Duffs pov:

Izzy just avoids eye contact with me.

I don't know what it is, but something about him pulls me closer. He is so interesting.

I don't know his personality tho, but the way he walked in the room, and how he eats his food, it is so mesmerizing to look at.

Gosh I sound so weird. I wish I had some booze.

"Why are you here?" Izzy asks.

"Booze, a friend brought me here." I say.

"No I meant why are you sitting with me." He says.

Damn, that kinda hurts.

"Well, you looked lonely. So I thought you might wanted someone to talk to." I say.

"Maybe I like being alone." he says.

I smirk at him.
"I can leave you alone if you want. We all die alone. Right?" I say and get up.

Izzy looks confused. Like he can't believe I would actually get up.

"Well that isn't really true." He says.

I turn around, standing next to the table and look at him.

"I don't think we die alone. I guess you can choose if you want to die alone." he says and eats his eggs.

I sit back down.

"Like if you choose to push everyone away you will die alone." he says.

"Damn that sounds deep man." I say in a sarcastic tone.

"What ever." Izzy says and suppresses a smile.

"Where are you from?" he asks me.

"Seattle." I say.

"And what is a Seattle boy like you doing here?" He says.

"I want to get in a band." I say.

"What do you play?" Izzy asks me while he reaches for his drink.

"Bass." I say. I looked at him drinking. God I would hurt someone to get some booze right now.

"I play guitar." he says as he puts his drink down.

"My friend sings, and another friend plays also guitar." he says.

I nod. "Nice." I say.

"How long do we have to be here before we can go home?" Izzy asks.

"It depends. I'm supposed to stay here for a month. And I've already been here for three days." I say.

"I want to go home." Izzy says.

"Can't we just leave?" Izzy asks.

"The program is supposed to last 29 days. But we can leave if we want. They will talk us out of it. But they can't keep us here." I say.

"Dude lets leave." Izzy says.

Yeah why not. My insurance can cover these days.

Steven has an appartment. I can crash at his place.

"Do you have a place to stay?" Izzy asks.

"Yeah. I'll crash on my friends couch." I say.

"You can come to my place if you want." Izzy asks.

"Yeah." I say.

"Who do we need to talk to?" Izzy asks.

"I don't know man." I say.
