CARL'S P.O.V
"She hates you...she hates you...they hate you...get over it...get over her..." I whispered to myself. The tears just kept coming. My body was going to run out of water soon.

Vincent walked into my cell and hopped beside me.

"Hey, who's that Paige girl?"

"Cool, she seems nice..."

"Yeah...seems..." I mumbled under my breath.

"What'd you say?" He asked me with a smile.

"I'm just depressed about Paige, Ya know..." I whispered.

"Yeah, I know. It's okay...it'll all be okay..." She pulled me back a little and smiled.

I nodded slightly. She jogged down the stairs as I sat there, staring at my reflection in the mirror by the sink.
