"You're in code red, Charlotte?" Andre groaned. He couldn't help but want to shake his little sister. He couldn't help but wonder where he went wrong as her older brother.

"Please don't give me a lecture." Charlotte groaned, "you try being here for three weeks  and being treated like a psychopath because you smoked a LITTLE bit of weed."

"You also robbed a place." Keithie added.

"Fuck off, Keithie." Charlotte snapped.

"Love you too." Keithie said under his breath.

"The reason you've been in here this long is because you're acting like a psychopath. You can't swing at people every time someone is at the door." Donna added. Charlotte couldn't help but giggle at her response.

"IM ANGRY!" Charlotte yelled, "Andre, you smoked weed but did mom and dad put your bitch ass in a mental place?"

"Charlotte, you have to own up to the fact that-"

"Even if I didn't rob a place they were still going to send me here!" Charlotte cried. Donna was going to lean in to hug Charlotte but backed off when Charlotte glared at her.

"Okay, right. Not the time." Donna walked away.

"I have a bond." Charlotte started off, "Mom and Dad won't pay it but it's only three hundred. One hundred for each month I'm here." Charlotte grabbed her brothers hand, "Please, Andre! I promise to not be violent anymore if you just get me out of here!" Charlotte whined.

"I'll pay it." Keithie spoke up.

"What?" Donna and Andre exclaimed at the same time.

"Oh, don't act like y'all didn't know that my dad gives me a thousand dollar allowance each week." Keithie huffed.

"I need new parents." Andre said under his breath.

"I could have told you that three weeks ago." Charlotte added.

"Here." Keithie pulled out his wallet and handed the money to Andre, "Charlotte, where does he pay?" Keithie asked.

"The front desk. That stupid bitch hates me." Charlotte groaned.

"I don't think so. Apparently everyone here is to afraid to hate you." Andre snickered before walking out.

Andre was greeted by the two officers outside the door grant escorted him to the front desk. He had to stop and think if Charlotte was ready to be out of here. She had changed and he's afraid that she hasn't learned a thing.

"Um, I'm Andre McKenzie. I'm here to pay my sister Charlottes bond fee or whatever." Andre started off.

"What a brave soul." The lady mumbled. She handed Andre an envelope to put the money in and papers to discharge Charlotte. Lots and lots of papers. Once he was done Andre was led back to Charlottes room.

"Charlotte if you leave you have to promise to eat." Keithie started off.

"Yeah because you look like shit." Andre added.

"I'll chop your dick off. How would that work out for you at your second year of college?" Charlotte hissed. Donna started to Chuckle but backed off when Andre glared at her.

"How about 'Thank you, you're the best big brother ever'" Andre cheered.

"Wait." Donna paused, "Is it not going to be awkward between you and your parents?"

"I'm going to make their life a living hell." Charlotte shrugged.

"No." Keithie chimes in, "Don't give them a reason to want to send you back here. Charlotte, Wake up!" Keithie shook her. Charlotte grabbed his hands and pushed him back.

"Stop it." Charlotte groaned, "I can deal with my parents." She rolled her eyes.

"Okay, well we have to get you home because I'm suppose to fly out for my second year of college." Andre explained.

"Right, because you had to pick the furthest college away from me." Charlotte sighed.

"Not from you, our parents." Andre snickered. Charlotte wasn't allowed to bring any personal items with her so all she had were the clothes that the institution had given her. They all walked down the hallways and Charlotte ended up flipping the lady at the front desk off.

"Charlotte!" Donna screeched and smacked her hand down.

"I would like a story time on why you hate her so much." Andre snickered.

"Later." Charlotte mumbled as they walked out of the building. Andre examined his little sister some more and was in disbelief that she still walks perfectly fine. She was skinny and he's hoping that she will get back on track after everything goes back to normal. Donna volunteered to Drive back. Keithie was up front beside her while Charlotte and Andre were in the back.

Donna looked in the mirror to see Charlotte leaning her head on Andre's shoulder and they were both asleep. Donna motioned for Keithie to look back. He looked back right in time for Charlotte to open her eyes and catch him looking. They shared a small smile before Charlotte Closed her eyes again.

Charlotte had walked into her home for the first time in three weeks. Her parents were stunned to see that Andre, Donna and Keithie actually fought hard enough to get her out of the Mental institution.

"Charlotte?" Her mom stood up and looked her up and down, "What the hell happened to you?" Her mom gasped.

"You assholes put me in a mental institution." Charlotte grumbled. Charlotte gave her brother a goodbye hug as he had to catch his plane in two hours.

"I love you." Andre told his sister, "I will flunk out of college for you, so if you need anything I'm just a phone call away." Andre kissed his sisters forehead and looked at Keithie, "Take care of my little sister."

"Always." Keithie responded. Andre has to rush out the door but it was also because he didn't want to see anyone get into a fight before he left for college.

"Charlotte." Her dad stood up, "You look horrible."

"I'm aware." She replied coldly.

"I refuse to let you stay here until you get better." Charlottes mom scolded. Charlotte was ready to go fight but Donna held her hand to keep her calm.

"Guess you're staying in Greg's room." Keithie spoke up. Donna couldn't help but smirk at Charlotte's mom because of how pissed she is. Charlotte looked back at Keithie and smiled.

"I'm just here to get clothes and then I'll be on my way to get school supplies." Charlotte shrugged.

"We are your parents!" Charlottes mom stopped her, "You don't get to run around this town wild and free. We will be sending you back-"

"As long as Keithie is in my life I will not be in a mental institution." Charlotte defended herself, "Maybe you two should go to a Mental Institution." Charlotte suggested before going upstairs to get her things.

"You two need to get out of my house." Charlottes mom scolded at Keithie and Donna.

"We'll get out of your house when Charlotte comes back down safely." Donna snapped. Keithie got wide eyed because Donna has never been the one for Confrontation. Charlottes mom ran off to the other room when Charlotte Came back down.

"Ready?" Keithie asked.

"Ready." Charlotte smiled. Charlotte turned back to her dad who gave her a small sad smile, "I love you, Dad." She replied sadly.

"I love you. Please get better." He responded before walking away. Charlotte walked out the door with an ache in her chest.

"We can go buy school crap to take your mind off things?" Keithie suggested.

"Yeah, lets do that." Charlotte said sadly.
