"Tk you need to take your meds ." Carlos said stopping Tk in his tracks as he made a b line for the door "Right.." Tk said backtracking
" you need to eat too." Carlos said opening the fridge " I'm not hungry ." Tk said swallowing his meds "That's what got us into this mess you recall ?" Carlos hummed looking back at Tk's meal plan on the fridge
Tk just grabbed a banana and left
When he got to work he threw the banana into the trash which made a lot of the team turn their heads as Tk made his way up to the bunk room
He was tying his shoelace when Nancy came in "Hey buddy... I noticed you threw away your food I just wanted-." Nancy said, " I'm fine ." Tk said getting up "Well I know you have a meal plan and everything that you're supposed to follow - I just don't want you to relapse you know ." Nancy said
"Nance I appreciate your concern but seriously I'm fine," Tk said leaving the bunk room.
Lunchtime came and went and Tk didn't touch a single grain of food and his stomach was feeling it they got back from a call and Tk made an excuse just to barf in the bathroom
"He came home just to find Carlos sitting at the counter with a plate of food for Tk and his arms crossed ."
"I ate-" Tk lied putting his coat on the hood swallowing the nausea deeply "Nausea hits hard when you don't eat all day ." Carlos said "What do you wanna do? Bust my balls?" Tk snarked
" if that's what it takes for you to follow a damn meal plan yes Tyler ." Carlos said in a stern tone "You didn't put us through all this shit this year for nothing ."Carlos said
" I love how it's so hard for you ." Tk said " I fucking dealt with this shit for years. I was the one who spent a week in a psych Ward for you! To get better for you! But I put you through all this shit ."
" yeah, Tk because it's not just you who's going through it! I'm there at every doctor's appointment every day when you refuse to take your meds which makes you human half of the time!" Carlos said he took a minute to think back "Tk - I didn't - you know what I mean ."
"No, I know what you meant."
" If I'm fucking too much for you then get a pen we can sign the divorce papers right now," Tk said looking at Carlos biting his lip
" you wanna see how little I fucking care about recovery," it said brushing past Carlos grabbing his meal plan on the fridge tearing it in half
Tw(it's getting graphic here.)
He grabbed a knife from the knife slicing it across his wrist he watched the knife drop to the floor and was covered in his blood before he started breaking down in tears he lowered himself to the ground where Carlos joined him with a cloth
"In sorry ." Tk said looking down with teary vision as the blood pulsing from his wrist " I'm sorry I'm sorry ." Tk cried "It's okay baby ." Carlos said, " I wanna recover and I'm trying I am trying.." Tk cried as the blood-soaked through the towel
"We need to get you to the hospital baby ." Carlos said "No hospitals ." Tk said
"Ty, you need one ." Carlos said softly "No please don't send me back there you know what they will do with me ." Tk cried
And that's how Tommy Vega ended up at the front doorstep
Carlos greeted Tommy at the door "he had an episode... And he refuses to go to a hospital." Carlos Said as Tommy came in "Hey buddy heard you had a little accident ." Tommy said
Tk just looked up at Tommy "I'm not gonna report it this is between you and me ." Tommy assured Tk " Carlos you might wanna get over here this tunicate is gonna hurt like hell ." Tommy said
Half an hour and 20 stitches later Tk was all stitched up "Thanks." Tk said quietly "Call in sick tomorrow I mean it ." Tommy said kissing Tk's head
"Okay ."
Later that night after Carlos cleaned the kitchen up he joined TK in bed "You were right ." Carlos said, " I never could and will understand what's going on inside your mind and I was wrong to lose my temper with you ." Carlos said
"I just want you to know that when you're hurting I'm hurting too so it's not just you who is going through it ."
"I'm sorry about everything.." Tk said Carlos just kissed his head softly " I think maybe you should start seeing your therapist again and maybe we can meet up with your nutritionist and figure out an easier meal plan and work you back up ." Carlos said, " I'd like that ." Tk said softly
