Into the Mind and the Heart(less) Ch.2
Myde didn't know how many hours passed but his head turned toward the sound of the opening door and heard the chains being removed from his wrists and forced him up and out of the door. He shivered as a cold draft passed through the hallway as he stumbled over a piece of…something. "You gonna to behave brat? I can't believe I have to see you again, when I clearly said I didn't want to see you." A familiar voice snapped and untied the blindfold once they were outside the doors leading into the Wing and Myde blinked a few times. "Looks like you missed dinner. Too bad. Maybe next time you'll take care to follow the rules. Have fun." She smirked and shoved him inside, causing him to stumble and nearly hit the corner of the desk. He looked at the ground and made his way back to his bedroom, only looking up when he sees his dolphin sitting on his bed. He runs to it and immediately starts crying again as he curls up under the blankets with his dolphin close to his body, dark thoughts swirling in his head.
When the other boys came back, Sora immediately made a beeline for his shared room, letting out a sigh of relief when he sees a bump under the blankets. He's okay. I got worried for a bit when his dolphin came back but not him. He thinks happily and goes to change into his pajamas. Be careful idiot. We don't know his mental state and he easily could snap at any moment. Therefore you're here, because you jump to conclusions before seeing the full picture. Sora scowled and finished getting dressed. "Yeah well, the name calling is not necessary. Anyway, I think he's lonely and wants a friend." He said with finality and reached into his bag to pull out a small roll and a thing of juice he snagged from dinner and sat it on Myde's bedside table as he walked out for evening group.
Myde stirred and peeked out from the blankets once Sora left and eyed the small snack left behind, immediately grabbing it and stashing it in a shirt, tearing off a small piece of the bread and savored having a little something in his stomach. That boy wants to be my…friend? But why? I'm not anyone special… I would just get in the way… More tears welled up but he refused to let them fall this time as he got up to use the restroom then curled back into the bed, listening to the voices get louder as they walked the halls then doors closing and locks being fastened. He eyed Sora climbing into bed and once he made sure that the other boy was asleep, he climbed out of his and crept over to the door and tried to open it, to no avail. "The doors locked, you know. They don't unlock them until morning and if you do manage to bypass the locks, there is an orderly that patrols the halls regularly, so you might as well get back in bed." Myde turned and saw Sora siting up but his eyes were tinged with yellow and his aura was more…threatening. "Oh uhh. I'm Myde and you must be Sora yes?"
'Sora' only stared at him and let out a dark smirk. "You could say that. Now listen and heed well because what I have to say is crucial. You need to watch your step around here and be mindful on who you interact with. That blonde nurse is Arlene and she is a sadistic bitch. She doesn't care who she hurts if she gets a regular paycheck. She is best friends with Laur…whatever his name is, the pink haired male who works at the desk. Dr. Evan is the head psychiatrist who has a few screws loose and works closely with his assistant Ienzo. Wherever one is, the other is not far behind so keep that in mind. Dilan and Al…whatever, are the muscle and they deal with the unruly patients. They use any means necessary to subdue the patients, although Aeleus is a tad bit more…. nicer in his way of doing things. Now Braig is the full time orderly in our wing and every morning does periodic searches. He says a lot of things but don't take them to heart. Are you getting what I'm saying so far?"
Myde was listening to the explanation and taking mental notes, nodding periodically. "Yes. So out of everyone, Braig would be my best bet to go to about any issues, right?" At the nod, Myde grins and climbs back into bed and hugs his dolphin close. "That really does help. Thank you." 'Sora' grunted and laid back down, but a ghost of a smile was seen on his face. "Don't mention it kid. Now let's get some shut eye." As snores filled the room, Myde soon allowed himself to fall soundly asleep.
The next morning, Myde was already up and finished his roll and juice from last night and heard the locks being undone and the door opens to reveal Braig standing there with his arms crossed. "It's breakfast time. Yours is at the desk since you cannot leave the ward yet." Myde looked at the scarred male and nodded, grabbing his dolphin again and followed the older male to the Day Room where he saw the other boys waiting by the door to leave and grabbed his box and sat curled up on the couch, watching the others leave the ward before opening up his box and eyeing the contents, making the split decision to stash the apple for later and poked around at the food. "Why aren't you eating brat? Hospital food too poor for you? Bet you're a vegan huh?" Myde scowled and took a single bite of potatoes before pushing the container away and started on the juice before curling back up with his dolphin and stared at the wall, carefully hiding his emotions behind a blank face, unaware of the dark grin gracing Lauriam's face and sent out a group text to a select few of the hospital staff.
Whoo boy. Things are starting to heat up but no romance as of now. I wonder what they're planning…
