Shorter then normal, I know. I didn't want too much to be in this chapter or It would be like, 900000 words long, AND THEN, I forgot to add the scene change lines, jeeezz! And, to top it all off, I'm in college for culinary arts, YAY schoool... .

"Why don't you tell me about your dad, Matt?"
"What's there to tell? He liked sneaking into my room and raping me."
"There has to be more then that." I shrug. I don't really care to tell anyone about that yet.
"What's his name?"
"Andrew." Janet scribbles on her page. Longer then before, and I lose interest.
"Matt?" I turn to look at her. She can see it in my eyes.
"That's all, I guess." She says after a minute. I get up and leave, a whole fifteen minutes sooner then I should. I walk back to the room that I don't share. Unlike the rest of the kids here. I'm specially, and don't need to share, because it's not actually better for me. Before I have a chance to do anything, my ears pick something up from down the hall. Music. I turn and follow the sound. It gets louder as I get closer to the TV area. I peak around the corner, and watch as a group of about 15 kids dance to the radio. I don't fit in here, either. Figure that one out. I watch them for a few minutes, then go back to my room. I crawl into bed, and lay on top of the covers.
Today is different. I haven't seen Janet since she kicked me out fifteen minutes early. It's been almost three weeks. I've spent three weeks in my room. Alone. And now I've had enough. I wait for my usual time with her, of course. I push the door open, and she jumps.
"I'm not here to play games. Help me deal with my shit, or let me go home." She seems scared. She stutters when she talks.
"Uhm..s-sit down, Matt." I don't move, I just stare at her.
"Why are you so angry?" My eyebrow shoots up.
"So now you want to know?"
"It's my job, isn't?"
"Where the hell have you been for the last three weeks? On vacation?"
"Yamato.."
"I'm here to get help, so I don't hurt T.K or myself anymore. You're not helping anymore. I want to go." Janet says nothing. I don't know what she's supposed to say. I move to my 'throne' and sit. I take a mental breath. Janet's eyes are down. She's not writing, not looking at anything, just down.
"You know, what if T.K came to visit?" I shrug.
"That's okay, I guess..."
"Someone else, too?" My tone must have given it away. I just shrug.
"Your wolf?" My eyes lock on hers, and she looks away almost immediately.
"Bring them. We're here to help you get better."
"I can't call..." I mumble.
"I'll call. What's his name? And the number." I chew on my lip. Then give her my brother's name and number. Janet gets up and walks towards the door.
"Stay here." She tells me. I watch as she leaves the room and shuts the door behind her. My eyes drift around the room and I can't help but regret what I did. What if my parents come, too? That would just be...I sigh, and my hands come up to my face. What did I do? It feels like forever, and then the door opens.
"Your brother, and Baby will be here tomorrow with Vincent." She says as she walks by me. I look up.
"No parents?"
"No, just Vincent. Whose Vincent?"
"Uhm..My social worker, I guess." I glance at the clock, and realise my hour is up.
"Tomorrow, Matt. Be here by 11." I nod and get up. I don't want 11 to come, ever.
When I don't show up at 11, Janet comes to get me.
"Yamato, get up!" She snaps. I jerk into a sitting position, eye wide.
"Get dressed!" I watch her leave, confused, and then it dawns on me that T.K is probably here. I jump up and throw the first things I find on. I race out of the room, and nearly smack into Janet. She just turns around and starts walking in the direction of her office. I follow her.
"Is he mad?"
"I don't know." I stay quiet as I think about this. We walk past Janet's office.
"Baby hasn't actually been cleared to come inside yet,"
"I get to go outside, finally?"
"Nope, you have to stand at an open window." I can hear the teasing tone in her voice, but it scares me just the same. As we get towards the doors I remember coming into, my stomach flips. What if he is mad? She pushes them open, and before I even have a chance to look around, I'm falling through the air, and my head hits the floor.
