Jess
I woke up to a loud bang and a scream.
I rushed out of bed and knocked on Ty's bedroom door, "Ty? Ty you okay?".
"LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE!" Ty screamed.
I backed up, then went downstairs.
Last week I started nursing school, and it's been hard. Not school itself, but Ty and Ben have been scaring me. School has actually been very fun and I'm glad I'm doing it.
According to Lylah, Ben has been enjoying art school.
It's been helping him apparently. He's still depressed, but at least he's getting up and going regularly. His psych ward stay was a little crazy. They ended up keeping him for five days instead of three. Ben had a really bad breakdown while in there and punched a guy in the face. He was faking taking his meds, but he got around them knowing that. He told Lylah all about it though.
Lylah said he hasn't been drinking as much, but he's been stuck in his art. At least he's not killing himself.
There was a knock at the door.
I went and opened it, Celeste stood there.
"Dyed your hair?" I asked.
Celeste shrugged, "Thought Id try light blue. Didn't work for me, I miss the bubblegum".
"Here to see Ty?".
"Yeah, he hasn't texted me since Christmas Eve. I've just been really concerned. I thought I waited long enough for him to respond".
I sighed, "He hadn't taken his meds since then. Aaron left Detroit, Ben had a breakdown. They both have been in pretty rough shape".
"Can I see him?".
There was a fairly long scream from upstairs.
Celeste took a second, "Can I?".
I nodded, "Yeah go ahead, just be careful".
"Of course".
Celeste went upstairs.
Ty
I lit a smoke and threw out the empty pack. I swore a smoked a whole pack just this morning trying to calm down.
There was a knock on the door.
"Fuck off Jess!".
"Celeste actually," She took a second, "Can I come in?".
"No, fuck off to you too".
Celeste opened the door, "What's going on with you?".
I didn't answer.
"You not taking your meds you fucking doofus?".
"None of your fucking business" I glared.
"Ty, I was just worried about you. I wanted to come see how you were doing" Celeste sat on my bed.
