Whispers

Crazy? I was crazy once. That's what Dr. Whittemore says. But I know the last year and a half was real. Justin Beale doesn't exist, but the scars he left behind do. And against all odds, I survived. I healed. I'm fine. Better than fine, if not a little altered; it's the whispers. Garrett helped me through those. Loved me. Said he'd be there for me-and proved it. So, our whirlwind romance began. Then, complications arose. Now, in the psychiatric hospital, they say he, our baby, my life-all illusions. Delusions my mind created in response to the assault. I believe them... until Derek is admitted. He doesn't recognize me. I know him. He's Garrett. And Bryn? Well, she's insane. Certifiable. Her outside-the-box thinking is necessary if I want to return to that universe rather than live in this miserable one.Crazy? I was crazy once. I will do crazier things to reclaim my life. I'll sacrifice anything and anyone, including myself. I'd better watch my back. I'm coming for me.
