Furthest Thing Chapter 2

Name of Chapter: The Pills

Allison's head shot up to what Scott said. Ms. Morel looked to Allison. "Some thing wrong, Allison?" Allison shook her head and looked towards Scott. She turned her attention back to Scott. "Where did you see these glowing eyes?" She asked. Scott scratched the back of his head uncomfortably as people stared at him. "Um…. In my dreams." He said. She nodded while writing all the information down. She looked to Stiles and smiled. "Stiles how have you been?" Stiles gave a glance towards Lydia and smirked before turning back to Ms. Morel. Scott looked suspiciously at the two as Lydia blushed. "I'm great." He responded and she nodded. "Any of the nightmares lately?" She asked and Stiles looked at Lydia once again. "Nope. You can say I found myself a security blanket." Scott tried to piece together this information but got nothing. Ms Morel moved to Lydia. "Lydia how have you been? Have you been keeping track of what you eat?" Lydia tucked a piece of hair behind her hair and nodded. "Yes. Some one has been helping me with that." She looked at Stiles and smiled. "Oh yeah? And who might that be?" Scott watched Ms. Morel as she looked at Stiles. "Allison." Lydia said. Allison's head shot up. "What? Oh yeah I have."

The session was over and people began to stand. Scott stood there with Stiles as Allison came over with Lydia in tow. "Do you guys want to go to the game room?" She asked. Stiles nodded and nudged Scott. "Wanna come?" Scott shrugged. They started walking to the game room. Stiles and Lydia stood behind Scott and Allison. Scott's head shot up from the sound of some thing. 'Were coming' "Did you hear that?" He asked. He heard it again. The look on Allison's face. It was as if she had heard it to. "No." She continued walking at a faster pace. When they walked in through the double doors, Allison grabbed Scott's hand. "C'mon let's play foosball." She went to one side and Scott went to the other. "So…. What's you opinion on the boys here?" He asked. He tried desperately to catch up with Allison. They had just started and she already had three. "I could just kill them some times. Just kill em', kill em, kill em'." She rolled one of the sticks with a little more force that necessary, making the ball go into his hole. He sat the ball back on the table. "Well I'm a nice guy. Hopefully you don't pound my face in." He joked.

She giggled a little before returning serious. "Maybe." She scored once again. "I won." She said and Scott nodded. "I can see that. So what do you normally do around here?" Allison shrugged. "Eat, sleep, and read." Scott sighed. This place was boring, but he'd have to get used to it. He tilted his head at Allison as she tapped her finger on the foosball table. She reached in her mouth and pulled out a piece of gum and stuck it on the back of her neck. She did that a lot, he noticed.

And the tapping. Scott thought back at breakfast, how she tapped her nail on the table. And how she tapped her foot on the tiled floor back at the session. "Why do you tap so much?" He suddenly asked. She raised her eyebrows but answered. "It's a strategy my therapist taught my, to help me stay calm." Scott stitched his brow together and tilted his head. "The sound. Helps me. I don't know how but it just does. Scott nodded. He heard Allison yawn. "I'm gonna go take a nap before lunch. See ya." She did a slight wave before walking off. Stiles came over to him. "Ready to go?" He asked. Scott nodded before yawning himself. "Where's Lydia?"

"She left a couple of minutes ago."

Scott took a half hour nap before Stiles woke him for lunch. Scott remembered his way to the lunch room, and they both walked together instead of Scott following Stiles. Once again they were stopped by Isaac. But this time it was Scott. "Excuse you." He said. He glanced towards Stiles who looked back with wide eyes. "What?" Issac asked. He was a little taken back that some one had stood up to him besides Allison. "Did I stutter? Do you need me to annunciate more clearly?" Isaac looked at Stiles who was watching the scene in complete shock. Isaac grabbed Scott by the shirt and pinned him against the wall. Stiles grabbed Isaac's arm. "Stop don't hurt him. He didn't know, he's new." Stiles tried. But to Stiles and Scott's amazement Scott pushed Isaac, making him fall to the floor. Scott smirked and brushed the imaginary dust off his shirt. "Word of advice Isaac. Don't touch me." He grabbed Stiles and they continued walking to the lunch room. All through lunch Stiles talked about the incident. He got another smile from Allison. And yes, he was counting.

When the two of them got back to their room Stiles handed Scott a package with two bottles of pills in it. "Here." He said. Scott stared down at the plastic bag in his hands. "What are these for" He asked. "There sleeping pills. One bottle to help you go to sleep and one to help you stay asleep." Scott snorted at this. "I don't need sleeping pills. I went to bed just fine yesterday." Stiles crashed on his bed and closed his eyes. "Trust me, in this place, you'll need them." Scott tilted his head a little in confusion. "People kill themselves almost every night in this place. And trust me; you do not want to hear it." Scott swallowed nervously at this information.

A couple of hours later and Scott thought he was going to die of boredom. He stared up at the dark ceiling then looked over at Stiles who was sleeping peacefully. They had eaten dinner an hour ago and he had absolutely nothing to do. He then remembered some thing he brought with him from home. He looked for him pants from the other night and found them. In his back pocket was his headphones and MP3 player. He looked up at the ceiling. "Thank you Jesus." He got back in bed and turned on the electronic. The headphones were so loud, too loud. But that's how he liked it.

'Lately I've been, I've been losing sleep,' The song started. He loved this song. He turned on his side and listened to every thing on his playlist before he finally fell asleep.

Sorry this chapter was short but I ran out of ideas. And for those who read Never Again I have writers block. If you ideas PM me. And the song in this chapter is called Counting Stars by One republic. Give it a listen.
