Chapter Two: Hopeless
Relena's
P.O.V.
I approached
the door with little hope for my job or him. I hoped that small bit would grow
when I met him.
As I
approached the desk I saw his eyes closed. 'He's beautiful… like an angel. Is
this the one I'm supposed to help?' Almost as if to answer my question he
opened his eyes slowly. When I gazed into them I knew he was definitely the
one. His eyes held a great intensity in them but with that intensity there was
a glint of evil, like he was possessed. I knew that everyone had his or her
Demons to fight but he must've had a few extras. I flinched as he looked up at
me 'whoops not a good first impression and with him that might be the last'.
" He
Hello…" I said my words sounding timid. He continued looking at me as if
he were going to pounce on me any minute. "My name is Dr. Shultz I'm your
new Psychiatrist." I continued thinking ' Wonder what happened to the
others or maybe I didn't want to know'. He continued not to move. He just sat there and I could swear that
his eyes were saying 'and?'.
I set my
briefcase down and straightened my glasses again (a habit of mine when I'm
nervous).
Never
loosing eye contact he stood up. It was pretty clever how I didn't even know he
was so close until his rough hands touched my neck . Wrapping them around until
he was choking me. Startled very much I reached up and tried to pry them off
but without success I started to think I was actually going to die! 'What did I
come here for I knew this was hopeless. Is this what I wanted. *No*I thought
,Trying to think of something to do. Then it hit me 'The note' Maybe that's why
the blonde guy told me to give it to him. (A.N.-You guys know this is all
happening in slow motion right?) I let go of his arms and slid the not out of
my Blouse. When I handed it to him he let go and took it raising an eyebrow
figuring I wasn't going to do anything anyway. While he read the note I slowly
slid down the wall trying to feel the air return to my burning lungs.
I looked up
and saw him looking down at me. I gulped but tried straighten myself up so I
wouldn't look as frightened as I was. He continued to look at me before finally
putting his hand out which I guessed was to help me up. I put my hand in his
noticing how much smaller mines was all while he helped me up. As soon as I was
up he let go like he was holding something hot. His hand was so cold...
Turning
around he sat down on top of the table and finally spoke." You should
go... You can't help me." he said it roughly but when he
turned around and had a sad look in his eyes and right then the little hope I
had went tumbling out the window. I turned around putting my head up
against the door. I put the code in and walked out the door with my
shoulders sinking.
' He's right
I can't help him what was I thinking.' I walked down the long flight of stairs
till I reached the two waiting gaurds.
"Done?"
the one with black hair asked And in reply I nodded slowly. I felt as if I
would break down then and there "I'm a complete idiot. Why did I take this
job, I can't help him I've never seen someone so tormented in my life...'
When we came
to the "Quatre" again he looked up and simply smiled at me. I looked
back at him with sadness still clouding my eyes but he continued to smile.
Despite the fact that I felt so depressed That simple smile
brightened my day.
As we
reached the next door I felt like I couldn't face the next one. I felt as if I
had let him down. I turned my head the minute I saw him. well you think I would
of learned from the the first time or maybe I just wasn't paying attention
cause the second I stepped in front of his cell door he grabbed my arm and
pulled me towards the bars again. I braced myself for impact but it never came
I looked and he had stopped just before I hit them.
" If I
didn't know any better I'd say you were trying to avoid me." He smirked.
"Well...I" I started but was quickly interrupted." au.. No
excuses just listen." I looked at him and waited. " How did you
do?" he asked " I di.." I started again but was interrupted
again " au... haven't you learned anything yet? When I ask you a question
it doesn't mean for you to answer les I say so... kay?" He flashed me a
lopsided grin.
"
You did fine.." he said " I looked back up and said "bu.."
he put his hand over my mouth." There you go again!... I didn't tell ya to
talk yet" I looked at him blankly but continued to listen. "
Believe me you did fine. I've seen them go in and come out on stretchers and
there ain't a thing this so called facility can do about it accept tell them
the dangers of it. Now if you can walk in here with your head high after hearing
what he did to all those people you've either got guts, heart, or your just
plain stupid." he looked at her. " I vote for heart." he
said as I looked up " I vote for just plain stupid." the guard behind
me with black hair laughed. "Like somebody asked you." he looked up
and flicked out his middle finger. " Go on I believe you can do it. Even
if that Jackass over there doesn't." He gave a serious looked then smiled
and in reply I smiled back. At that moment I could have jumped for joy,
But I simply looked at him and said "Thank you." And as soon as I
said that he let go and nodded. as I walked away filled with new hope I looked
back at him and he patted his chest right over his 'heart'.
Walking out
of that facility I felt as if I could skip and do cartwheels. 'Maybe this visit
wasn't a failure after all it's only the beginning...'
