asylum

12.

Just a warning there is some strong language used in this chapter.

------------

All I heard from Tao was my two best friends were fighting and I honestly was hoping it was physically.

I ran until I reached the fighting for now it was just them yelling at each other.

"Why were you snooping around my file?" Bonnie had anger in her eyes.

Everly crossed her arms around her chest, "Because I work at the front office and I could look through them if I wanted to."

"So you've seen why the hell we are all here?" Bonnie started now to raise her voice.

Everly realized what she said, and was silent. You could literally hear a pen drop.

I took a step toward the two of them knowing this was going to end in physically fighting, "Guys. I don't think this is necessary."

Bonnie jerked her head in my direction, "Do you know what the hell this means Lora? She knows our personal business. She has seen our files and knows what the hell our weaknesses are and none of us have our fucking privacy anymore."

"I'm sorry." Everly croaked.

"Sorry? Did you just apologize for being a nosey ass bitch?" Bonnie was now taking this a little too far.

I stepped back knowing this was about to get dirty.

"I'm sorry for being nosey." Everly apologized again.

"You know what the hell I've been through. You know I've lost both my parents and the one person that was dear to me! And you think I am going to let you take advantage of that? What the hell is your past about huh? Tell me please since you think it is so fucking fantastic that you know how the hell to run over us. You know that the mention of my brother brings me to tears, but the real question is are you happy about that?"

There was no respone.

"I'm going to ask you one more time. Are you happy about it?"

Still silence.

"You bitch." Bonnie spat and ran over to Everly and jumped on her.

They both fell to the floor but it didn't phase Bonnie because she started to bang everly's head into the tile floor.

I just watched. I couldn't move. My best friends were beating the shit out of each other.

They flipped over so Everly was now on top of Bonnie and was now throwing her share of the pain by punching Bon square in the nose, which to that hit it was now bleeding.

Everyone started to gather around the two tumbling fighting idiots who fought over something stupid.

Now that you put Bon's words to your mind. You do realize it is an invasion of privacy but how did this all start.

I ran over to Tao who was standing in the crowd. I pulled him by the shirt.

"How in the hell did this start?"

Tao stuttered, "I-I don't know. Everly just said if it wasn't for your brother dying you wouldn't be here and then they starting shouting at each other." he shook his head.

The police officers pushed by everyone and pulled Bonnie and Everly apart.

They both looked like they have been through hell and back but Everly look like she had the literal shit beaten out of her.

Bonnie was only left with a few bruises and a black eye.

Unfortunately, Everly was left with not only bruises and a broken nose but a broken arm as well.

They took the two of them away from the scence and it left us all in shock but people still continued to talk about it.

Diego appeared at my side, "I heard about it but seriously you could have woke me up."

I chuckled to myself, "You were asleep? They were basically screaming bloody murder."

"It's not funny. I'm a heavy sleeper." he crossed his arms over his chest like a five year old would.

"Oh stop being a baby." I slightly pushed his shoulder.

"I am not a baby." He whined.

"Your acting like my brother." I froze realizing what I said. It brought back the moment I wouldn't share my ice cream with my brother and he did his five year old baby pout.

"Grandpa, can you get me a bowl of ice cream please?" I begged grandpa.

"Strawberry or cookies and cream?" He smiled at me.

"Cookies and cream!" I jumped up from my place on the couch going to the kitchen to wait on my ice cream.

He finally finished putting together my bowl and I walked back to the couch to continue my episode of Pound Puppies.

I heard footsteps down the stairs and a figure plopped beside me on the couch.

"Sis you should totally share." My big brother smirked.

I giggled, "How about no?"

He huffed and put his arms across his chest and stuck his bottom lip out and it gave the illusion of big lips.

"Why are you pouting?" I looked at him.

"Because I didn't get my bite of ice cream."

I finally gave in and gave him a spoonful.

I didn't realize I had a tear rolling down my cheek until Diego wiped it off.

"Sorry. I didn't mean to bring that up." I said recollecting myself.

He smiled, "No you're perfectly fine princess."

I looked up at him with a goofy smile, "You did not just go there."

"But I did just go there." He laughed.

Tao eventually came up to us, "Stop it with the lovely dovey stuff or I am going to be sick."

------

Everly and Bonnie were put back in their rooms, I decided I would visit Bon because I am second guessing myself on trusting Everly since she pretty much knows every living body in this horrific place and it is terrifying to think how much she could kill everyone emotionally just by a mention of why the hell they are here.

I saw the door was cracked.

I opened it and came to see Bon lying on my bed guessing she couldn't climb she just laid on mine.

She groaned knowing someone had intteruped her sleep.

I frowned to myself closing the door again until Bonnie interrupted.

"It's fine. I just wanted to rest."

I sighed opening the door again, "I just wanted to check on you."

Bonnie pulled back the sheet to reveal her beaten up face.

"Everly got a few more licks in before we went back to our rooms."

I gasped when I got closer.

She had a broken nose and a bleeding busted lip.

"I know. It's bad don't make me feel bad Lora."

"Sorry."

She shook her head and sunk back into my bed.

Taking that as my cue to go to sleep myself; I climbed the top bunk and plopped down and let the darkness engulf me.
