Hello! I hope you like the story. R&R.

Suicidal. Pyro. Emo. Psych. Freak.

These are the things people call me. After they died I was lost. I was put in an orphanage at 7 and I couldn't stand it. Even though there's a whole bunch of other crazies like the ones who have multiple personality disorder or the ones who don't even know who they are. Just because my parents died. Ouch.

They got me a consoler, didn't help. They gave me meds, not even close. And finally, they left me to cry, didn't make a dent. This place is a prison.

It's almost like a crap school. No, it is a crap school. It's a school for psychos, but they care about you.

"Happy fourteenth birthday, Mary Liz." squeaked Jean, the caretaker. She's become like a mother to me. She was holding a cake with light blue frosting and in the other hand she held a small box with wrappings to match the cake. She sat the cake on my desk and handed me the box. I walked over to the desk and licked of some icing with my finger. Jean put her hands on her hips and looked at me disapprovingly.

"At least I didn't squirt whip cream in my mouth." she smiled.

"Just shut up and open your gift." I ripped open the paper lifted the lid and saw a necklace with a V on the end. I walked over to her and gave her a hug.

"Thanks. What's the V stand for?" I asked.

"Well, I knew you were interested in all those vampire novels so I figured you might like it."

"I love it." I said looking down at the necklace.

"Alright, let's go get you something to eat." then my stomach growled. I had just woke up.

I sat down with a tray next to Adriana and Michael, both my best friends since I got here.

"Happy birthday." said Adriana, in her usual high pitched voice. I looked at her questioningly for a moment.

"Did you take you're meds?" she was bipolar. Extremely. Like we think she needs an exorcism.

"Yes."

"Good."

"Happy birthday." mike said giving me a hug. He had extreme trauma in a crash when he was four. Mental trauma, so that's why he's here. No meds required. Adriana pouted a little before I gave her a hug too.

"Thanks." I said. They shoved a cupcake in front of me on the table. One candle in the middle. "Thanks, again."

"So are you gonna go on the trip to Italy?" asked Adriana.

"Oh, am I aloud?"

"Well, if I'm aloud to then sure as hell you are."

"Right, and awesome."

"Well you better go sign up." said Michael.

"You going?"

"Yeah we're waiting on you."

"Oh."

Sleep, I told myself. There was no way I was gonna fall asleep when there was a surprise. The surprise: we didn't know where in Italy we were going. I was way too excited for that. Great. I flipped over in my bed that was the color of pine trees and closed my eyes, preparing for tomorrow.

I hope you loved it! Sorry it's super short, but this is kinda the prologue.
