The Unexpected Wrong Side

Chapter 18- Uncomfortable Atmosphere

It was serious. Much more serious than Stan and Kyle ever imagined.

Not only did Kyle have Schizophrenia, he had psychosis too.

Schizophrenia caused psychosis, so they were similar but not the exact same disorder.

Stan didn't think it would be what it turned out to be. It seemed so unreal.

Kyle was in much shock as was Stan. He didn't understand how he got it.

"There's daily medication I will supply for you once it is in. Have you experienced any dizziness or drowsiness since you've been here Kyle?" Dr. Webber questioned the patient.

Kyle shook his head no.

"What about feeling depressed, wanting to stay in bed?" Dr. Webber was currently typing on her computer as she asked Kyle questions.

"No." Kyle shook his head again like before. Stan watched his body trying to contain the shakiness.

He reached over and gripped Kyle's hand. He was mortified over what Dr. Webber admitted to him and his boyfriend.

Of course he wouldn't treat Kyle any different. He was still Stan's boyfriend, the one who made him want to stay alive, for the sake of each other.

"What medication will he be given?" Stan asked Dr. Webber.

"One antipsychotic and one anti-tremor a day. They'll be in by tomorrow." "So I have to stay another night here?" Kyle asked annoyed at the thought.

"Yes, we planned on releasing you next weekend but I believe with the medication you'll be fine. Oh I forgot to ask, where are your parents in all this?"

Uh oh. Here comes the end of everything.

Dr. Webber would contact Kyle's parents and they'd take him back home. Stan wished he could convince Sheila to turn over her legal guardian rights to his Uncle Jimbo.

Kyle looked at Stan with his eyes crying out for what to say.

"Kyle's parents don't support us so he moved out and lives with me and my uncle." Stan explained.

"Without them knowing?" Dr. Webber eyed both boys with concern and confusion. More like surprise than confusion.

"I'm not going back to live with them. I don't care what the law says, I'm not living with them." Kyle said firmly.

"Your uncle could file for guardianship until Kyle turns 18. If it's been helping you to feel good about yourself then I would keep that in mind."

This doctor was really understanding. Kyle was going to be 18 soon like Stan.

"I turn 18 in 5 months." Kyle said to Dr. Webber. "You may have to talk to your mom about it, I'm not sure how okay she'd be with that." Dr. Webber was backspacing something on the keyboard.

Now Kyle had to talk to his mom and dad, or Stan could possibly.

This is why Kyle told Stan to leave him even though that wasn't even one of the last things he wanted.

Dr. Webber went on to explain to the boys that the medication was normally supposed to be held onto by the legal guardian of the person getting it.

When Sheila found out she was going to flip shit. Kyle could hear her screams from imagining her find out.

Stan was told he had to leave, which made Kyle become upset at a very great amount.

"I'll be back tomorrow. Hang in there." Stan hugged Kyle close to his body. "Don't leave, Stan. Please." Kyle's tears wanted to bring tears to Stan's own eyes.
