Finally

Chapter 6

Yesterday was a good day. After having lunch with Harry, and then dinner, we learned a lot about each other.

I learned that he has a big sister named Gemma, his parents were divorced, and he has a step dad named Alan, and his moms name is Anna. He doesn't know where his dad is, because the last time he seen him, he was in jail.

I didn't bother asking why his dad was in jail because it wasn't my business.

He said he doesn't have a favorite color or food, because there are so many to choose from. His favorite song is You and I by Ed Sheeran, and that he is his idol. He's 17 just like me and he's a senior in highshool. His birthday February 1st, a month before mine.

I told him some stuff about me but nothing to much. That my favorite color is white because it goes with everything, my favorite thing to eat is apples. I told him how I'm a vegetarian, play piano, I'm 17 and a senior in high school, and then I told him about my family and then stopped there.

I didn't want to talk about what I've gone threw, and I sure as hell wasn't going to ask him what he has been threw. I don't know if he self harms or not because he's wearing a long sleeve. I'm not going to ask him because that would be weird as shit.

When he would take a bite of his food he would always chew like he the biggest wad of gum in his mouth. He would make funny jokes about the other patients as in making fun of them and we would just laugh are asses off.

The guards kept telling us to be quite but we weren't listening.

One of them came over there and grabbed my arm and sat me down at the table on the other side of the present table I was just sitting at.

When I sat down, I looked over at Harry and he was laughing so hard he wasn't making any noise. I started laughing too and we both looked even crazier then the rest of the patients. Sitting by ourselves just laughing.

We kept looking at each other and making silly faces and making weird objects with our hands. Almost everybody was looking at us like we were crazy, but I didn't care. I was having too much fun with this.

It was amazing when Harry would smile, because I could see his dimples from over here. His teeth were white and straight, but his two front teeth were just a tad bit bigger then the others, witch made his smile more unique.

He was just so damn unique.

When dinner was over and we started heading out of the cafeteria he walked by me and asked for a high five. When I stuck my hand up to five him, he pulled his hand away moving his fingers saying "Jelly fish." I made a gasp putting my hand over my heart acting like I was offended. Then he heald up his pinky saying "Pinky promise I won't do it again." And I fell for it and put my pinky up, but he wiggles it away saying "Baby jelly fish!" I pretended like I was crying and he started laughing. He then held out his arms asking for a hug. I thought about it for a second and knew what I was gonna do.

When I was coming at him with my arms, I backed away moving my arms saying "BIGGER JELLY FISH!" The same time he did it. We bust out into laughter and I never thought I could laugh so much in one day, In a mental hospital, with some guy I only met yesterday, that morning.

When I got back to my unit it was time for phone calls. I called my mom and told her about my day, how she had to come up soon to sign some papers, and about the new guy I had met. And how today, was the first god day I've had in a while.

It was time for showers, then snacks, and then finally, bed.

I went to sleep almost instantly when I laid down. I was probably so exhausted from all the laughing I did.

And now it's the next morning and here I am, in my temporary bed, thinking about yesterday, and how I couldn't wait for today to begin. And I couldn't help but think,

I don't think I've ever been this happy.
