8:50 AM.

Troy squeezed Will's shoulder and held his free hand out. Will gulped and started shaking a little.
"give me the phone Will" Tray said firmly.
"Who was that?"  Joyce asked from the other line.
Will gave him the phone with a shaky hand. Troy took the phone "Hey, good morning Ms. Byers!"
"Oh. Hey Troy. How are you?"
"I'm good. How are you?
"Also good. We missed you so much, guys. Why won't you visit us one day?"
"Oh, I would love to. But I've been busy lately. We'll try to visit you more" Troy talked to Joyce not letting go of Will. Will's trying his best not to make any noise.

"Okay. Bye, Troy. Have a nice day"
"you too Ms.Byers" Troy smiled and hung up the phone. Then he stood up from the bed finally letting go of Will. Will groaned in pain holding his shoulder.
Troy kneeled in front of him and didn't say anything.

.........

*slap*

"AHHHH" Will screamed holding his cheek.
"I FUCKING TOLD YOU NOT TO TALK WITH ANYONE WITHOUT MY PERMISSION! ESPECIALLY WITH YOUR FAMILY!"
"I didn't tell her anything!"
"I DON'T FUCKING CARE!" Troy yelled into his face.
"Now get up! GET UP" he grabbed his arm.
"Where are we going?" Will stood up. Scared of what Troy's gonna do.

"Shut up! I'm done talking with you!"
Troy walked out of the room pulling Will by his arm.

*ring ring*

The doorbell rang but Troy didn't stop, he continued walking.
"Troy let me go!! It's hurting!" Will tried to escape his arm from Troy's grip but it was useless. They walked through 3 doors and now Will realized. They are going to the white door. All the doors in the house are black, only this one is white. Will's heart started beating fast from fear.
"No no no no no! Please no!"
"I told you to be like I want! It's your fault!"
"No, please don't. I didn't tell her anything, I swear! We were just talking"
Troy didn't stop. It was like he couldn't hear Will. Troy wanted to stop and let him go, but something inside him was holding him. It was telling him if he let go of Will, he'd lose control. But he doesn't want to lose control. He can't. He can't lose Will. Will's his everything. This is the only way to keep Will here.

They reached the room and Troy opened the door. Will deeply inhaled she he entered the room. The room is empty, there is only a white bed in the middle. The color of the room is all white, nothing else, no windows. Will's been here so many times, and he knows what it's like to stay here for a month.
Troy threw Will on the floor and stood in front of him. The door was slightly open.

"Why would you do that!? Why can't we just be a normal couple?!" Troy was shaking a little and breathing heavily. Will didn't say anything.
"Man, I'm looking for you everywhere!" James walks into the room with Alisa behind him. Troy didn't look at them. James looked at Alisa and mouthed her 'you can go'. Alisa nodded and walked out of the room closing the door behind her.

Troy kneeled in front of him and took his right hand.
"Did you dial the number with these fingers?" he took his three fingers into his hand and squeezed them. Will stayed quiet. He had no idea what Troy was about to do. Then Troy grabbed his index finger and squeezed his finger tightly. Tears started forming in Will's eyes from fear. He wanted to pull away his hand and run but he couldn't. All he can do is to cry. He hopes tha-
"AHHHHH" Will's thoughts cut off when Troy broke his index finger. Will scream in pain.
"Troy! Are you fucking crazy?" James grabbed his shoulder trying to stop him.
Troy pushed his hand "Hands off!"
Then he grabbed Will's middle finger, ignoring his crying. He held it tight and broke it not thinking for a second.
