"Who wants to do some crazy shit?" I smirk, biting my lip.

"Crazy shit?" Everybody stops what they're doing, paying attention to me.

"What state we in?" I ask.

"Arizona." Michael says, peering at the map.

"Wanna go jump off a waterfall?" I giggle.

"What?!" They all yell in unison.

---

I stand by the waterfall, ready to jump in my underwear. Michael in his, Ashton in his, and Maria in her tank top, and shorts.

"Jump in, Madisyn!" Maria laughs, leaning against the rocks. "It was your idea."

"You first!" I quickly grab the closest person to me, and push them down the 75 foot drop into the water. I see Michael fly down the crystal blue waterfall.

"You bitch!" Ashton and Maria laugh, as they push me in together. I feel my heart stop beating, the cold wind rushing through my hair. Then no sound. None at all. I open my eyes. Blue. I swim up to see Ashton and Maria jump together in each others arms. I laugh. "Geronimo bitch!" Maria flicks me off after catching her breath again. I stick my tongue out at both of them laughing. I turn away from them, to see Michael laughing. His shoulders twitching. My eyes widen. He has to get out of the water... Now! He can't tic... He'll drown!

"Michael, come here." I say, swimming closer to land. He quickly follows.

"Would you like to dine with Lucifer? Fucking sick bastard. Suck my cock ya little whore! You useless piece of fat shit. Ha! Pedophile!" He starts to tic. I grab his hand, jerking him to shore.

"Michael? Stop! Stop ticking!" I yell, holding his head in my lap, tears streaming down my cheeks. "I'm here. I'm here." I whisper grabbing his hand. It starts to appear like he's having a seizure.

"Oh my god... Our phones are in the jeep, we have to get help, call 911. We're too far away from anybody!" Maria panics. Michael stops, taking a deep breath.

"I'm sorry guys, it was just intense tics. It wasn't a seizure. I'm fine." Michael gets up, brushing off the sand. I quickly stand him, throwing myself into his arms. He chuckles, petting my head. The first day of Orange Haven, when Michael introduced himself, I was astonished. I never thought I would be in his arms. Be on his mind, sharing kisses. Jumping off of a reserved highly illegal waterfall, and smoking weed. I smile.

"Come on. Next stop, New Mexico!" I yell, as we run back to the jeep.

"What you all doing here?" A cop steps in front of us. Shit!

"Is there a problem sir? I thought we could swim here?" Ashton says, as I distract Michael from ticking.

"Yea, it's very illegal. Come with me." He handcuffs Ashton, Maria, me then Michael.

"Wait sir! Please listen to me." I plead. He crosses his arms over his chest.

"We've done a lot of crazy, stupid crap over the past few days. Purple haired girl, anorexia. Lilac haired guy, Tourettes. Only 10% of people have it as bad as him. Golden haired boy, Bipolar. Me... I tried to OD the other day. We escaped a mental hospital, and before this, we were all alone. Had no friends. When my dad died, he told me to bring his ashes to New Orleans. That's where we're going..." I bite my lip, hoping it would work.

Notes

Hopefully they don't get arrested! Then, they'll get caught, having to go back to Orange Haven.
