PROBABLY THE HEAVIEST THING I HAVE EVER WRITTEN. Except not really, because it's glossed over. But still, APPLICABLE WARNINGS: Mentions of past abuse, glossed over suicide attempt, glossed over self-harm.... seriously people, I was afraid I was gonna end up like Katie at one point, hence this update. If I ever finish this story, I'll delve further into her past in the sequel. Oh, and James is alive. ;D enjoy!

Episode 88: We all fall down.
KATIE'S POV:
"Well..." I closed my eyes, and everything came back. I didn't even realize I was running away until Carlos grabbed me.
"Katie, Katie calm down, come back to me," He whispered, physically restraining me. I opened my eyes to see two nurses looking at me, but I shook my head, crying hysterically. "Katie you gotta settle down or they're gonna sedate you." I started to take deep breaths.
"That's it K, breathe," Carlos murmured. "What happened? Why did you run off?"
"M-m-my m-m-mom!" I sobbed.
"Shh, she's not here and she'll never get to you," he whispered. "What did she do?
"H-hit me, told me to get out," I sobbed. "S-she never wants me again, cuz of my fetish! She hates me!" Carlos rocked me gently while Lucy turned on the song Kendall made me. I instantly relaxed at the sound of his voice, and I quickly settled down. "S-sorry."
"Nah, it's alright K," Carlos murmured.
"I didn't mean to bring all that back," Lucy said. "I'm sorry."
"No don't be," I whispered. "It normally doesn't go like that... normally I close my eyes and I go straight past my mom..."
"Where do you go?" Carlos asked. I spent the next hour explaining how I ended up in LA: From when my mom kicked me out to when I almost died and Camille took me in, not noticing when James opened his eyes....
END KATIE'S POV
"Wow, I had no idea," Lucy said.
"Me either," James rasped from the bed. Everyone looked up, and the tears started to flow again, but this time out of joy; James was going to be okay.
