[October Cursay]

October didn't know how much of this she could take. It was supposed to be a good day, filled with playing around and hanging with Alec, but then he blew it all hp with his sudden assault. But she didn't have it in her to be mad, and some reason she couldnt blame him, not even a little.
But damn did she cry. She pulled her knees up to her chest and wrapped her freem arm around them, the other still laid in Alec's grip. October didn't do well when she was screamed at or when the situation got sticky. The other time bad stuff had happened it had been on a much smaller scale. But this was a tad bit over her limit.
October looked up when one of the people came up to her trying to get her to explain the situation. Of course the others had already explained it more than enough, but they needed it from someone closer. Little did they know she didn't speak. They asked her but she stared at them blankly until finally they realized she might be from the asylum as well.
October was left alone once more with her unconscious companion. For the rest of the ride she sat with her head in her knees and tears. When they arrived to the asylum she was taken along with Alex to his room in which she had been in before. She looked about, putting her knuckle in her mouth to chew away her anxiety. Her cheeks were wet with tears as she sat on the floor as Alex woke up.
She looked at the floor, unsure of what to do.

[Alec M'Crae]

At least October was still here for him when everyone else was to scared to even make eye contact with him. Alec looked at October, unable to read her emotions. Was she scared of him too? He hoped not. The boy reached his hand out to October, offering to let her sit on his bed with him. He heard voices outside, and they sounded angry and confused. It scared Alec, but he tried not to panic. Suddenly, Bloo appeared again in the corner of his room, his expression still the same- angry. The beast seemed to look bigger and more fierce than before too. Alec seemed to be listening to what Bloo was saying to him, and Alec ended up reaching for a hardcover book. Seconds later, a nurse opened the door to his room, and without even being able to speak, the book Alec was holding was whipped right in her face.
"Alec!" The nurse wailed, covering his bloody nose. "Someone grab him or something!" The nurse rushed to the bathroom down the hall while two others pinned Alec to the wall, injecting a strong depressant into his blood. He wouldn't pass out, but he became extremely lazy and tired. Setting him on the bed, yet looked at October. "It would be best for you to leave. He's becoming dangerous."

[October Cursay]

October knew that Alec wouldn't hurt her. No matter what that beastly friend told him she knew he wouldn't. So why be afraid of somehing you know couldnt hurt you? She didn't want to be afraid either, that would be silly.
She extended her hand until he suddenly stilled, his eyes unfocused as he watxhed something unseen to her eyes and suddenly she knew. Her eyes widened and she backed away as the door slowly opened and Alec had a book in his hands. She crawled beneath the bed as the nurse was whacked in the face with it and more nurses poured in to give Alex more of that medicine. She pulled back when one of the nurses instructed her about leaving. She shook her head and slowly crawled back out, taking a spot on the bed behind Alec and holding his wrists with her own frail hands. If it came to it, she could try to stop him next time.

[Alec M'Crae]

Alec was hunched over on his bed, a look in his eyes as if he just watched someone being slaughtered alive. Tears were welling up in them and eventually ran down his cheeks. He felt like a monster. Alec was known her for being the friendliest patient here. Everyone loved him, but he wasn't sure of that anymore. Suddenly Alec hugged October tight and cried into her shoulder. He didn't want to hurt people anymore, but he felt like he had no choice. The boy was even more terrified about what they would do with him, because gentle patients are on this level, and he wasn't gentle anymore. Nurses were arguing outside about him, and even though he couldn't understand it, he heard is name so it must be about him.
"She's what?!"
"Alec killed her. She suffered from severe brain damage and didn't last long once she got to the hospital."
"I'm sure he didn't mean to-"
"He threw a book at Anna just two minutes ago! "
"Maybe it's his schizophrenia. It has to be."
"We need to move him to a more secure area."
"He'll get scared!"
"So what, we should leave him up here and let him hurt everyone? Until we figure out why he's becoming so violent he needs to be isolated for everyone's safety."

[October Cursay]

She switched her holding his wrists to hugging him in comfort, his arms wrapped about her, afraid to lose his friend. She laid a hand on his head, petting his head with care and having her other arm draped around him. October listened to the nurses outside, curious about what they would do. Would they make her leave? The police might eventually come get her, but until then she had nowhere else to go.
She thought about for awhile, wondering about if she should just stay here with him again like she did before. October didn't mind staying with him, especially now when he would need her more than ever.
Her blue eyes looked at the bed, the thin sheet laying there giving her an idea. She unhooked one of her arms and picked up the sheet, pulling it out and laying it on top of their heads like a tent. She pinned one end to either side of the bedposts and looked around them and their new fort. Now the nurses wouldn't see them and cause them anymore strife.

[Alec M'Crae]

Alec felt a light shadow overcast him and October, at first he hugged her tighter, thinking it was a nurse or police officer here to take him or October away and he wouldn't want that. But than he watched her fix the sheets to sit on their heads. She made a fort! Alec sat strait, legs crossed and looking around him. He felt very safe underneath the sheets, just him and October. This light barrier made sure no one could see them and they couldn't see out of it either. Now he wouldn't know what was going on outside and it helped him ignore the argument everyone outside his room seemed to be heavily engaged in.
