Wow! This has been a fun one to write. I hope you are enjoying it as much as I am. First of many Song Themed minis to come I hope! I have so many planned!!
I wanted to wait until the end to post this a/n but in light of it being September already, I knew I couldn't wait. So I want to address a huge component of this story: depression and mental health.
As many of you know Michael Clifford, and 5SOS in general (Calum literally just shared on his IG story for the suicide hotline) are huge advocates for mental health. So please, if you are struggling, seek help. As Ashton has said, "there is no fucking shame in that."
I know you don't know me and I don't know you, but I do genuinely believe from the bottom of my heart these three things about you:
You are important
You matter
You are valuable
Please look your beautiful self in the mirror and say that because it's true.
Below are links to seek help.
I love you
