Psychotic Greene part 2
Light suddenly assaults your eyes and you groan.
"Oh my god! Greene!" The masculine voice barely reaches you past the waves crashing into your mind.
You open your eyes to see the blurry outline of Dad's bald head looking down at you as he kneels by the tub.
Must be a pretty pathetic sight for him.
His 18 year old son, balled up in the bathtub, wrapped up in dino-nuggie bathcurtains, sobbing to himself as the bathroom smells like puke.
He gives you a frown, probably about to start yelling at you, or something.
It doesn't stops you from basically tackling him, stuffing your face into his jacket as you let out a muffled wail, being scolded is the least of your worries.
But none of it comes. No stern words or a raised voice.
Why would it? It's your Dad after all.
Instead two large arms pull you into a caring hug pulling you close.
You hold on as if everything depends on it.
Because it does.
"I'm sorry, Dad." You blurt out between sobs. "I-" You hiccup.
"It's okay." he calmly whispers, holding you tight. "I'm here."
The screams are still there, roaring in your mind like a storm, but they're a bit easier to ignore now.
Eventually, after what feels like an hour, you feel like you can pull away from Dad without freaking out, and the both of you end up sitting on the rim of the bathtub as he keeps one hand on your back.
Voices from the door, Your head snaps in that direction.
Mom stands in the doorway, phone up to her ear, attention split on keeping her eyes on you, and intently listening to whoever she's talking to.
She looks like she's aged a few years.
Behind her is Amber with a deeply-worried look.
Maybe if you didn't turn down her offer earlier you wouldn't be in this mess.
Mom gives whoever she was talking with a quick "Thanks Jude, bye." before hanging up with a sigh.
She gives you a smile filled with love as she slowly makes her way to you, giving Dad a look you can't deciper.
He simply nods, getting up and allowing Mom to take his place.

She reaches out for your hand, but stops, looking up at you with cautious eyes.
"Can I-?" her voice is gentle, as if you would shatter from the slightest disturbance.
You nod and she slowly, yet firmly grips your hand.
"Greene?" She asks.
"Yeah Mom?" Your voice is so hoarse after so much you need to swallow after just two words.
"Are you okay?"
You can't bring yourself to lie.
"No."
She winces, squeezing your hand tighter as she opens her mouth.
You can tell she wants to say something, but just... doesn't know what.
Who would?
So... she doesn't say anything. Instead slowly pulling you into tight hug.
Despite feeling like you were all cried out a moment ago, your eyes begin to water again.
"My baby boy..." her voice quivers. "My precious little emerald...".
Even as you're losing your mind, Mom's nicknames will never fail to make you groan.
Eventually she pulls away, looking alot less stressed.
That's good. You don't need to make things harder for her. For any of them.
Even though that's all you seem to do.
You squeeze Mom's hand and she immediately seems to know something is wrong.
"Do you need something dear?"
"My medicine ran out."
Her eyebrows furrow.
"What happened to your spare?"
A unpleasent feeling fills you as you look down.
"I... pulled my drawer out onto the floor and I couldn't find it."
Mom puts a hand on your back.
"It's okay hon. Amber?"
Your twin straightens out in the bathroom doorway as Mom calls her name.
"Yeah?"
"Can you grab your brother's meds? They should be in- by Greene's top dresser drawer in his room."
She gives a silly salute, exclaiming "Aye aye sar!" in an equally dorky tone.
It's so dumb you can't help but snort.
Amber smiles, satisfied with your reaction as she marches off to your room.
During that time Dad had came back for a moment to wrap you in a big fuzzy blanket, Mom giggling as he basically put you in a straight jacket the first attempt, she gave him a kiss on the cheek.

"You're such a good father. Dweeb."
Dad sputtered and blushed, excusing himself from the bathroom as Mom laughed.
It was sweet, sickingly so. You were tempted to throw up again.
Before any more time had past, Amber had came back to the bathroom, orange bottle in her hand.
It rattles as she reaches it out to you.
Full of your sanity.
You've never been more relieved to see a pill bottle in your entire life.
Mom snatches it before you can even raise your arm.
In a flash she has it open, and then shut again before she offers you two tablets.
You just as quickly take them as she stands up.
"Let me get you some water dear."
You've already swallowed down the pills, the slight uncomfort in your throat is a well worth trade to end this nightmare as soon as possible.
Mom isn't enthused but she doesn't say anything as she hums to herself and hands you a glass of bathroom sink water.
Even though it's luke warm, tastes funky, and leaves a funny aftertaste because you just woke up, you gulp it down fast enough that Mom calls out your name.
"Greene! Slow down, you're gonna choke!"
You almost do just that, but you don't care. Between the sweating, vomitting, and crying, the likely fluoride saturated water was like ambrosia to you.
Deep breaths leave your beak as Mom goes back to soothingly rubbing her hand on your back.
"Greene?"
Amber's voice calls out to you. Her tone is calm... well as calm by Amber's standards anyways. You look her way as your camo-encased phone is suddenly handed to you
"It was on the floor by your desk. Mel was blowin up your phone like crazy."
You switch on the screen, and... yeah. A ton of texts from mel, a few missed calls.
Unlocking your phone, you open up your chat with her.
'Im home'
Call that lasted a few seconds.
'Whyd u hang up? ):'
'Something happen? You sounded wierd'
'Greeney?'
That must have been what that call was.
You continue reading.
'Greene?'
'U ok?'
'?'

A missed call.
'Youre starting to scare me'
'Did you have an attack?'
Another missed call.
'Please answer'
Another.
'I called your mom and dad'
'Please be okay'
'I love you'
Every single text breaks your heart.
You think for a moment before starting to tap away at the digital keyboard.
'I'm here.'
'Yeah, had an attack and I couldn't find my medicine. Couldn't answer my phone. I'm okay now. Sorry.'
...
Phew...
>Think the attack is mostly over now.
>Amber asks me how I'm feeling.
>Give her a smile.
>They both look relieved as Mom asks me what happened.
>Woke up in a daze, freaked out over a phone call, couldn't find pills, felt sick, threw up in the bathroom, slipped into the tub, etc...
>Decide to leave out the part about the whole gun hallucination thing.
>Mom and Amber give me a hug, Mom tells me that she's booking me an appointment with my psychiatrist first thing in the morning.
>Psychiatrist visits are always exhausting as all hell, but I'm not really in a position to whine.
>Afterwards learn that while I was sleeping they all went to quickly grab some emergency groceries, only for Mom to get a call from Mel crying and freaking out over me not answering any of her calls so they came right back.
>God I love that girl.
>Mom asks me if I need anything else.
>Think to myself for a moment.
>"Can I... have a lemon?"
>Amber's starts giggling and Mom's eyes widen.
>She sighs before getting up and heading downstairs.
>Amber asks me if I wanna play some Rock Ring or some Inheritance Of The Past.
>"Sure, gotta call Mel first. She's probably nibbling off her tail spikes due to nerves by now."
>She nods, heading out of the bathroom right as Mom comes back with two halves of a lemon.
>Take a big ol bite out of one, savoring the pleasant sour taste while I push down the urge to laugh as Mom gives me a disgusted look.
>She leaves and I pull out my phone to call Mel.

>She almost immediately answers, exclaiming my name while sounding like she's a small ways away from breaking down herself.
>Takes a bit to calm her down, but eventually she sighs and says that she's glad I'm okay.
>Just take a moment to sit there, wrapped in a warm blanket, chomping on my favorite fruit, talking with my girlfriend as my sister loads up a game for us to play in the other room.
>It ain't easy bein' Greene.
>But the people around you make it easier.
5/5

Well I was putting this off for a while, probably because I was dreading continuing it past a part I wasn't happy with and you can tell that by the end there I just wanted to finish. Hope yall enjoyed the read anyways. I'm fucking tired.
