The Boy With Depression

chapter 1

*** Bella pov***

Bills. Bills. And more bills. God, just please help us get these paid. Please! Ugh. I need fresh air. Im going on a walk to the beach. I love the beach. I love the ocean more. I love the feeling of being under water. Its like everything goes away. The pain. The hurt. The struggles. Everything. My dad always said i had salt water on my veins. I believed him. I still do. I walked along the beach with the waves crashing over my bare feet. I was wearing black short shorts and a white tight tank top. It was a sunny day. No clouds were out. The sun was shining. It was just a beautiful day. I walked. And walked. And thought about everything. I walked until i saw something in the distance. Something red. I walked over to see drips of red on the sand. Blood. I followed the trail. It stopped at a tree. I looked up. There was a boy. He was laying in the tree. He had a pair of ripped jeans on. And a white t-shirt that adorned his torso. He was very muscular. He had dirty blond wavy hair. He looked to be bleeding. He looked like he needed help. Well its his lucky day. "Hey! You up there!" He suddenly shuffled around a bit. Then he fell from the tree with a thud. Ouch. "Oh my God! Are you okay?" I went to help him. He looked scared. His arms were bleeding. And he had a bloody nose. Poor kid. He looked about my age. I sat beside him. He had his legs stretched out and he was looking at his cut up arms. "What the hell happened to you?" I asked him. He looked at me. Wow! His eyes were gorgeous! They were big and brown. You couldn't resist them. Even if you wanted to.

"Some boys." Was all he said. And i wasnt going to question him about it. It seemed he didnt really want to talk about it.

"Come on lets get you cleaned up." I stood up and helped him up. "Im Bella, by the way." I giggled. We shook hands.

"Jessie." He stated. We walked back to my house along the shore. Soon we came up to a light pink tiny wooden house. That was my house. It has 5 rooms and a basement. The basement was mine. We walked in and Sky ran over to me and gave me a huge hug.

"Bells! Where were you? Oh...and who is the cutie?" She was only four. I laughed. I looked over to see Jessie blushing. How cute!

"This is Jessie. He will be staying with us for....a while." I started to pull Jessie down the stairs to the basement. I opened the door and we walked into my room. I pulled him over to my bathroom. I turned the sink water to warm and put the first arm under. He cried out in pain. I can only imagine the pain. I gently rubbed the blood off of the wounds. I then put the other arm under. He winced and a tear prickled down his pale face. I wiped it with my thumb. "Shhh. This is the last arm unless your an alien." He laughed lightly and i smiled. "Made ya laugh." I whispered as i dried his arms with a towel. I bandaged his arms and gave him some painkiller. He still had on his ripped and bloody clothing. I went up to the kitchen where we kept the phone. I dialed Tyler's number. He was my best friend. He is like a brother to me. Everyone says we would make a great couple but we dont like eachother like that. Ty helps my mom out usually. And he stays at our house most of the time. Tyler is 18 but he helps us out alot. Plus we provide food and shelter for him.

"Hello?" Tyler's voice filled the phone.

"Ty its me. I need you to come down here for a while. I kinda need your help bro. And bring some of your clothes okay?" I told him. The clothes were obviously for Jess.

"Bells are you okay!" He questioned.

"Yes. God Ty! Im fine. Just come on." I told him.

"okay okay. Jm on my way. Why do you need my clothes?" He asked. I laughed a little.

"They are for a friend of mine who is staying with us for a while." i explained.

"ohhh okay. Well im on my way. Bye Bella." I tild him goodbye and hung up. The i dialed Austin's number. He was likey other brother. He is 17. Him and Ty are really good friends.

"Ello Bells!"

"Hey Austin! Waz up!"

"Nothin much. Im about to leave my grandparents to come back to yalls place." He told me. He usually stayed with us too. Ty slept on the pull out couch. And Austin slept won Tommy's mattress with Tommy.

"Okay cool. Well i will be here." I told him.

"Umm....Bells. Why did you call exactly?" He asked me.

"I just wanted to inform you that i have a friend over and he will be staying here for a while!" I quickly told him. "Bye Austin see ya soon!" I yelled then hung up. I turned around and Jessie stood there smirking at me. I laughed and hit him on the arm.

Tommy ran in the room laughing. Jessie picked him up and swung him around. Tommy screamed and laughed. Sam and sky ran in next. "Jessie Jessie! Play pirates with us! Pleaseeee." They all begged. I laughed.

"Of course! Come on!" Jessie yelled. They all ran around the house acting like goofy pirates.
