*Dr. Collins POV*
I watched my patient as he played with the army planes before him, being a normal 7 or 8 year old boy I guess. Problem was he isn’t, he’s 30. I sighed, getting up and approaching him. “Gerard? How are you feeling today?”
He shrugged as only a little boy could, not looking at you and continuing to play but still giving acknowledgement and without actually looking directly at you. “You seem to have built up quite a collection of these now Gerard?” I said, picking up an old World War II Spitfire.
“Yeah. My brother brings me a new one each time he comes to visit.”
“Really? And when is class=SpellE>Mikey visiting next?”
“Tomorrow!” He said, looking up at me with excitement in his eyes. “And this time he’s bringing me two! He told me so! Uh-huh!” He nodded excessively to try and strengthen his point like all young children do.
“Wow. That’s lucky isn’t it?” I glanced at my watch and saw it was nearing curfew and I had to continue my rounds. “Hey, come on. It’s almost bedtime. You better get clear up and get in bed quick before matron comes along. You know how angry she gets when you don’t.” I said in a warning tone. He immediately frowned and pouted. “But I don’t wanna go to bed! I’m not tired!”
I shrugged. “Doesn’t matter. You’ve got to do it or matron will be very angry at you Gerard. Now you don’t want that do you?” He shook his head, his relatively short, black hair flopping over his eyes. “Hurry up then and I’ll come see you tomorrow morning before class=SpellE>Mikey arrives.” Gerard nodded and quickly placed all of his planes on a small table at the side of the room before jumping on to the bed and scrambling under the covers. I smiled and went to leave.
“Will you tuck me in?” came a feeble voice, drawing me back into the room. I smiled at him. class=GramE>“Of course.”
I tucked the covers up over him so he was nearly up to his neck. “Warm enough?” I asked and he nodded. “Good. Now goodnight.” I went to leave again and as I turned out the light and started to pull the door I heard a frantic shriek of. “Not all the way!”
“Don’t worry. I won’t.” I replied, leaving it open a crack so light from the corridor could then filter in to the otherwise near pitch black bedroom. “Night Gerard.”

*Gerard’s POV*
I whispered my goodnights, turning so I was facing the door, watching that light. I needed the light; he was scared of the light. Then I heard a noise from behind me and I whipped my head around to look, whimpering slightly. “Leave me alone.” I whispered into the darkness as I felt the presence next to me, pressing in around me. Suffocating me.
As I felt the presence drawing closer and closer to me I did the only thing I could do to protect myself. I screamed. I screamed my heart out; just hoping somebody would come before it silenced me. Please someone help me…

*Dr. Collins POV*
I heard screaming as I came back out into the corridor after finishing my rounds. I saw someone run in with a trolley into Gerard’s room. I started running along the corridor as fast as I could. I entered the room to see the nurses placing restraints on Gerard’s arms and legs as he struggled, screaming. Then I saw one of them withdraw a syringe of sedative, going to inject it into to Gerard’s arm. I stopped them as I ran up and began talking to Gerard. “What’s wrong Gerard?” I asked.
“He’s gonna get me!” He sobbed.
“Who is?” I asked softly.
“The Dark.” He whispered. God he was really like any normal child, scared of the dark. “It’ll be fine Gerard I promise. Nothing’s here. Just us. I’m just going to give you something to help you sleep okay?” He looked wary and I smiled comfortingly at him. “All you’ll feel is a small prick I promise you.”
I got the nurse to hand me the syringe and I injected it into Gerard’s arm. He whimpered, struggling against the restraints adorning his wrists and ankles as the needle pricked him. class=GramE>“Almost done.” I reassured him as I saw the tears begin to form in his eyes. I emptied the syringe and took out the needle and saw Gerard’s eyelids begin to droop.
I waited until he was completely asleep and then I beckoned the two nurses outside with me. “You don’t do ANYTHING to my patients without my say so first! Got it! No drugs should be administered without me giving the go ahead! For all you know he could have reacted badly to that, especially with the drugs we have him on already!”
“Sorry sir.” They both mumbled.
“Get out of my sight!” I said angrily, watching them leave and then pulling Gerard’s door to with a sigh.

*Mikey’s POV*
I sighed as the lift pinged and walked out on to the floor. I smiled at the nurse on the desk as I walked by; they all knew me here now. Gerard had only been in here just over 3 weeks or so now but I visited him at least 3/4 times a week so it isn’t exactly surprising.
As I entered Gerard’s room I saw Dr. Collins sitting on the bed, talking to him and watching as he played with his planes. I noticed the restraints attached to the bed and I felt a lump rise in my throat. What had happened here last night?
Gerard looked around at me and his face lit up. “class=SpellE>Mikey!!” He said happily, scrambling to his feet and running to me, attaching his arms round my waist and cuddling close to me. This used to upset me but I’d become numb to this routine now. I just hugged him back. Then Gerard noticed the plastic bag in my hand. He detached himself from me and I smiled. “Yes, those are for you.”
“You remembered.” He beamed.
“Of course I remembered dummy.” I said and retracting the first 2 presents from my bag and watching as he ran over to where the other planes were, sitting on the floor before beginning to tear at the packaging.
Dr Collins smiled at me. “Hello Mikey. How are you today?”
“Fine thank you.” I said politely.
“If I could talk to you in a moment?” I nodded. Then I heard a gasp and a squeak slightly as he revealed them, a Navy A-4 Skyhawk and a B-17 Flying Fortress. “Thank you class=SpellE>Mikey! These are amazing!”
“That’s okay Gee...but it’s not over yet.” He swung his head round to look at me, bemused. I smiled and brought out a slightly larger package from my bag, smiling as I fake bowed before him and handed him the gift. He tore it open and revealed the Mosquito NF30 Modelling Kit. “I thought we could do it together.” I told him.
His face was a picture as he looked from me to the kit and back to me again. “Thank you...” he whispered as if unable to take it in.
“Would you like to start it now?” His face lit up. “Can we???”
“Of course we can. I just need to talk to Dr. Collins quickly, so you start setting it up okay?”
I went outside with Dr. Collins. “So what’s going on? Why were there restraints on his bed?”
“Ah...you noticed those? Well...he got a bit...agitated last night...and the nurses felt it was the only way to keep him from doing something...from hurting himself...”
“He’s a kid! What exactly could he do?!” I said, getting slightly angry.
“Correction Mikey, he’s a child trapped in an adult body...I can’t see anything more dangerous can you? He doesn’t know his own strength...” I sighed, knowing he was right. “However what I would like to discuss with you is starting a new course of treatment, a course of anti-psychotics...I think right now it is the best thing for Gerard...”
“Will it...help him?” I asked.
“Yes I think it might but we can’t know till we try it.” I nodded. “Okay, that’s fine.” Then I re-entered the room. I wanted to spend time with my brother.
