Arny and Danny Imagines

Safe

Pretty colors...

"We can only be out for 2 hours..."

Sun feels nice...

"Group therapy starts at 4 o'clock..."

Wanna fly...

"Quiet." You say softly. The nurse stops his nervous rambling as you both continue walking along the path in silence. You'd only been able to be out of the hospital a few times. Privileges were scarcely given to you anymore since they still haven't been able to figure out what's wrong.

You smiled as you stopped for a moment, bending down to pick a dandelion before continuing. You held it up as the wind began to blow, watching the seeds fly away. You didn't think there was anything wrong. Then again, you tried not to think of anything anymore.

A flash of pink, too high up to be a shirt caught your attention as you turned to see two men walking in the opposite direction. One of the men had his hair colored pink. You rushed towards them, ignoring your nurse screaming your name as he ran after you.

"Pretty hair!" You yelled as you jumped in front of them, startling them both and causing them to stop.

Fluffy...so pretty...pink

You reached up, brushing your fingers through his hair and sighing with a smile at the silky texture. The man quickly took a step back, his face twisted into one of shock.

"Hey! What are-"

"There you are! You can't keep doing that! They're..." Everyone's voices faded as you stared into the man's brown eyes. He quickly turned away, talking to the nurse that was now at your side. Your gaze traveled down the man's arms, stopping at his wrists.

"Bracelets...drawings..." You murmured to yourself as you reached out to trace the outline of them.

Dark...still pretty...only drawings...safe...

You smiled to yourself as the men conversed, giggling as a blue butterfly landed on the man's hair for a split second before flying away.

Cotton candy...this man is sweet...and safe...

You felt the nurse go to grab your hand and jerked it away.

"No touch." You said curtly, looking at the man for help. He moved his hand very slowly up to your face, giving you a smile.

"Don't worry, I'll visit you."

Safe...

You reached out to touch his face as well, smiling and stroking his cheek before moving your hand up to his hair.

"Color...so pretty...promise?" You whispered before holding out your pinky. He glanced over to the other man before linking his pinky with yours.

"Ahh...you know...she'll rememb-"

"I know." The man said confidently. You touched his cheek again.

"Safe." You said to yourself one final time before turning to walk back towards the hospital, missing the look of surprise that crossed his face.

~~

As you rocked back and forth, tears streaming down your cheeks, you covered your ears hoping to block out the screaming voices from the other patients.

Colors...pretty colors...flying...flying far away...safe...safe...not here...only safe...

A knock on your door caused you to jump as you turned to see a nurse poking her head in the door.

"You have a new visitor, he said you met in the park yesterday?" She said with a glare. You jumped up.

"Drawings!" Was all you shouted before rushing out of your room, making your way to the visitors room. As you burst through the doorway, you saw the man sitting on the couch, staring out the window with a thoughtful expression on his face. He quickly looked over when you came through the doorway, giving you a wide smile.
