I hope some people still read this and comment and stuff ://

Lily's P.O.V.

It's been a couple of minutes since Jai has left already and he completely refused to tell me why Luke had his phone, weird. Since I was feeling a bit more stable, I decided to keep my promise to Luke and go to the institution.

It's been a few days since I've been to work. I always called in sick, which wasn't really the case of course. As I grabbed my uniform, I stuffed it into my bag and head out to my motorcycle.

The drive there was peaceful, and I wasn't on my nerves at all with the wind blowing through my hair. No more footsteps heard, no more strange things being seen on the sidewalk.

-

Walking through the very familiar, smelly and cold hallways of the top floor of the institution, I hoped that an arm won't grab me that one time when I was walking with Daniel. Thinking of that, where the heck was Daniel?

Shrugging off the thought as I pushed the key into Luke's cell, I slowly turned the key before opening the cell door with a loud creak as it pushed against the floor.

Luke's eyes shot open immediately from his sleep and he grinned, "I missed you." I laughed. "It's only been half an hour."

"But still." Luke stood up quickly, making me flinch a little. He quickly took both of my hands in his own. "I will always miss you no matter what. Even just a minute without seeing your face worries me sickly!" he looked deeply and desperately into my eyes.

"Come to counseling." I smiled softly, keeping in mind he killed my best friend, but I had to smile, for him. "No, you think I'm crazy. Everyone thinks I'm crazy, that's why I do counseling isn't it?" Luke pulled his hands out of mine.

"You're not crazy, you're just lost. The more you do counseling, the quicker you get out of here." I lied, knowing he won't ever be able to leave with the crimes he committed. "Please, for me?" I begged quietly.

His head shot up and he immediately nodded. "Anything for you."

-

"Okay first thing." I folded my hands on my desk as Luke sat across me. "Give me Jai's phone." I held my hand out for Luke to give it to me.

"I don't know what you're talking about." Luke laughed, being a horrible liar. "Luke, for me?" I raised my eyebrows and Luke sighed, plopping Jai's phone into my open hand.

"How did you get this?" I asked as Jai didn't want to tell me before. "I don't know." Luke shrugged his eyebrows. "Luke.." I sighed, folding my arms as I leant back on my chair. "Okay fine. I leant in to whisper him something and he fucking kissed me." Luke grimaced.

"Anyway, whispering him something was meant to distract him enough to get his phone but I guess kissing worked too." Luke shrugged his eyebrows with a pout across his lips. "I think you're lying." I sighed, knowing Jai would never kiss Luke.

"Luke just tell the truth, I know you were just trying to distract him." I laughed. "Okay fine, I kissed him for God's sake!" Luke grimaced, with a disgusted look on his face.

"I was actually pretty good at leading him on though!" he laughed, running his fingers through his somewhat messy hair. "I'm sure." I laughed as well, knowing that it wasn't true at all. Why was Luke being so happy and laughy?

"Okay now let's get to the real talk." I looked seriously into Luke's eyes making him nod in understanding.

-

After talking to him a bit about his thoughts when killing people, he confessed that he doesn't feel bad about it at all. He feels like he's doing a favour to the people when killing them. "Instead of living on this horrifying freakshow we call earth, they go to heaven where they will be eternally happy." he would tell me.

"The world is filthy goddamn horrorshow." He continued, with me nodding, trying to understand where he was getting at. (AHS refrence there oops)

"Do you not feel sad for taking their lives?" I tried reasoning with him. "No. I don't feel sad at all, if anything I'm happy when I kill." Luke grinned innocently. "Luke you need to know that killing isn't right. Will you, for me, not kill anymore?" I begged.

Luke stayed silent as his eyes quickly scanned around the room, making me a bit nervous. "Lily, I used to kill the people I love and like, or at least hurt them." he looked back into my eyes.

"I hurt Jai, I almost killed him infact, before you confessed your love to me. I used to break my other brother Beau's legs. By tying him down with ropes and smashing his legs with a baseball bat. Crack." Luke motioned his hands as if breaking a stick in half.

I cringed mentally at the thought. "I didn't touch my mother though. I would never." Luke confessed with somewhat of a pout. "And why is that?" I questioned.

"I can't hurt the person that made me, that's just cruel." Luke's bottom lips quivered slightly. "And smashing your brother's legs isn't?" I quietly scoffed making Luke's eyes widen, hopefully in realisation.

"It's not cruel. The thing that is cruel is that Jai ditched me for some whore he called 'sweetiepie' and left me alone after we spent our whole life together." he growled with a clenched jaw. "Thus, I killed the little 'sweetiepie' of course taking advantage of her vulnerability before slitting her throat." he chuckled.

"You raped her?! Luke this isn't funny." I said sternly. "I'm sorry." Luke apologized but I could tell he wasn't really sorry. Eesh, it's going to take a while to get this kid's head straight. I mean 'to go from and psychopath to a normal person is going to take a long long long time.' I thought as I shook my head.

"You still think I'm a psychopath?!" Luke slammed his hands onto the desk, standing up. I jumped a little in fright as I put my hands in front of my face. "I'm not a fucking psychopath 'Mrs Feya'" Luke spat.

"I didn't say anything." I whimpered, sinking in my chair. "Oh, are you still oblivious to this? I know what you are thinking Lily, get your head straight!" He leaned over the desk, shouting.

"Please be quiet." I whispered. "No I am NOT going to be quiet!" Luke shouted, hurting my ears a bit. Suddenly, two big guards stormed in, grabbing Luke by each of his arms. "No, leave me alone!" Luke kicked his legs.

I quickly stood up, after the guards left. I heard yells of pain as I cautiously walked down the hallway. Peaking into Luke's cell through the bars, he was sitting on a chair with his back facing me and one of the guards repeatedly whipping his back.

I scrunched my eyes each time he got a whip, him releasing a groan through his gritted teeth. "Okay stop now!" I suddenly cried out as I couldn't take it anymore. The guards nodded, getting out of the cell.

"Luke?" I reached a hand out to his back as I walked forward. "I deserved it." he muttered, looking down. "No one deserves that." I assured him, still behind him.

He suddenly looked up to me with his eyes rimming with tears. "Look what they did to you." I sympathetically tried to comfort him without touching his back so I placed my hand at the back of his neck.

"I feel weak. I hate it." he scoffed. "You're strong. You're a strong man." I whispered as I stroked the back of his neck. "Thanks." he whispered, before standing up, making my hand that was at the back of his neck slip down his back making him wince in pain.

"S-sorry." I quickly brought my hand back in shock. The lines that were whipped across his back were bumpy, they must've been really sore. "Yeah, they are fucking sore." he groaned, flopping onto his bed, facing the wall.

"Must I leave?" I asked, making Luke just shake his head. His back looked destroyed. "Why did they do this?" I questioned out of curiousity. "They always have, since I was a little kid, they would punish me physically for the littlest things. But it didn't work, it just made it worse to be honest because it made me angry when they did stuff like that." he mumbled.

"I'm so sorry to hear that. I can tell them not to do it again?" I stepped closer. "No! Don't. One of the counselors I had in the past tried all she could to make them stop until they led her to lose her job just because she couldn't 'co-operate'." Luke sat up.

Again, sorry for the long wait but I would still aprecciate comments because I feel like no one is reading this book anymore. xox
