Ty
It's been about a month since I was in the psych ward, about a month since I started medication for my BPD.
I have felt really good about life.
I've still had my moments of getting angry, or feeling a little empty. Besides that life has been really fucking good.
Ava, Juli and I went trick or treating on Halloween. Ava was a princess, Juli was Frankenstein, and I was a basic old vampire. I went to a Halloween party at Aaron's house after I dropped the kids back off at home.
Aaron and I did some trick or treating in the forest mostly. But my dick was doing the trick or treating, his ass was the house. That's besides the point.
Today is my 19th birthday.
I woke up and went downstairs.
Ava and Juli were sitting at the kitchen table eating. Jess was giving mom a plate of food.
"Good morning birthday boy! The big 19!" Jess smiled at me.
I smiled, "Don't remind me".
"I made you some spectacular french toast, courtesy of mom" Jess handed me a plate.
"Thanks you guys".
"Happy birthday Ty," Ava smiled at me, "How're you feeling?".
"Ava, quit asking him that. It's been a month" Jess at down with us.
"I am doing great, even better today. A new age, a new start" I responded.
Ava laughed a little.
"I'm very proud of you my boy," Mom grabbed my hand, "Happy birthday".
I felt happy, "Thanks mom".
"We're gonna do the gift stuff after the kids get home from school. Is that cool with you?" Jess asked.
I nodded.
"Cool".
"Now let's get you kids to school, you don't wanna be late" Mom got up.
Juli and Ava said goodbye to me and then left with mom.
"Where's Ben?" I asked.
Jess shrugged, "Probably with Lylah. They start dating yet?".
"No fucking clue," I smirked, "I'm gonna go for a smoke though".
Jess patted my back, "As long as it's not coke".
"Joke is getting old" I laughed a little as I grabbed my pack from my jacket.
Jess smirked, "Don't forget to take your meds once you get back inside".
I went outside, sat on the stairs, and lit a smoke.
Aaron
"Happy birthday, we hanging out today? Dad is leaving with the brothers for the night".
Ty
"That would be nice, it'll be after dinner though".
Aaron
"Oh sucks, guess I'll get some money in the meantime".
I smirked.
"Hey".
I looked up, nothing around me. I took a deep breath. I would every so often remember Damien, what he said to me and how we were. I wish things ended alright with him. I'm glad I have Aaron.
Even though he won't come out, he doesn't treat me like shit.
I went inside and took my pills.
"You okay?" Jess asked.
