Dr McQuail pushed a pad of paper towards Johnathan.
"This is going to be your outlet from now on Johnathan. You are to jot down anything that comes into your mind in here. It can be anything you desire, for example drawings, poems, anything you want to just let it out onto the paper." Johnathan smirked down at the paper.
"Could I borrow a pen?" He asked innocently, Sock blinked in surprise.
"Johnathan what the hell (excuse the pun) are you doing? he's a shrink don't do what he says!"
McQuail beamed and handed Johnathan a fountain pen, it was dark brown in color and looked like it was well looked after.
The blond simply took the pen ripped off the cap and on the first page in large bold writing scribbled down the words:
"THIS IS LAME!" He then grinned down at his handy work before twizzling the pad round so that the dr could see what he had written. McQuail smirked as he read the writing.
"If that is how you express yourself to help you get better then I should not be one to judge!" He said plainly before signaling the doctor behind them to come over. She did as she was asked,
"Could you please take Mr Combs to his first group session." She nodded and pulled Johnathan up by his arm. Dr McQuail rolled his fingers with a wide smile across his face in a signal of goodbye that made him look rather creepy as Johnathan was dragged away by a firm grip on his arm.
Sock scooted after him clinging tightly to Johnathan's arms with a grip that would have made the female Dr on Johnathan's other arm jealous.
As before they were lead along corridor after corridor until they came across another door, this time the metal door screwed onto it was on that said 'Group Therapy'.
Stepping inside the Female Doctor dragged Johnathan inside with her. The room was medium sized with around 4-5 fold out chairs placed in a circle. Two of the chairs had already been filled by a girl with dark skin and purple hair that was in a untidy bun with two similar sized bangs hanging out at the front and a boy with light skin and brown hair that flicked upward in a quiff. Johnathan went over and sat down on one of the chairs opposite both of them after receiving a shifty look from the female doctor.
Both of them looked up at him as he sat down. The girl didn't give him so much as a sideways glance after that but the boy continued to glare at the blond. Sock glanced between them and a huge mischievous smirk spread across his features.
Innocently, he crept over to the brown haired boy and started to make horrendous faces at him while yelling insults of which he exploded into a loud "OOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHH" after each one was said. Johnathan turned away sharply, biting his lip hard and pinching his hand even harder to stop himself from bursting out laughing.
The brown haired boy gave Johnathan a confused/disgusted look completely oblivious to Sock's antics. At that moment the door re opened and another doctor walked in dragging along a girl with him. She shrugged her arm out of his grip as soon a they were inside and made her way over to the circle, plopping herself down next to Johnathan.
Her hair was so long that she had to flick it out of her way before sitting down to avoid sitting on it. Unlike the other two had she didn't seem to acknowledge Johnathan at all; instead she seemed more focused on a spot just above the brown haired boys head where sock was floating upside down in front of him still pulling faces.
Johnathan started to question this in his mind glancing between her and Sock trying not to look like he was staring.
After a few moments more when Sock had gotten bored and went to sit cross legged on the floor next to Johnathan and the blond girls eyes had moved from there spot on the wall just above the brown haired boy's head to her lap that a female Dr walked into the room. She looked very young due to her winged eyeliner and highlighted red hair.
She walked through the circle smiling softly at each person as she past them and lowered herself onto the last remaining seat.
She plucked a clip board from the bag she was holding and clicked the top on a pen that had been slotted into its side.
"Good day everyone, how are we all today?" she said in a cheery melodic voice that seemed so sugar coated it was sickly.
The people in the circle (minus Johnathan) all murmured a "Fine" or a "Ok".
"Good!" she chirped glancing toward Johnathan, "So as I am sure you have all noticed, we have someone new joining us today. Could you tell us your name?" she gazed at Johnathan with large blue eyes expectantly.
Johnathan sighed seeing no other choice but to answer her question.
"Johnathan." he lowed in a monotone.
"Well that is a lovely name; now we are going to go around the circle say our names and why we are here so that Johnathan can get to know everyone."
She then glanced to the brown haired boy and signaled for him to start.
He rolled his eyes, "My names Zack Melto and I'm not going to tell you why I am here because it is none of your dam business." He then looked to the purple haired girl next to him.
"Hey, just call me lil because I hate my first name. I'm here because I talk to someone no one else can see, she is real, just only I can see her."
Then they moved onto the blond haired girl, "Nia," she said quickly before continuing,
"I 'apparently', and that's the key word with this, 'apparently' hallucinate seeing ghosts because my mind cannot handle the idea of death. My fokes dragged me here for help I don't need." she said spitting out each work like it was poison in her mouth.
Her folded arms unfolded just after she had finished her sentence and she breathed a deep sigh, "Sorry your new so you don't get when I'm having a bad day. I'm normally bearable conversation wise." she joked giving Johnathan a half lidded smirk.
He smirked back she seemed to be a fairly normal teen despite what she had described being here for.
Maybe it wouldn't be that bad here, he just had to lay low with Sock for a while to convince these obnoxious doctors that he was fine mentally and it was probably a teenager thing.
