"Ronnie you need to eat," Luke says to me at the breakfast table.
"You said it will make me throw up."
"You need something in your stomach to take your meds." I put down my fork.
"Who said I was taking my meds?" he sighs.
"Ronnie..."
"They make me even more sad and angry." He stands up.
"I'm going to go get you a yogurt. Ill be right back." I nod and he heads to the kitchen.
"Hey you." Anna from group sits at the table.
"What do you want?" I ask.
"I heard you're here for trying to kill yourself."
"And..?" I say.
"So your here for being suicidal."
"And your here for being homicidal." her face hardens.
"How did you know that?" she asks sharply.
"It's obvious how everyone shrinks back whenever you talk. And how no one really talks to you," I say shrugging.
"No you can't just tell. Who told you?"
"No one told me. I'm just a very good observer."
"No who told you!" she screams. Luke comes back to the table, but I had to physically restrain him as the guards came and took her.
"I leave you for two seconds and you almost get killed," he jokes. I shrug.
"Always looking for trouble," I say with a wink. He smile and hands me a yogurt. I mumble a thanks and actually eat it.
"Why does an opposite person give you your meds?" I ask him.
"Cause my meds are stronger than everyone else's," he says not looking at me.
"Why?" I ask as soon as the nurses announce its time for meds.
"You better take your meds," Luke says as he walks over to his nurse. I get in line with all the others because I see Luke watch me from the doorway.
------------------
During school Luke sits next to me as we do math. He bumps his knee on mine and quietly laughs whenever I bump his back. Eventually he leaves his knee on mine.
When I finish my math before class ends, I pull out my almost full notebook that Dr. Malerie gave me and write.
"What's that?" Luke asks. I look up as he looks at my notebook.
"Oh, my therapist gave it to me to write in."
"Can I read some of it?" he asks. I hesitate but I trust him so I slide it over to him.
After he read quite a few pages he looks at me. "This is really good."
"No it's not. Its just random things," I say.
"No Ronnie this is like... really good," he says looking at me still.
"Really?" I ask.
"Yes really." He closes it and slide it back over. "You should write about us." He smiles and scoots closer to me. I smile back at him.
When the teacher dismisses us. We head to lunch were they were having tacos that were actually pretty decent for once.
I get up to leave for my therapy session. "You wanna hang out in my room for free time?" Luke asks.
"Yeah that sounds good."
"Okay see you later," he says with the biggest smile on his face.
"See ya."
----------------------------------
"You've filled it up all ready?" Dr. Malerie asks as she walks over to her desk to get me another notebook.
"Yeah I've had a lot of stuff to write."
"Well that's good. Does it keep your mind off of things?" she asks.
"Yeah it does actually."
"Good, good." She hands me a green composition notebook.
"Thanks." I say observing it in my hands thinking about what I'm going to write.
She dismisses me and I drop off my notebook in my room before I go to Luke's room.
--------------
"Hey there." Luke says as I enter his room. It's oddly cold in there and he's under the blankets. "They keep it colder in my room because I get hot at night." I nod and he motions for me to come to him.
I walk towards him and he grabs me by the waist and pulls me onto the bed with him under the covers. We were both giggling by then.
He wraps his arms around his waist and my arms were around his. He pushes my hair back behind my ear.
"You're beautiful," he says quietly.
"Luke.."
"Don't. You are," He says scrunching his eyebrows. "You are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen. Like I don't even know how it's possible for you to have that much beauty." I laugh.
"That was very cheesy Luke," I say.
"I'm sorry," he says scooting away.
"No no. I like it," I say smiling. he scoots back even closer. He nuzzles his head into my neck which makes me giggle.
He starts kissing my neck sloppily all over. I can feel him smiling against my neck and he starts laughing.
He looks up at me and his face gets serious. I see him look at my lips, which telling by movies and books, he wants to kiss me.
I've never actually been kissed before. He leans in closer. "Luke."
"Yeah?" he asks leaning closer.
"I've never kissed anyone before."
"Me neither," He says leaning in more. I smile and his lips finally touch mine. He moves his hands to both sides of my face.
This kiss was electrifying. That may be weird to say, but I could literally feel the sparks.
When he pulls away, I felt breathless.
"I'm sorry," He says. I shake my head.
"No don't." Then we kissed again.
---------------------
The rest of the day was the usual. We went to afternoon group had dinner (more picking through the disgusting food) then during free time there was more cuddling and kissing and eventually we fell asleep in his room.
