S.n's P.o.v

We get inside the house

— Tom, i talked to Edd before i went after you, and he said it's not the first time you leave in the middle of going out with them

— Yeah

— Why?

— You know...i'll leave anywhere if i spiral out of control

— But...Edd told me you do that often...is it- that frequent...?

— ....Well i... — He gets extremely uncomfortable

— Sorry, that was a stupid question...

We remains silent

— When you walk away, what's the reason? Like, you always say "Edd I'm going home"?

— You know the reasons, and sometimes i don't even get to warn them, i just- leave  without a word, but-...that's actually the first time i warn Edd while in the verge of tears...I usually tell him before it happens, but this time it happened out of nowhere, you get me right?  i don't wanna sound crazy

— No, i get it, Tom! you're not crazy! why don't you warn them though?

We sit on his bed

— Sometimes i only admit i need to go home when i feel the tears rolling down, ok? i know i can make them worried thinking i vanished, but it's not like my ego would let me admit that i'm sad

— Oh Tom, i'm sorry again for making you feel like a freak! i really didn't want to...

— Ah- S.n i-...forget what just happened there- i'm sorry- like- really, it wasn't your fault, ok? I didn't- snap because of what you said, just forgive me for- i don't know...taking it out on you...

— Oh Tom...

— Now you get why i always walk behind everyone? So no one knows what's happening to me, hahah... — He laughs trying to lighten the mood

— So...what made you feel like that? — I ask

Tom pauses

— I...- I was afraid they'd notice my eyes and-

— But you don't usually get this sad because of that, something else happened didn't it? did A.n say something stupid?

— No- I-

—  Tom... why did you scream...?

—I was confused, ok!? ...sorry- i screamed again

— It's all fine!

— ...I was confused...there was just- too much going on in my head, i don't even know why i think they'll see me this way, i'm just a fucking game cheater anyways...

— Tom, you think like this because- i mean, look at all the thinks you went through! please don't be harsh on yourself for something you know perfectly why you feel, it's not your fault, and you know that! ....give yourself some time...
