The Johnson's Institution

Chapter 3

Atlas POV

After Storms outburst I carried him up to his bedroom and tucked him in his bed making sure he was in a comfortable position before exiting his room and finding my brother to have a conversation. 

I was walking around before I heard talking in the living room, once I entered everyone turned their attention towards me. 

"What are you guys talk about?" I ask as I sit next to Josh on the couch. 

"The new kid Storm, he seems so broken and angry all the time. It's as if he's had no one to care for him his entire life and he's become closed off, we need to show him affection, love and care otherwise he will become out of hand" Lorenzo says as he cuddles up next to Riley.

We all just stare at him shocked for a second because Lorenzo never talks this much and he never cares for any of the new boys that come to the institute.

Rowan breaks the silence by saying "Lorenzo is right, we need to show him that we care for him and show him what it's like to feel wanted and loved."

We all head into different directions as we finish the conversation after setting a plan into place about showing Storm he is welcomed here. As everyone has left I turn to my brother and ask 

"We need to go to my office and have a good look inside Storms information, we need to look at ways to help him"

Storms POV

Here I am laying on the cold hard concrete floor behind the school, it's been another one of them days were my bipolar had to act up in front of the schools bullies. I decided it was in my best interests to insult them in front of the whole school... Lets just say it wasn't my greatest idea because now I'm laying on the ground with broken rubs and a bruised face.

I really need to learn to shut my mouth at times like that but it's almost as if I can't stop myself from saying it. All my life I've had people look down on me because I'm either too happy or too angry and end up hurting the people around me. All the time the phrases I hear are

'Your a worthless piece of shit you shouldn't have been born'

'Your parents don't love you'

'Your a failed abortion'

'Kill yourself and put us out of our misery' 

and the list continues on but they are the ones I heard daily from the kids at school. Only one kid in school doesn't say anything like that to me and that's my one and only friend Joseph. I still don't understand why he hangs around with me but it also seems as though the kids at school pick on him too so were a great pair.

I woke up with a jolt and felt tears streaming from my face. That was the day my life changed forever the last ever day I saw my best friend alive.

My mood had changed drastically after having memories about Joseph, he was the only person to ever show me how to care and love. I would say that before his last breath we were becoming much more than friends, but his time came to an end before we could see if it went anywhere.

My thoughts are consuming me and are getting too much, I need my outlet which is either cutting, smoking or drinking, healthy I know right. Today I chose option one, I went over to my suitcase and grabbed my tin filled with blades and dragged it across my wrists over and over again until I felt enough pain to stop. I still had thoughts swarming my mind so I grabbed the bottle of vodka from my suitcase and began drinking it quickly.

As I the room began swaying I hear a knock on the door, so I walked over to it swaying with each step bottle of vodka in one hand the other reaching for the door handle. As I swung it open all I saw was what I could make out as Rowan and Atlas.

"Hey guys welcome to the depression party" I slurred

"WHAT THE FUCK STORM! YOU CAN'T BE GETTING DRUNK AT 3PM THIS ISN'T RIGHT!" Atlas screamed in my face.

"I'm sorry alright, I didn't mean to my thoughts just got too much and I needed a break from them" I answered lowering my gaze to the floor.

"We need to have a good conversation Storm can we please come inside" Rowan asked obviously the level-headed sibling. 

"Sure but don't expect any answers"
