Pull the trigger and send me home

Alan Ashby

After the guards did their third room check and locked the doors, I tried to go to sleep but I couldn't seem to stop thinking about Lynn. They probably just left her there alone in her room after all that happened. She could do something, she's smart, and I'm worried that she will.

Having worked here for 6 years before, I knew all the tricks and ways around this place. I used to sneak into her room after hours on bad nights and stay with her until she fell asleep. I miss those days. Now I'm stuck here chained to my bed and locked away probably for a while in a shitty mental ward.

When Lynn got here first, they thought she was a dangerous patient, so they used to strap her down at night, just like I am now. So I would go in and pick the locks on her cuffs because she wasn't going to get better by being caged in like some circus freak.

I have to go see her. I can't leave her alone right now, not after what happened.

I found the lock on the edge of the leather cuff holding me down and twisted it the way I knew would unlock it. I did the same on my left arm and my ankles until I was free. I stayed there're silently for a minute making sure no one was in the hallway and then went over to the door wedging my fingernail in the electronic key slot, hearing the door click open. I made my way slowly out into the dark hallway down to Lynn's room. The door opened easily from the outside and I looked in to see her tied down, but still just like I thought she would be. I smiled to myself when I noticed she was wearing my old shirt I gave her.

I could see her twisting her wrist back and forth along the edge of the lock trying to draw blood until she noticed my presence. He head snapped in my direction and the look of fear washed over her face. "What are you doing here? Stay away from me" she panicked. "no, Lynn it's okay I just came to check on you" I tried not to scare her as I stood over her bed and unlocked the cuffs.

As soon as they where off she's sprung off the bed and ran into the corner trying to get as far away from me as possible. "This isn't real, you're not here. Its all a dream, you're at home asleep with you're cats now Alan, you still work here" she muttered to herself. "I'm sorry, but it's real, I'm here" I said sympathetically. I can't imagine how hard this must be on her, everyone she trusts screws her over. "I'm still the same person, I won't hurt you, you're my light Lyndsey. The voices. Go away when I'm around you" I assured her. "How do I know?" She said with tears starting to fall down her face, "you're a murderer Alan" my stomach dropped, why would she think that? I didn't kill anyone. I was here because of self harm wasn't I?

"No I'm not" i denied sitting on the foot of her bed putting my head in my hands pulling at the roots of my ginger hair "couldn't have". She came over crawling onto the head of her bed sitting in front of me "then why are you here? that's what they told everyone, you where covered in blood" it's not true is it? "I thought I was here because I tried to k-kill myself. I blacked out, I c-can't remember anything after work that day" I stuttered with tears forming in my bloodshot eyes. She just sat there, silently staring at me. I looked up into her sad eyes now full of sympathy. "I'm a monster" I choked out. I must look pathetic, sitting I front of this girl, who probably thinks I'm a phsyco, crying my eyes out for no reason, with no clue why I'm here.

"It's okay" she soothed "I don't believe them, I just heard from Hayley. It's probably not true, she's a bitch anyways. Everyone just kind of assumed when you came in covered in blood and all" (a/n don't hate me I love Hayley, I use the first name that came to mind) she placed her small hand on my pyjama covered knee. "I'm such a fuck up" I whispered. "No you're not, you're simply lost" de reassured. I looked up at her smiling a bit. "come here" she gestured for me to lie down with her. I uneasily joined her lying on her bed draping my arm around her waist. "I'm tired" she yawned burying her face into my chest. "Me too" I replied resting my chin on her head. As I lay there listening to her quiet breathing I realized,

I think I'm falling for her.
