In search of Tucker

Jan 10, 2005 11:35

There has never been a movie that put me through the wonderful rollercoaster of emotions that the live video feed from the Initiative base did. Such drama, such humor... oh! Bravo, to all the Scoobies! Amanda and I were very entertained. In the end, as I basked in the afterglow of Warren's genius, I finally had no words to describe what I was ( Read more... )

The younger Wells opened the door and stuck his head in before giving it a second thought and exiting. I chuckled a bit to myself as he closed the door, wondering what must be going on in that tiny blonde skull of his. Can't be good for a young man to see his elder brother hog-tied on the bed. Luckily, Andrew's boyfriend could afford to get him the best counselling that money can buy.

He came back, though. They always do. He stared at the still-sleeping Tucker. I'd put a blanket on him over the night, as I lay silent and still beside him, but he'd shrugged it off at some point. Exposing his bonds, the lack of blood at the points of contact, the needle marks on his arms.

"I-is Tucker alright?", the boy asked, entering the room (without an invitation, I noted) and still staring at Tucker ( ... )

I blinked several more times, looking between Caleb and Tucker uneasily, not sure what I should be making of this scene. I mean, if Caleb had been Warren, I'd know exactly what had happened here... but he was a preacher or some other kind of holy man, right? So he didn't do that sort of thing. Not to my brother, at least.

"Oh, he's just fine. He made some serious mistakes last night and I meant to keep him from making a couple more."

Mistakes? Like what? Again, I looked at this dodgy sort of scene with wide eyes, trying to figure out exactly what took place in this room. I mean, my brother was tied up on a bed that this Caleb guy had been lying on! How was I supposed to take this?

My mouth opened and closed a few silent times as Caleb... buckled his belt?! No! No, that... no. I don't think Tucker could have been that drunk as to have... no.

"Care to have a seat? There are a couple things I'd like to have a word with you about. Regarding your older brother."I sat down immediately in the fancy chair beside the dresser near the door ( ... )

I crossed from the bed to the sitting area and poured the little Wells a glass of water. Offering it to him, he reluctantly took it and put it on the end table next to him like it was poison ( ... )

W-wait, Tucker was going to die? But... but what about the rehab? Warren put him in rehab to help him and stuff! I remember, 'cause all through it I kept visiting and staying with him, even through the parts where he was constantly angry at me and the parts where he was all twitching and throwing up and the parts that looked even more painful than all of that. He got better! I watched him! I helped as much as I could! What... what happened ( ... )

I looked at the little brother, waiting to see what he'd say. Supposin' that he knew more about what in the "holy motherfucking hell" was going on, his answer might be valuable. It'd be good to know what the boy did and didn't keep from Tucker. It was obvious that there was a mutual fondness between them, but there was a level of casual disregard from Tucker to Andrew. Like he knew what he was supposed to do and say and act like, but that he didn't care enough to actually follow through and do it ( ... )

I swallowed hard, listening to what Caleb was saying to Tucker. It was hard... Tucker looked so angry, and I was so scared, and I wasn't sure whether or not I trusted this Caleb guy yet. Tucker obviously wanted me to say something, but I hadn't been there last night and I really didn't know what had happened after I'd gone off to Warren's room.

I hated it when Tucker looked so angry every time I tried to help him. Believe me, if all his drugs weren't going to kill him someday, I'd have left him to them. Why keep him from doing the things that make him happy, so long as he wasn't hurting himself. But... was that selfish of me? I mean, I guess Tucker wanted what he was doing to himself to happen, and because I didn't want him to die, I was trying my best to keep him from doing it. Was I doing the right thing? Or... or did Tucker have the right to kill himself with all his drugs ( ... )
