(F/C) tears dripped into the sink and mixed with the running water. You whimpered in pain as you stared into your dark reflection. Dark, heavy bags hung underneath your eyes and your face was paler than a sheet of paper. It's been three months since you started cutting yourself, but it didn't seem to be helping. The pain in your chest still existed and your mental health was still grim. Your sleepless nights seemed to increase as well, which gave you massive headaches in the morning and afternoon.

"I hate me..." You said, the number of your tears increasing.

You wanted to reverse time and make sure you had never been born. The bullying, the harassment, it's too much for one squid to handle. It's too much for you to handle. The only thing that seemed to keep you going was him. Wait, didn't you need to go to his house later today? Just then, a vibration came from your squid phone. It played one of the famous Squid Sisters singles, Tide Goes Out. With a shaky hand, you grabbed your phone and answered.

"Hello...?" You tried answering in your best "normal" voice.

"(Y/N), you're alive!" A bright voice answered back, "It's already past six, when are you coming over?"

A sigh of relief came through your mouth when you heard Aloha's voice. His voice was the only thing keeping you from ending it all. Despite how annoying he is, you can't help but love him with all your heart. Tonight was his birthday and you promised him that you'd be there. By this time, a lot of guests have probably already arrived.

"Ah, sorry, I lost track of time." You apologized.

"It's fine, don't worry about it. Just get your butt over here already!"

"Okay okay, I'm coming..."

After that, you hanged up the phone and started wrapping up your cuts. After that, you went to find some clothes for the party. You grabbed an Annaki Drive Tee, black leggings, and a pair of your favorite (shoes). After dressing up, you made haste out of your apartment to Aloha's house.

•───⋅☾ Party Time ☽⋅───•

You knocked on the front door to the blooming house, lights and loud music bursting out from every window. You didn't like loud parties, mainly because you knew there'd at least one person judging you, but since it's Aloha's party, you didn't mind too much. The door opened, giving you a little bit of whiplash, and there he was. The famous party thrasher and freshest squid on the block, Aloha. His smile grew even wider when he laid eyes on you.

"Finally, why make me wait like that?" Aloha joked, slightly jabbing at your shoulder.

You blushed and rubbed the back of your neck, "Sorry, I was caught up in something."

"Ah, I don't care either way. Now, let's party~!"

Aloha lead you inside of the house and slammed the door shut. He was practically dragging you to the other side of the house like a little kid. I guess some things never change, you chuckled. Aloha is just like he was all those years ago, a carefree soul. At times, you did envy him for being able to fit in so well. Meanwhile, you were looked down upon as an outcast, a squid that will never be able to fit in with the crowd.

"Ew, why is that ugly girl with Aloha?" You overheard a jealous female scoff.

"I know, right?" Her friend agreed, "She's wearing a long sleeve shirt. Like, we're at a party idiot, wear something worthwhile."
