Nicotine: the sequel to 'The Ballad Of Brallon'

Dr. Reid

Brendons pov:

This hospital is very homophobic. They put me on the girls unit because they think I'm going to try to have sex with the guys here. No matter how many times I tell them I'm engaged, they don't care. They think since I'm so insane and I black out that I might do it without realizing it. I'd never cheat on Dal no matter how crazy I get. 

So now I'm stuck on this unit with a ton of girls who know who I am. I was stuck in the restraints room for two weeks and now that I'm out I'm afraid to leave my room. Some of the girls wait outside my door just to see me. As I'm on my way to the doctors office the girls all say hi to me. Like I'm the best fucking psycho they met.

When I get into the doctors office I ask him why I can't leave yet. "Well," Dr. Reid starts. I hates when he says that, it's like a 'but' bad news always follows. "Have you been having any nightmares lately?" Dr. Reid asks. "No I haven't!" I reply back with an attitude. I'm sick of being here and I want to get out. "So then what do you call what you did last night?" He asks. I think back and I swear I didn't have one. As if he can read my mind he tells me, "It's completely normal for someone to have seen something as traumatic as you have to be experiencing black outs, seeing what happened to your boyfriend." "Fiance!" I snap, "He's my fiance. I don't expect you homophobic doctors to care."

"What makes you think I'm a homophobe?" Dr. Reid asks. "Um maybe it's the fact that you won't put me on the guys unit. Because you think just cause I like fucking guys I want to do all of them! Or because you can't stand saying I have a fiance Who's a guy!" I replied "That is not the case, we have protocol here that we need to follow. And, until your nightmares stop I unfortunately can not discharge you for the safety of yourself and others," says Dr. Reid.

I storm out of Dr. Reid's office and go straight to my room to avoid all of the girls. I read through my notebook of all the song I wrote about Dallon.

*If anyone wants to know I do have a personal experience with mental hospitals in fact I'm writing this from inside one right now, some of the stuff in this story may possibly be based on real events. I am not trying to do any attention seeking I'm just letting you know so that no one takes offense to some of the things I write about it
