Billie

tw- mentions of drugs, depression, suicidal thoughts.

"It's been 2 weeks since I've talked to Melanie."

"I still can't believe she would do something like that." I vent to Finneas.

"Well maybe she realized how much of a bad influence Eli had on you and stopped wanted someone to know to protect you?" Fin replies.-----------

Melanie told him about the drugs.

Well... he asked her out of curiosity about what was going on with me because he claims he knew something was wrong. He says I was acting weird, like not my normal self. And he told me that mom asked him what was going on with me. Mom and dad started to worry.

Which really worried him.

He went to Melanie first because he knows I tell her everything.

He knows that I'm in love with her, so he just suspected that she knew because of how close we were, especially right now.

And ever since I found out that she told him. Haven't talked to her in forever it feels like.

Still pissed as fuck at her. She betrayed me. But I can't always stay angry at her.

Next time she calls, I'll try to swallow my pride and pick up the fucking phone.

Finneas leaves the room making me feel like total shit.

These two weeks without her were an absolute hell.

I was ignoring her, letting my anger get the best of me.

But life was hell without her.

I didn't wanna be alive anymore.

I was going through a low-grade depression.

Melanie

Is she ever gonna talk to me again?

I know she hates me for what I did, but she can't stay mad at me forever.

I've called her 48 times in the past 2 weeks alone, maybe I should just give her time, but I can't stand not talking to her. She's the love of my life and she's purposely not talking to me because she can't control her anger. I know Billie. She can't be okay. Whenever she ghosts me, or her friends like this, she's either going through depression and hiding it from everyone, or pissed, or both.

I think its the third.

I can't take it anymore. I need to hear her voice and know she's okay.

I start sobbing from all the tension bottled up inside of me.

I dial her number, giving my hope another go, after all its been 2 days since I've tried.

I doubt to hear anything.

I know its only been 2 weeks. But this isn't fair what she's doing. I was trying to protect her.

With all hope lost, I think to hang up, but then I hear a familiar voice.

"Hello?"
