Hospital for Souls (ryden)

Monstres

°Ryan's Pov°

I was brought back to the institution a few hours later. Brendon was still at the hospital even though he had woken up a few seconds after the nurse dragged him away. I laid in my bed wondering what Brendon was doing and if he was thinking of me too. As the hours pass Brendon slipped into my thoughts more often, while Josh slipped out. I was slowly giving into the heaviness of my eyelids when I heard a click and knob of my door being jiggled. I hop up quickly and see light seep through the crack of the door and wait for the person to come in but no one does. I get up to shut the door when I'm suddenly on the floor, curling up in pain. I clench my eyes shut as pain ripples through my entire body. I hear the door being shut and the pain dies down. I open my eyes and instantly wish I hadn't. Four hooded figures surround me in a defining silence. I try to move but my limbs feel heavy and limp. A small ringing forms in the room as they reach up and take off their hoods. My breathing stops and everything goes black.

Quick A/N
So this is where the horror comes in, the next few chapters will have very descriptive details so if you don't like blood, monsters, demons, and gory the this probably isn't the book for you. Buttt in case you still want to read for the ryden then I'll put warnings in and bars on where the horror comes and ends.
But the next part is going to be pretty calm with the scary stuff. Enjoy?(:
______________________________
I wake up with a killer headache and bruises all over my body and the fact that I was on the floor didn't help with my confusion. I sit up and peer around the room, everything seemed normal. 'Maybe I was sleepwalking' I think to myself pushing the situation to the side so I could get ready for my appointments, yes APPOINTMENTS, three of them to be exact. Apparently, me fainting was a "warning sign" and now I'm on some kind of watch. Anyways now that we're past that I quickly change into the clothes set on the tiny hamper, fix my hair, and freshen myself up before sitting on my bed and waiting for Josh or Brendon to come and get me. I wait and wait and wait but no one comes. I start to get a little anxious and pace around the room. Twenty minutes pass and I'm still pacing. Ten more minutes before I hear a familiar click and the door finally opens revealing Josh and two other people behind him. Josh is the first to speak "Ryan, why are you up so early?" I cock my head in confusion before replying back. "What do you mean why am I up so early? Why are you so late?" I say with a bite of anger laced into my words "And who the hell are they" I add on while pointing to the people behind him. One of the guys, who was a lot shorter than everyone in the room frowns at me.

(Start the song 'Jet pack blues' here ⬇ I think it makes this part sadder.)
(Patrick slays me💓like a prince slays a 🐉)
He takes two steps forward and begins to whisper in Josh's ear. Josh frowns a little before straightening up and stepping towards me, I back up a bit resisting his touch (which again confuses me deeper) but he pulls me into him engulfing me into a hug. I hug back tightly, letting my head rest on his shoulder. His warmth instantly making me feel at ease, pulls away slightly and whispers in my ear. "I'll be outside if you need me, don't be afraid Ryan everything will be fine." He presses a soft kiss on my cheek and pulls back all the way and smiling at me before turning away and leaving, closing the door behind him. And again I felt alone the warmth of Josh fading quickly. 'What does he mean?' I think to myself 'What are they going to do with me?' I look up and see the two guys staring at me closely, using their eyes to roam over my body collecting every detail they could. I turn away from them suddenly feeling insecure. I hear a chuckle and footsteps on the soft padded floor, I whip around quickly only to come in contact with the shorter of the two. He smiled softly before pushing me down on the bed. "It's okay, we aren't here to hurt you." he says towering over me now. "We just want to make you feel better." he says quickly before stepping away from me and turning back to the other guy. A sheet of fear draped over me. 'What the hell was going on? Who were they? What are they going to do to me?' The shorter one came back over to me and put his hand out "I'm Dr. Stump buuut you can call me Patrick." I shake his hand hesitantly smirking at the way he dragged the 'u' in ' 'but'. I quickly wiped away my smirk and spoke again. "Ryan Ross" I say in quiet voice, close to a whisper before letting go of his hand. "Oh and that's Dr. Way but you can call him Gee." I look over Patrick's shoulder and give a little wave which he returns silently, before walking towards me. He had a bag slung around him that jingled slightly with every step. I smile nervously as he approaches Patrick and I, the faint smell of cigarettes🚬 wafted up my nose as he came closer.

(I should've got a pic of gee with a bag but whateve he looks like this. Pretty good aye?👌👌)

It reminded me of home and how my dad used to hug me, with my face buried deep into his shoulder. There was always smell of cigarettes and cinnamon stuck to his clothing. The memory caused a sting to my eyes as I felt them water up. Gerard furrows his eyebrows and takes a step back. "Why are you crying? Did I do something?" he says quietly looking at the floor. I couldn't help but let the tears fall, he sounded exactly like my Dad and I couldn't take it, I knew he was gone but it felt like I was hearing him one more time, one more time before he got sick, before he went to the hospital, before he died. The tears were falling harder now and I couldn't stop them. I feel a set of arms around me and I look up to see Patrick holding me tight, telling me that everything was okay and that I would be alright. But I knew better. I knew that I wouldn't be alright. I felt cold, colder before and Patrick's warmth wasn't doing it for me. I needed Josh, Josh made me feel warm, he made me feel, needed, he made me feel okay. "Josh, I-I n-need Josh." I say through my tears, choking on the words as I spoke. Patrick nods before letting me go and calling for Josh, who was still on the other side of the door waiting for me just like he had said. I look up when I hear the door open and Josh immediately runs to me, wrapping his arms around me and kissing the top of my head. "It's okay Ryan, I'm here now." and at that moment I felt warm again. Josh made me feel warm again.
