Kinda depressing, so... yeah. I'll make a happy one soon I think...

August x 19xx
Manny woke up, looking at the one small window, by the looks of it (of tossing and turning) he woke up earlier then usual. I have seen the 'teachers', as they like to call themselves, do things that he didn't know why. Paige draws violent things or emotional, sad paintings. (Otherwise known as vent art, but Manny doesn't know that...) Toney loves this extremely rusty and broken pocket watch, he is always holding it and Shrignold wanted to fix it up for him. But he refused and said it was the last thing, and like magic none of the the teachers talked about is again. I don't understand them acting this way towards each other, they were sad but it seems like they lost the ability to talk about it and cry... shrignold keeps everything about him hidden, well besides him having unconditional love for pink and love in general. He hadn't seen Colin do anything he didn't draw that much, and he had some interest in time, but no watch. Didn't love pink, showed some emotion of love, but there wasn't anything wrong with that. But Manny snapped out of his thoughts when he heard a small sigh.
"Gilbert, where are you?" He heard Colin and turned to the side to see Colin holding a globe, and tears in his eyes. Manny hasn't seen any teacher do anything like this, then when was about to glance. Manny closed his eyes so he wouldn't get in trouble from Colin. Manny peeked at what he was doing, Colin was touching the sun with his hands then a light tune was being hummed by Colin, and he sang a light tune that nearly lulled Manny back to sleep, but not in a good way.

Please don't come near me,

You know what I've done

And you can't know what I've seen...

I miss my family a Ton.

Stop where you stand

I'm contagious of sadness,

However I have no one to lend a hand

For I am overdosed with madness

Don't take a step without one more regret

If only you knew the dread that fills me.

If only gilbert knew that I wasn't dead...

Manny didn't know what to do, as he saw one of the teachers express this new emotion, was this was his confusing habit but Manny felt terrible. He had his reasons for not liking Colin, after all when his little lecture was done some was different, something was missing... but he couldn't figure it out.
"I should've escaped, not harry... I didn't have to do that. But I just felt... guilty." He choked back his words and shook his head, there was a unobtainable silence that Manny had hated for all these years, he inched closer to Colin no noise was made during this action making Colin completely oblivious. As he was thinking if he told anyone about his brother, what if they treated him bad because he had a brother who was living and they had no one... then he felt small arms around his stomach... hugging...him? He was about to turn around and tell the stupid fool to not touch him. But he heard the words spill out from the kids mouth.
"I'm sorry about what happened Colin, but don't worry... I knew there was something more to you." Colin looked back at him not caring about the germs right now and hugged him back crying a little. "Don't worry colin, I promise as long as you and I are down here you have me to talk to, even if we ever get out of here." Manny was determined to help Colin and not for just a small task to keep himself entertained. No. That wasn't it at all. It was because Colin was misunderstood, and no one knew. Colin felt a lot of burden fall off his shoulders like he could ask someone for help and would not ever be jealous at him for anything... he was friends with this little kid.

Okay, my apologies this was rushed and it's ugh... so, I don't know anymore, I want to do more theories so... if you want my opinion on any theory that you have or a popular one I had no idea about then ask, and I'll publish!! -^- and time is limited... cause of dhmis 6!!! Thanks for reading!!
