writers pov -

you knock on the door to your best friends house as tears stream down your face

it was almost 11pm but you were sure she wouldn't mind

as the door slowly creeks open you were met with the face of her roommate

"oh hi." you put your hood up in an attempt to hide the fact you had been crying

"uh. is mel home?" you ask awkwardly

"sorry, she went out with some friends" the man spoke

you honestly didn't even know his name. you would just occasionally see him whilst hanging out with your bestfriend mel.

"are you okay? do you want to come inside?" he asked, you could tell he was worried by his tone

"do you know when mel will be back?" you ask, semi interrupting the man.

you didn't mean to, you just wanted the comfort of your bestfriend

"no I'm sorry" he said in a soft tone

"but I'm willing to wait with you until she's back if you'd like?" he offered

he sounded very sincerer.

"I don't wanna bother anyone" you hid your face, looking down at the floor

"I promise you won't be" he smiled

"if that's okay then" I smiled. I knew he couldn't see it.

"come in then" he spoke softly, stepping back and allowing you to walk in

you took your shoes off while he walked to the kitchen

"do you want some tea or water or anything?" he asked whilst you walked past the kitchen door

"I'll have some tea if that's okay" you replied quietly

"of course it is. go sit down and put whatever you want on the tv. I'll be in, in a second"

and with that, you did as he said

he seemed very kind. you almost regretted the fact you hadn't talked to him sooner

you put (whatever show you want) on the tv and took your hood down.

it was obvious you were upset and had been crying but you were basically 100% sure that he knew that already.

he walked over to you, handing you your tea and sitting down across from you

"I'm james by the way" he smiled softly

his smile was very welcoming

"you must be y/n?" he questioned

you nodded in response

"if you have to talk about anything, I'm free to listen" he spoke

"but if you just want to sit and watch tv that's fine too" he smiled

you felt a lot better

sort of safe.
