No POV(?)
"NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!!! DON'T TOUCH ME!! SHUT UP!!" Peggy screamed as all the doctors around her tried to pin her down to the metal table. She kicked and punched at the gloved doctors, who were trying to sedate her. Eliza cried silently into Angie's shoulder as she heard the screams of her sister. Peggy let out an ear-piercing scream, making Eliza sob. Angie held her sisters hand as tears streamed down her face. Peggy's screams calmed as a needle strikes into her arm. Her body now felt numb and she couldn't move. Just tears falling down her face as she stared blankly at the ceiling. It was around 4 in the morning. Angie and Eliza stayed up all night with Peggy. Every time her sedation medicine wore off, she would scream and kick again. The doctors took the time to give her medication, trying to get her to sleep. Eliza traced her fingers delicately across Peggy's notebook. John had gone home awhile ago, around 2 am. Eliza and Angie decided to wait to tell everyone that Peggy was in this condition until they got news on what will happen. Or until they knew for sure everyone was awake. They dreaded telling James. A doctor with tired eyes and messed up hair comes out of Peggy's room after 10 minutes of sedation.
"You can go in, Be careful." She tells the sisters. Eliza pat down her tangled locks of hair and walked behind Angie as they walked into Peggy's room. Peggy instantly shot up from her laying position. Glaring at the two. She tries to bring her hands up but is stopped from the straps holding down her wrists to the table. She tugged at the straps. Trying to break through like an animal in a cage. Eliza and Angie cried more and sat down next to Peggy.
"You son of a bitch!" Peggy screamed at Angie and Eliza. Both girls tensed up at Peggy's language. Tears rolling down their cheeks. Peggy scoffed and laughed maniacally, as if she was insane. Her sisters were actually pretty sure that their sister was insane now... at least she acted as though she was.
"You're crying?? Wow!" She insults. Her eyes went completely white, a light glow to them. Eliza flinched and buried her face into Angelica's shoulder.
"Peggy.." she said in a barely audible voice. Peggy laid her head down on her pillow and pulled at the straps that held her down again. Peggy looked away from her sisters and relaxed her body. Falling asleep. She had been so worn down, and tired from the screaming and crying. The struggling to break free and just run. Run to where no one could get her. No bothers. No stress. She didn't want to worry and be overlooked.

She didn't want to be touched. The overwhelming amount of medicine filled her body, only draining her more.
"... for all these reasons.." the doctor starts to finish up explaining what will happen to Peggy.
"She is very dangerous. One things and she could snap. I think you can understand why we have to keep her or send her to a hospital where she can be stabilized." Eliza choked on a sob and dug her face into Angelica's shoulder. Angelica put a hand on Eliza's head, tears streaming down her face. Angelica nodded and sniffed.
"Y-yes... we give permission.. whatever c-can help her.." Angelica choked out. The two signed some paper work and said goodbye to Peggy, who only cursed at them. They walked out of the hospital, tired and worried. Tears still running down their faces in an endless stream. They get into the car, the temperature seeming to drop, and slam the car door shut. Angelica broke down. Pulling her knees to her chest, and hyperventilating, as more tears ran down her face.
"I-I-I f-failed h-h-her!" Angelica said between her tears. Eliza hushed her sister while crying herself. Seeing now both of her sisters are broken.
This moment they knew...
This was a family thing...
James didn't need to know
Nobody else.. needed to know..
At least not now...
James POV
About a week later, we are all packing up to go to Mexico. All packing in a large van that we rented, that fit all of us. Eliza, Peggy, and Angelica aren't going. Neither is Samuel, King, or Charles or Maria.
I haven't seen Maria or my sisters in awhile.
Huh.
Samuel was going through a crisis of who he wanted to be with. Either George or Charles, who had both admitted to liking him.
So we had Lafayette, Thomas, Alexander, Hercules, John, Mae, Jules, and I. Thomas and I got into the very back of the van. Jules and Mae and Jules in the next row,
Hercules and Lafayette in the next,
Alex was driving, and John was in the front with him. The best things was the seats could turn 360 degrees. And they could move from side to side. It was great. We all left at about 10 am, after we went to breakfast. We didn't want to use a plane, because were stupid and thought it would be fun to have a long road trip. We're on Christmas break too though which is awesome. No school work to be made up. I sighed happily as Thomas played with my short hair, my head laying in his lap. Everyone was having a quiet conversation. Just plain peaceful.

Well... until Laf turned his seat and screamed. Everyone seemed to flinch.
"Laf! Why??" Thomas asked his brother, clearly annoyed. I glare at Thomas for his yelling.
"We should play..- what's it called..? Action ou Vérité?"
"Truth or dare?" I ask him, turning my head to look at him. He smiles and nods his head. We all agreed. Except for Alex who was driving. We all turned our seats to make a square/circle shape. John turned his seat as well, deciding to participate. Hercules started to look at John funny. I look at him as he whispered in John's ear. John sighed annoyed and shook his head. His arms crossed across his chest rather tightly. I shrug and sit up from Thomas' lap, leaning on his shoulder now.
"THOMAS! Truth or Dare??" Lafayette screamed again. Thomas rolled his eyes.
"Truth."
"Have you and James had sex yet?" Lafayette asked calmly. My eyes went wide and I whimpered, digging my red face in Thomas' side. Everybody burst out in laughter. Lafayette only chuckled.
"N-no! We haven't had sex. We could change that though..." Thomas mumbled the last part. I squeak in surprise, feeling my face heat up even more.
"IM GOING TO JUMP OUT THE CAR WINDOW! THIS IS TOO AKWARD FOR ME!" I scream, muffled by Thomas' side and the seat. Everyone only laughed more. I whimpered into Thomas again, who put his hand on my back, rubbing it, while chuckling himself.
"Hercules, Truth Or Dare?" Thomas asked.
This went on for another hour and a half. We all had a lot of fun. It was now 11:37 and most of us were playing on our phones, I was drawing. I had my sketchbook in my lap, and music playing in my ears. Humming along with the music. I ended up drawing John and Alex, who were holding hands on the armrest. I smiled and his my signature in it. I tapped Thomas' arm, making him flinch. He was listening to music on his headphones as well I showed him my drawing and pointed to what I was basing it off of. He smiled at me and kissed the top of my head. I giggled and set my sketch pad down. I ended up dozing off, leaning on Thomas' arm.
No POV (short)
James had a Dream with Peggy. They were hanging out, laughing. It was great.. he couldn't wait to see her again...
Time Skip
I would like to say I woke up with birds chirping, my boyfriend next to me, everything peaceful...
"ALEX, HURRY THE F UP! I WANT FOOD!"
Yeah... that's what I was woken up with.
"Guys! Shut up, you're going to wake James, Jules, and John up!" Thomas hushed from beside me. I flinch, fully awake.
"Too late..." all three of us say at the same time. Thomas and Alex growl in annoyance. Jules sat up and stretched out her arms. I sit up and rub my tired eyes.
"Good! Now we can get food!" Lafayette rolled his eyes. I sighed and leaned back on Thomas, who chuckled. Alex grumbled and pulled into a McDonalds. Everybody jumped out of the car.
Now, this, is when I noticed something...
I unbuckled my seatbelt and stood up, crouching slightly so I could get out. Thomas got up after me, crouching more. I got out and waited for him. He went to walk out of the car, but hit his head on the top of the door. I gasped but chuckled slightly.
"Are you okay?" I ask him, grabbing his hand. He squints at me, then nods. I raise an eyebrow at his odd behavior. I held his hand as we walked inside. Thomas seemed hesitant to walk inside.. strange.. Thomas walked in with me, and we went to go stand in line. Thomas was still squinting slightly. Thomas walked forward and ran into a wall.
"Thomas!" I giggled slightly, but was concerned. Thomas rubbed the top of his head and smiled like nothing happened. We ordered and sat at a large table. Thomas wasn't really touching his food, he looked nervous to even reach for his food.
"You okay Tommy..?" I asked quietly, so no one could hear me. He just nods. Suddenly something clicks in my head. I get a random picture from my camera roll. A screenshot that had some writing. Just a quote.
"Hey Thomas, can you read this?" I ask Thomas. He tenses and hesitantly takes my phone. He squints at it then laughs and hands it back.
"That's uh... that's uh.. funny..?" He says in more a question. I cross my arms.
"Thomas how many finger am I holding up?" I ask him, holding up 4 fingers. He looks at me and squints.
"6?" He questions. I shake my head.
"Thomas you can't see, can you?"
Im ending it here -^- lol
Hope you enjoyed.

Contact First
2039 - Earth A narrow beam energy signal appeared aimed squarely at earth from the TRAPPIST system. The communication consisted of a layered set of repeating data over several thousand wavelengths. Over the next few months scientists discovered that the lower wavelengths carried an encoded numerical language which could then be used to interpret the more complicated messages carried on the higher wavelengths. After half a year of painstaking work the signal was fully decoded. It described a small satellite launched along a precise trajectory towards the fourth planet of our solar system. Included was a package of advanced research that humanity would need to have ready in order to receive the satellite and decelerate it safely. The alien data provided the kick that humanity needed to turn from petty squabbling and unite to explore the final frontier. Major government and corporate leaders worked together to create the framework for the United Federation of Sol. UFS spaceports went from scaffolding to daily launches in every major city around the globe. Ships floated like dandelion seeds, spreading on solar wind to grow into colonies. 2397 - Mars orbit, Egeria Station The command center was a hive of activity as checks were conducted and systems initialized. Scientists flitted by like mayflies as communicators beeped and holoscreens spat out green tinted readouts. Nervous energy was thick in the air as everyone anticipated the culmination of over three hundred years of work. Massive fusion reactors under the planet's surface thrummed with barely restrained power as energy fed into a gleaming metallic maze criss crossing the planet. Metal fingers reached up, overshadowing the mighty olympus mons and trying to grab the stars. All over the solar system, people quickly turned to look as gigantic energy lances shot from the dusty fourth planet. Two years later. The same people that clapped loudly at the successful activation of project Hermes now wait with baited breath. A silver capsule trailing bright photonic sails is captured by a net of grav beams and guided with care bordering on reverence into the station. Holoscreens across the headquarters project an image of the sleek craft settling in the bay. Data connections are established and the holoscreens blink to white. Slowly an image forms on the screen. Across the headquarters people stare in wonder as a wholly alien face stares back. "Contact established. Welcome to the universe."

This is my latest story, and it's also published on Wattpad in the book called Short Stories. I wanted to start with something new and unfinished here. I'll try and update at least once every other week, sometimes more often. ~RiisingNovels
