    Skylar Rose
    26
    She is a strong confident girl and doesn't let anyone bring her down. She tries to keep her feelings to herself and doesn't let them get in the way of what needs to get done. She can be sweet, caring, protective and loyal if you are on her good side. If you get to her bad side she can be manipulative, cruel, harsh, violent and secretive. She is hard on trusting people. She is quiet mature but has her moments of immaturity. Her eyes light up when she gets into a deep conversation with someone or when she is looking at something or someone she loves. Sky is pretty down to earth and very open minded. She can be very negative and rude sometimes and is very stubborn. She has a set way on how she wants her life to go and hates when things don't go right. She is impatient and exact. She is kind of awkward and isn't too sociable. She asks lots of questions and is very curious which sometimes gets her into trouble. Sky isn't afraid of a lot of things and doesn't scare easily. Sky isn't afraid to hit back, physically and verbally, growing up with three older brothers she learned how to fight back both ways easily.


    Name: Noah jace Thompson
    Age: 19
    Personality: When hes clean, hes kind, smart in a dorky way and rather friendly. He normally sees positives and can keep calm under preassure. But as soon as he hits up on heroin, then things turn dark and sour and sickly. He turns violent..steals he does anything to cure that itch deep inside. Because he feels so numb and calm when hes high. Away from his internal pain.


    [justify]Noah woke slowly from the same boring room, like most mornings he stood up and walked tiredly to the shower before getting dressed. He stretched and remembered today was his new counseling session. Dammit. The last councilor he had he wanted to punch in the face for the things he said to him. He slowly glanced around his room before walking out down the hall. He got the room number and walked to it before knocking. Once he was told to come in he walked in seeing a women. Best behaviour he thought to himself before sitting down.[/justify]

    Skylar sat at her desk with a straight face. She had her hair up in a smooth bun, she wore a dark red blouse and a black pencil skirt. She watched as her new client walked in. She had his file set on her desk and had already read through all of it. She stood once he walked in and straightened out her skirt. She gave him a sweet smile and folded her hands together. "Hello Noah. Please, take a seat." Sky insisted and pointed to the chair in front of her desk. She sat back down and kept a small smile on her face which gentles her features. Her brown eyes peered at him gently at him watching his movements. "My name is Skylar Rose but you can call me Mrs. Rose." She informed him.

    He slowly nods as he took in what she looked like, rather cute to be working in this facility. He sighs as he sits down, leaning back on the chair as he listens to her. "Alright Mrs.Rose."He said as he stretched and glanced around her office for a bit. Taking in his new sourandins. Right now was a crucial point in his recovery. A week without heroin and god it was making him shake and sweat like hell most the time. Lucky today he was a bit shaky but not sweating or itching himself.

    Skylar nodded her head and then pushed his file to the middle of the desk to show him she had it. "This is strictly professional. There will be no emotions towards each other out into this. I am here to help you with your addiction not get laid. It doesn't matter if one of us wants it or if both of us do, it is wrong and against the rules that I expect you to follow. Do you understand?" She spoke in a voice that showed how serious she was. Her smile had dropped and she sat up straight staring at him. Sky didn't want to lose her job by hooking up with a patient. She didn't care how attractive he was she couldn't let herself slip and she hadn't yet. She made sure to get straight to the point so that there wouldn't be any missunderstandings.

    Noah held his hands up in defense before he frowned "Look i dont wanna do that..im not here for that Lady so dont think im gonna try and make a pass at you just because your a lady and im a man. Alright?"he said a bit insulted that she thought he was like that. "So you read all of my file? It didnt say anything about me breaking the rules"he said honestly since he wasnt like that. "So are we gonna get started? Or you going to insult me more"

    Skylar couldn't help but frown at his snappy attitude towards her. She waited for him to finish speaking before she spoke up. "I am not trying to insult you Noah and it is Mrs. Rose, not lady. I inform this to all of my patients just to get that point across exactly. There have been times where patients do try to come onto me, I mean us. I have read your file and I know that you haven't broken any of the rules." She clarified to him. She sighed softly to try to relax from the sudden Hugh energy in the room. "Now with what I have read in your file..." She began as she flipped it open and went a couple pages in. "It seems that you didn't get along with your last therapist. Can you tell me why that is so I can try to avoid the mistakes he made which caused you to switch?" Sky asked as she got back on track of what he was there for.

    Slowly Noah relaxed since he knew that she must just be on her guard since he was a guy client and she didnt want hassle. He sighed as he scratched the back of his neck "Well he wouldnt stop his condesending tone..as if i was a child. I already know what i did was wrong and bad but i dont need inspirational crap like that. Because its fake.."he said before looking at her calmly "i think you will find that easier to avoid. Because you get straight to the point"

    Skylar watched him carefully as he spoke to her. She couldn't help but smile softly and nod in agreement. "I do like to get to the point. Most therapists here try to beat around the bush before they finally get to the main problem, something to do with being careful. I think it is a waist of time. If you are here it is because you want help and I think that you have to be brave to do such a thing. I cut right through so you don't have to spend years here." She spoke confidently. She held herself high in her work place, she knew what she was strong at and what she was weak at and she wasn't afraid of that. "I want you out as soon as possible." Sky added with a gentle smile. She stayed sitting up straight as she looked at Noah. "We will have bad days and we will have good days. But please try to not come in here with a bad attitude because things will quickly escalate and I will have to call security in here... And I hate doing that." She spoke with a small saddened frown.

    "It wont escalate. Im not one to hit people if they are trying to help me. Even if it f*cks me up inside"Noah replied as he stretched then put his hands behind his head in a relaxed manner. He liked her way of doing things because he knew he would benefit from it. He bit his lip as he thought of what to say "So um..This session..should we get started? You know.. You ask me things I talk you listen then talk..ask me something new"He chuckled. Today really wasn't that bad a day for him and it was easy to tell.

    Skylar smiled softly at his response and nodded. She didn't hold onto his word like a promise but hoped he was right. She let out a small laugh, a laugh that people would stop and listen to it was so light and wanted to make you laugh along, she shook her head at his words. "Yes we can begin." She spoke. She moved her chair closer to the desk before leaning back and relaxing. "What I usually do is I start from the beginning. I ask questions about you before whatever you got addicted to." She began and her smile dropped to a more casual look. "What was your life like before you got addicted to... Heroin?" Sky asked but she had to remember the drug he used. "Not right before you started using it, but before whatever event happened that caused you to lead to using this drug." She explained her question better.

    "Well I guess.all you know is that my dads dead from that file. So you wanna know the very beginning?"He said a more serious look on his face as he masked any emotion. He did it to stop himself breaking down. In truth he had tried to let go of his past..and look what happened. "Um..well My dad died when I was 10..He had a job and my mum was busy looking after her parents..After all the grief and that...my grandparents would pay her just enough for us to live on. Before they passed..but then when they died my mum knew we were in a financial mess. Me being young I had no clue what she was doing to now..I only knew that she had strangers..men come a couple times at night.."He sighed before looking at her in case she wanted to ask something or let him continue.

    Skylar nodded her head slowly as he started with the mention of his father. She knew that family deaths were always transfixing, especially at a young age. She sat there and listedened to him with a small frown. She always hated these parts, she really hated all of it but she did it because she wanted to help people and that is what she loved. Sky gave him a small nod and a small comforting smile so he could continue. In her head she tried to figure out ways on how her patients got into the drugs and how she could possibly help them. It was hard and time consuming so she could only see a few patients at a time and even that was very difficult for her. She waited for him to continue and hoped he would t break down, it hurt her heart to watch others in pain.

    He coughed before he looked down at his hands "15..I finally sussed out she was making money from sex..I got into trouble at school because I couldn't focus much and then kids called me stupid so I would hit them.."He took a breath finally the emotion of despair on his face. "I..got into a gang..stealing..we made money and I could proveide for my mum..So she wouldn't have to..b used like that. After a few years we got even more advance, buglary and drug dealing..I was never one to get addicted to Weed and coke..They did nothing for me really. But one day we got busted..The police raided us and I got away with it because of the lack of evidence..my mum went ballistic..but.."He sighed again and covered his face with his hands "She broke down...Became an alcoholic..wasn't so careful anymore and she got pregnant with my half sister.."He tried his best not to cry "Thats when I got kicked out.."

    Skylar sat up some as she listened to him. She frowned deeply and was filled with sadness as he spoke. She knew what it was like to have an alcoholic parent and a drug addicted parent. She felt terrible about what he had gone through to try to help. She bit her lip as he finished and didn't speak for a moment. Sky wanted to reach over to him to comfort him but she had to keep it professional, it was shading the rules and she didn't want him to get any ideas. She knew from experience herself being in that situation though she was the one in pain, she was young and stupid. The biggest mistake of her life. She reached for a box of tissues and pushed it to the edge of the table just in case. Sky gave him a sad smile as she pulled her hand from the box. "I is ok to cry Noah. It is good to show these stronger emotions, it shows how much you care. I won't tell a soul." She spoke sweetly to him. Her smile then dropped as she focused back on the issue. "What happened after that? Is that when you started using heroin or did something else push you to that?" She asked softly hoping not to upset him too much but it was hard being in a situation like his, he would get emotional and there was nothing she could do.

    Noah took a tissue with a thankful look in his eyes before he wiped his face and sighed again. He leaned back trying his best to relax but it was hard for him with all these memoties. "I..got a job at a bar..just cleaning and stuff..I worked as a bartender...once I had worked for a few months. This..girl came in and she looked like a mess..She and I..I wouldn't call it love but we were connected..strongly. She sort of got me into drugs..she didn't get me on Heroin. i have a strong will I could say no to her..she ended up..overdosing. I think thats what triggered it the most. Life just came and went so quickly. I knew her barely a year..And thats when I started..using"

    Skylar frowned and nodded her head as she listened to him. She didn't expect it to be a girl who pushed him over the edge though she should have. It has happened with many others which she hated. She felt a gathered towards this girl for pushing Noah into drugs. He seemed good and he didn't deserve to be addicted to this terrifying drug. It sent chills down her back once Sky read in his file that his addiction was heroin. She was expecting him to be different though, he didn't look bad for being an addict and he was so calm it slightly scared her. She couldn't help but fidget in her seat slightly. "How old were you and how long have you been using and also when was the last time you used it?" She asked slowly. He seemed calm so she felt that it had been a while but some people are really good fakers.

    Noah was doing his best to control his shaking, trying to hide it. Trying to hide how sick he had become and how bad his body hated him "Uh..I um used...few years...Three"He said before strething and then lookin at his hands again "Last time..Was before I got here...A week ago..They didn't want me to get a therapist this early..But I know I need it even if im still withdrawling"He said biting his lip. "I was about 16-17"He said. He took that needle...he pushed it into his skin. This was his fault he was here.

    Skylar froze hearing he used only a week ago. She took a deep breath and relaxed herself as she listened to him. She noticed him shaking and frowned looking at him with side eyes. She then leaned over and placed her hands on the desk. "You listen to me right now Noah. You are one of the strongest people I know. I have had about two handful of heroin users come in and they were only here because of the police or their family and friends. They hadn't been using in almost a month or a few weeks before coming here to see me. You, Noah, you came in here on your own because you wanted to. Because you knew you have a problem and you want it fixed. You want your lift back before you lose it, I understand. But do not think of yourself negative anymore. You need to realize how brace and strong you are for doing this." She spoke to him as if a coach giving his team an inspirational speech before sending them off to playoffs. She was determined to help him as much as possible. "I believe that you can do this. But that honestly doesn't matter. I need you to know that you can do this. I have had many many people come in here with heroin addictions and ended up using again, they are either in jail, still using or dead. It is rare for a person to come back and never use heroin again but I won't give up on you. You will make it out of this and I will be right there to help you along the way. You need to trust and talk to me. You can come talk to me whenever you need to. On Fridays I stay after to finish work and stay just in case anyone needs to talk to me. I close up so if you need to talk I will be here." She spoke to him. "Try keeping a journal. Write down the dates, times and symptoms of withdraws. When you think about using or if you actually use. Then you will come to me every week when it is time for out session and you will show it to me." Sky spoke to him in a gentle but demanding tone. She wanted him to know how much she cared that he got better.

    He was taken back by her passion in helping him, it was something he had been missing. Someone to belive in him when he can't believe in himself. He looked in her in almost disbelief before he nods at her ideas "I can try and do the journal.."He replied wuietly since he was still a bit shocked at her. He didn't quite know what to say. "Mrs.Rose Thank you so much. "He stood up and held out his hand with a kind gentle smile since he was glad. So glad of her help. He was kind of strong for doing thi all on his own.
