Asylum

Chapter 10

She pulled away all too quick and pushed me off of her. "Robbie! What the hell?"

I staggered back and realized what I had done
I put my hand to my mouth, lips still tingling from her touch. "Oh my god, Vic. I'm sorry. I don't know what came over me. It will never happen again, I promise." I said stepping towards her.

She took a step back. "You're damn straight it won't happen again." She glanced over her shoulder making sure no one was near and whispered, "Robbie. What the hell were you thinking!?"

I scratched my head and shrugged. "I wasn't. I'm truly sorry. It was an honest mistake. We were standing so close and I'm a boy. It's in my nature." I said as I chuckled.

Victoria smiled slightly before returning her to her cautious stance. "Yes, well. Good evening Mr. Kay. I shall see you in the morning." She nodded her head and walked out of my cell.

"Good evening, Victoria." I whispered back.

Victoria's POV

Where the hell does Robbie get the nerve? I have known this guy for two days! Two fucking days!

But there is something about his beautiful plump pink lips...

No stop it.

But-

"I said stop it!" I screamed aloud. A local nurse named Rose said, "Ms. Waters? Are you quite alright?"

I looked at her for a long time before I composed myself and spoke, "Why yes, Rose. I am perfectly lovely."

I quickly turned on my heel and ran away before she could ask me another question. I turned down left to the hall to go to the medicine room where I found Kevin going through the cabinets.

"Uh hi, Kevin?"

He didn't even flinch. Kevin raised his head slowly, shutting the cabinet. "Vicky, back for round two?"

I furrowed my brows at him. "Nope not that. Just wondering why a security guard is in the medicine cabinet."

He chuckled a moment before saying, "I had a headache and Mrs. Silvers said I could come in here and find something for myself."

"That's it? Can't you go to Walmart to pick up Advil?" I said still not really believing him. Mrs. Silvers wouldn't send just anyone down here with the medicine. Only the qualified were allowed down here.

"Oh come on Vicky, you know me. Would I lie to you?" Kevin said before showing me his perfect smile.

I eased up on him and said, "Well I have worked with you the past two years now. Go ahead and take whatever it was you needed. I just need some sleeping pills for Mark Benson upstairs. He said the voices are telling him that he can't go to sleep or this place will explode. Who knows with that one."

Kevin laughed once again before grabbing a pill bottle and stepping aside. "By all means Ms. Waters, don't let me stand in your way of not letting this place burst into ashes."

I returned the warm smile and stepped into the medicine cabinet and grabbed a bottle that read "Benzodiazepines." I turned around to make sure Kevin had left before taking the key out of my pocket and locking the cabinet. Only nurses were supposed to be down here, I don't know who he is screwing to get access within this cabinet, but it definitely wasn't going to be me. I turned back the way I had came and walked up the stairs.

As I came up the stairs a loud siren came over the speakers red lights flashing in the hallways.

"Code Red: We have a missing patient. Cell 32. I repeat Code Red: We have a missing patient. Cell 32"

Wait, Cell 32? That was Robbie's cell!

I quickly turned around and sprinted in the direction of his cell, the pills from the bottle in my hand spilling all over the floor.
