Sky sits at a mental hospital she had been staying at since she was ten years old. Since then she had stopped talking to everyone but Emily and Jason. Emily and Jason are her friends, her only friends. They didn't like her talking to other people especially about them. If she wanted to talk she would just have to talk to them. They controlled her and she couldn't do anything about it. Even if she tried the voices would just overpower her, take total control over her mind.
We want you all to ourselves
You're special Sky
They don't understand you the way we do
We love you Sky
Somedays the voices would make her do things she didn't want to do. She would try to refused, but they wouldn't take no as an answer. She would have to do whatever she could to please them, even if that meant harming herself. She would take the freshly sharpened blade and connect to her skin ever so gently. She watched as the blood slowly escaped her body and dripped onto the floor. It just started out as one cut but ended as a dozen more. She wept but the voices in her head wouldn't let her stop, they couldn't.
You're weak Sky
You deserve to die
Look at how disgusting you are
You're just like your mother
You bitch, you need to die
Sky tried to block the voice but she failed. They were too loud, they were too cruel. She couldn't forget what she was hearing, it was impossible to do so. All she had to do was listen and wait.
"How are you Sky?" Mr. Jackson , her therapist, asks. As always she leaves him with no answer to his question. "Please, you need to talk to me." He pleads just wanting one word out of the troubled girl. She shakes her head knowing they would be mad. "I have someone here to see you." He said with a weak smile. Sky looks up to see a tall boy with blonde hair walk in. She has never seen him before and Emily is not too happy to see him. "Luke, this is Sky." He says. Luke gives a small warm smile which cause Sky to smile back.
You whore what are you doing
We don't like him
Tell him to leave
Get rid of him now
But Sky doesn't want to get rid of Luke. She wants him to stay with her. They can sense it and become angrier.
You little bitch tell him to leave
"NO! I DONT WANT TO LISTEN TO YOU!" Sky yells. Luke stands there unaware of what is happening. "They are taking to her." Mr. Jackson whispers to Luke. "The voices." He adds.
Luke was aware that Sky did have a mental illness called schizophrenia. He didn't know she would react in such a manner. He did research before coming and did find out that people diagnosed with this illness tend to hear voices and suffer. He gives her a weak smile telling her it's okay.
He thinks your crazy just like everyone else
Sky we love you
He is going to take you away from us
Stop him stop him now
Tell him to leave
Sky tries her best to ignore their cries and tries to focus on Luke. She didn't understand why he was here to see her, nobody ever came to see her. She didn't say a word to him, she just stared. Luke wasn't sure how to act around her, he didn't want to do anything to upset her.
"Why are you here?" Sky finally spoke up. "To see you." he answered smiling. "Why? Nobody cares about me. I'm crazy remember." Sky answered trying to ignore the voices. "WILL YOU SHUT UP!" she yells once more at the voices. Luke doesn't say anything, he can't. He doesn't want to hurt her feelings. He wants to help her, be her friend. He looked at her and she was beautiful to him. She has long blonde hair with ocean blue eyes. He stared at her amazed, he just couldn't look away. "I don't think your crazy." he answered.
He's lying to you Sky
He's going to leave and tell everyone how crazy you are
He doesn't care about you
He wants to see you break just like everyone else
Sky just looks at him with sad eyes. She wants to believe him, but she can't. She knows she's crazy everyone does. What makes her so crazy is Emily and Jason. They don't leave her alone, it's the game they made up. They would see how far they could push her until she was locked up in that little white room alone. She hated that room, she hated the doctor she had to see. He was cruel, all he did was torture her and he seemed to find it funny. He would give her many different medications and put her threw different tests.
"What do the voices tell you to do?" Luke asks. She can't tell him, they don't like to be talked about. "I can't tell you." she said. "Why?" he asked. "They get mad, they don't like to be talked about." she answered flatly.
Tell him to leave Sky
Better yet kill him, kill him now
Make him regret coming here
Go ahead Sky kill him
Luke could tell Sky was in her own little world, a world they would take her to. He was afraid for her, afraid for himself. She kept whispering about him to them. They didn't like him, they wanted him gone. "Your friends don't like me." Luke said. "They don't like anyone really." she answered.
Sky stop talking about us
What are you doing?
Kill him, you're just wasting time
If you don't kill him we will find someone who can
Luke was starting to get uncomfortable from the way Sky stared at him. He wanted to ask what was wrong but knew he would regret it. "You need to leave now please." Sky said. "But-" Luke started but he seen a figure behind Sky that spooked him. "Please." Sky begged. "Are you in trouble Sky?" he asked. "No, you are."
