Obsessive, Compulsive.

Fourteen.

A/N: I'm back! Sorry I've been gone so long, I've been really sick with the flu for all this time but I'm here now. I'm feeling a bit better, but my writing might not be the best so I'm sorry for that. The chapter might be slightly shorter too, but I really am trying my best. Thank you for sticking by me!

"Good morning, Robert!" Bill chirped into the Acute Ward. A grumble of acknowledgement came from Robbie's room. Bill reached his doorway and grinned. "Come on... Wake up."

"No." Robbie whined from his room.

I reached Bill's side and looked in to see Robbie pull the blanket over his head and wriggle into the sheets. Smiling softly, I looked up at Bill and then back at Robbie.

"But you've got a visitor." Bill's eyes twinkled with amusement.

Robbie lifted his head, his hair sticking out in all sorts of different spikes. "Oh... Bella-Bean. Good morning."

His room was much barer than everyone else's. Antonia had posters all over her wall, others had paintings and other things to express themselves. Even Eve had a couple of neatly polished decorations around, but Robbie's room had nothing.  Not even any clothes were out on the floor. It looked like no one lived there.

"Good morning." I nodded.

There was a small ruckus outside, and voices began to chatter. Bill peered into the hallway. "The troops are here, I better go report for duty. You guys come for breakfast in a minute, okay? Don't tell anyone I let you in here alone. See you in a minute."

"See you." I said quietly, holding my breath until Bill left. Shadows whisked past the doorway and I panicked slightly, tapping my feet four times and breathing in sets of four. I glanced up at Robbie for reassurance.

He hesitated. "What are you doing here?"

"Saying good morning." I shrugged, breathing shakily.

"You've already said good morning." He narrowed his eyes. "So you've finished now."

I frowned. "Oh. I'll go, then."

After a moment of quiet I turned around and started to walk away.

"Wait!" Robbie insisted, and I heard eight footsteps creak quickly behind me.

I spun round quickly and met his eyes. "What?"

His eyes fell to the floor and he flushed slightly. "I need to tell you something."

"What is it?" I asked.

"Mack was being creepy to Alice last night. I saw it. He was flirting with her and stuff. They thought I was asleep after I was crying and stuff, but I wasn't. I was awake. I watched him try and kiss her." Robbie said quickly.

"Mack? Is that the site manager?" I asked, realization hitting me.

"Yeah!" He nodded. "That's him!"

"I saw him being weird to her too! I spoke to Alice about it and she told me not to tell anyone because she would lose her job. I don't want her to lose her job." I said desperately.

"So you'd rather she'd have a job here and be in danger than somewhere else and safe?" Robbie frowned.

"Well... No. I just don't want her to be angry with me. She said it wasn't a big deal, either... I guess some guys are just creepy." I felt my heart crawl into my throat.

"Are you making excuses for him?" Robbie glared at me.

"No, no! I just... It's weird. It's weird that someone who is supposed to keep us safe isn't okay herself." I fretted. "Should we tell Bill?"

Robbie paused. "Not yet. Only if we notice anything weird again. It could cause a load of drama over nothing, and no one would believe us. We're just two mental-case teenagers."

"Are you sure?" I asked.

He took a deep breath and nodded. "Yeah. I'm sure."

We both avoided eye contact for a moment before Robbie shifted uncomfortably. "So. Should we go in to breakfast...? Together?"

"Ok." I flushed red. He adjusted his black joggers and long sleeved black shirt. Neither of us wanted to make the first step towards the door.

Something about Robbie made me feel intensely awkward.

Suddenly frustrated with my lack of social skills, I pushed past Robbie and stormed quickly out into the hallway, almost crashing straight into Antonia. Antonia frowned. "What's wrong? Why are you rushing?"

Robbie appeared behind me, flustered. Antonia raised her eyebrow at both of us. I stuttered. "What?

Antonia laughed. "Come on, Love Birds. Let's go eat."

I turned round and glared at Robbie for a second before the three of us started walking down towards the food area at the end of the hall.
