he scene opened up inside a warm and soft hospital room. Cody Carson was laying there, staring at the ceiling. His bed sheet was a soft white and his head was wrapped in a white cotton wrap. He had a neck brace on and his arms were limp at his sides. The IV stuck in his arm and a heart monitor was attacked to his chest. The only sound was the beating of the monitor as Cody’s heart beat. They where suppose to be in two hours ago to shut it off, seeing as Carson had finally stopped slipping in and out of conciseness. Cody forced his arm up to scratch his nose, but it dropped limply again. He groaned softly.
“Fucking beeping. I really hate this shit… I am going to kill someone.” Cody said to himself out loud. The door to his room slowly opened and he tried to sit up. He could barely move but he managed to get a glimpse of who it was before he fell back down. “Come to brag about your new boyfriend?”
Carmen Dumas came into view as she walked up to the side of the bed and pulled the chair up next to it. She looked at Cody who, once again refused to look at her, staring at the ceiling. “Cody… I‘m…”
Cody’s mouth quivered a bit and he forced himself not to look at the pain in her face. He knew that she was in pain to see him like this. He could tell from her voice. “Don‘t.”
“I feel like I…”
“Don‘t.” Cody said more forcefully.
“But Cody… I.”
“Damn it Carmen, don‘t you under fucking stand that I could care less what your feeling right now? I really don‘t care if your sorry or if you in pain… Or in love with another man… I really don‘t care.” Cody said in probably the most serious voice he had ever used with her..
“Why? Why do you have to be this way Cody?” She asked as tears rolled down her face.
“Why…. YOU HAVE THE NERVE TO ASK ME WHY?” Cody yelled and then winced at the pain in his neck and head. Carmen reached up and touched his face. “Don‘t fucking touch me. Its not of your fucking business anyway.”
Carmen wiped the tears from her eyes. “Cody I… I…” She stopped, thinking for a second. “He‘s not my boyfriend, he gave me a ride.”
“Did you return the favour?” Cody snapped, and as soon as he said then he regretted them.
“Of course you dip shit.” Carmen said with a smirk. “No… It was my brother Jay.”
“Sure it was.”
“You know what Carson. Your not even worth it anymore. I thought I could wait for you to come around but your turning into my brother in law and your hating it.”
“Fuck you.” Cody said, knowing his words meant nothing.
“Fuck me?” Carmen scoffed. “Maybe once.”
Cody forced back the smile, not wanting to reveal that just having her there was good enough for him right now. He closed his eyes a swallowed hard.
“What‘s wrong babe… tell me.”
“Nothings wrong.” Cody said a little to forceful then he meant it. “Just leave me alone.”
Carmen stood up as tears made her makeup run down her face and she sniffled. She bit her bottom lip and walked to the door, looking back at Cody she felt she owed it to him to tell him how she felt. “For your information, Cam will never be you. So I could not love Cam. Because of you.” She scoffed. “I love you Cody.”
Cody swallowed and wanted nothing more then to tell he the same thing. It was like he was in a different world. Like he was watching himself say something he didn’t want to say. “Leave.” Carmen shook her head and walked out of the room as Cody got a stern look on his face. “I don‘t need her.” As much as he wanted to, Cody forced himself to believe he didn’t need Carmen. But he knew he did.
./dos.
The scene opens up with Cody Carson sitting in a wheel chair. A nurse with breast to big for her shirt was pushing him down the hall. His eyes are closed and his mind a blur. The nurse seemed to be a little concerned for him. And a little bored as they made their way to the elevator. Cody opened his eyes as they stopped and stared at his blurred reflection in the silver doors. He tried to drop his head but the neck brace prevented it. So he was left to stare at the blurred version on himself. He started to think about his life, and about what had happened earlier. His life was starting to become all fucked up and for the simple but hardest reason he had ever had to face. But suddenly the doors opened and Cody was pushed inside and slammed into the back of the elevator.
“What the fuck? I mean I know your horny and all you dumb blonde bitch. But Fuck I‘m injured here.” Cody said still not being able to turn and look at who was now pushing him.
“Mr. Carson, such language.” came a familiar female voice.
“Jalie Thomas.” Cody said, hardly surprised now.
Jalie pops to the side of the wheelchair seeing as Carson can’t turn to look at her and smiles. “How‘d you guess?”
Cody took a deep breath. “Jalie, look… I shouldn‘t have taken that shot at you a…” Jalie’s laugher stopped him.
“Fuck you Carson. You got into a car accident and now you apologizing…” Jalies shoots back around and looks right into Cody’s eyes. “Did the crash fuck what brain you did have up there…up?”
“What happened to my other nurse?” Cody asked, changing the subject.
“Oh… Her… Yeah… umm…” Jalie started.
“What did you do?”
“Nothing. Don‘t worry about it.” Jalie said with a smirk. “So where are we going?”
“Hell.”
“No, that would be to much fun dip shit.”
“I got to go to rehabilitation.”
“Ah.” Jalie looks up at the numbers and then looks back at Carson. “So, what happened?”
“What do you mean?”
“The accident fuck head.”
“Well, I was driving, and I got T-Boned by the guy. Plain and simple ”
“So, why where you all snappy.” Jalie asked, honestly wanting to know.
Cody fell silent and suddenly the doors clicked open. Jalie stared out at the weight room and slowly pushed Cody into it. Cody feeling all pissed off that everyone wanted to know why he was so pissed off all of the sudden, felt like he could walk. He himself didn’t really know what was sparking this anger inside of him. But he put up shield after shield, not letting anyone one in. He knew it was wrong, but really he could care less. He pushed himself up and out of the chair and nurses rush to his side as his legs crumbled under him. Jalie stared on in horror, never seeing Carson this bad off before. The doctor’s and nurses tried to help them up but Cody called Jalie. She reluctantly moved to his side and kneeled.
“Get them the fuck away from me.” Cody said in a world of pain.
“Cody, I know your stubborn and all. But this is a little much dude.” Jalie said, touching the back of his head, Jalie hated feeling so helpless when her dear friend needed him most but what could she do.
“If you‘re not going to help me, get away from me.” Cody said as spit shot from his mouth and hung ther as he tried to push himself up. He had it to his hands and knees, breathing hard. The Nurse tried to help him, but Jalie stepped over Carson and intercepted her.
“He can do it by himself. He doesn‘t want your help.” She spun to them all glaring at them. “He doesn‘t want any of your help. So back the fuck off.” She looked back at Carson who nodded his head the best he could. He reached up behind his neck and pilled the Velcro strap, taking it off.
“Thank you.” Cody said, in short deep breathes.
Jalie kneeled beside him again and he used her shoulder to pull himself up. He stood tall and stared at her. “How are you going to wrestle Sunday?”
Cody smirked but then actually thought about it. The smirk faded away and he started to think to himself. Then he spoke his thought allowed. “I don‘t know jalie… I don‘t know.”
