"It's really not a problem." I said shaking my head a little bit, giving a small smile to her and shrugging a little bit. "You can stop saying sorry now.." I added, waving it off a little bit.
"Um.." I shrugged a little bit, "Sometimes we got along, sometimes we didn't."I said, finding that, that seeeming to be the easiest way to describe it.

"But I ruined the curtains..." she repeats almost crying over the fact that she was the one that damaged them.
Glancing up at him she sighs and pulled her covers up to her chin almost. "Then why did you come check on me? Doesn't seem like we either get along or don't get along."

"You didn't ruin the curtains." I said shaking my head over to her, finishing up, fixing them. "Look, good as new." I added with a small nod over to them. "Don't worry about it."
I shrugged a little bit. "Cause you're my cousin.. wanted to see what was wrong."

Shell felt a couple tears fall from her newly discovered blue eyes and quickly wipes them away. Nodding faintly as she looked up at him. "Am I crazy Riley or is it something else?" she asks swallowing lightly before feeling a few more tears making there way to her puffy eyes.

I frowned slightly and shrugged, sitting down in the chair next to her bed again. "You're going through a little rough patch.. I wouldn't call it crazy exactly.." I said softly, shaking my head faintly. Well, I could call it that, cause I'm really not sure right now. But she's in the mental ward.

"Rough patch... how many have I had? For some reason I'm thinking it's a high number." she says with a sigh as she put her hands through her curls.

I shrugged a little bit. "I'm not sure actually.." I said, shaking my head faintly again. I wasn't sure what to classify as what and I honestly wasn't keeping track of it.

"That's great. Just great..." she says softly, looking down at her hands. "Is there anyone that has visited me yet or anything?" Shell asks as she stared at the curtains again as if they'd fall again on their own.

I shrugged a little bit. "I'm not sure.. I just found out you got here myself.. So I really have no idea." I said shaking my head faintly. "Sorry..."

"It's fine." she says looking back over to Riley with a weak smile before her face went blank again. "Who are you? My name is Shelby... something." she says giving him a nod but her face had confusion written all over it.

I frowned a bit more, giving her a confused look and picking up her chart again, with a pen. "Nice to meet you Shelby.. I'm Riley.. One of your doctors.." I said with a faint smile over to her, before writing down a couple things in the comments section with a small sigh.

"Doctors? What for? I feel fine." shes says with a confident nod before looking down at the half eaten jello cup. "Hey! Are you stealing my food? Nurse!"

"Well, um.. you seem to have some kind of amnesia.. but I'm not your main doctor, so I really can't give you any information." I said shaking my head a little bit, closing the binder again.
"No.. Not stealing your food." I told her putting my hands up slightly defensively to say that I didn't. "No need to call Anna.."

"I do not." she says crossing her arms before pushing the tray back some. "I'd prefer to have the nurse in here and not be stuck with some doctor that isn't even my technical doctor sir." Shell says with a frown on her face. "What let you decide that you can observe my charts if you're not my doctor that's looking at me for whatever I have?"

"Then by all means, get the nurse in here.." I said with a small sigh, ruffling some of the hair on the back of head slightly. "Then I'll stop looking at them.. I'm not treating you. I honestly don't know a thing about why you're, alright?"
I paused for a moment, wondering if I should even bother telling her I was her cousin again.

Shell opens her mouth before immediately shutting it. Getting up from her bed she makes her way slowly over to Riley before just staring at him. "There has to be reason why you're looking at these..." she says as Shell takes them from his hands, "I'd appreciate it if you... pretty!" Shell screams before hopping over to a vase of purple flowers sitting on a table before smelling them. "What kind of flowers are these?"

I raised my eyebrows slightly and sighed a little bit about to answer her, and tell her that I was her cousin and I was concerned. That maybe I would be able to give some input.. help a little bit. But that was when she got completely distracted by flowers.
I was slightly confused by this and I really think that she actually had a reason to be here.. she was seeming quite crazy to me.
"I, um.. Violets.. I think." I said shaking my head a litle bit looking at the plant.

"I love that name! I think when I have children I'll name one Violet!" she says grinning ear to ear over at Riley before taking one and putting it into her hair. "Who are you exactly? Maybe a shoemaker? I really want a pair of blue moccasins." Shell giggles quite similar to a Liese giggle.

I was already sort of tiring of this and I rubbed my forehead slightly looking over to her, giving her a small smile and nod. "I'm Riley.. your cousin.. and no, not a shoemaker.. sorry bout that." I said with a faint nod.

"Awww. Hmm." she says looking over to the doorframe and plastering a smile to her face. "I'll go find one then!" Shell yells running past Riley and out into the hallway, scaring a few of the nurses. "Are you a shoemaker? How about you?" Ooooh, pretty flowers!"

My eyes widened slightly and I got up out of my chair and followed her out into the hallway. I put my hands on her shoulders. "How about I find you a shoemaker.. and you go lay down and relax.." I told her with a small smile.
"Sorry guys." I said smiling over to the few nurses that Shelby seemed to have scared.

"No, no, no. I want to find the shoemaker. Besides you don't know what kind of shoes I want." she says with a nod before glancing at the flowers again in awe. "Mister Riley sir, do you know the muffin man?" Shell asks turning around and glancing up at him with a goofy grin on her face as she giggled again.

"You want blue moccasins, I think." I said with a faint nod. "In fact, I'll find a shoemaker and bring him here so you can talk to him personally.." I said with a faint nod, wanting to get her back into her bed.
I paused for a moment at her next question, "I um, yeah, I do actually, I can bring him to you too." I told her with a small smile. "All you have to do in return, is go back to your bed.."

"No! I want to find him!" she insists but gasps excitedly once he heard of the muffin man. "You know he doesn't really live on Curry Lane. If he did, everyone in the world would go and see him just to get free muffins and then he would be out of business. He really lives on the street over." she says with a nod.

I sighed again, looking over to the couple nurses, giving them a pleading look, so maybe they would come and help me. "Shelby, how about this.. we get you some jello. and some lunch.. and then you can go look for him alright?" I asked looking at her, a couple other nurses coming over and gathering by her, with friendly smiles.
"And oh I know.. if he really gave away his address, he'd be crazy." I said with a smile and nod.

Shell glances at the other nurses before looking up at Riley. "Oh hey Riley. Where are we? The kids aren't hurt are they?" she asks in a slightly panicked voice before biting her lip and walking over to the reception desk. "Hello. Is anyone checked in under the surname of Crescent, Henderson, Meadowes, Chou, Slayter or even Pearson?" she asks making sure she got to all of the last names before glancing back to Riley with a frown carved into her worried expression.

I gave her a slightly worried look and walked over to her, putting my arm around her and walking back towards the room. "Shelby.. it's none of the kids." I said quietly, frowning a bit towards her. "You should go lay down.." I add softly, looking over to her. "And the kids are fine.. as far as I know.. I can go check up on them if you want."

Shell stares up at him as they walked into a room where a few of her things were there already. "That's a relief... but why are you here? Shouldn't you be working or something and why am I here? Did I fall on the ice and broke something?" she asks sitting down on the bed still with a worried look on her face. "What's going on Ri?"

"I am working, Shelby." I said shaking my head a little bit, looking over to her. "I just saw that you were checked in today.. so I wanted to come and see you.." I added with a small frown to her. I walked with her over to her bed an sighed a little a bit. "You're in the mental ward Shelby.." I sai looking over to her again.

"M-mental ward? This has to be a mistake. You know that I'm a bit loopy sometimes, but crazy? Riley can't you sign something to let me out of here? I need to go home and take care of my kids. It's christmas time! Please?" she asks standing up and reaching for her coat, already buttoning that and grabbing her purse. "Come on, let's go to the desk and tell them it was a mix up."
