Hey guys! Sorry for the late update it's been a bit hectic, but im trying to update as much as I can.

For the sake of keeping a major boring part out of the story, Im not going to include the morning visits with the doctor, He basically just asks if hinata is feeling happy and what not. Also I need to clarify the reason why they go by first names is because where I went they did that for safety reasons, so nobody could look someone up by their last names. However Im going to be using them for a few because I feel like between some of them it'd be easier to be called by their last names (like with tanaka and nishinoya), while they'd be called by their first names by others.

Shoyo closed the door behind him. There were three people sitting behind one of the tables, a box of files situated by all of them. The middle one, a man, stood up before giving a slight bow towards him. "Hinata Shoyo?"

"Yes sir."

"Nice to meet you I'm Yamuto. I'll be your doctor while you're a resident here, or at least until Dr. Kenma gets back. I need to ask you a few questions so I can figure out which medication will be right for you."

Shoyo gave a light hum as a response, not knowing what else to say.

"Okay, first question: Are you feeling happy at the moment?"

He thought for a moment before shaking his head, "not really. I'm just kind of numb."

"Okay, that was to be expected. Second question: Why are you here exactly?"

Shoyo gave a small grimace, "I tried to over dose."

"Okay, and why?"

"I… I just couldn't handle all the stress that was being put on me, especially with being disowned by half of my family."

Dr. Yamuto looked up from writing down information to look directly at his face. Shoyo could feel his face going a little red, this wasn't a topic he liked to talk about. "Disowned? Why were you disowned?"

Shoyo took a deep breath. "They disowned me because I'm gay. They said that if my grandparents ever found out that it'd probably kill them. Or cause them to be in pain for the rest of their life."

"I… Wow. Well, we're gonna set you up with some anti-depressants and set you up with a counselor." He wrote something down on a piece of paper before handing it to Shoyo, "just take this up to the nurse's station and they'll give you your first dose of medicine."

Taking the paper, he walked towards the door before Dr Yamuto stopped him once more. "Wait a second, I was wondering if I should say something, and I had decided against it but I feel like you need to hear this. You are not alone, and the people who make you sad should not matter. Whatever relationship you had with them doesn't excuse their behavior towards you and they have no right to make you feel this way."

Shoyo gave a small sad smile before leaving the room. He did as told and took the paper to the nurses station and he got his medicine.

He could tell he was being watched, and when he turned towards the source Yuu gave him a thumbs up. The rest of the patients were still lined up against the wall, so Shoyo took his place beside Yuu and Tanaka. "What do we do now?" he asked.

"Well, it seems like Asahi is the last one to visit the doctor today, so when he gets out we'll meet with our care taker and go to class."

"Class?"

"Yeah, our teacher is really nice. You'll have to sit at the front today. They make you take a test your first day here."

Before Shoyo could reply someone called for their attention. The man introduced himself as their care taker. He opened the door for the patients and walked them down the hall towards a classroom. There were girls seated on the left side of the room. Like Yuu said, he was told by the teacher to sit in the front.

After answering questions about his school and taking a long spelling test he was taken into another room with the teacher and seated at a round table.

"So, Shoyo, tell me why you're here and what your goals are for your stay here." The teacher, Takeda, said with a smile.

"I… tried to die, cause of family and school issues. I just… I couldn't take it anymore." Shoyo looked down at his hands, waiting for what typical 'everything gets better' crap that he's heard many times before.

"What kind of problems are you dealing with?"

Shoyo gave a quick glance at Takeda's face before turning his head towards the door. "Well with the family… They disowned me because I'm, well, you know. Gay. They didn't like that and thought I was going to be a bad influence on their son so they cut off all ties with me. They said that if my grandparents found out that it could "quite possibly kill them or cause them to be in pain for the rest of their life." But what got me the most was that at the end of their letter telling me this they said that they loved me. And the school stuff is just basic school stuff, dealing with bullies and drama between friends. It all just became too much."

"Mmm… I know you've probably heard this before, but it does get better. Not by just sitting there and waiting for it to happen though. If you truly want things to get better, you have to get up and keep moving forward. I know it's hard but I believe you can make it."

"You don't even know me." He grumbled.

"I don't have to know you personally, you seem like one of those people who can make anything the dream of happen. Even if it seems impossible. Let me ask you a question, what is your favorite song and who is it by?"

Shoyo looked at him for a second before answering.

"Shadows by Red"

"Alright. Now pretend you are at a mall sitting down for a minute. You look over and surprise! Your favorite band is sitting at the table next to you. After a few minutes the lead singer of the band walks over to you. He taps you on the shoulder. When you look over at him he hands you a piece of paper. You look at him confused before he says 'Sorry to bother you, I'm in a band, and I was wondering if you could look over these lyrics for us and give us an opinion?' So you take the paper and look over it. You think the song is great!"

"It is great." Shoyo interrupts. After he says that he looks up embarrassed "Ah! Sorry I didn't mean to say that outloud!"

Takeda gives out a small huff of laughter before continuing, "So you like the song, how much would it take for you to take that paper, and rip it to shreds?"

Shoyo looks shocked for a second before he finally finds his voice to speak. "I wouldn't tear it up! You couldn't pay me enough to tear it up.

"And why is that?"

"Because it's not mine! And they worked hard on it!"

"You forgot one thing."

"hm?"

"It's also art. If someone handed you a painting would you tear that up?"

"Of course not!"

Takeda sat up straighter, "Well think about this. You are art. Your body, your mind, your thoughts, it's all art. Would you let anyone tear you up? Why would you let yourself do that as well?"

"I… I'm not art." Shoyo said while looking down.

"Why do you think that?"

"I don't know, I'm just not."

"I bet other people think differently about you though."

Shoyo looked up at Takeda, who had a genuine smile on his face. "Sorry if I got poetic during that, but Shoyo I want you to realize that you are important. You might not think so now but I know you have someone in your life that you make happy with just your presence. Please don't let yourself get so far down that you would want to destroy everything that you've worked on so far in life to get where you are."

Before Shoyo could reply Takeda stood up and opened the door for him. "We should get back so we can get on with class."

"Mm."

He followed Takeda back to the classroom. Once he was there he was instructed to find a book and read quietly. Before he knew it the class was being taken back to the rooms for a break. He stopped by Takeda for a second and let out a quiet "Thank you" before following the rest of the class.

"I really didn't expect the teacher to say anything like that… I'm thankful for his kind words but I, I am not art." Shoyo thought. However, he did have a small smile on his face. Thinking of how wonderful the people have been towards him so far, he kind of hoped his entire stay would be this positive.
