The Meaning of Beautiful

By: Gypsy Tollamer



"Daddy." Quatre pleaded 'please don't leave me here by myself. I don't wanna be here. I promise I'll eat and I won't throw it up. You can even ground me I don't care just Don't leave me here!"

"Quatre." his mother said ruffling his hair. "You're sick. and We can't help you anymore."

"Mom." Quatre said.

"No." Quatre's Father said. 'You're sick and you're staying."

Suddenly a very pretty nurse with 2 blonde twisted braids came up.

"Mr and Mrs. Winner?" she asked. 'I'm Sally. I'm a nurse here and I'm head nurse for your son's room. I'll be making sure he eats and gains weight. I'll also make sure he gets to his group meetings and his therapy appointments."

"Hello Sally." Mr Winner said. "This is my son Quatre."

"Well follow me Quatre. You'll want to get slightly settled before group." she said taking Quatre's suitcase from his father. She began to walk down the hall and Quatre's parents walked down the hall with Quatre between them. In order to stop him from running if he got any ideas. Sally turned around.

"Quatre kiss your parents good bye now." she said.

'Aren't we going to see where he's staying?" Mrs Winner asked.

" You can't help him from here on out. You can visit him and look around on visiting days but you can't follow him today." she said.

Quatre was shocked.. Not only was he gonna have to stay in this awful place but he had to go alone? This was a total nightmare. Quatre didn't move.

"Bye. Honey." his mother said handing him his other suitcase. "We'll see you on Saturday."

"Don't leave me here please!" Quatre said as his parents each kissed his forhead. "I don't wanna stay."

"You're going to." Mr. Winner said pushing Quatre towards Sally and ushering his wife out the door. Quatre didn't budge.

"Quatre... Come on." Sally said. Quatre just stared at her.

She then walked up to him and grabbed his arm.

"I'll pull you down the hall myself, or you can do it willingly. You're roommate will respect you more if you walk in yourself." she said.

"Room mate?" Quatre asked. 'I don't want one."

"Well you're going to have one. Everyone does." she said. Quatre sighed and resigned to his fate walking after her. She stopped infront of room 203..

'this is going to be your room." she said. Quatre could see his name on a orange leaf taped on the door. The other leaf said DUO...

'You're room mate made the leaf for you. He wanted to make you feel welcome." she said. Sally then walked in. Quatre didn't budge though...

"Is he here Sally?" Duo asked hopping off the bed. 'Is he here yet?"

"yes dear he's out side the door." she said. "don't scare him though."

Duo waited in anticipated...... What was his new room mate like?
