"Why did you do it?" "oh ryan- please can you hear me? I heard Josh say as I'm taken away. "I didn't do it I swear." I say quietly as my vision shakes to black but not before I hear Josh again, voice broken and small "You broke your promise. I loved you ryan."

Ryan's PoV

They were sending me away, to another institution, where people in one institution hurt themselves so they get sent here. I understand why they don't believe me, I mean they already think I'm crazy, how else would I have ended up there in the first place. I had one day to say goodbye and then I'd be gone. I look to my left to see Josh still in tears, he looks up slowly before wrapping me in a tight hug, I smile and hug him just as tight, maybe tighter. "Where are they sending you again?" he asks quietly wiping his eyes again "Um I think it's West Way Institute." I say trying to keep myself together, but seeing Josh this way was breaking me down and the act I put on to mask my sadness was starting to break too. "Oh." I see a flash of fear on his face before he covers it up with a sad smile, "At least it's close, I'll visit you. He's not very good at hiding because I can hear the fear in his voice and it's not any regular fear, it's sounded like terror, pure terror.

I walk into the room and see Brendon a still, almost lifeless Brendon. I hold his hand but it no longer feels like his, no feathery soft skin, no warmth, no movement. I felt like breaking down right then and there but I held myself up and held his hand tighter. "Hey Brendon." I say quietly, tears already spilling out "They're sending me a-away, they say I'm not safe and that I need extra help, I w-wish I could stay with you. Help you. I'm sorry this happened. I'm gonna miss you so much." my voice had already broke and my heart felt heavy in my chest. I leaned down to hug him one last time. Before I pull away I whisper in his ear. "And I know we haven't spent much time together, but you made me smile and that kiss, it made me happy. It's going to sound w-weird but I-I really think, I think, I m-might have I loved you. Please wake up. Please please w-wake up, you're- you're the only one who knows. O-only y-you." My words were broken and so was I. I took one last look at Brendon still body before wiping my eyes, and walking out of his room, broken.

Wondering how I'm going to survive another day in these stupid institutes. Honestly, if I wanted to die why don't they let me? Why would they keep someplace where I'm not happy, where I wish for death everyday, What's it to them? I feel a tear escape my eye, I wipe it away and focus on the trees outside.
*skips 2 hour van ride*
The place was huge and a damn lot nicer than the last one. The people still gave me looks of pity but I did my best to ignore them and keep my head down. One person caught my eye in particular. He was a boy about my age with fluffy brown hair and soft brown eyes. He was writing in a corner, he looked up and his soft eyes turned hard as soon as they met mine I look away quickly and follow the woman in front of me. She checks me into a room and gives me a pair of white pants and a plain white shirt. I stare at her for a second before she sighs and gives a black outfit instead. I smile and change quickly, handing her my clothes and the outfit. She gives me a tight smile "You're treatment starts tomorrow." I look at her sideways before replying "Treatment?" I ask, somewhat confused. She furrows her eyebrows "Yes, treatment." she says just before she slamming the door. Bitch. I look around the new room, no window on the door, no hamper, just a plain white room with a plain white bed, and plain padded white walls. Not even a button to call for assistance. I sit on the bed with a sigh and I let my thoughts take over. I wish Josh were here. I miss Brendon. Who was that boy. Why did he look at me so evil. Did he know me? Soon most of my thoughts circled around the boy in the corner. I had to know who he was, or my mind wouldn't let me be.
