White Oak's mental Hospital :D Are you craZy?

Shannon: I found out that I couldn't move, and Tristan didn't look too keen about dancing either.

Serene - I walked over to Shannon, "Come on, I promise it'll be fun!"

Harper: I sighed. "Everest, you leave me no choice!" I said, then stomped over there with Serene. I stared at Tristan for a long time before poking him under the armpit. "Are you ticklish?" I asked. Tristan glared at me. "Not in the slightest," he muttered. I tickled him just to make sure he wasn't lying. He wasn't. He was taller than me, but thinner, and working as a delivery boy had given me the gift of lifting heavy objects. "okay, Everest, you are going to show some manners and dance with this nice lady." With that, I pulled him up from the bench. "And you, miss Shannon. When you are faced with a submissive man, don't be shy! Take the affirmative!" I said with conviction, "He is practically ASKING you to take charge!"

Tristan: I stood there limply, glaring at Harper.

Shannon: I stood up finally, "All right." I held out my hand for Tristan to take.

Tristan: I had no choice but to take it. Otherwise Harper would force me to, which would be even more embarrassing. I took her hand and followed after Harper and Serene. "I really don't know how to dance," I said to Shannon.

Harper: I overheard what Tristan said and piped up. "You don't have to! Just move to the music!" I mimicked Madonna from her song Vogue while saying that.

Selene - "I think you got Tristan mad," I laugh at Harper's direct attitude.

Shannon: "Move to the music..." I muttered, shaking my head slightly. (BTW cirrus, nice pic.)

(danke! ^^)

Tristan: Move to the music, eh? His Madonna impression was terrible. I sighed, but 'danced' I suppose, with Shannon. All I did really was walk slowly around in circles. My hands grew clammy and my ears were cherry red. I couldn't even look Shannon in the eye. Not that she was unattractive. I was just so nervous. And I always had problems maintaining eye contact.

Harper: "If I did, it'll be the first emotion he's shown all day! Did I tell you? We were riding the same bus, and I was yelling at him and he didn't even blink!"

Shannon: I glanced periodically from my feet to him, and then decided I could at least waltz, or add some steps from it. That was the only dance I knew how to do.

Serene - "Why were you yelling at him?" I wonder.

Tristan: I let Shannon lead, since she obviously knew what she was doing. I stared at our feet as we danced, trying to look at her, but unable to. I bit my lip during one attempt and just spent the rest of the time staring at my feet.

Harper: I shrugged. "I was just venting. I have nothing against him, but I didn't understand why I was being put here, and when he didn't answer my questions, I guess I just blew up."

Serene- "So you're hot headed," I raise my eyebrows

Shannon: "Hey, you can look at me, y'know? I won't bite your head off." I told him softly, trying to be friendly at the same time. I didn't want to be too serious.

Harper: I laugh a little. "I suppose. Just a little. But hot-headedness isn't a reason to be locked up, is it?" I twirled her a little.

Tristan: I blinked a few times and finally forced myself to look at her. It only lasted for a few seconds and I had to look away again. I did glance back at her, which I thought was bizarre to look at. "Sorry," I murmured, "I just...have a hard time....looking at...people...directly. um..." My eyes kept flitting back to her.

Serene- "No, it's not," I say to him. I kind of got what he was going through, people weren't believing him, they were lying to him, they were lying to me.

Shannon: "Oh, it's all right. I kind of thought I did something wrong is all." I flashed him a small smile.

Harper: "Exactly. So I figure I'm just going to ace this evaluation thing and get out of here. It shouldn't be too hard, right?"

Tristan: "Um, no, you didn't do anything...wrong." I tried to smile back, but the most I could get was not frowning.

(hey, I'm gonna have to go...got laundry and the sorts)

(alright)

Serene - "It's hard, trust me," I sigh.

Shannon: Oh, wow, he was really shy, and it didn't help that I was actually a naturally nervous person. I noticed that his ears were red, almost as red as my hair. Was I the reason he was being nervous?

Ariella- I sang quietly.

Harper: "Nothing is too hard for Harper Calloway Fields!" I said loudly, pointing at myself, "I'll ace that thing and be outa here in no time!"

Tristan: I could hear Harper. He was so loud and obnoxious, but at least he had confidence. I could barely look at this girl. I felt quite idiotic. I could feel my breathing get faster, and I started to panic a little. I didn't remember where I had left my inhaler.

Shannon: I noticed Tristan acting a little different, "Are you all right?" I asked, obviously concerned.

Tristan: It was getting harder to breathe. I could barely talk normally. "F-fine." I managed to say breathlessly. I started feel dizzy from hyperventilating, and I was practically holding onto Shannon to keep myself from falling. "Ah...Actually, no." I gasped, "Not fine...not fine at all."

Shannon: I put one of his arms around my shoulders so he could lean on me to stand up right. "Just try to relax." I told him soothingly. "You have any medication or anything to take?"

Tristan: I nodded, but lightly, because any vigorous head shaking would cause me to pass out for sure. "Inhay--inhaler." I said. I couldn't breathe. Maybe if I sat down, I could concentrate on breathing more...or I could look for my inhaler and solve the problem entirely.
