A/n I will be writing a lot in the next week cos I'm going away for a week so I'm making up for it by updating loads this week if I can

Alex's p. O. V

I woke up the next morning to the sound of crying.

I quietly got up and walked over to the curtain it came from.

I pulled it aside to see a girl around 11 years old laid in bed crying and clutching a teddy.

"Are you okay? " I asked softly.

"No I miss my mummy" she said through sobs.

"I miss mine to" I sighed comeing and sitting on her bed.

"Do you want to talk about it? " I asked.

"Okay." She said wiping her eyes and sitting up.

" Well my auntie put me here cos I got depressed when my mummy died five years ago. And also my uncle hit me and every one thought I was crazy and so I'm here until I'm better"
"How long have you been here? " I asked.

" six months how about you? " she said.

" I just got here yesterday"

"Why are you missing your mummy? "

"My mummy died when I was 10 as did the rest of my family but I got adopted last year and I wouldn't change it at all"

Suddenly she was hugging me.
"Sorry about your mummy"

" My names jemma "

"Mines Alex, it's funny I had a sister called jemma but she never got out of the fire" I said almost whispering the last part.

"I had a sister called Alex but she got taken away when the fire happened, I'm sad cos my brother and sister died also "

"Jemma can I ask you something? "

"Sure"
"How did the fire start? "
" mummy left the oven on and I ran upstairs to see my sissy and tell her"

"Matron is coming and she will kill you if you're in he same bed" Emily said sticking her head round the curtain.

"Okay" I said to her then turned to jemma. " let's continue this conversation later"

I hoped of her bed and in to my own just as matron walked in with everyone's meds.

I took mine and then got dressed as I had therapy straight away.

I wandered down the corridor aimlessly trying to find the right place.

" for fucks sake" I said leaning agains a wall.

" it's the door down the end" a voice called.

I turned to see Jordan. And I looked a mess.

He walked over and smiled at me.
"Nice jumper" he said looking at my BMTH jumper.

"T-thanks" I said.

"I'll be off then you don't want to miss therapy"

And with that he walked in to a room that I guess was the boy's room.

I trudged down the corridor and knocked on the door.

"Come in" a voice called.

I walked in to see a room the resembled a nursery.

" wow great therapy room" I said sarcastically.

"Take a seat miss Howell. " the man said.
I sat on a sofa opposite him.

"First thing my name is james"

"Sup"

" is there anything you want to say or questions before we begin? "

"Only one, when will I get out of here? "

"A month minimum"

I groand.

"Wow so I'm being locked up for shit I didn't fucking do that is fucked up" I yelled at him.

"Dcalm down and I will tell you why you are here." He said Cooley

"Fine go ahead" I said smiling sarcastically.

" you're here because you have server depression and anxiety and have attempted suicide to many times for someone your age" he said

" Oh fuck you" I said running out. I got out and I sunk to the floor crying.
" I'm fucking crazy I wish I could fucking die" I sobbed.

I tensed as I was pulled in to a hug.
I looked up to see Jordan.
"Dont cry it will get better, come on I will take you back to your room" he said standing me up.

I looked at him.

"Why do you even care for me? " I asked.

" you're the first person to come here that doesn't hate my guts." He admitted.

" Well then that's a first" I said laughing.

We started to walk then I stoped.

"How come we can pretty much go anywhere we want? " I asked.

"Cos we aren't completely crazy so we are aloud out to help us feel normal"
"Oh okay".

Soon we were both sat on my bed listening to my chemical romance and talking.

" the therapy here is shit" I said dramatically flopping on to my back.

"It will get worse if you keep swearing missy" he scolded.

"Oh sorry sir" I said sitting up and pushing him.
" I better leave before I get in to trouble" he said standing up.

" okay see you tomorrow" I smiled.

"Wait give me your number I can text you " he said pulling out his phone.

"Okay it's ***********"

"Kay text you when I get back to my room" he said kissing my cheak and walking off.

I sat blushing.

" awww someone's in love" a small voice called.

I looked to see jemma sat up in bed

"I thought you were asleep"

" I was but I woke up to see you and him" she said giggling.

" You are the most annoying ten year old I know " I said coming over to her.

I picked her up and ran around the room.

" no stop " she giggled.

" never"

"My sissy did this to me when I was small" she giggled.

" really? I used to do this to my sister" I said putting her down.

" jemma what was your sisters last name"

" genkins" she said.

" that's my old last name" i said tearing up.

" I thought you died in the fire"

" no a mad got me out I saw you get taken away in a car" she said crying.

"Shhh calm down" I said pulling her In to a hug.

"Who do you live with"
" no one I'm in a children's home" she said casually.

"If my new dad's let me do you want to live with us when you get out? " I asked.

"Yes and did you say dad's? I thought it had to be mummy and daddy" she said.

" no it can be two daddy's or two mummys"
" but as friends? "

" no men can love men like they love won a and woman can love woman like they love men"

" okay"

That night I fell asleep with my baby sister in my arms.
