peters pov

i'm in a mental hospital. they took my phone and everything so idk what to do. i'm roomed with this other guy.
"why are you here?" the guy asks
"oh umm suicidal, idk why tho i'm not" i say
"oh" he says
"what about you?" i ask
"oh i'm gay but they said i was suicidal" he say
"well i wouldn't be here if my ex girlfriend didn't tell her dad about all this stuff" i say
"why'd she tell her dad?" he asks
"she thought i cheated but i didn't have much of a choice with the girl i cheated on her with" i say
"so you were raped" he says
"no... no i wasn't, i could have stopped her but didn't" i say
"hmm" he says
"did her dad tell your parents or something?" he asks
"no my parents are dead, he signed me in to here because i was living in his house as a foster kid ig. i have no family left" i say
"how old are you?" he asks
"15 how old are you?" i ask
"i'm 16"he says
"i'm peter" i say
"i'm jj" he says
"nice to meet you" i say
"you to" he says
i lay down in my bed.
"dinner" the lady says
"come on peter" he says
i follow jj to the cafeteria. we get our food and he starts to eat but i just stairs at my plate.
"why are you not eating?" a lady i wanna say in her mid 60's says
"not hungry" i say
"eat or we're gonna have to force feed you threw a tube" she says
i turn towards my food and i take a bite of the pizza. i look back at her and give a cheesy smile.
"swallow" she says
i swallow the pizza.
"was that so hard" she says
"was that so hard' like shut the fuck up" i say mimicking her. she walks away.
"it's ok peter, everyone's forced to eat here" jj say
"dam" i say
"yeah but it gets easier over time" he says
"yeah" i say
we finish eating and go to a group therapy thing. then i go to bed. i wonder what y/n's doing right now. idk and she didn't care about me so why should i care about her. i lay down and try to sleep but i can't. i hear someone crying. it's jj.
"you ok" i say
"yeah, i thought you were sleeping" he said
"it's ok, i don't really care if you cry, we all do" i say
"true" he says
"what's wrong?" i ask
"my dad hates me and beat my mom everyday and i just can't take it" he says crying
i hug him. he hugs back and after the hug he goes to kiss me. he does for a second before i pull away.
"sorry i just- just broke up with someone and i don't swing that way" i say a little confused on my feelings
"it's ok, sorry" he says
i forget about it and just hang out with him for the next day.
