Finding the errant cousin
Who: Anthony and Alec (Closed) - NOW WITH OPEN SECTION (Visit Alec in Hospital)
What: Alec is drunk and wandering New York with a traitorous med alert bracelet letting his cousin know where he is. He is about to be found.
It goes poorly and Alec ends up being emergency transported to Mount Sinai Hospital where his heart is restarted and he is forced to stay for observation until Monday (May 18th)
When: Right after Alec's post, Evening of May 13th
Where: The subways of NYC
Rating/Warnings: One angry hurt drunk - anything could happen : Heart attack and Hospital mentions
Alec hadn't been at the hotel when Anthony arrived though the owner remembered having seen him... after being slipped fifty dollars and being threatened with motorcycle skid marks all over his lobby which was apparently the only room in the place he actually worried about being clean. Fortunately the med alert bracelet was still with Alec and still in pinging distance of the head office. Anthony chased that signal from one end of New York to the other until it occurred to him the only way his cousin could move that quickly was if he were on the subway.
Anthony's boot clicked against the concrete floor as he finally tracked the signal down to a certain station at the correct time for him to hop onto the train. He even managed to find the correct car before the whole train lurched forward and began its circuit around the city again.
"Wake up."
The soul of Alec's shoe was given a soft kick to aide in that request.
"What are you doing sleeping in the subway? Anyone could have found you down here."

"What the hell-- Everyone keeps bloody stalking me. Leave me the fuck alone would you?"

His head boobed towards those many pockets.
"What's wrong? Did you lose your pills?"
no subject
Christ--" He leaned back, tugging at his collar, trying to breathe.
"Fuck you. Fuck you. Wish I'd stayed in bloody Scotland."

He reached over and despite any protests or smacking hands loosened the top few buttons of Alec's collar.
"Don't blame me for that..."
Anthony then patted down the few pockets he could see until the pill bottle finally dropped out into his hand where it could be handed back to Alec.
"I had googles on, 'normal life' goggles which are sort of like beer googles only you get them from trying to please others. I didn't always want to be the rebel... for a while I dreamed about actually fitting in for once."
Not that Alec would have any concept of that. He had always fit in with the family. The good son, the why can't you be as responsible as Alec...
"Can you get the bottle open or do you need help?"

"Fine. Next time I won't help. Next time I'll sit back and watch the both of you suffer. I'm sorry for ruining your perfect life. Add it to the list. Fuck." The bottle spilled out of his hands and went sliding across the floor. Alec slid down to the floor to get them and then closed his eyes as a wave of darkness washed over him.
"You never needed to fit in, you shit. You've always been fine just how you are. Always been loved just how you are." He turned his head up and tried to focus on Anthony-- and maybe they were in a tunnel because things had gone dim. "Just be happy."

His cousin looked more haunted that usual, his eyes more sunken and dim. It terrified Anthony to the core of his very being.
"Alec!"
The cell phone had never been far from his hand but he now used it to dial 911 instead of texting updates. On a train heading for station... yeah, that's right. Heart condition. No he hasn't been taking his medication correctly. He's been on a bender. All that might have sounded like a blur to Alec. He might not even have noticed when his cousin joined him on the floor just to hold his shoulders and try to ensure he kept breathing. Maybe he wouldn't know much of anything at all until the paramedics arrived and the oxygen mask was secured over his airways.

And if his heart had to be restarted later, well-- at least it was. Though he was unaware of everything except the dark.
