Robes

I didn't remember
Laughter
Nor the meaning of fun
But with you near
To keep me safe
I let down my guard
And open up my eyes
To forget my fear

     Seokjin finally comes out of his corner and shivers, pointing to his clothing. I stop in the middle of placing the duvet onto the mattress and pick up his pajamas.

     They are thin, blue, and at least one size too big. I huff and pull the smooth material over his head. He shakes his head around like a puppy, once its on. Next are the pants. The towel drops and I once again avert my eyes from his junk.

     He tenses up as I get nearer and touch his leg for him to lift it.

     Why is he always so scared of being close..? What a stupid question- the answer is trauma. Someone did something to him...

     I hand him the pants so that he can put them on himself and turn to the bed, my mind racing.

     Namjoon said that he had an incident before, one where he raped someone... This doesn't add up with the fact that he is terrified of others touching him. And everyone says that he's violent for no reason but he gives obvious signs and a slight buildup before losing control- even then being too afraid to move.

     He's like a child...

     Not one bit of this makes sense and I don't have the time I usually would to make sense of it since I'm not going home tonight...

     I rub my temple and decide to bring Seokjin to the laundry room so that we can find him a robe or something warmer than just those pajamas.

     He looks excited as I lead him out the room but he's also obviously nervous- a bad combination in my opinion.

     I keep myself on high alert all the way there, looking for any triggers or Doctors from earlier that seem to set him on edge.

     Once in the laundry room, Seokjin sticks close to my side, the loud machines yelling at him. We reach a rack of clean robes in various colors.

     I look to Seokjin and give him his first task- well... from me.

     "Pick out a robe, Seokjin. It will be warmer than those pajamas." I smile.

     As he's looking at them, or more like studying them, another doctor walks in with two patients- young girls girls in straight jackets, identical twins- and I recognize her from my first day. She was the one who told me that I was odd. I don't think I ever got her name...

     She leads the girls to where Seokjin and I are but makes sure to keep them away from him.

     "Doctor Caswell!" She chirps ,"what a coincidence!."

     I smile back at her and nod ,"Seokjin had an accident so we came here before bed to get some warmer clothes."

     "Ah," she says before motioning to the girls ,"These are my latients from Floor Eight, Ward B."

     I cock my head to the side... Floor eight is for homicidal patients... And Ward B like Seokjin..? The girls only look to be about twelve and they seem so harmless... How decieving.

     I nod ,"Well then, I'll take Seokjin and get out of your way." I laugh and turn back to Seokjin.

     He has the sleeve of a pink robe and is staring intently at me.

     I blink for a moment ,"Seokjin, bud, that is definitely not your size." I laugh loudly pulling the robe from the rack to show a Monster High themed robe that was about five sizes too small for him.

     One of the girls make a soft grunting sound, causing Seokjin to turn around and look at her. He grabs the robe from me and pushes past to get to her.

     Thats when I realize that my patient, supposedly one of the most dangerous patients in this building, is not restrained in a jacket.

     I'm too late, he reaches jer, his arms going around her neck and-

     Wait...

     He pulls back, smiling barely enough to recognize that its even a smile, the robe tied over the girl's straight jacket. With an awkward pat on her head, he strides back over to the rack and pulls out another pink robe, this one about his size.

     The other Doctor and I stare at eachother in shock.

     Before anything gets out of hand, I look at Seokjin and decide not to take any chances. "Okay, put that on and we will head back to your room."

     He gives me a tiny nod of understanding and begins to strip.

     "NO!!!" I exclaim, the other doctor shielding the girls.

     He pouts before pulling his pants back over his naked waist. The doctor is madly blushing and trying to look anywhere but at him even as he is fully dressed.

     I am too, to be honest.

     "Well!" I stammer ,"We'll be on our way! It was nice meeting you again doctor..."

     She stutters ,"S-S-Shawna."

     "Shawna!" I wave goodbye while pushing Seokjin out the door.

     I feel something from him I've never expected to feel- laughter. His shoulders are shaking but I can tell that he's not trembling.

     I smile widely to myself and lead him back to his room to get ready for bed.
