Broken (Thalico)

The Light Behind Her Eyes

((hey guys so I'm really sorry for the short chapter last week, I promise this will be longer. Hopefully it will let me put a title this time, but if it doesn't, I will put it at the beginning of the chapter again.

Am I the only one who is absolutely in love with the song Wait And See by FIR? I just absolutely love it, the lyrics are so true and meaningful and beautiful, you definitely need to give it a listen.

ENJOY))

The Light Behind Her Eyes

"Nico! Nico wake up!" Thalia shouted, shaking the sleeping boy, they had had a long night last night, but it was Tuesday night and they had already skipped far to many days already, and she really didn't feel like having to re-take ninth grade.

"Nico seriously get your fucking ass up or I'll pee on everything you love." She gave him a hard shove, pushing him from the bed he currently occupied and onto the cold floor.

"What the hell?!" He roled over, glaring up at the girl as he rubbed the sleep from his eyes. It was way to early for this, how can she expect him to be up 'till four am because she decided to take him to a Falling In Reverse concert and then expect him to get up and ready for school two hours later? It was quite ridiculous that he was expected to get up out of bed each day in the first place.

"Oh come on, get over it." Thalia rolled her eyes, helping the boy onto his feet, "Get a shower and dressed then come take your pills." She instructed, exiting the room and making her way to the kitchen, but not before hearing Nico shout, "Shut my door Thalia! God! I mean seriously, haven't you people ever heard of shutting the goddamn door?!"

She laughed, "Stop making Panic! At The Disco references and get dressed already, you can close your own door."

"What ever," he mumbled, refusing to get up and shut his own door, because no matter how cold and hard, the floor was better than actually getting up and doing something with his life.

'whats it matter? No one will notice you absence anyway.'

Nico grit his teeth, trying hard not to listen, and for once his stubbornness came in handy, because he was determined to spite that stupid little voice in any way possible. So with that, he pushed himself up off the floor, grabbing a change of clothes and making his way to the bathroom.

As Nico took his shower, Thalia started to get the boys pills together for the day, pulling the multiple bottles from the cabinets and humming "Satellites" by Sleeping With Sirens to herself. As she pulled the different pills from the containers, placing them in a bag for Nico to take to school. she bit her lip, squeezing her eyes shut, telling herself it is definitely NOT ok for her to take a few. That she could definitely NOT down a few of his anti depressions and that she would not talk to Butch today. Thalia was a drug addict, of coarse, no one knew except for herself, and of coarse Butch, but that went without saying. It probably wasn't the best thing for her to prepare Nico's pills each days, but if she didn't do it, who would? Jason wouldn't, and Megan wouldn't be sober long enough. Granted she worked and was sober for that, but every moment she was home she went straight for the liqueur, which disappeared quite fast between Megan Nico and herself, of coarse her mother was always either to tired or wasted to notice.

Thalia turned away from the medication, taking a deep breath and promising herself that if she could finish this without popping a few than she would slip away and use her last joint during lunch, all thoughts of steering clear of Butch leaving her mind.
