America is so much different than my hometown Doncaster. I miss my mates. I miss my teachers and the way schools are set up there.

Here, there's hours. Like, literal 1-hour long classes. And there are 7 every day.


Anyway- The house is nice. It's got three floors. (A basement then two floors)

The basement is all mine. I cleaned it up and put my big bed down there, a small couch, my TV and game consoles, and I even hung color changing lights around the entire place. 

Mom's room and office are on the 2nd floor so I can play my music loud or even shout and I wouldn't disturb her. It's really nice. 



I wasn't nervous about school.. then I got here.

The boy with the sweater, jacket, and beanie really intrigued me. He looks sweet. 


But the way he flinched when I tapped on him- that worried me. 

And the blood. I seen it. 

I've seen it before- self harm. My cousin back in Donny committed suicide. I seen when he went through but I was young and dumb.. and I didn't understand it. 

Now I do. 

And I don't want what happened to my cousin to happen to this boy



When he noticed the blood, he left the class room.

I couldn't help but notice that he was back here alone.. and when he walked past, all the other students stopped their work to look up at him.. and when he left, the whispers set in.



When the boy didn't return to class, I picked up his bag and walked to the teacher's desk after everyone had left.

"That boy, he's still in the bathroom. I'd like to bring him his bag and check on him. Can you tell me where the rest room is, Mr Davis?"

"Sure, of course.. Being in a new school must be scary. But it's very kind of you to want to help Mr Styles"

"Styles... but, sir, What is his first name?"

"Harry. He lives here in town. I'm good friends with him mom" the teacher shrugged and pointed out the bathroom

I nodded to him as a thank you then let myself into the mens room
