|Chapter 2| We Didn't Sign Up For This

Frankie's P.O.V.

Today is the day. The day me and Aahliya have to go to our 'jobs'. I am not ready for this! I don't know whats in that place?! Anyways, I get up out of my bed and make my way to my closet. I didn't want to dress up too much so I chose a pair of ripped skinny jeans with a university sweatshirt. They cant yell at me for not dressing appropriately, can they? I shook the thoughts out of my head and walked to my bathroom, again doing the same routine as yesterday.

I checked the time on my oven and it read 7:23. Great, now I don't have any time to eat. While heading out my back door, I grab my car keys. Aahliya told me to pick her up on the way, so that's what I'm doing right now. I started the engine and buckled my seat belt. My favorite song on the radio started playing so I turned it up, almost to full volume. Making my way downtown (no pun intended(: ...) I reached Aahliya's house in no time. While honking my horn, her head shot up and looked in my direction. I waved her to come on, unless we were going to be late on our first day.

She shot up from her seat and ran to the passenger side's door. A cold gush of wind swirled around my car for a second when she closed it.

"I did not want to waste my Saturday in the loony bin." Aahliya said rolling her eyes and looking out of the window.

"We never know what can happen, alright?" I said trying to brighten the mood for her, and me. I honestly didnt know what exactly to say in this situation, simply because, it has never happened.

As we pulled up to the modern looking asylum, the front of the building spelled out Tranquil Heights in bold blue writing. I gulped and looked at Aahliya. She seemed like she was scowling at the words and soon, got out of the car. I followed in suit and caught up to her, right before she entered. We walked in together and once you're inside those doors, it smells like a docter's office and a dentist office combined. I couched slight and we made our way to the front desk.

The man that was working there looked up and I could not look away from his chocolate brown eyes. He resembled a puppy dog for some reason.

"May I help you?" he said in a polite manner. I looked at Aahliya to say something because I was never good at talking to new people. She just giggled to herself because of my actions and started speaking.

"Yeah, we're the two student volunteers that have to work here for a month. Does it ring a bell?" she said and I smiled at what she said. The man who's named tag said Liam smiled and nodded. He grabbed four manila folders off of the corner of the desk.

"You girls and me, are going to be working with four patients." he said and right after my mouth gaped open. This is what I was dreading. I don't want to work with patients?! I Looked at Aahliya and she looked like she was doing the same thing I was doing. Gaping.

"Uhm. W-We're aloud to do that?" I stuttered out from my shyness. He looked up and searched my face for something. Did I have something on it?

"Uh yes. They can't do us no harm, trust me. We have the best body guards in the state." he said with a reassuring smile. "Right this way." he said and started to walk off, down a hallway. I looked at Aahliya and she looked as shocked as me. Well, here goes nothing.

Aahliya's P.O.V.

He took Frankie and I into an office down the hall, and we went into a room full of files. Liam grabbed four files, then walked over to us. He gave Frankie and I both 2 folders. "These are the room numbers," He pointed to the little numbers next to the names.

"Okay, Lets go." Liam signaled us to walk with him. "Who did you get," I whispered to Frankie. "Um, Harry and Zayn" She opened up the files. "Harry has Anger Management and Zayn.." she paused. I looked over at her paper and it said he committed first degree murder. My eyes widened and I looked at Frankie. "You?" she closed her files quickly. "Louis and Niall" I opened Louis's file,"Louis is Homicidal and'" I paused and opened the Nialls file, "and Niall is Suicidal" I said quietly. We rounded the corner into the Men's Ward, he pushed open the door, holding it open for us. I nodded my head 'Thank you' and Frankie followed closely behind me.
