Author's Note: Ok I mainly going to apologise for Charlie in this chapter he's not very nice but he's going to get better. Also warning there is a bit of slash so if you don't like it then please don't complain but there won't be too much as this is not a romance fic.
Thanks to xxMD1xx for defining the disorders and everyone for reviewing!
I don't own Mighty Ducks and I'd like to say again that my characters are the extremes and may not be real representations of people.
Life in a Loony Bin
Dwayne's POV
This place was a lot nicer than my last ward and the people here were a lot more friendly, unlike my last ward there was such thing as privacy. Within week you had known everything about everyone, it was as bad as a school for gossip, people loved to talk. After the group we all had headed off in out own directions Adam, Guy and I headed out to the garden. It was really nice, we sat on the benches it actually gave us some time to get to know each other.
It was tea in an hour and most of the patients were in the rec room, we had moved in from the garden. It was not that nice there was a TV with a plastic screen in front which meant we were never allowed to loose the remote, and we had already lost it about 8 times and we had only been here a week. There were some board games that were missing most of their pieces and a game of Velcro darts that no one ever wanted to use although I'm sure I saw Portman attempt to eat it.
The staff hated taking us or meals because it was separate to the rest of the building so they had to escort us across the grounds making sure we didn't run in front of a car or run away. Then they had to argue with us about what different people wanted to eat, trying to get Averman awake enough to eat (he spent half his time too drugged up to do anything, either that or he was screaming). The trying to get Guy to eat and Portman to make up his mind, Julie was also a problem as she was convinced that everything had germs on everything and had to wear gloves and inspect everything.
Finally the hour came and Dr Bombay and Sister Heather escorted us across the grounds to cafeteria. As we were walking across a car door slammed which caused Averman to start screaming, you know I'm not sure if its his schizophrenia or if he just has a nervous disposition, anyway then it set Ken's tourettes off and he started swearing and kicking at Russ. I'm quite glad that we didn't have to walk down a street it's would be so embarrassing if the kicked off in the middle of the street.
We finally arrived at the dining hall I sat down between Guy and Dean. Sister Heather took our order telling them to the people at the counter they didn't trust us to go up with the rest of the patients around. I think they thought we'd cause problems, plus apparently we made some of the other patients un comfortable. Our ward was separated from the rest as we often stayed longer than them and it was more like a home. We were at the back of the grounds and the ward looked more like a house that part of the hospital. We had a field behind us and you had to walk along the drive and through a guinnel to get there but it meant we could often do games.
Eventually the food arrived and Portman hovered his down I had never seen a guy eat so quickly. I looked at Guy he was playing with his food I knew that he wasn't going to eat it he never did. Adam was attempting to eat his but Charlie was writing on the white board that he gave Adam to carry around with him so that he could communicate. He wore it round hid neck as a necklace. I looked at Adam's sign – 'Ready for a quickie' it read, I snorted.
"Are you sure?" Julie asked moving her food around looking for and fungus she slowly put the food into her mouth chewing slowly and carefully as if testing. She nodded and continued to eat the rest. Bombay smiled happy he then leaned over to Guy.
"You now you have to eat something you can't go with out eating anything or you'll have to go back into isolation." Bombay explained. This happened every meal Guy would refuse to eat staring down at his plate then Bombay would threaten to put him in isolation and Guy would eat just enough to please them. Afterwards he was not allowed to be alone until the doctors were sure he wouldn't throw up.
We finally finished and then got dragged all the way back to the ward, between 6 and 10 we were allowed to do what we wanted and between 10 and 11 we had to get ready for bed – the boys bathroom had been divided into two it was more cramped but they had to do it to fit us all in. We only got 10 minutes in the bathroom each so you had to learn to be quick.
As it was Friday night we were allowed to watch a movie but we had to agree this often took longer than the movie itself.
"Right!" Sister Heat yelled, "What do you want to watch? The choice is Terminator, Cheaper by the Dozen or Carebears." The votes were handed in and counted and Dr Bombay gave the announcement.
"And the winner is ……. Carebears," he announced Portman and Fulton high fived. I somehow think that these votes are rigged.
Guy's POV
'Carebears? Why the hell do we want to watch Carebears? They were worried that the depressives would become depressed with the others they should see how we are watching stupid bears dance around. I turn to Adam to see what he thinks and I'm ashamed to see that he seems glad of the choice, he's not exactly smiling but he's giving off good vibes.
"Hey Dwayne want a game of Monopoly?" I asked it was the only game that had enough pieces to play, as all of the games were donations form other wards. He nodded and we took it to another room.
"So how do you play?" he asked I looked at him disbelievingly. I couldn't believe that this boy had never played monopoly. I went onto explain the rules to him stopping every three seconds to answer his questions.
Charlie's POV
I don't know why I'm in this stupid place what's wrong with being a little self-confident. The Carebears start I don't particularly like Carebears but I knew it would get rid of a few people so I could talk to Adam. After Guy and Dwayne leave to play monopoly I go and sit next to Adam, I smile at him and he smiles nervously back I cant tell he's unnerved by me, most people are, I would probably make more friends if I stopped making moves on them. I like Adam he's almost as attractive as me. Almost. I put my hand on his knee he moves along away from me. I don't get it how can people turn me down I'm good looking and I have a nice personality. So ok sometimes I'm a little big headed but it's nothing compared to Luis. I touch his back and he glares at me I know he's just playing hard to get. I know his kind. I've slept with his kind. I move my mouth next to his ear.
"You know you want me," I whispered, he stands up to leave the room.
"Where are you going Adam?" Bombay asked, Adam held out his board and wrote to get ready for bed, Bombay looked a bit apprehensive but nodded him on anyway. Adam Exited the room and everyone went back to watching the film.
I left it a good 10 minutes before asking to go to the toilet; I don't think Bombay believed me all this meant was that I would have to be quick. I walked up to Adam's room knocking on the door as I entered; Adam was sat on the bottom bunk bed. Their room was slightly bigger than ours but they had three people and there was only Luis and I in ours. He glared at me I know he didn't trust me, I think the main reason was that he knew that he couldn't scream for help if he ever needed it. But I wasn't going to hurt him I never wanted to hurt anyone.
I walked over to the bed he had his headphones around his neck and looked at me all of a sudden I had the feeling that he could completely kick my arse if he wanted to.
"I know we got off to a bad start but I really do like you," I said trying to persuade him I knew he probably wouldn't give any but I had to have one last go. I leaned over and pressed my lips onto his. He pushed my away with a great force. I nodded I knew I didn't want to but I knew when I was defeated.
"WHAT THE HELL…"
