Asylum

Chapter One

It was a cold and lonely night in Blackthorne, security guards were walking around and the patients were locked in their rooms asleep. The only two people who were awake were named Toby and Lilly. Toby was a teenage boy who the entered the asylum at a young age. His hair was the color of toffee and his hazel eyes glistened, and speaks softly. The only person he talks to is Lily; she is the only one who knew why he doesn't talk much. Her  chestnut hair was shoulder length and semi-curly, her eyes are light brown. As Lilly was asleep, Toby crept to her bed and poked her side as a way to wake her up "Rise and shine, Lilly." Toby said softly as he gently rubbed her arm "I'm awake! I'm awake!!" Lilly groaned grumpily as she slowly got up and looked out the window "The sun isn't up yet." She whined "Good morning, sunshine." Toby replied smugly as he gave her a sly grin "Morning." Lilly groaned groggily and walked toward her closet to get her clothes 

As they were walking down the narrow hallway to the mess hall, Toby wasn't by her side anymore "Toby? TOBY?!" Lilly screamed as her eyed widened in horror as her hair whipped her neck "I'm right here, Lilly." Toby replied as he got up "What are you doing on the floor? It's dirty!" She asked while she helped him up "Oh, did I do that? My bad. I didn't mean to trip you." A girl asked as she smirked and left the hallway starting to laugh "I hate her so much." Toby growled dusting himself off and walked to the kitchen with Lilly 

Toby's P.O.V.

Lilly looked concerned when I fell. She's always been concerned with me since I arrived and the doctor assigned us as roommates. I wonder why she worries about me even though I told her don't worry about me, I'll be alright, even though I'm not; we're asylum inmates, we have to worry about ourselves. 

"She's a jerk, Toby, I know, hopefully she'll go away and leave us alone." Lilly whispered in Toby's ear and walked with him, her arm wrapped around his, causing him to blush and shiver "It's cold in here." Toby replied and opened the double doors to the kitchen "It smells gross in here." Lilly groaned and Toby raised an eyebrow at her in confusion "Like what?" He asked her, causing her to look at him grimly "Like death." She replied with a look of despair in her eyes "Lil, of course it smells here; it's an asylum, people die here everyday." Toby replied, putting his hand on her shoulder "C'mon, let's get some food." He smiled, getting a tray
