I gasp for breath as I stutter open my eyes.

I sit on the bed, laying my back on the headboard.

The room was pitch dark, I look at the time and find it to be three in the morning.

I sigh.

I turn to my left, to find Felix but he's nowhere near.

I see the washroom lights were on.

I help myself out of the bed walking towards the washroom not before drinking a bottle of water.

The bathroom door was open.

I scrunch my eyebrows in confusion walking in.

I see Felix standing in front of the mirror with his bloodshot eyes.

The mirror was broken, and I see his hand bleeding.

" Felix " he looks at me.

He looks helpless.

I run near him, letting the water out, I grab his arm and place it under running water.

He had cuts from the broken glass.

I noticed the light on his mobile phone go off.

It didn't take a genius to know that whoever called him made this impact on him.

After helping him clean up and putting on bandages we walk out of the room where the transparent glass door leads us.

It was a beautiful lawn view in front of us.

We sat down at the beginning of the stair.

The weather out here was cold. The cold winds were getting the best of me.

I pulled the hoodie more in an attempt of making myself less cold than it is.

He sits beside me, clenching his jaw and looking deadly towards the tree in front of him.

I know better than to ask him to open up.

I just sat beside him to let him know I'm here just in case.

He was there for me too.

Our after-hours are weirdly twisted and we end up being with each other without even our knowledge.

He stands up and walks in, I follow him.

He lies flat on the bed, I turned to face him.

He looked troubled, I grabbed his arm and started drawing circles.

We spent the rest of the night without talking and me drawing circles until he fell asleep soundly.

At least I hope so he did.

I know I should not get involved in his things but I did not like seeing him being troubled.

I thought he was okay but it does not seem like it.

And I don't know what to do to help him.

I just want him to be okay and whatever that's bothering him to stop.

He doesn't deserve this.

I sigh.
