Amanda's pov

After two days of Simon waking up in the middle of the night and making me eat whatever he bought and two days of him waking up in a fit and trying to hurt me and everyone around him, Eric, Julie, Nicholas and I all decided that I would stay with him till he falls asleep and then swap with Nick so he spends the night next to him and the morning dealing with his violent attacks and that's how its been everyday since. He stares off for longer periods, snaps when questioned on anything that happened and talks to a guy named Michael more and more just in private. Luckily today they guys go back to work and they get tested, they will even ask us about what they are like at home so we can find out if he actually has ptsd or not.

"Amanda, are you ready?" Simon asked dressed in his uniform already

"Yes, have you eaten anything yet?" I asked walking over to him and placing my hand on his chest, I found out that if you ask him questions about food with your hand on his chest he wont get as angry as he would've

"No." Simon said curtly

"Okay lets go" I said knowing he wont eat anything no matter what anyone says, he would just get angry

"Good" Simon nodded limping to the car as his mother carried the crutches

"I still don't understand why he refuses to use those" Nicholas said pointing to the crutches

"Maybe it's like a pride thing" Eric said shrugging

"I hope they figure out what's wrong with him today" Nicholas groaned walking to the car with the others

"Nick don't be rude" Julie said shaking her head as she placed the crutches in the boot

"Mum he is a psychopath now, and it's fucking terrifying" Nick said getting in the car and slamming the door

"He is not a psychopath" Eric said angrily as he too got in the car

"Yes he is, he gets up in the middle of the night calls me Michael and makes me eat and when I don't he gets aggressive with it" Nicholas said folding his arms as Julie and I also got in the car

"See you can't even deny it cause you know it's true" Nick said, I looked at Simon sat in the middle of Nick and I to see if he was paying attention to any of this and sighed in relief as I noticed he was just staring off

"He is sitting right next to you and if he really is one you should probably shut up" Julie said looking back at him "and besides that he isn't even supposed to know you sleep next to him instead of Amanda" She added

"He isn't even listening, he is in his own little world thinking about god knows what! Probably a way to kill us all" Nick said

"I am listening, I know you sleep next to me and I don't want to kill anyone" Simon mumbled continuing to stare off,

I looked around me and noticed that everyone of them were just staring at him not knowing what to say or do, "Stop staring at me" Simon said now looking at them but they didn't so Simon stared off again

"You all really think I'm a psychopath don't you?" Simon muttered

"No of course we don't" I said softly

"Speak for yourself" Nicholas said suddenly getting his voice back after the shock

"Nick, shut it" Eric said

"Say I am one Nick? How are you going to defend yourself when I'm awake all night while you sleep? How are you going to stop me if I decide I've had enough of you calling me pyscho and a loser? You've never had training where as I have, I been trained to kill people" Simon said his voice low as  he looked right at Nick
