Why I Left and Why I'm Leaving

Chapter 10

[Adam's POV]

Ty and I just sit akwardly when Mitch bursts into the room.

"Adam! Ty!" He half-shouts. "Don't you... remember... asylum escapee?" 

"Slow down, Mitch. You're not making any sense."

"There was an asylum escapee..." Mitch starts. "Someone else had to kill a bunch of people... We seemed to know the escapee and his accomplice, right, Jerome?"

"Y-yeah." It's obvious that Jerome didn't know.

"Oh my!" Ty began. I could tell he was just playing along.

"I have to make a quick phonecall..." I began. I exited the room.

(5-1-5-0)

"Hello? Crazy police. How can I help you?"

"Yeah." I began. "Can we have some people take one of our... friends?" I felt pain in my heart as I thought of it but it had to be done.

"Sure. What do they look like?" I described Mitch in a low voice. "Alright. We'll be there in a minute." I walked back into the room with Mitch and Jerome. Mitch stared at the wall. Jerome looked at me questioningly and I nodded. He covered his mouth and tears began to well up in his eyes.

"No." I heard him mutter. Someone knocked on the door and i felt myself begin to cry too. I looked over and Ty stared at the floor. I went and got the door. Five men in white walked in and headed over to Mitch.

"Please come with us."

"Mitch, these guys want to take you to a nice place to care for you." I began. I heard Ty choke back a sob. Mitch began walking with the men then his eyes widened.

"No!" He realised what was going on and tried to run. One of them grabbed his leg and Mitch fell. "No!!" He screamed. "NOOOOOO!!!" They dragged him to their car and Jerome tried to run after him. I knew that was going to happen, so I grabbed his arm.

"Mitch!!!"

"Jerome!!"

"I'm sorry, Biggums! I'll see you soon!!" Jerome strained against me and the door shut behind the last man. Jerome broke into sobs and I let him go. He slumped against the ground and Ty began patting him on the back. I just stood there and cried. "Biggums." He muttered. Jerome burst into sobs. Ty looked at me like, 'Why did you do that?' I choked back a sob and ran to my room. I clicked the door locked and heard Ty pound on the door.

"Adam!" The pounding slowly stopped and I heard slumping. "Adam..." I sat with my back against the door. "I've only known you for less than a day, and I don't know what's happening anymore." I heard sobbing. "Why'd you have to send Mitch away?" I don't respond.

((Pls don't kill me. That's all I have to say... I had to, you'll understand later.))
