Dr. Loomis walked slowly down the halls of Smith's Grove Sanitarium where he would spend most of his life working, nodding towards the guards that unlocked his section of the Sanitarium he walked down the hall and opened the only empty room he had and sighed. 

"Rodriguez, have the house keeping up here immediately, this room needs to be thoroughly cleaned, new bed and bedding brought in and a desk," he told the guard that stood guard in the hall, nodding he radioed over the request before walking closer. 

"You got a new patient coming Doc?" He asked and Dr. Loomis nodded, and he said, "yeah female, she will have to go here,' and the guard snorted and said, "is it smart? Putting her her to the freak," and Dr. Loomis shot him a disapproving look.

"You know it is not wise to antagonize him, I have told you that numerous of times, you have no idea what he is capable of," the doctor said walking past the guard and opening the door to Micheal's room, as always, he was sitting at his desk making another paper mask and ignoring him completely. 

"How are you today, Michael?" The doctor asked and as always got no answer and he then said, "well, I just want to let you know that you will get a neighbor next door, a girl," and this time Micheal's hands stopped moving as he tilted his head to the side and glanced to the side at the aging Doctor, taking that as a sign Micheal wanted to know more, he smiled.

"Her name is Bella, she is coming from Washington, her parents got concerned for when she became severely depressed after her Boyfriend left her suddenly, she attacked her mother and started screaming about Vampires and Wolves, I have not assessed her yet, but she will be here tomorrow," he told Micheal who gave one nod before turning back to his work, sighing Dr. Loomis left shutting the door behind him and heading back to his work as he past housekeeping coming to get Bella's room ready. 

Bella sat in the van hands cuffed in front of her as they pulled to her new home, she looked at it and sighed, how had her life become this such a short amount of time, she knew the answer, the fucking Cullen's that is what, they had completely screwed up her life and now her parents had abandoned her to, given her to this place to deal with and sliding out the van she walked next to 2 guards as she was lead inside, once they walked into the room and past security she was met by an older man. 

"Helo Miss. Swan, my name is Dr. Loomis, and I will be your doctor," he said holding out his hand, she narrowed her eyes at him and refused to shake his hand, sighing he mentioned for the guards to uncuffed her before grabbing her arm gently and pulling her through the door before it was locked. 

"Welcome to my wing here at Smith's Grove Sanitarium this is the rec room, if you are good you will be allowed access for a few hours a day," he said waving his arm in a sweeping motion, Bella just rolled her eyes before looking around, it was a fairly good sized room with painted blue walls a Tv, some books and games and a few couches and chairs, there in the corner of the room was a large man sitting by the window, he was wearing a face mask but had long hair past his shoulders hanging down, he was wearing the same blue scrubs as she was and he was looking over towards them, he was sitting down but Bella could tell he was very tall, over 6 feet as she guess and a muscular build and from what she could tell dark eyes.

Pulling her down the hall Bella smiled over at the man before ducking her her head down and letting the doctor pulled her down the hall. 

"This is your room here, you only have one neighbor as I only have one other patient, his name is Michael Myers, he was sitting out in the rec rooms, he had been here since he was 10, I would implore you not to bother him, he is very dangerous," dr. Loomis told her and se just ignored him as she looked around the room, it was not much, small full size bed in the corner, blue sheets and blankets and a white desk by the door and a small window that let in very little light, it looked like a fancy prison cell to her. 

"I am good with danger," she mumbled thinking about everything she had been through with the Cullen's, she knew these people did not believe her and wanted to make her think she had gone crazy, but Bella knew the truth, the cold bite mark on her arm reminded her every day. 

"Ah, yes the Vampires and Wolves you have been talking about, tell me why you feel they are real?" He asked her and she just glared at him, she was done talking to assholes like him about the truth, they did not want to believe her and that was fine with er.

"Would like to rest or go out into the Rec area before dinner?" He asked and she just shrugged, he waved her with him as he pulled her back out and into the rec area where Michael was still sitting out the window.

"Remember what I said, there is a guard over there if you need anything," he said before walking though the locked door and into his office. 

"What an idiot," she mumbled, and she saw Michael's head tilt, but he said nothing or gave of any indication he knew she was there, she then walked around the room for a moment ignoring the guards lingering looks on her as she shifted through the magazines before walking over towards the books that were behind Michael near the only window in the room.

"Excuse me, do you mind if I get a book?" She asked and he tilted his head to look at her as she walked closer, no one ever came near him so it shocked him, she did not seem scared of him like everyone else did, she looked at her for a moment before shrugging, nodding she walked past him and bent down to run her fingers over the book titles before pulling one from the shelf and Michael took a deep breath, she smelled amazing and was very pretty, he had seen plenty of women come and go some that worked there and some that visited with patients, he seen even more watching the people come and go from the Hospital across the street but this girl, this new patient was by far the prettiest he had ever seen, she was a classic beauty and needed no enhancements girl tended to use, she had hurt and anger in her eyes and Michael could relate to that.

Walking by she bit her her lip as she peeked over at him then to the cahir that sat scross from him and overlooked the window. 

"May I?" She asked pointing to the chair, no one ever asked him anything before they did it and it threw him for a moment before he gave one nod and she smiled as she slide past him and brushed against his shoulder to get by, he tensed for a moment he did not like to be touched but for some reason her touch did not leave him feeling angry like it normally did, it make him feel something else, something new. 

"I am Isabella Swan, but everyone calls me Bella, you Michael, right?" She asked and he gave another nod.

"Nice to meet you, I guess were are neighbor's now," she said before opening the book and pulling her legs up into the chair with her, they sat in silence after that which was glad, he had not talked in years to anyone and though she did not seem to mind talking to him, she was not one that needed to feel the quite with endless chatter and was content to just read and occasionally looked out the window or toss a glare at the guard that could not take his eyes off her and Michael watched her the whole time they sat there as he tried to figure out why she was the first person he had ever met that he did not feel the urge to kill, everyone else he could and would gladly kill with no issues but this girl though, something made her exempt from thoughts and it baffled him and when dinner came around they were ordered back to their room and Bella sighed but stood anyways. 

"Right this way, baby," the guard said and Bella jerked from him with narrowed eyes as Michael stood as well.

"Back the fuck up asshole, I am not interested," she hissed before storming away towards her room, Michael's glare at the guard was harsher than normal as he took followed and went back to his room, as the doors shut them inside, he sat on his bed and ate quietly to himself as he listened to the girl moved around next door. 

"Fucking Pervert," he heard her mumble, and he cracked a smile as she mumbled to herself as she ate and later that night he woke up to her loud gasp as she sat up in his bed, he laid there and listened as she silently cried for a few moments. 

"God, why won't you leave me alone," she whispered before sitting up in the bed, he could hear the blankets pulled back as she sat up against the wall, she hummed to herself for a while after and Michael just laid there and listened before falling back to sleep listening to her gentle hums.

The next day Bella went back to the Rec room where they opened her door and took a seat on the same chair as before to continue to read, a few moments later Michael dropped down into the chair next to her, when she felt a thump against the front of her book she looked over to see Michael looking at her with those blue eyes that held and said much.

"Hello Michael, are you okay?" She asked him and he gave a nod and poked the book again.

"Oh this, do you want it?" She asked handing it to him and he shook his head and pushed it back towards her and pointed towards the book titling his head to the side. 

"Oh, it is called Wuthering Heights, it is, well use to be one of my favorites, it is an older book I have read it 100 times, it is a book by Emily Bronte about this strange family from a long time ago that brings in an orphan to live with them, it is a lot of drama with a little love in the mix," she said and he nodded.

"Do you want me to read it to you?" She asked and he gave one nod, smiling she flipped back to the front of the page of the book and began to read until Loomis came out to get her for the session.

"I got to go and sit with Dr. Nosey, here keep this and I will continue when I get back okay," she said folding the corner of the book and sitting it in Michael's lap, he gave another nod and held it in his hands as she stood and walked over towards Loomis who had been watching them, Michael narrowed his eyes at the guard's eyes followed Bella around the room and Bella just shot him the bird and Michael cracked a smile.
