One Maniac at a Time

Another Turning Point

Pete's POV

Tara has been talking to PTV a lot lately, don't get me wrong I have nothing against the guys, it's just I am not that familiar with them and don't trust them that much.  She adores Mike, and he likes weed like I love pizza.  I just don't have a connection with them, if she were hanging out with Brendon it would be a different story, but her birthday is in a week and I want her to have a good time.  

"Hey Dad." She said as she entered the living room.

"Hey, how's that education coming?" I asked.

"I'm working on it." She replied.

"Alright," I said getting up and checking my e-mail.  I saw something odd.  It was from Dr. Hills.  

Mr. Wentz,

I know you are very against it, but I seriously am recommending Tara be put in a Psych ward, just a little bit to be monitored. I fear something has come up, something she won't tell me.  I do not want to do anything without consulting you, of course since legal matters and such, but I truely worries me.  I would love to meet with you and discuss this further.  I cannot disclose anything from my sessions with her unless I see it absolutely necessary  which I do not at this time, but once more I would appreciate if you could contact me, I have a slot open of Thursday at 10:15 am, please let me know if that will work for you.

Dr.  Hills

I was in shock a bit, Tara hadn't really seemed all that different, maybe things were worse than I had thought.  I replied that I would meet her.  I decided to have a date night with Meagan.

"Tar!" I called.

"Yeah?" She said walking downstairs with a book bag over her shoulder.

"Where are you going?" I asked.

"Neal, Zeke, Vi and I are all gonna work on this assignment and have dinner." She explained.

"Okay, have fun, let me know if you need to be picked up." I told her.

"Okay, thanks dad!" She said running out happily.  I sighed and smiled.

Tara's POV

I got to Max's house, so I hadn't told Dad everything, but still who cared.  Vi and Kyle were sitting on the couch.

"Hey babe!" I said, kissing her lips lightly, she grabbed my head and kissed harder.  I smiled kissing back.

"Now, Ladies, I would love to watch the live show, but not on my couch sadly." Max said entering the room.

"Sorry." I blushed, giggling.  

"Just waiting for Zeke and Neal." Max said stretching out.

"Any plans for tonight?" I asked.

"Not really, I mean just hang, pierce people, dye hair, skate, the usual." Kyle said.

"Weed?" Asked Max.

"You know us too well." Violet said. I smiled.

"Someone's birthday is coming up!" Zeke yelled bursting through the door.  I rolled my eyes.

"Yeah so?" I asked.

"Come on, you've got to be a little excited." Kyle said.

"Okay, maybe a little." I said.

"That's the spirit!" Neal yelled he had come in with Zeke.

"Let's go have fun." I said.  Kyle turned on Crushcrushcrush by Paramore.  I grinned dancing around with Violet like idiots, I heard a snap and heard a flash.
