Sam tries to take Jackson's weight off me, but he won't let go.

"I have to go back inside."

I place my hands against his stomach, trying to push him away.

"You…don't...come…mine." He grows more incoherent.

"He's getting worse." Fear grips my chest, restricting my breaths.

"Julia is making some calls," Sam informs.

I feel a tremor run through Jackson's body and my fear turns to panic.

"Something's wrong." I shake my head.

"He's just high," Sam says, disgust dripping in his tone. "From what Julia says, he's been partying hard all evening with his dealer and what she assumes are hookers."

Nausea cramps my stomach, but Jackson's the one who throws up between Sam and me.

"Fuck," Sam growls, yanking harder on Jackson and pulling him toward the waiting car. Jackson's head lolls to the left.

Something’s wrong. I can feel it, see it.

"Wait!" I catch up, taking part of the weight.

"Miss, I can get him back to the hotel," Sam states, shoving Jackson roughly into the back of the car.

I look back at my building, glancing up to my apartment window. Then I turn to Jackson, sprawled in the backseat.

What the fuck am I doing?

I climb into the car, closing the door behind me.

Taking Jackson's phone once again, I send Sid a text, letting her know what I'm doing. I'm too much of a coward to call. The car pulls away from the curb and Jackson's body starts to slip from the seat.

Resituating our positions, I slip under his head, placing it on my lap.

Putting my elbow against the door, I rest my head in my hand.

"Snake charmer." I ignore the murmur, but movement draws my attention.

Jackson pulls himself up, digging in his jacket. He takes out a small, clear vial, trying to twist the little cap off.

Anger rolls from the pit of my stomach to my throat.

"Are you fucking kidding me?" I yell, snatching the vial away from him.

"Come on, I'll share." He grins. "Have you ever fucked when high? It's amazing."

He leans, pressing his body against me.

"Yeah, I'm sure with all the shit in your system you could perform real well." I don't hide my sarcasm or anger.

Pressing the window button, I roll it down and toss the vial out.

"What the fuck?" he snarls, reaching for the window. "That's all I have on me."

He turns hard eyes on me.

"But you have more at the hotel?" I ask, meeting his glare with one of my own.

"I don't want to fight with you." His eyes soften. "I'm sorry."

His eyes roll into his head, causing panic to well inside my chest. He goes limp, landing in my lap. The shaking of his body is not a good sign. I wrap my arms around him and yell, "Sam!"

The divider window comes down.

"He's shaking." Looking up from Jackson's body, I meet Sam's eyes in the rearview mirror. "We need to take him to the hospital."

With a nod, he puts his phone to his ear.

Turning my attention back to Jackson, I make sure he stays breathing. I don't hear much of what Sam is saying on the phone, so when we pull into the garage of the hotel, I'm pissed.
