couldn't see. Why couldn't he see?!

"Roach, it's okay. Calm down."

He struggled against the hands, but none of them would budge. His eyes darted around the room, but he still couldn't see.

Archer looked at him. His eyes weren't focusing on anything like they were supposed to.

No... it couldn't be...

"Roach, let me look at your eyes."

He jerked back and closed his eyes when he felt hands grabbing at his face.

"What is it?" Another voice nearby asked.

He held up a hand, telling Ghost to give him a minute.

"Damn it. Roach, open your eyes please."

He shook his head, keeping his eyes closed.

"Please, Roach. I just need to look at them." Archer begged.

Suddenly there was a loud bang on the other side of the room. His eyes shot open and searched the room with unseeing eyes.

Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God! WHY THE FUCK CAN'T I SEE?!

"Roach. Hey, look at me."

His eyes looked in the general direction the voice had come from, but still didn't focus. Archer grabbed his chin and turned his head this way and that, hoping he wasn't right, but sadly he was.

"You can't see, can you?" He sighed, letting go of him.

"No... what's wrong with my eyes?"

Archer thought about the side effects of Prazosin.

Damn it.

"Don't worry, it's just temporary."

"What do you mean temporary?"

"That means you should be able to see again by tomorrow afternoon."

He nodded and stared up at where he figured the ceiling was.

"Ummm... aren't you, you know... mad?" Archer asked nervously.

"Too tired to be mad." He said through a yawn.

"What was it about?"

"Fuck you, 'm not tellin you." He said, giving him the bird.

"Why not?"

"Cause it none of your business."

"Yeah, it is. Tell me."

"Nope."

"Please tell me?"

"Never ever."

"Roach, if you don't tell me, then I'm gonna-"

"What are you gonna do? Sedate me to death?"

"That's a good idea." He said, leaving the room.

"That wasn't meant to be taken literally..." Roach said to the empty room.

A/N: Yay! I made Roach blind! Woohoo. That was fun. REVIEW! :D
