This is my first attempt at writing a horror/thriller story. I hope you enjoy reading it. This is not related to any movie or TV show, I wanted to try a different type of story with characters, I have made up.
Be careful of what you wish for
Megan was 17 years old, and her whole life basically sucked, well that is how she felt. Her Parents basically never talked to her unless they had to. They worked all hours of the day , and night. She knew they worked hard, but she would like to have some time with them, and it was rare she got that. She hated to go to school, she was picked on ever since the 3rd grade basically by the same group of people. The stuff they did to her was horrible, and she took it for years without saying a word to anyone. She couldn't take it anymore, and today she took her revenge. She punched Susan Wilson in the mouth, and she was told she broke her front tooth, and that gave her great pleasure. She deserved it , and more, but Megan had to pretend she was sorry, and of course the Principal took Susan's side. He didn't care that she followed her into the girls bathroom, and threw her purse in the toilet, and all her friends laughed like it was a big joke. Megan knew her parents would take Principal Sims side, and she didn't care, she was fed up, and today was going to be the day it all ended. She wasn't going to feel this pain anymore, and she wasn't going to cry anymore over Susan, and her little group of followers. Pam, Kerry, and Tara followed Susan around like little puppies, and she hated them just as much.
Megan sat through the lecture Principal Sims gave her, and he told her to go home. He also informed her she was suspended for 3 days, and her parents have been notified. She left the school thinking it was the last time anyone there would see her, and that made her smile at least. She walked home, and walked up the driveway, she was happy her parents were not home yet. She walked into the house, and threw her coat on the floor. She knew that would drive her Mother crazy, and she laughed to herself, because she didn't care what her Mother or Father thought anymore. She went into the kitchen she grabbed a bottle of water, and ran upstairs to her parents room. She wanted them to find her in their bed, so it would hurt even more. She was going to write a note, but she decided no note was better. They would always wonder why, and she knew that would be worse. She walked to her Parents medicine cabinet, and grabbed her Mom's sleeping pills. She opened the bottle, and took all the pills left. She counted 12 she thought for sure that would kill her. She hoped she didn't survive this because if she did her Parents would make her pay. She walked over to the bed, and laid down, she was going over the events of the day, tears came to her eyes. She hated that she had to do this, but she couldn't take it anymore. She had no one, and she was tired of feeling depressed, and down everyday, and no one caring. She suddenly started to feel the effects , she just got very sleepy, and her heart felt like it was racing. She didn't want to feel pain, and she thought maybe she would just go to sleep, and it would be over. She started to shut her eyes, and she knew it wouldn't be much longer. She was falling asleep , and she whispered , "You all will be sorry". She was dying, and no one was even around to care
Megan's Mom Tammy came home, and saw her coat on the floor . She was livid, she yelled out Megan's name, but got no answer. She was so angry, she ran upstairs, and was shocked when she went into Megan's room, and didn't find her. She yelled out her name, and ran to her room seeing Megan asleep on the bed. She ran over seeing the pill bottle on the bed beside her. She grabbed Megan screaming her name, she couldn't wake her so she called 911. She was hysterical, they told her to keep talking to her, and try to wake her, the ambulance was on the way. Tammy was never more scared, but she wasn't going to let Megan die, she kept yelling at her, and trying to wake her. She could see her little girl was dying, and she didn't understand why, but she knew if she lost her she would never forgive herself.
To be continued.

Chapter 2
Tammy could see her Daughter getting pale, and she was not responding. She wasn't strong enough to carry her to the shower, but she grabbed cold water, and was splashing it on her face. It did not help Megan was dying right in front of her, and she couldn't do anything about it. She knew it was minutes since she called 911 but it felt like hours. She was losing control, and she started to scream at her daughter.
"How could you do this to us, you are selfish, and I will never forgive you if you die on me"
Megan was slipping away but she heard her Mothers voice, and what she was saying didn't surprise Megan at all. This was the reason she wanted to die for in the first place. She was a disappointment to her parents, they were smart, and she was average. She would never be what they wanted her to be, and she hated them for making her feel worthless. She screamed back at her Mother but nothing came out, she was dying, and she just wanted it to be over. She felt her Mother slap her, but it didn't really hurt it was like she was hollow, and nothing hurt her anymore. She always read in the books you see someone you love come to get you she was all alone how poetic she was going to die alone too. She knew all that crap in the books was a joke, and she wished she could go back to tell her Mother all the crap she told her for years was a lie. She laughed to herself, but suddenly she didn't feel alone anymore she saw a dark shadow, but she felt scared. It wasn't a good feeling it was like how she felt watching a horror movie, and something really bad was going to happen. Is this death was it true what her Grandma told her you go to Hell if you kill yourself. She suddenly didn't want to die she didn't want to go to Hell, she wanted to go to Heaven, and she shut her eyes. She knew this was her slipping away, but it was so real. She felt hands start grabbing her legs, and she could not move she wanted to scream out for help but nothing would come out of her mouth. She didn't want to see what was touching her she was willing them to go away. She wanted her Mom, she wanted to take back what she did but she couldn't. She was dying, and it was her own fault. She could not believe God would punish her after everything she went through. She was suppose to have faith, but how could she after God let her suffer all these years. She felt hands on her chest, she couldn't breath, she couldn't do anything but wait to be taken wherever she was going. She heard someone whisperer in her ear, "It is not time yet"
Just as she heard that she gasped for air, and she jumped up as the Paramedic tried to lay her back down. She was frantic, she looked for her Mother, and saw her on the phone. She whispered, "I'm not dead"
"You stopped breathing we brought you back, what were you thinking"? You also had your stomach pumped, you need to rest.
"Did you see them"?
"Who"?
"The person touching me"?
"That was us we were reviving you , why did you try to kill yourself"?
"I'm tired of hurting"
"OK we are taking you to the hospital, you will get the help you need"
"No I'm not crazy please I will never do it again"
Tammy walked over sitting beside her. "You scared me to death your Father is so upset. Do you have any idea what you did to me"?
"Mom"
"Do you"?
The Paramedic's touched Tammy's arm, "She needs support not you yelling at her"
"She is my Daughter , she needs to know what she has done"
"I wanted to die , I hate my life"
Tammy was so angry she got up walking out as the Paramedics got her ready to go to the hospital.
Megan laid there silent not knowing exactly what happened. She knows she died, and something brought her back, and she remembered the voice that said , "It's not time yet". She knew she heard it, but who was it"? She was shaking as one Paramedic whispered, "You will be fine, we are going now". Megan shut her eyes, and tried to sleep but she couldn't she knew she would never be the same again, but she knew she needed help before it was to late.

Great start to your new horror/thriller story Jessie. I am so glad that Megan didn't die even though she tried to commit suicide because she depressed because she thinks she is a huge disappointment to her mom Tammy and her father. :'(I hope that Megan can get some help for her problems so she can patch things up with her parents so she doesn't want to attempt suicide again. I can't wait to read more of your new horror/thriller story. Please update this story again soon.

Chapter 3
Megan was taken outside, and put in the ambulance. She was shocked when her own Mother said to go ahead she would drive to the hospital with her Father. Megan cried out but the paramedics just got her settled, and left. She never felt more alone , she truly had no one. She hated herself for doing this to herself, and not succeeding. She will never live this down in her Mother's eyes, or her Father's for that matter. She got to the hospital, she was exhausted, and so scared. She had nurses, and Doctors fussing over her, but all she wanted to do was crawl up, and die.
"Hello Megan I'm Dr. Leon, now I need to ask you some questions. I know your tired, and sore, and your throat is raw from the Paramedics forcing you to get sick, but I need to know why you tried to kill yourself today"?
"I don't want to talk is my Mom here"?
"No she is on the way, are you being harmed in anyway"?
Megan's head was pounding, and she heard the voice in her head yelling at her.
"Tell them what your feeling"
Dr. Leon touched Megan's hand making her jump, and cry out.
"I wanted to die because I'm tired of feeling this way"
"Is someone harming you "?
"Yes"
"Your parents"?
"They don't care about me, no one does, and if I died no one would care"
"You are wrong your Parents, and your friends would care"
"No they wouldn't, I don't have any friends"
"Ok calm down your blood pressure is way to high. I need you to rest, and if you don't we will have to give you something to put you out"
"I don't want to sleep I'm scared"
"You are safe here no one is going to harm you"
"The person will get me they said they didn't see him, but I heard him, he was there"?
The Nurse looked at the Doctor who looked real concerned. He said he would be right back, and he left the room. The Nurse smiled but Megan just stared at her, she was scared, and she didn't trust anyone.
Dr. Leon was at the Nurse's desk writing something down when Megan's Parents came down the hall. Dr. Leon introduced himself to them, and they shook his hand.
"Doctor how is my Daughter"? Robert said
"Well she is resting but she is saying someone grabbed her after she tried to comment suicide. Has she said anything like this before or is this just happening today? She is young, and she did try to commit suicide what is going on in her life that would make her do this to herself"?
"Are you accusing us we are wonderful parents? We both work she is a lonely child, she doesn't have many friends. She reads books, and gets good grades, and this came out of left field for us. If we knew she was feeling suicidal we would have had her seeing someone so do not accuse us"
Robert touched Megan shoulder, "I think he is trying to find out what is going on"?
"I would like to know why our Daughter did this to us? We will be the talk of the neighborhood, and she will have fewer friends now they will be afraid of her"
"Both of you listen here this is about Megan not about you, and your reputation. We have to find out why this happened, and we have to get her help"
The Nurse came out in the hall, "Dr. Leon she can hear her Parents she is scared, she wants to see them".
Robert walked to the room, and went in with Tammy following. Dr. Leon walked in too, and followed them to her bed.
"Daddy"
"Megan Sweetie what did you do"?
"I'm sorry take me home"
"No Megan you can't go home after what you did. Dr. Leon will get you the help you need, and when we know your better we will bring you home". Tammy said
"Daddy no I will be good, I don't want to go anywhere"
Robert turned, "Maybe let her go home we will watch her"
Dr. Leon knew Megan was upset, but he suggested that she go to a Rehab Center for people with Suicidal thoughts, or Depression problems, at least for a few weeks so they can get to the bottom of her problems. He has a place that is mostly for teens, and young adults, and they are wonderful, and get wonderful results getting people back to normal, or close to it with medication, and other treatments.
"No I don't want to go anywhere please don't do this"
"I'm sorry Megan you brought this upon yourself". Her Mother said making Megan lash out screaming she hated her, and she even said she wished she died, she will never forgive her. Dr. Leon had to restrain her, and the Nurse gave her a sedative, and Megan finally drifted off asleep.
Robert walked out in the hall he was upset so was Tammy. They signed the papers, and Dr. Leon told them they would have her transferred in the morning. He also thought it would be better if they were not there, but they could visit as soon as she was settled. Tammy said she would get some things ready for her, and drop them off, but she agreed not seeing her right now might be for the best. She walked away, and Robert followed her.
The Nurse whispered, "God that woman is cold it is no wonder the girl tried to harm herself"
"She should be out for a few hours, but if you have any problems call me". He left, and the Nurse went into the room to check on Megan.

Chapter 4
The next morning Megan woke up, and sat up suddenly not remembering where she was. The Nurse walked over, and laid her back down.
"Megan your in the hospital you had a good sleep last night the medication is still in your system that is why your groggy"
"Where is my Parents"?
"They are not here but today your going somewhere where they can help you"
"I don't need help I want to go home"
"You hush child or you will be put out again" Dr Leon walked in, and walked over to the Nurse saying she was out of line, and he would take over. The nurse walked out, and Dr. Leon was checking her vitals.
"Megan I know your scared, and you want to go home. I think it is best you go to this hospital they will help you deal with your issues, and find out why you thought suicide was your only option"
"I made a mistake I promise I will never do it again"
"If that is true you will be out of this hospital your going to in no time"
"I won't go"
"Your parents signed the waiver this is for the best. You will be leaving soon we are waiting for the ambulance to come to take you there"
Megan knew talking to him was no use so she turned away, and shut her eyes. Dr. Leon felt horrible he could see she was so alone, but he also knew sending her home the way she was could lead to her really killing herself, and that made him ill. He stayed with her, and it was 15 minutes later two men walk in with a stretcher, and Megan grabbed on to Dr. Leon.
"No I'm not crazy I'm just scared please don't do this". Dr. Leon had to sedate her she was so upset, and she was fighting them all the way. She finally drifted off asleep they got her settled. Dr. Leon signed the wavier they had, and they left with her. Dr. Leon walked to the front desk handing the nurse the chart, but turned to see the elevator shut, and he felt like he let her down, but he had no choice.
Megan was taken by ambulance to the Rehab center , and was taken to the back where the new patients get registered, and evaluated and sent where they should be located in the hospital by their issues, and problems. Megan started to come to, and right away she knew she was somewhere different this place was cold, and the Nurses were not very friendly. They were tending to her but not really talking.
Megan grabbed one Nurses hand, and whispered, "Can I see my Mother"?
"Not today normally not for a few days but your Doctor will make that decision".
Megan laid back she wanted to cry, but she held it in she didn't want to look like a baby, but she was she never wanted her Mom, and Dad more than she did this moment.
A lady Doctor walked over to her bed, and smiled, but Megan didn't like her right off the bat.
"Hello your Megan, I'm Dr. Stewart, and I will be taking care of you while your here. You will have other Doctors, and counselors, and therapists, but I will be the one that makes all the decisions in your case. You can not see your family until I say so , and that will depend on how you adjust to being here. You tried to harm yourself, and I will not release you until I understand why"
Megan didn't say anything , Dr. Stewart lowered the side bar to her bed. She told Megan to sit up she was going to walk to her new room, and she didn't want any trouble.
Megan sat up, and got off the bed her legs almost gave out she was so weak. She followed Dr. Stewart who walked ahead of her, but kept her eye on her. Megan was looking at the patients, and Nurses, but she noticed the place was scary, and she shivered thinking she had to spend one day in this awful place. She was walking when a young girl came running out of her room screaming , and banged right into a cart, and she fell to the floor. She was kicking , and screaming, and Megan froze she was so scared. Dr. Stewart pushed her to the wall, and yelled for her to stay still. She ran over helping a Nurse give the young woman a needle. Megan watched but she couldn't keep her eyes off of the young lady. She was so young, and scared, and she was staring at her. Megan watched as the young girl was lifted off the floor, and carried back to her room by two orderly.
Dr. Stewart walked over to Megan, and whispered, "Follow me". Megan was still in a trance but that was broken when Dr. Stewart raised her voice.
"Megan follow me".
Megan followed her but she was never more scared she hated this place, and she wondered if it would drive her insane having to be here.

Thanks for reading my story, I need to update this one more often. It is one of my favourites to write.
Chapter 5
Dr. Stewart opened a door, and told Megan to go in. Megan walked in, and she stopped there was 2 beds, 2 side tables with 2 drawers each, and 1 small window with bars on it. She jumped when Dr. Stewart took her by the arm, and showed her the bed she would be using.
"Do I sleep in here alone"?
"No you have a roommate who is in therapy right now. You will be having a Little chat with me in 1 hour so get some rest. You will be having a full day tomorrow, but today you, and me will get to know each other a little better"
"I don't like this place, please let me talk to my parents"
"Your parents put you in this place this is not your home we are here trying to help you, so rest, and the Nurse will come, and get you when I'm ready"
"I am sorry I tried to hurt myself, I will not do it again I promise"
"We are happy you feel that way but every patient says the exact same thing so I am sorry that won't get you out of here until your ready"
Dr. Stewart walked to the door, and Megan yelled, "Please I'm scared, I want to go home". Dr. Stewart walked out shutting the door making Megan sit on the bed, and just stare at the door. She held her pillow close to her, and held back the tears, she wondered if someone was watching her right this moment. She got off the bed, and was looking around looking for a camera. She couldn't see one but she knew there probably was one. She walked over looking out the window, but the view was crappy. She leaned against the wall, she wanted to scream, she hated her parents for doing this. They were happy to get rid of her for awhile, she knew she would never forgive them for putting her in this cold , dark place. She heard the door open, and she thought it was the Nurse, but it was a young girl, and a Nurse.
"Oh hello you must be Megan, I'm Nurse Tina, and this is your roommate Lisa. She can be a nasty one so if she gives you any problems just tell me, and we will deal with it".
Nurse Tina left, and Lisa sat on the bed, and started to laugh.
"What did you do Princess, you are shaking am I that scary"?
"No I'm not scared of you, I don't belong here"
"Really I don't belong here either but I am so deal with it"
"Why are you here"?
"I cut myself, and I beat up my Teacher she deserved it. What did you do "?
"Nothing"
"You lie I told you about me, and your lying to me". Lisa jumped up, and Megan cried out.
"OK I tried to commit suicide"
"Really cool how did you cut your wrists?
"No my Mom's pills"
"Oh man your parents must be feeling guilty"?
"No they are happy they got rid of me for awhile I guess" Megan said sitting on the bed.
"Let me tell you something Megan don't let them break you, Dr. Stewart is going to try, and break you don't let her win"
"She said if I don't get with the program, I will not see my Parents"
"They put you here girl why do you care, why did you try to commit suicide "?
"Not sure I was having a bad day I guess"
"Sure a bad day you eat a pint of ice cream, and a couple of bags of potato chips. You are hiding something from me Megan"
"No I just feel so alone, and I hate my life, and right this moment I hate my parents"
"Hate is a good emotion use it"
Megan smiled, "You will never get out of here Lisa with that attitude, I'm going to do whatever it takes to get out of here, and the minute I do I'm running so far away my Parents will never find me"
"Smart move you will be a street kid, and end up dead anyway"
"Shut up Lisa you are getting on my nerves"
"Oh now who has the attitude". Lisa smiled as the door opened, and Nurse Tina walked in, and told Megan it was time to see Dr. Stewart.
Megan walked over, and turned looking at Lisa as she walked out, and the Nurse shut the door.

Chapter 6
Nurse Tina, took Megan to Dr. Stewart's office. She opened the door, and Dr. Stewart told Tina to bring Megan into the office. Megan did as she was told , Dr. Stewart told her to sit on the couch, and relax she would be ready for her in a moment. Megan sat down, and held her hands in front of her. Dr. Stewart was signing some papers, she finally got up, and sat in the chair across from her.
"OK Megan we are here, and I want this to be a good day for the both of us. I want to know more about you, and why do you think you ended up here"?
"My Parents hate me basically, I don't think I was ever wanted, and that is the truth"
"Oh is someone feeling sorry for herself, but go on"
"Why bother you obviously think I'm lying to you"
"Megan I don't think anything yet, I'm trying to wrap my head around a young beautiful girl trying to take her life, you have money, and nice clothes, a great home to live in, you are spoiled, and selfish for doing what you did to yourself let alone your parents"
"I know I wanted to hurt them like they hurt me. I feel like I don't belong anywhere, I get bullied at school, and my Parents are so wrapped up in their own lives to care about mine"
"You need to be independent, and realize you have to take care of yourself. Your Parents should listen, but you are probably right they are thinking about themselves, but does that give you a right to kill yourself"?
"No I said I was sorry, I just wanted my pain to end"
"You had pain, you were neglected, and bullied, I think you have something else your hiding"
"No I just want to be happy, but I can't see that happening with the life I have at the moment. I never hurt anyone in my life, why do people hurt me Dr. Stewart answer me that"
"You let them hurt you that is why. A bully gets pleasure watching the person they bully go into a shell, and they keep going after them until they strip the person of every ounce of pride, and dignity, and than they move on to the next person"
"You are suppose to make me feel better not make me want to end it for real"
"Watch your Mouth or I swear you will not like the punishment"
"I don't like this place, I don't like talking to you, I feel like I'm getting bullied all over again"
"I'm telling you the truth, I'm not bullying anyone young lady"
"What can I do to get out of this rotten disgusting place"?
"Grow up, and realize the world is not all about you Megan"
Dr. Stewart got up, and grabbed a journal, and a pen, and handed it to Megan.
"You will write in this daily, and each morning I will read what you wrote, and I will know if your writing just to shut me up. I want you to write what your feeling, and what made you turn into the person I'm looking at this moment. I think we could help you here but only if you stop fighting us every step of the way. Megan looked at the journal, and said she understood.
"Nurse Tina will show you around the place, and get you use to the rules, but look at me young lady"
Megan looked at Dr. Stewart, as she said.
"You break any rules you will not have Mommy, and Daddy here to help you. I promise you, I will treat you just like I treat all my patients, don't cross me Megan, you will regret it dearly, and that is a promise"
Megan got up, "Yes Mame"
"Go out, and listen to Nurse Tina, I will see you later". Megan walked out, and Nurse Tina smiled.
"How did it go"?
"OK I guess"
"Let me show you around, it isn't all that bad if you do as your told" Megan followed Tina but she knew she had to focus, and try to get through her time here, she didn't want to know what would happen if she didn't go by the rules.

Great update Jessie. Poor Megan in this story. I loved the talk between Megan and Dr. Stewart in this chapter. I hope things get better for Megan soon in this story and that she gets to go home to her parents. I also hope and pray that she writes exactly what she is feeling in the journal that Dr. Stewart gave her and not what she thinks Dr. Stewart wants to hear from her so she can be released out of the rehab center and into her parents care. I hope you update this story again really soon. It is one of my favortie stories of yours that you are writing and posting on my message board.

Chapter 7
Megan followed Tina down the hall, and she felt so closed in, the place was like a Prison. The Nurses barely smiled, and there was Guards standing at each end of the floor. Tina stopped, and pointed to a door, and Megan walked inside, and Tina told her this is where she will eat her meals. She told her how the rules went you ate breakfast at 8am, lunch at 12 noon, and dinner at 5. You miss any meal you will wait for the next one. You do not have snacks only on movie nights which is the every 2nd Friday. You don't like the movie you stay locked in your room, and miss out. There was only 2 hours of TV viewing per day, and basically you watch what the Nurses put on for you, and again if you don't like it you can go to your room.
Nurse Tina turned to Megan, "You understand the rules child"?
"Yes I understand"
"Good the sooner you obey the rules you will fit in here fine." Tina than took her down to show her the Movie room, and where the TV is set up, and she was told her hours of viewing would be listed on the door on a daily basis. She showed her the exercise room, and where most of the Group meetings took place. She told her she will not be allowed outside until Dr. Stewart felt she was ready to.
"I understand"
"Fine I will give you a special treat, I will let you watch some TV before dinner. I think the Nurses watch Young, and the Restless so I hope you enjoy Soap Operas"
"I don't watch Soap Operas"
"Well you will now , and remember make a fuss, and you will be in your room faster than a speeding bullet". Megan smiled but Tina pointed her finger. "That was not meant as a joke do I make myself clear"?
"Yes". Tina took her to the recreation room, and Megan went inside, and saw several girls, and a few young men sitting watching whatever was on TV. Tina took her over to the Nurse, and told her Megan was the new patient, and she was to watch TV until dinner.
"Sure" Tina walked away, and Megan looked at the Nurse who pointed to a chair, and told her to sit down, and told her not to talk during the show.
Megan sat down, and was looking at the TV when she noticed two young ladies looking at her giggling, and she rolled her eyes because she was not in the mood to be looked down on by other patients.
"Hey new girl you to good for us"
Megan looked back at the Nurse who had her back to them. All she needed right now was to get in trouble. She leaned over whispering, "I am not the one giggling so I think it is you two who think you are to good for me"
"Oh a smart mouth Tara"
Tara smiled, "You better watch that mouth of yours it will get you in a lot of trouble"
Megan turned her back to them, and watched the TV but she knew by looking at the show she hated it already. She hated seeing anything that was to do with romance, because she didn't believe in love. She heard the door open, and she actually saw a few of the patients seem to appear scared when a young man walked in. He had a Guard holding his arm, and he was brought over, and sat down on a chair far away from the others. Megan was looking when a young girl touched her arm, and said.
"Don't look at him or you will be sorry"
That comment only made Megan want to look at him more. He seemed sad, and lonely, but he also looked angry, and maybe even cruel. The Guard told him to stay in his seat, and not to move or he will spend another 2 weeks in his room all alone.
The young man said nothing the Guard stood behind him watching the young man like a Hawk. Megan wondered what he did to have this much security. She was staring when the young man turned staring at her, and Megan looked away feeling a little scared. She could feel he was still staring when the Guard walked over to her touching her arm.
Megan looked at the Guard , and he said, "You don't want to be with the likes of Brian young lady so keep your eyes on the TV if you know what is good for you"
"Yes Sir" Megan looked at the TV but she really wanted to go back to her room because she felt scared, and she hated her parents for putting her in this awful place. She didn't look at Brian the rest of the time in the TV room, but if you asked her what she saw on TV she couldn't tell you. She was thinking about why she was in here, and she hated to say it to herself she would have rather died than to be locked up in here like a caged animal. The show was over, and the Nurse told them it was dinner time, and they all got up, and walked to the cafeteria area. She sat down , and she kept looking at the door wondering if Brian would join them. She jumped when Lisa sat beside her, and said.
"Hey I hear you made enemies already you are going to get a beat down if you don't smarten up."
"I didn't do anything they were rude"
"Trust me you don't want them coming after you"
Megan looked over seeing Tara, and Nora looking at her. She looked at Lisa, and asked her what was up with Brian why was he being treated like a Criminal"?
"He is a Criminal you met him already"?
"He was in the TV room before dinner but what did he do"?
"He has been locked up for years ever since he was 9"
"That is horrible what is wrong with his Parents"
"I guess they had no say in it he killed his parents , and his sister"
"How can a 9 year old do that"?
"I don't know, I never asked him stay away from him Megan he is not right"
"I can't eat I feel sick" Megan got up, and ran out of the room. She got to her room when she saw Brian being put in his room while another guard brought his dinner. She stood looking but she opened her room, and went inside, and walked over to the bed hugging her journal that she was still carrying. She sat on the bed, and opened it up, and just started writing. She was shocked but the words just flowed out, and she wrote exactly how she felt this exact moment, and how alone she felt.

Chapter 8
Lisa woke up the next morning, and looked over seeing Megan sitting up just staring at her journal.
"Girl did you sleep at all you look terrible" Lisa said as Megan shut the journal, and said, "No I couldn't sleep, I hate this place"
Lisa got up grabbing her pants, and put them on as she said.
"You better get with the program or you will be sorry. I hate this place too but I want out of this place. I will lie my way out of here, and I will tell them what they want to hear"
"What do you mean"?
"Tell them you are messed up, and let them talk to you, and pretend to listen. Take your medicine, and eventually they will think you are better than you will be released"
"I am not crazy I don't need help, I am just sad is all"
"Yes, and I bet you tried to kill yourself like me"
Megan sat down she wanted to forget about what she did but she replayed it over, and over in her head every night she went to sleep. She remembered the voices, and she was scared maybe she was going crazy.
"You ok Megan"?
"Why did you try to kill yourself"?
"My Parents, boyfriend, Sister my school take your pick. I have not been happy for years, and I sometimes think if I died no one would care"
"I know what you mean but I don't really want to die"
"Good that means you are getting better but you better stay away from Brian because he may kill you"
"I don't think so, and I don't believe he killed his family. I can not see a child doing that"
"I warned you but you better get dressed or you will miss breakfast"
Megan grabbed her shirt, and pants, and put them on. She brushed her hair, and put on her shoes when the door opened, and Nurse Tina told them it was time for breakfast. They walked out, and was walking to the cafeteria. Megan stopped outside Brian's door, and touched it when Lisa touched her back.
Megan jumped making Lisa laugh but they both jumped when they turn seeing Brian looking at them from the window. Lisa grabbed Megan's arm, and said, "Come on he hates people staring at him"
Megan looked at Brian but she turned, and ran to the cafeteria with Lisa.

Great chapter Jessie. I feel horrible for Megan and Lisa being stuck in the rehab center. I hope they both get better soon and that they get to go home to their families. I also hope and pray that Brian doesn't hurt either one of them when they are in the rehab center. I hope you update this story again really soon. This is one of my favorite stories you are writing and posting on my message board.
