Asylum

Colby leaned his head against the wall. His thoughts purely on Sam. He really did love Sam. He was unable to harm him in any way. Colby feels so betrayed. What Colby did to those people was screwed, yes. But he hasn't harmed anyone since Sam has been here. 

Why can't people see that he is changing? Colby wants to scream for help. Scream at the top of his lungs but it wont come out. Colby took off his shirt and threw it on the ground before looking around the room. Searching for something sharp. Something that will make him feel pain. 

He shook his head before he started scratching his arm roughly. Colby hated it here. He needed to get out. 

On the outside they call this place a Sanatorium. But inside they call it and Asylum. Colby smirked as he thought. When he gets out he is going to write one hell of a story of what really goes on at Rosemary Sanatorium. 

Colby looked at the door as he heard talking outside of it. Suddenly the door opened and there he stood. Sam. 

Colby stood up quickly and leaned against the wall farthest from him. His arm bleeding due to the rough scratching. 

"W-what are you doing here?" Colby asked looking at the floor. Sam took a step into the room as the door closed behind him.

"I want to talk" Sam stared at the boy in front of him. Colby looked up at Sam confused.

"Why did you do it?" Sam asked coldly. Colby swallowed roughly. 

"I-I don't know" Colby looked down. "What I... I did.. was awful.. like really awful. I'm not proud of the person I was... but Sam when I met you that changed.. I don't want to hurt you.. i don't want to hurt Jake.." Colby took a step closer to Sam. 

Sam quickly stepped away from the boy. "Dont come close to me." Colby sighed and nodded.

"I don't... I don't feel the need to hurt anyone anymore. Except maybe my step dad. He deserved it... but no one else did!" Sam scoffed "No one deserves to be mutilated." Colby looked up at Sam confused.

"How did you know that?" Sam took the file out and showed it to Colby. "I knew everything before Jake did. I know that you killed an innocent 10-year-old boy." Colby shook his head. 

"N-no I never hurt Bryden..." Sam let out a small laugh before opening the file. "Right here it says that Bryden's head was smashed in with such strength that it dented his skull. He was found in front of your cell." Colby shook his head as tears threatened to fall from his eyes.

"I wouldn't hurt him.... he was like my little brother..." Colby wiped his eyes quickly. Sam busted out in laughter.

"You expect me to believe you? No. No I don't. You may be a good actor. But i will never believe another word you say." Sam closed the file. "Now im going to ask you one more time. Why did you do it?" Colby looked up at Sam. 

"What person..." Colby said quietly. "Ask about anyone and I will tell you" Sam opened the folder.

"Michael Jacobs. What did he do" Colby gulped and looked down. 

"H-he hurt me... I-I didn't mean to kill him.. i got so angry... so i p-pushed him...." Sam looked at him quietly. "What did he do to hurt you Colby" Colby looked at the blonde. 

"H-he... he forced himself on to me.... I was scared... it hurt..." Sam looked shocked.

"Jake's brother. What did he do" Colby shook his head. "Nothing... Neil was a good person..." Sam rolled his eyes. Before putting the folder away.

"I'm down listening to your lies." Colby shook his head. "N-no im not lying... don't go... im scared in here... im alone..." Sam looked at the brunette darkly. "Good. You deserve to be scared. To be alone."

Colby sank to the floor, crying as he curled into a ball. Repeating those two words. "I'm sorry" Sam looked at him, sadness filled his eyes. Sam opened the door and stepped out before locking it. Sam slid down the door tears falling from his eyes.

Colby looked so scared. So vulnerable. Sam took pity on the boy. Sam shook his head quickly before standing up and walking away. 

Once Sam was back at his room he hid the folder. He has never seen someone look so sorry in his life. Something itched inside him telling him to run to the boy and comfort him. 

Maybe Sam truly did love Colby.
