I hold her in my arms not wanting to let her go for a second, she looks so small now, shes really underweight and is alot more timid and wants to hide, her eyes have massive bags underneath them showing her lack of sleeo and they don't hold there usual spark that I worked so hard to bring out, her chocolate brown hair has been traided for sandy blond waves that fall down her back, she has bandages running up and down her arms and legs, shes almost unrecenisable and shes defenatly not the same Addison.
Then I notice that all shes wearing is a white towl wraped around her fragile fram.

"Were are your cloths" I ask her.

She stays quiet and takes a little step away but still holding my hand.

"They were wet so she dicided just to wear the towl" Robby says from the bathroom door.

I pull of the hood I was wearing and slip it over her head pulling it over her body, the towl slips off her and she pulls her hands into the sleeves.

"There we go" I say kissing her head.

She goes and sits on the bed curling into a ball ontop of the blankets making her look smaller then she already is.

"Addy are you ok" I ask kneeling in fron of the bed near her face.

"Yes" she says with no emotion.

"What happened to you Addy" I ask "who did this to you".

"No" she says.

"Addy I just want to help" I plead.

"No" she yells "no, no, no, no" she starts to chants.

I see what Robby was talking about now, shes not acting normally, something bad happened to her and shes trying to hide it.

"Shh, Ad its ok" Robby says rubbing her shoulder.

"I'm sorry Addy, you don't have to tell me if your not ready" I tell her.

She starts to calm down a bit but stays in her little ball.
I sit next to her like this in the silence for half an hour before a nurse walks in with her lunch, she smiles pushing the tray infront of Addison.

"Here you go sweety" she says kindly before leaving.

I lift the lid of to reveal her lunch, a turkey sandwhich with apple juice, a banana and a cup of jello.
Addison doesn't look intrested in any of it so she just sits there and stares.

"Hey Nick, I'm going to go home" Robby says from his chair "I'll come back later and see hows shes doing".

I nod as he gets up and walks up to Addison "I'll be back later Ad" he says.

He leaves the room leaving just me and Addison, I look back at her food and tare the lid of the jello and grab a spoonfull and put if to Addisons mouth.

"Open up" I say but she just stares at the spoon "you have to eat baby".

She keeps looking at the spoon but finally opens her mouth allowing me to feed her, eventually I get her to eat half her lunch before Dr Andrews sticks his head in the door.

"The police are here now to ask you some questions" he tells us.

Addison stiffens and I know this won't end well.
