Psycho But Not Really

"Alright, Mr Jondus, we are going to run some test on you, and you will return to your room" the annoying nurse said, my whole three months here, she has been very flirty towards me, I've specifically told her that I had a 'girlfriend' but she didn't care, and tried to make a move on me, so I aggressively pushed her off.

"Whatever, just get it over and done with" I coldly said, after being arrested, Lenny and the guys were sent to two years in jail, and I was put in a mental asylum, I'm pretty sure they were bailed out, so I'm the only one left to go home.

I haven't heard from Thea in a long time, I miss her so much, this place is hell, they feed me disgusting food, gosh I miss Thea's baked peaches. I miss everything about her. The nurses and doctors have been keeping track of my insanity levels, and they've been the same ever since I came here, I'm making it difficult for them.

Once I'm free, I don't plan on killing anymore, if I can keep myself together, all I want is to be with Thea.

After the whole incident, the hospital have confirmed that June was dead, she however didn't commit suicide, she died in her sleep from shock, she went into a cardiac arrest. I only heard that Thea had a hard time at Marcls and her mother's funeral, I wouldn't blame her, Marcl was someone special, and her mother was the only person left for her.

I sat in my cell room, waiting for a doctor or nurse to do their daily check up on me, they normally asked me questions and asked how my day was, my day was like every other day, tests, questions, disgusting food, then sleep.

The door to my room finally opened, and in came my regular doctor, Dr Silas, he was a creepy middle aged man, he said he always related to me when he was nineteen, it's the same sob story I've heard, "I lost my family too", or "Don't worry I was always alone", shut up man, I don't want to hear your story, I have my own.

Night finally came by, and the asylum was dead silent, I could only hear the screams of the psycho guy beside my room, yelling and crying to get out, "Hey! Get me out of here! I swear I'll break this wall down!", he screamed, I could bet a hundred dollars that his vocal cords would probably be damaged the next day from all the yelling.

I sighed as I screamed at him, "Shut up man! We're never getting out of here, you hear me? So shut up and accept!" I yelled, he went silent, and sobs were heard from his cell, "I just want to see me daughter", my heart went soft for the guy, the moment took me back to Thea, she was my everything, and I didn't want her to be alone, she had lost everyone.

"I know man... I know the feeling" I whispered, everyone in the asylum could hear our heart felt conversation, I knew that they could relate a lot, but didn't have the heart to speak out. I fell asleep knowing I helped a mental man with his hardships, it made me feel complete in a way, but not fully satisfied.

~~~

Days turned into weeks, and weeks turned into months, and before I knew it, it had been a year since I was in this asylum, the doctors said I haven't progressed, so I can't be let out, I've been sent letters from Lenny saying that I'll be out soon, but I got none from Thea, I had a moment where I thought she had forgotten about me, or ran away.

Today was the same, I was about to go to sleep, when I heard some nurses in front of my door whispering, "I heard something?", "Should we tell the guards?", I grew suspicious as I got up to get a closer hearing of the conversation, they said something about, people breaking in, or another patient playing with them.

The hallways were silent, and the nurses had ran to get the other doctors who were doing a night shift, I was about to go back to my bed when, a knock was on my door, the door opened, and a lady like figure came walking in, "What is it? You guys never do night check ups?" I questioned. The lady stopped and giggled.

"You don't remember me? How sad", the voice hit me.

Thea!

"Thea!" I whispered, she came into the light and smiled, hugging me, I smelt her scent, peaches, I missed that smell so much, she pulled away, and kissed me, we had a heated and long kiss, before she pulled away, "What are you doing here?", I asked, Thea didn't answer, but instead, she pulled me out of my room, and quietly ran across the hallway.

All the guards were on the ground unconscious, and the cameras were all broken, I was shocked. Really shocked.

"What's going on?", I stopped, Thea turned around and smiled, she wasn't answering my questions, she ran to the rooftop where a helicopter was waiting, inside Lenny and the guys were there, I laughed and I waved at them, "Long time no see?" Lenny shrugged.

I looked at Thea, "You're really doing this?" I asked, she nodded and pulled me towards the Chopper, "Wait!" I stopped, Thea gave me a concerned look, "Are you sure about this?" I said, Thea looked hurt, "Don't you want to get out? I'm doing this for you" she raised her voice, "Yes I know! But are you really going to risk all this, you know like, being a criminal now?" I said.

Thea smiled, "I'd do anything just to get us to be together", as soon as she said those words, she kissed me and it was as if all man kind and existence had froze, "Hate to break it to you, but I got a one year old son, waiting for his dad at home", Lenny interrupted us. We both laughed and I got in the helicopter greeting everyone, we lifted off of the ground. I took one last look at the asylum, then back at Thea.

I guess things have changed

I made my girlfriend into a psychopath too. And I'm loving it
