I got that red lip classic thing that you like.

Talula Wakefield. 17. Child of The Experiment. Rescue Ward. Schizophrenia.

“Doesn’t mean you can’t stay anyway,” He teased, his arm wrapping around her shoulders as they walked. His mind still racing, but the thoughts all focused on her and for once it was okay. “Right and people are doing it anyway, like the no co-ed roommates stops them. Little kids, could do them some good. I know the other island kids could use it. Nightmares are a bitch at age.”

[outcastxtalula]

She laughed, shaking her head. “Even though they’re not supposed to. When people want it they do whatever it takes to get it. I’m surprised nobody’s been caught yet. I think it would do the island kids a lot of good, even if it’s the same sex in the same room. Island kids should be with island kids if it’s possible. I’d love to share a room with someone from the island. Maybe I’d actually be able to sleep and not hear things that aren’t there in the middle of the night.”

“Hey. Jessica, Misha, Sorin, Wade, Simon, and…Talula. My apologies for any mispronunciations, but that aside, I would greatly appreciate it if you would come and speak to me. If not, I guess I’ll have to come to you. Either way… we’ll talk.”

“I’m Talula. You pronounced it fairly well. If it’s easier you can call me Lula too. A lot of people did when I was younger.”

[afterallitsatticus]

“Yes, really. I’m more than happy to, Talula, really. I just need to talk to your therapist and we can work something out, okay? You’ll be sleeping soundly in no time.”

[outcastxtalula]

“Seriously this means a lot to me. It would be nice to finally get a full nights sleep for once since I was diagnosed.”

[brett-thorton-deactivated201604]

“Finally? Did everyone else beat me?”

[outcastxtalula]

“I’m not sure if everyone else did, but there’s a few of us here so far. Aurora, Misha, Grayson, Wade, and Noelle. But they’re just the few I’ve seen so far.”

[misha--shrpg-blog]

“Wow..” Misha mumbled, kind of confused as to why so many from the island were here. “Yis, I don’t know where to go. Can you show me?” He asked more courageously, as he recognized the girl.

[outcastxtalula]

“Of course I can. Take my hand. We’ll find someone that works here and then I’ll bring you to your room. Sound like a plan?” Talula held out her hand to the young boy.

[misha--shrpg-blog]

“Y-you!!” Misha exclaimed and pointed at the girl. “I remember you!You are here too!?” The little one asked with enthusiasm, not completely understanding the situation.

[outcastxtalula]

Talula smiled, kneeling down. “I am here too. I’m here, Grayson’s here, and Wade’s here too. What’s wrong, kiddo? A little lost?”

[brett-thorton-deactivated201604]

“C-Can you, um, help me? I can’t find my room.”

[outcastxtalula]

“Well well. Brett. Finally made it here?”

[misha--shrpg-blog]

Misha took a deep breath before he walked inside the huge building. He started looking around curiously, but nothing looked really inviting. As noone was approaching him, the kid started getting a little worried. Without knowing what to do, he walked up to a random person. “U-um..sowwy..can you help me?” He asked shyly, looking kind of scared.

[outcastxtalula]

Talula had just come from the cafeteria. She’d finally gotten the strength to move from bed to eat something. She was just about to turn the corner when she heard a little voice. She turned around, smiling when she saw the little boy. “Hey Mish.”

[afterallitsatticus]

“I’m both actually, maybe I can try to help you if you’d me to. I’ll have to speak to your therapist about it, but I’d be happy to.”

[outcastxtalula]

“Really? Thank you. That um...that would mean a lot.”

[waywardgrayson-blog]

Grayson ran his long, slender fingers though her hair. For a moment, it all stopped, the thoughts seemed to subside. For a moment, he was at peace with himself. Grayson kissed the side of head before letting go, his hand taking it’s place in hers as he lead them towards his bedroom. “Fact we can’t have co-ed roommates is kind of bullshit sometimes.”

[outcastxtalula]

Talula wrapped an arm gently around his waist. It was almost like she was a normal teenager when she was with him. She was calm. It was a great feeling. She missed feeling like this. She let out a soft sigh when he spoke. “I kind of agree. I mean, what are little kids going to do? Nothing. Kids our age I can kind of see, but sometimes it’s for the better if there’s co-ed roommates. Hell I’d feel so much better if I had a guy roommate.”

[waywardgrayson-blog]

“It’s been a long time since we’ve done anything together. I’ve missed you, Lula.” Grayson smiled weakly as he wrapped his arms around her in a hug, needing to feel her closeness. He’d felt so distant from the world, from everything, he needed to be grounded. She helped, she was his reminder, she was the good in the world. She made this life livable.”Let’s go,”

[outcastxtalula]

“I know. I missed you too, Gray.” Talula wrapped her arms tight around his neck, shutting out the rest of the world around her. She hadn’t felt this calm in a long time. She nodded, holding her hand out for him to take.

“I hope so. I think talking to being who aren’t nurses and doctors who just want to talk about me being sick is a refreshing change.” she said.

[outcastxtalula]

“I can definitely relate to that. I feel like every adult I talk to here only wants to talk about my disease. It gets annoying. I just want to talk to someone and have a conversation about something normal.”

[waywardgrayson-blog]

“The answer is never going to change, promise.” Grayson smiled at her reply, kissing her forehead before speaking again. “Good. Hey, it’s been a while since we had some just us time. How about we head to my room and see how about getting some sleep or just talk,”

[outcastxtalula]

Talula smiled softly, nodding. She believed him. She had to. He’d never intentionally lied to her before. She had no reason to believe that he’d start now. She nodded again. “It’s been a long time since we just laid around and relaxed.”

[afterallitsatticus]

“I’m more than happy to. That’s good though, even if it’s just for a bit, it’s a good thing. Have you spoken to your doctor recently about it?”

[outcastxtalula]

“I haven’t, but then again I don’t have a doctor. I just have a therapist. It would be nice to talk to someone about my sleeping habits though.”

[dancing-levi]

Can I just go outside..?

[outcastxtalula]

You want to go outside too?

[kick-it-kara-blog-deactivated20]

Hold up.... Tomorrow’s the 4th of July..?

[outcastxtalula]

Apparently, yes.

[waywardgrayson-blog]

“I thought you knew me better than that.” Grayson smiled as he met her eyes, his hands giving hers a soft squeeze. “I never give up, especially not with you involved. Together or nothing, alright? Always going to be you and me.” Grayson meant every word, but he didn’t understand how he could get well when he wasn’t sick to begin with.

[outcastxtalula]

Talula smiled softly. “I know, but you know sometimes I have to double check and make sure.” She looked into Grayson’s eyes, the smile never leaving her face. “I believe you.”
