"Thomas." She breathed. She was overly joyed to see him. It's been forever, or at least that's what it felt like.
"Bella. You're okay?" He asked, his Irish accent had been something Bella had missed. Being away from Thomas -or vice versa- was a horrible feeling. Thomas was always there for her, and Bella liked having that bestfriend figure, even if her bestfriend wasn't alive.
"Get me out of here. Please." Bella begged. She hated being in this psych ward. It wasn't helping her, not that she needed help. There was nothing wrong with her.
"You need to dream, Bell." Thomas whispered, taking a seat on the window sill. Bella's brows contorted into a confused expression.
"Dream? Why?" She asked. Did he know about the boy in Bella's dream? Should she tell him? Of course she should, why would you keep something like that from your bestfriend.
"Because that's where your escape is. That's where you can be whoever, or whatever you want." Thomas smiled, nodding.
Bella knew that dreaming would be the only way she could see him again. And in a weird way, it healed her.
"I want to tell you about him." Bella started. Thomas cocked his head to the side and squinted.
"The boy in my dreams. He's.. Perfect. He makes me feel, alive. Like I'm not supposed to be in here. He heals me, Tom.. I feel safe when I'm with him." Bella finished, getting everything out and she knew Thomas wouldn't judge her.
"Then find him." He said, then vanished.
Bella smiled, happy that she finally got to see Thomas. She was unsure if he forgot about her. It scared her to think that her only friend had forgotten her.

"So, Bella. Tell me about Thomas. Other than what I already knew." Calvin asked. Bella stiffened. Nobody else knew anything about Thomas other than the fact that he was Bella's friend. But she had to tell the doctor about that other thing..
"Um. He's Irish." Bella said, hoping that would satisfy Dr. Calvin's needs. The Doctor wrote something down on her pad and looked up, waiting for her to continue
"He's got dark hair, that comes just below his eyebrows. Blue eyes." Bella said.
"How did he die?" Calvin asked. Bella really didn't want to talk about it. It wasn't her place to reveal such secrets about her friend. If she wanted to know so bad, why didn't she just ask Thomas herself.
"I don't think I can tell you that." Bella said, shaking her head. The doctor sighed and looked at Bella.
"If you want me to help you, you have to tell me the things I need to know." She said, crossing her legs. Bella sighed, knowing she had been defeated.
"He died in the womb. He was supposed to be a twin, but he didn't make it, but his brother did." Bella explained. She hoped Thomas wouldn't be mad at her for telling.
"And you know this how?" Dr. Calvin asked. Bella rolled her eyes.
"He's my bestfriend. I know everything about him." Bella snapped.
"What's his brother's name then?" She asked, going deeper into the subject Bella wanted to avoid.
"He doesn't like to talk about it. All I know is that he's okay." Bella replied.
Doctor Calvin dropped the situiation, seeing as it was making Bella uncomfortable.

"Thomas.." Bella trailed off. He made a 'hmm' indecating her to go on.
"What's your brother like?" She asked. It was a subject the two barely encountered. Bella respected that Thomas didn't want to talk about it. But Bella wanted to know. Thomas sighed and got comfortable in the chair he occupied.
"Um.. He's great." Thomas said.
"You know what I mean Tom." She said, encouraging him to continue.
"He's great, honestly. He's making the most out of his live and I admire him for that." Thomas revealed.
"Does he look like you?" Bella asked.
"Only a bit. He's got his hair blonde, but we have the same eyes." Bella wanted to know more about these hidden secrets.
"Do you ever wish you were alive? To be with him?" Bella asked, digging a bit deeper. Thomas shook his head.
"No. Because then he wouldn't be living his life the way he should. He wouldn't be living his dream." He explained.
Thomas and Bella continued to talk about his living brother. Bella loved how much Thomas could talk about one person. He seemed to love his brother more than Bella had thought.
"I never got his name." Bella realized.
"I think it's a bit weird. But it fits him. Kind of like a new glove you know?" Thomas rambled.
"Okay, but what is itttt?" She begged. She already knew basically everything about this boy, except his name.
"It's Niall."
