Chapter thirty two

The days got slower one by one.

At work today I was really out of it. Service was slow. And a lot of people were pissed off with me.

I leaned against the counter. Propping my head up on my hand. I zoned out on the pool table that sat in front of me.

" You alright?"

I slowly looked at eyeball as he looked slightly concerned. I shrugged.

" I feel like shit"

He nodded " nothin' on ya?"

I shake my head " Nope, used it all this morning"

He handed me a cigarette and lit it for me.

" Thanks"

He nods " How has work been?"

" Slow"

" can tell. You want me to take you home? I can tell Doug you ain't feelin' great."

" Its fine. I've missed work enough from hangovers and shit. "

He sighs " You unhappy?"

I looked back at him again. I didn't know.

" I guess I'm just feelin' kinda lost"

I felt my skin tingle a bit.

" Elliot..?"

I stood up straight and thats when everything turned black.

-

Next thing I woke up in a bright room.

It was quiet but I heard shuffling next to me. I looked over to see Teddy and Eyeball jump up.

" W-hat happened..?"

" You passed out.. how much fucking drugs you been snorting?" Teddy sighed heavily.

" What do you mean?"

" Doc said that there was way to much drugs in your system. " Eyeball stepped in.

I looked forward at the blank wall.

" Lee.. I cant have you be doin' this again. Your not takin' any more coke."

I furrowed my eyebrows " Why's it matter. Im fine now!"

" Because I dont wanna come home to you dead.."

" Yeah.. c'mon you cant keep doin' this" Eyeball looked down.

I rolled my eyes " I wanna leave. lets go" I sat up taking these wire attached patches off of me.

" Nah uh" Teddy pushed me back down.

" Let go of me!"

He shook his head " No. your staying here. You need to rest"

" I can fuckin' rest at home" I spat.

" Stop it" eyeball gave me a cold stare.

I finally stopped fighting back and glared at the wall.

I felt my eyelids get heavy, and then once again black took over my vision.

-

By the time the hospital was done testing me I finally got to go home.

Teddy was unhappy. Eyeball was unhappy. I was unhappy.

" Your quittin' all the shit your doing. I dont give a shit what you say" Eyeball spoke sternly.

" Who says you dictate my life?"

" We're protecting you Elliot " Teddy said coldly.

" Fuck both of you. You cant tell me what the fuck I can or can't do. I dont give a shit if I end up dead from it! "

I stormed off, leaving the two in the livingroom.

" Can you talk to her? I cant with this right now" Teddy sighed.

" Yeah"

Eyeball walked in, closing the door behind him and looked at me.

I was laying under the covers of my bed and he walked over, laying beside me.

" What do you want"

He wraps his arms around me " Whats going on"

" Nothing is 'going on'"

" Then why did the doctor say you almost overdosed?"

I shrugged " Dont care. "

" I do."

" Since when did you actually give a shit about me?"

He sighed " Always.. I always have"

I rolled my eyes with a chuckle " Yeah right"

He sighed, put his hand on my shoulder and pushed me down so I was now on my back.

He had a look of sadness.

" I've been a horrible person. To you.. "

" so what?"

He seemed taken back

" I love you alright?"

Now i noticed... everything was from absolute jealousy.

Jealousy because he loved me, but was scared I was like his Ex.
