Another Way Out Of My Mind

Fairly Local

Matty sat in the chair, the cool metal making him shiver each time it touched his arms. He looked around the empty room and begun chewing on his lip. He was alone and officially had been a day since he'd had any type of medication. He hadn't slept and was close to tears when he heard the door open. He jumped slightly and swallowed hard. We're here, Matthew. You won't get away this time. Matty shut his eyes and curled up, whimpering as the blonde and two other men had entered the room.

Dallas pauses as she looks over at Matty, she frowns and then looks down. She bumps into Jorel and then quickly takes a seat. George sits to her left and Jorel to her right. Dallas looked over at the panicking man before she looked back at George.

"Why are we here?" She whispers softly.

"Because I fucking said we had to be. Why'd you bring Jorel?" George growls.

"I thought it could help him too. The man's thighs and arms look like someone was trying to slice cheese." Dallas mumbles.

Jorel glances at her instantly and fidgets some before he shakes his head.

"How do you know what his thighs look like?" George narrows his eyes slightly.

Dallas goes to speak up, but a blonde male in a leather jacket walks in, followed by a scrawny male. The two looking nearly opposite of each other. The one in the jacket sat beside the curly haired man and the other found his way to the seat the furthest away.

Dallas clears her throat then a brunette comes into the room, she is clearly speaking another language as she yelled at the male that followed her in. She paused and looked around the room before she looked at Dylan.

"No." Cecily shook her head.

"Sit. It's just once." Dylan laughs and leads her to the seat that was one seat apart from Matty's.

Cecily hisses and squirms, she was suddenly overwhelmed by the presence of all the others. She looked at Dylan and then folded her hands in her lap.

A few moments later a woman walked in with a grin, "Welcome to group therapy. I'm your therapist today, Ms. Lorene, later you'll meet your doctor and his assistant. For now, I want to go around and have everyone introduce themselves and tell me how your morning was and what you did and why you're here, Let's start with Matthew." The woman sits on the other side of him, "It's okay, Matty. We're all real here."

Matty picks his head up, he looks around the room before he glances over at the blonde. Then he slowly shakes his head, "My name is Matthew Busek... My morning has been hell because no one will let me have my medication... I just want my medicine."

The woman writes something down and frowns, before she points at the man beside Matty.

"My name's Danny Murillo. I'm here because my friend wouldn't come without me, So my morning has been alright, but I don't need to be here." Danny shrugs a slight shoulder.

"I'm Jordan Terrell. I spent my morning trying to avoid coming here and being surrounded by strangers. Danny offered to help me, That's why I'm here." Jordan mumbles.

The doctor writes down a few more things.

"I'm George Ragan. I'm here because if I didn't bring my bitchy sister, She was going to kill me in my sleep. My morning sucked a lot because I'm here." George shakes his head.

"I'm Dallas Ragan. My morning consisted of almost dying... I'm here because my brother thinks I'm insane." Dallas looks down.

"Jorel Decker. I wish I had died this morning, which is partially why I'm here. I figured if I wanted to die, I'd just come here and bore myself to death." Jorel shrugs a shoulder.
