The voice that asked the question stepped forward.

Jasper.

"What are you doing here, Henry?" Jasper shouted as he came closer.

"I've come to see Charlotte," I responded. It felt weird to say that.

"Since when did you care about her?" Jasper shot back.

He had gained so much confidence lately. Maybe because he had been spending too much time with my little sister.

"Are you seriously asking me that? Don't act like I'm the only one who abandoned her. You left her for your stupid bucketeer group," I scoffed, moving my hands.

Just then, he snapped.

His knuckles met my face.

My legs kicked his unmentionables.

We had never fought before.

"Guys, stop," Charlotte whispered with her raspy voice.

We both turned to face her.

I had completely forgotten she was even in the room.

"Char, you're okay," Jasper smiled.

"You know, you're unbelievable. Only when I get hurt is when you start to care for me. Get out," she half-cried.

"Yeah, get out," I repeated after her.

"No, Henry, you can shut the fuck up and follow him. You caused me the most pain. Just get out no—" Charlotte fully shouted before she was interrupted.

"Ms. Bolton, may I ask you to... excuse me, but no one is allowed to visit the patient yet," a nurse announced.

"Sorry, we were just leaving," Jasper said, sounding as sweet as he could.

As we left, Charlotte's eyes followed us.

The nurse guided us back to the main waiting room.

It was really awkward.

She handed us back to our parents like we were a bunch of hooligans.

"These two young men were in a patient's room," the nurse said proudly, as if she had just caught criminals.

She froze when she noticed two policemen approaching.

They marched over to me and said,

"In accordance with the Swellview Penal Code section 635, we have the right to convict Henry Jace Hart of cyberbullying. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say or do can and will be held against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be provided for you."

And with that, they took me away.

Since when was this a law? (This is actually a law in many countries.)

Bianca didn't even look me in the eye.

It even looked like she was smiling.

They loaded me into the back of the police car.

People stared at me closely and coldly, as if I had truly done something wrong.

Bianca's POV

I knew Swellview had a law on cyberbullying.

I hope Dad gains faith in me.

By putting Henry in jail, I hurt Charlotte.

Hopefully Nurse Cohort will be gone soon.

To be honest, she's not even that hot.

However, I'm worried that the brainwashing isn't permanent.

Forget it. Like Charlotte would ever talk to Henry after what he made her do.

Henry's POV

It's cold.

I've been in jail cells before, but this one is different.

This time, I'm not with my family or friends.

I'm in a secluded cell where nobody can hear you scream or cry.

I tried to tell the guard that I had a headache.

He didn't care.

A voice kept playing in my head, over and over again.

"I'd like to hear the question."

"Too bad I don't know the atomic number for idiot boys."

"Am I gonna have to slap a boy?"

"And what information were you trying to find out, what her mouth tasted like?"

"We kiss a lot."

"It's not called L.I.M.P."

Charlotte.

Why her voice?

"Henry, if you want me to help you pass music, learn this song. Mr. Sikowitz will love it. Wow, these lyrics kind of relate to you. Especially the line, 'and the worst part is there's no one else to blame.' Because anything that goes wrong is your fault. Hen, are you even listening to me?"

I literally couldn't take it anymore.

In front of me were several metal bars.

I forced my forehead forward and banged it.

Memories.

They flooded my brain like a leak.

I was friends with the nerd.

In fact, she was my best friend.

A vision played in my mind.

I saw myself in a dark room.

Wires led from my head to a machine.

I screamed and screamed.

I was brainwashed.

But by who?
