"hey babe" colby comes and sits next to me on the couch.
"hi colbs" i smile at him.
"where do you want to go today?" he asks.
"i don't care as long as i'm with you."
"you're too cute. want to stay in and watch a movie?"
"sounds perfect."
he puts his arm around my shoulder and leans in to kiss me.
his lips touch mi-
"miss y/l/n? time to get up."
i open my eyes and see the white ceiling. the stiff bed underneath me creaks as i sit up.
"ms. jones, colby and i were just about to watch a movie." i whine.
"you guys can do that later. now, we have to go get lunch. you slept through breakfast and got angered when i tried to wake you. you need to eat before your session today." ms. jones explains.
i groan and pull my sheets off of me. i slide on my slippers and follow her down the halls to the lunchroom.
ms. jones' pov
she's always talking about this "colby".
we've done research with all of her family and friends, but no colby has ever came up. there was never a colby who went to her school or did any activities with her.
so for now, we let her believe he's real. he's only there when she dreams, but it's a reality to her.
she's been in the institute for almost 18 months now. she came in after a breakdown. her family couldn't help her anymore so we took her in.

i sit at an empty table with my pasta salad and water. i pick at my food as i see ms. jones observing me, taking notes every so often.
but he's still in my head.
colby never leaves my thoughts. he's all i can think about.
i hate when they take me away from him. especially when it's getting good with him.
but i think he understands.
i met colby around 18 months ago. he's been my best friend ever since, and he asked me to be his girlfriend 6 months ago.
"miss y/l/n, lets go. other people need to use this table and i can tell you're done eating." ms. jones interrupts my thoughts.
i take my tray to the trash can and throw away my garbage.
she leads me back to my room.
"in an hour you have a session. i'll come get you then." she tells me. she walks out of the room and i lay on the bed.
i close my eyes and slowly drift off.
"hi colbs. i'm sorry. now where were we?" i smirk at him.
his lips crash into mine and i can feel my heart flutter.
once he pulls away, he looks me in the eyes.
"you're so beautiful" he smiles.
"you're not too bad yourself." i giggle.
"what movie today?" he asks wrapping his arms around my waist, pulling me closer to him.
