Scared... (Shawn Mendes)

Chapter 23: Phonecall

Shawn's POV

Ugh, why can't mental hospitals have hamburgers, or pasta.

I sat down at a table with my tray filled with a strange looking meat and a salad. Men and women surrounded me, all looking sad and pale.

It was like high school all over again.

I took a bite out of my salad, the lettuce tasted strange. A ear peircing scream shocked me.

"NO!" A lady screamed as the men dragged her away, I suddeny felt scared.
"Hey" A voice said, sitting beside me. I looked and seen Jerry.

"Jerry I am so sorry" I mumbled staring at his cheek.
"Save it, Im fine" He gave me a smile and took a bite out if his salad.
"How do you eat that?" I asked slightly disgusted.
"You get used to it" He chomped down more salad.

"Oh" Was all I could say, I decided to stick with my water, even it tasted strange.

"Wanna join my group talk?" Jerry asked, I looked at him confused.
"We talk about our problems, share stories" He explained.
"Sure I guess, Im gonna go to our room" I stood up with my tray.
"It starts in an hour" He called to me as I walked away.

I set my tray by the trash can and trudged to my room.

I sat on the bed, whiteness covered the room. Tears slowy ran down my cheeks.

"I wanna go home" I sobbed in my hands. "I want to see Haley"

"Are you okay?" A girls voice came from the hallway, I looked to see a small girl that looked to be about my age.
"Yes" I sniffled wiping my eyes.
"You don't look okay" She said coming into the room and sitting in my bed.

I suddenly broke down and cried into her shoulder.
"I want to leave, I hate this place" I mumbled.

"Shh" She quietly whispered into my ear, it made me calm down.
"Is Haley your girlfriend?" She asked, placing both her hands on my shoulders and staring into my eyes.
"Yes" I mumbled, tears slowly went down my cheeks.

"When are you leaving?" She asked.
"I-I don't know" I stuttered.
"I had a boyfriend to" She lookdd to the ground.
"Where is he now?" I asked, feeling bad for her.
"Hes in hell" She smirked an evil look in her eyes.
"Uh what?" I pushed away from her.
"One stab in the throat an he was out like a light" She smiled.

"Uh you should go" I stood up and gestured her to the door.
She stood up and pinned me against the wall.
"You know..sometimes I get lonely..very lonely.." She whispered in my neck.

I cringed and struggled to free myself from her surprisingly strong grip.
"HELP" I screamed.
"No one can hear you" She said with a small laugh.

It reminded me of so much.

She pulled something slowly out of her pocket.

A knife.

"How the hell did you get that in here!" I yelled, I heard stomps come from down the hallway, my door burst open.
"Godamnitt Kassidy!" A man yelled, he pulled her off of me.
"No! Hes my boyfriend!" she yelled to the man, I gave her the "what the hell" look.
"Uh no im not psyco bitch, bye!" I sassily said and turned my back to her.
"Just wait and see!" She screamed before being dragged out the door.

You can't trust anyone.

Haley's POV

I drove home from the hospital, Matt sat in the passenger seat.
"Tell me now Haley! Where Shawn?" He asked sternly.

"You wanna know were he is? Hes in a mental hospital, my boyfriends mental!" Tears poured out of my eyes.
He looked at his vans for a second before looking up at me with pity.
