Two mentally ill teens,
Both dealing with trauma in different ways,
One overthinks and stays to help others,
One never opens up and cant trust anyone,
Both not knowing how to love yet one fell for the other,
You see the problem.

It had been about two days since Kaden and I had started staying with Bayley and Noah. Bayley had made it very clear that she still wanted nothing to do with me.
Kaden took the whole mafia thing quite well I guess. Bayley had done the same thing she had done with me to him.
Things seem different. I don't know if it's just me but things seem to be wrong, like I'm to normal, like I'm to... happy.
"Lionel." Bayley says as she snaps me from my thoughts. "Hm?" I hum and she just sighs. "I'm done." I look down at my hands where she had cleaned my knuckles from punching a wall earlier.
I stand from the toilet seat and come chest to chest with her, she goes to step back but my hands grab hold of her waist. She freezes as her breath catches in her throat and she looks up at me. "Lion let go." I shake my head no and dig my fingers into the top covering her skin.
"You know I still don't know what colour your eyes truly are they are always changing colour under different lights." Her head falls as she looks at the ground but since we are so close her forhead falls onto my chest.
"Hazle, they are halze." She mumbles. I put a finger under her chin and lift it up then put the fallen hair behind her ear. "Bayl-" Before I can talk she pulls away from my hold on her and lets out a breath.
"No, no you can't be like this, it's simply just mafia business between us." She says and turns walking out the bathroom. I turn and start putting away the first aid things. One I've put the stuff away I place the box under the sink in the cabnit and leave making my way into the living room where Noah was sat with a bowl of crisps next to Kaden who had a bowl of popcorn.
I walk over and sit on the other sofa and try and watch the movie they had put on the TV but all I hear is them munching in the background.

6 months later
Noah leaves with Kaden to go do whatever the fuck they said they was going to do I wasn't really listening to them. "Bye!" Kaden shouts at the top of his lungs and then the front door slams shut.
"Bayley I'm going to make food, do you want anything?" I don't hear anything so I walk upstairs and go to her room and knock on the door. When I hear nothing I open the door to be met with an empty room.
I close their door and then turn around, I check the other rooms including Elena's room and Bayley was nowhere. "Bayley?" I shout and I'm met with silence once again.
Athena comes running up the stairs and circles my feet. My brows furrow and I go down the stairs with Athena on my heals. I look in the kitchen, nothing. I walk through the living room to the door that leads to the backgarden and I see her laying in the grass.
I open the door and walk out, closing it and then walking over to her.
She had her eyes closed and was in the starfish position. "Bayley, what a-..." Before I finished her eyes open wide and she kicks my legs from underneath me and then climbs on top of me straddling my waist whilst pinning my down.
