( imagine you aren't having a good day and Richard notices lol idk )

Y/N: " I finally had enough today and I slammed the exit door open as I leave the building today was just not it I knew I shouldn't have come today that was a bad idea because now I was an emotional mess and I was crying tears were falling down my face and I just couldn't step one more foot into school or else I'd lose my mind so I just stood outside by myself and let the tears fall the tears I've been keeping inside of me for the last few days after hearing my friend passed away " .

Richard: " I saw y/n hurriedly walking towards the exit door and she looked very upset so I just decided to follow her and that's when I found her outside against one of the walls crying I just walked up and gently put one of my hands on her shoulder "

Y/n: " I feel a hand go on my shoulder and I almost turn around moving it away but I stop when I realize it's my professor and I just cry into his chest where I buried my face "

Richard: " you wanna tell me why you're so upset" .

Y/n: " m-my f-friend passed away... "

Richard: " oh kid I say and my arms fly up wrapping themselves around her and I pull her into a tighter hug "

Y/n: " shouldn't you be somewhere else professor I say in a weak voice "

Richard: " since when do I give a shit about teaching some teenagers history or whatever I teach these days I chuckle then I pull away from her and I pull out my flask handing it to her once I've opened it I think you need several sips of this "  .

Y/n: " I gladly take it and I about 4 gulps then I hand it back to him  "

Richard: " see alcohol does come in handy but it never fixes your problems it only takes them away temporarily I wink at her then I take a few sips myself "

Y/n: " I never expected you to be the type to comfort someone "

Richard: " I have a daughter sweetheart I know what it's like to lose someone important and I've helped her through many things like that "

Y/n: " thank you I smile now I'm gonna have to get home I can't sit in class today "

Richard: " I don't know why you're even here today no one ever comes or goes somewhere once they hear someone has died "

Y/n: " I thought I could be strong that's why I still came today "

Richard: " yeah no that's always a mistake to think that especially when it's emotional pain my dear now I'm gonna drive you home it'll make my boss hate me even more and I want him to I smirk now let's go say and I start walking "

Y/n: " you're a weird one professor "

Richard: " it's Richard professor is stupid and I know I'm weird but hey you gotta be weird to deal with life it makes it a little more interesting "  .

Y/n: " well I'd say I agree with you on that "

Richard: " because you're weird to aren't you? "

Y/n: " I guess I am and I smile at him " . 

Richard: " you're gonna be just fine kid just know this is life it sucks but we gotta deal with it "

Y/n: " life is pretty shitty this way "

Richard: " believe me I know " .
