i usually don't put trigger warnings, but i feel like for this chapter it needed to be done.
tw: drugs & substance abuse, sexual abuse.
always the fool with the slowest heart.
JJ MAYBANK was a troubled young man. Being blamed for his mothers absence, ending a friendship with someone he loved most, and even being abused by his father.
JJ was never the type to talk about his what he was feeling. Even if he was suffering — he would rather do that alone, and not accept anyones pity.
Instead, JJ needed a coping mechanism. His old coping mechanism was Amir. JJ would spend hours ranting to the boy — not expecting him to give any advice or anything, but he just wanted somebody to listen to him.
Since Amir was out of the picture — he needed a new way to deal with his problems. He had never meant to get addicted to drugs, but that's where life had lead him.
When he had taken the pill known as Molly — all of his problems disappeared. He would sit in his bathroom high out of his mind, but at least he didn't have to worry about anything. Right?
Another was that JJ and Maria were not dating. One night at a party, JJ was high as a kite when Maria found him. She proceeded to take advantage of him, and JJ didn't have the energy to get rid of her.
Why does he keep going back to Maria? In some weird fucked up way — he thought he deserved it. 'It was his karma' he thought.
Night after night she would take advantage of him, and when he refused to do anything, she would threaten to harm herself.
JJ would cry himself to sleep every night. Wondering how the hell did he end up in this situation.
