~Andy's POV~

I was very confused with every and all of the situations around me.

Ashley seemed to be going mad and suddenly he was alright in a sense, again.

Jinxx sometimes talks, he seemed happy yesterday.

Jake was just... Jake. I think I need to talk to him more to see what's going on; see if I can't get him to open up.

But back to Jinxx...

He looked great with that small smile on his pretty pink lips, eyes shining. I wonder how long it'd been since the last time he was like this- whatever it must have been must have been great though.

Currently, Jinxx and I were the only two in room, Jake was at therapy and Ashley had gone somewhere. And then of course CC wasn't currently rooming with us...

Jinxx was reading, I was just... staring blankly at the wall. There wasn't much at all to do here, nothing of interest anyways. You could read, watch the crappy TV, or listen to music. That was all.

I could have done more if my parents had allowed me my phone and laptop instead of just the MP3 player that was like 10 years old- that was kind of sucky I must admit.

But- I've got to deal, I can't do much about it so I best quit whining in my head.

Maybe I could entertain myself by talking to Jinxx, I mean- I hope I can anyways.

"Hey- Jinxx?" I asked, coughing a little after speaking.

"Hmm?" He murmured, looking up from his book and turning his head to look at me.

"I erm..." I trailed off, my voice rumbling in my chest. I realised that I have nothing to talk about to him, or rather; I don't know WHAT to talk about with him.

But then there's always the question of whether he actually wants to make conversation with me, which I highly doubt. Though, we both suffer from eating disorders- but then again that's a touchy subject, he won't want to talk about that either.

"Fuck." Was all that came out my mouth a moment later, causing a confused expression to appear on Jinxx's face.

"Fuck?" He questioned softly, tilting his head ever so slightly.

"I wanted to talk, but I... I er, don't know what to talk about..." I mumbled, embarrassed as I rubbed the back of my neck, I could feel my face flushing red.

Jinxx let out a small laugh and I looked at him properly, he was smiling and looked amused, at me. Great, now I look dumb in front of my crush. Wait- crush?

"Well, have you read this book?" Jinxx asked, his voice staying quiet and soft. He held it up, "It's called Will Grayson, Will Grayson..."

"I, y-no, sorry. I don't read much," I admitted with a small smile, "But you sure seem to like reading, what's your favourite book?" I asked him.

"My favourite book would have to be... Paper Towns." Jinxx smiled at me, "It was really interesting, but I won't spoil it for you, don't worry."

I laughed a little, "Thanks- maybe I will read it someday if you think it's good." I nodded slightly with a small smile.

"Good- I hope you do. Who... uh, who's your favourite band?" Jinxx asked.

"My favourite band? KISS or Motley, or Alkaline Trio. I love all of them, I dunno if I could pick just one... what about you?"

"Well, I like Metallica quite a bit, so, I'll go with them. But I really love Classical Music. I've been trained professionally on the Violin, and I can play it pretty well, as well as piano and guitar." Jinxx said happily, his face lighting up at the mention of his favourite genre.
