Hey. Here is chapter 5 of 'Sinister'.
"I know you've been lying to everyone about your past. I'm gonna find out the truth." Tee approached Ryan. She was two years older than him, but he was still at least two heads taller than her.
"I know all your secrets and that your brother isn't going to be there to protect you anymore, so I'd be very careful about making enemies." Ryan then left the room, Tee becoming scared, but determined to know the truth.
Two Weeks Later
It had now been two weeks since Johnny left to be in the army and he had been keeping in touch with the YP at TDG. Tee was becoming mire and more intrigued about Ryan and she tried to go up to him.
"Ryan!" she called. Ryan began walking faster up the stairs. Unfortunately, this made him trip over. He tried to get up but it was obvious to him that he had twisted his ankle, much to Tee's advantage.
"Just stop following me yeah!" He said to her, limping up the stairs.
"No. Firstly, you can't get yourself up the stairs without help and secondly, I'm not scared of you, threaten me all you want, I'm not going to back down." she said sternly. Ryan rolled his eyes as he let her help him up. They both went to Ryan's room and he lay down. She closed the door.
"You need to elevate that." Tee put some cushions under his ankle.
"Thank you." he replied, surprising Tee.
"So, tell me then." Tee crouched down on the floor.
"Tell you what."
"Why you've been lying. Why some people think you're a car thief and others think that your some sort of a beggar. And why you're so sweet one moment and the next you're so cold." she demanded. Ryan decided to tell her why he's in care to shut her up.
"Abusive dad and all." he answered briefly.
"That's it? Then why all the lies?" Tee chided, being interrupted by Ryan's scream of pain.
"Can you get me some pain killers?" he asked.
"Oh don't give me tha..." she stopped and nodded when she saw the look on his face. He was serious.
"We'll finish this later." she left the room, returning with a glass of water and some pain killers.
"Thanks."
"Being polite are we." she joked. Ryan knew that she wasn't going to leave, but he wasn't going to give in to her.
"So...err...how long have you been in care?" He asked her awkwardly.
"I thought you already knew after looking through my files." She joked. "Drunk abusive dad but loving mother. Was yours similar?"
"Minus the loving mum pretty much yeh."
"Ouch. So how did social services find out?"
"There's was an incident and I was in hospital. Questions were asked and then I ended up in care." Ryan began to feel like he trusted her so he kept telling her. "Can you pass me the glass of water?" Tee passed him the glass and was shocked. She saw scars on his wrists, obviously from self harming. She decided to pretend like she didn't see them. For now.
"Have you ever been fostered?"
"A few times." He replied, without giving too much detail. "You?"
"Same. It never worked out though. I prefer it here to be honest and I've been at the Dumping ground for all of my time in care."
"I've been to some pretty rough places. So bad that you couldn't handle it anymore. Been bullied so horrendously thay I've lost my home. This is the first time in ages that I've felt like home, so don't you dare tell anyone about what you've seen on my wrists." Tears were steaming down his cheeks , he was getting very angry.
"Why would I? You trust me right." She tried to calm him down.
"Get out. Leave me alone!" He shouted. Tee left the room and heard him sobbing. She felt ad for him, but she wanted to so some snooping to see if he lied or not.
"Tee, you're in charge. Mo's had an accident and me and Mike are taking him to the hospital" Mayli told her and she left with Mike and Mo. This was the perfect opportunity for the snooping. She logged on to the computer and went through Ryan's folder. He had told the truth about everything, but there was one main thing that he didn't mention.
"Oh my god"
