Raquel feels her heart being torn down the middle as she hears the news. She doesn't say anything, she simply walks into the room, moves a chair up to Shawns bed, and rests her head on his chest, tears pooling into the hospital gown

Cryonix Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:03 pm

Shawn: S....o....wh...atdid.....the....do....ctor.....hav....e.....to say, hon.....? When.....a...m......I....gett...ing......out.......of....he....re...?

Pockets Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:04 pm

Alexis: I know he's not really big on his dad right now... but you might want to let him... and maybe your dad... know.

She sends separate texts to both of her parents and Colin, all with the same message.
caley got to shawn... he's in the hospital, Alex found him... he might not make it... she got heroin in him...

One response, the one from her mother, comes almost immediately.
WHAT??? What hospital? Where are you?

Cruel Britannia Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:06 pm

Ewan appears behind Alexis.

Ewan: Alex has been keeping us all informed. Are you doing OK Alexis?

Jabberwocky Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:07 pm

Raquel:"Y....yeah baby....you.....you just......just need ...rest.....you'll .....be fine.....I'm not......not going....anywhere.....til you are fine....I'm not...."

Colin and Ashley both respond in unison. Ashley is more calm. Colin, however, is not

Ashley:"Where is he?"

Colin:"I swear I'm going to kill her

Pockets Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:13 pm

Alexis looks down at her phone.

Alexis: I'm alright... although I think mom might kill me....

Text to her mother

Text to Colin

Cryonix Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:14 pm

Shawn: Se...e? I.....'m.....gg...oooin....g....to be......fine.....so....

One of the alarms on the machines, indicating a tremendous drop in blood pressure, goes off. Shawn passes out. Doctors and nurses rush in...

Jabberwocky Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:17 pm

Ashley:"Christ...Keep me posted."

Colin:"That will keep me very warm at night if Shawn doesn't make it..."

Raquel frantically holds on to Shawns arm as the medical staff rush in

Pockets Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:20 pm

i will dad

She reads Colin's and is starting to get a headache.
well we're all still in london so have a fun time getting here... i don't know if she's even still here

Jabberwocky Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:22 pm

Colin:"I'm sorry...I never thought she would stoop so low though."

Cruel Britannia Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:25 pm

Seeing her frustration Alex pulls her tight into him and starts stroking her head.

Cryonix Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:27 pm

Shawn's body starts to shake, and the doctors have to try to strap him down...

Doctor 1: He's muscle spasing!

Doctor 2: I know, I know! Nurse, get me 50 cc's of texynolyze, stat!

The nurse hurries and injects it into Shawn's IV....slowly...Shawn's violent shaking slows...and finally stops. The alarm goes off and Shawn's eyes open up again. They have gotten a murky black....and are still watering. He finishes his sentence like nothing happened....

Shawn: ....don'......t.....cr....y.....bab....e......I.....'..'ll be.....r...ight....a.s.....rai.......n.....sooooooon......al....righ....t....? You...a.....nd.....i...hav.e.....a....chhh.....i...l.d....on......th.....e...wa...y....I....w...i....ll.....be....he....r.e....

Pockets Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:28 pm

Alexis sighs.

Alexis: I'm alright... just the messenger getting shot a little bit.

Cruel Britannia Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:29 pm

Alex: Yeah.... Colin tends to do that.

Jabberwocky Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:34 pm

Raquel:"I...I know you will be I...I love you Shawn"

Cryonix Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:37 pm

Shawn: I..............lllll.........ove.....you......ba.....by....

He smiles again as he closes his eyes....

Shawn: s....o.......t.....ir....ed.....

Jabberwocky Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:39 pm

Raquel walks up to him, holding his hand

Pockets Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:39 pm

Alexis: Should we go see how Shawn is doing?

Cruel Britannia Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:41 pm

Alex nods and takes Alexis' hand.

Alex: Sure.

Ewan follows close behind.

Cryonix Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:46 pm

As they enter the room, Shawn's condition is very...very bad. Shawn's eyes are still that murky black, he's on oxygen and he is ever so pale. Now his veins are showing through his skin...and they are shades of purple and black as well. He looks to see who entered the room....

Shawn: E....wan.....m......y......f....ri....en...d......and......th....e.....ha.....ppy........couple........t....hi....s.....is....a....s.s.s....s.s.s..s..u....r..pr...is...e....!

Doctor: His condition is ...I'm sorry to say...getting worse.

Jabberwocky Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:48 pm

Raquel sits back down, still holding Shawn's hand as she rests her head back down against his chest and closes her eyes. The whole world at this moment doesn't exist except her and Shawn. She doesn't even register anybody else coming in the room

Pockets Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:50 pm

Alexis can't bear to look, she buries her head into Alex's shoulder.

Cryonix Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:53 pm

Shawn: He.....y.....kk....ido.....Ale.....xis.....yo....u've.....g.....roown....so.......much.......Yo.....u'll....mmma....ke.....a....l....ovel.....y.......b....ride.....

Pockets Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:55 pm

Alexis turns back around, trying to keep control.

Alexis: You just saw me a little while ago... and you're talking like you're not coming to the wedding.

Jabberwocky Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:59 pm

Raquel, still eyes closed, starts to say something softly...a poem she learned as a child...her head still resting on Shawn's chest

Raquel:"Once I had a heart of stone
For it had surley lost its home
It could not love or wanted too
But in my life, then came you.

she swallows sadness, then continues

The stones began to fall away
As happiness began to fill my day
A feeling so sweet and special too
Could this be love, I pray is true.
~sniffle~
My heart now sings a song of love
For I know that it was sent from above
My heart is warm, there is no cold
Hard no more, but with wings of gold.

It soars above the sky so high
Sometimes I think of why and cry
My heart now sings a loving song
For the part of me I thought was gone.

The gift that you have given me
Is so important, can't you see
No more sadness or being alone
For now my heart returns to home."

her closed eyes open up, as she looks up at him, her eyes full of tears
