Jacks POV


I had been in this.. place for a few months now, much to my dismay, but i guess it's helping me, as i haven't touched a blade since i arrived.. So, i guess you can tell why i'm in here then..

I'm currently sitting in the cafeteria with Rian and Zack, my best friends in here, when the intercom went off "Barakat to the office!" It boomed. I Groaned before getting up and throwing away my trash and exiting the cafeteria..

As the office was on the other side of the building it took a few minutes to get there, but when I did, Jenna was standing in the middle of the room. "There you are Jack! I Was beginning to think you got lost." She gave me a playful smirk. "Not likely Jen." I grinned cheekily. Her face went from happy to a serious look within a few seconds before she opened and closed her mouth a few times, before deciding on what she'd say. "J-Jack, you're going to have a room mate. His name is Alex. Please be nice to him. Follow me, please." She said, opening the door. I'M GOING TO HAVE A ROOM MATE?!

I followed Jenna through multiple doors until she came to my- well i guess our- room. I Pulled out my keycard and swiped it, the door made a little noise, telling me it was unlocked. I Slowly pushed the door open, and immediately spotted a boy on the spare bed. His honey hair made hiss big dark brown eyes stand out.. Stop Jack!

"Hey, I'm Jack." That seemed to startle him. He gave me a small smile in return. "Alex.." He replied hesitantly. The atmosphere in the room quickly became awkward. Surprisingly I was the one to break it. "Hey Alex, want to play 20 questions?" I Wanted to know more about him, sue me.

"So.. what do you do in your spare time?" Alex shrugged before answering. "Listen to music, study and write mainly. How about you?" He replied. I Shrugged. "Before here?" He nodded. "Listen to music, hang out with my friends, usual shit." I Said nonchantly.
"So.. how old are you?" Alex asked curiously. "18, you?" I Beamed. "17." Alex gave me a small smile. "Why are you in here?" I Asked. He looked normal enough.. "Story for another time." He replied looking uneasy.

"What time is lights out?" He asked me. I Chuckled slightly and pointed to the sing on the door that read
RULES:

• REDUCE NOISE AFTER 9PM
• NO RELATIONS OF ANY KIND WITH STAFF
• LIGHTS OUT AT 11PM
• ALL ELECTRONICAL ITEMS OFF AT 10PM

Alex laughed nervously, before standing up and pulling what looked like a guitar case from under his bed. I looked at him curiously. "Music room. They have soundproofing, right?" He asked nervously. "Yeah, they do. You want help finding it?" I Smiled kindly. "I Think i remember where it was, but thanks anyway." He said sincerely, before opening the door, walking out, and closing it quietly behind him.

Is it weird that i feel lonely now?
