that scar up his hand, oh lord,

that scar,

it, it was fresh, from a few days ago atleast. it looked like something that would happen if he was attacked, assaulted,

abused.

ellise looked at mike with nothing but pure concern in her brown eyes,

" mike... w-what are these, who did this to you ? " she asked, her hand slightly patting him.

" i- it's not of your concern. it's fine. " mike lied straight through his teeth, it was so obvious. too obvious to el atleast.

" mike, stop lying. please. "

" i- " mike was on the verge of tears, but he didn't want to let loose infront of her.

without another thought, ellise pulled mike into a hug, a soft, comforting one.

" it's okay, you got a shoulder to cry on. " ellise said, as mike broke down onto her shoulder, his tears were as pure as his soul, like fragile icicles falling down onto the soft, chartreuse shaded grass.

mike couldn't help it. how could he tell her ? he can't just tell her that, his father would kill him, and her.

mike started to stop tearing up when el started whispering into his ears telling him it was okay.

he looked into her eyes before looking down.

" you can tell me. i may not be at the best terms with you, but you're still part of my life, mike. "

" i- well... my father- he, he.. " he felt like a teenager again, trying to explain to others about his father without stuttering.

 " he did this ? you know you can tell others, you know that ? right, mike ? "

" well, yeah but.. he's just, a psycho, he'll kill me. "

" he wouldn't, are you okay, mike ? do you need something, you do realize that this is not healthy for your mental health, right ? " ellise asked.

you're all i need.

" nothing, this, enough is good. "

ellise wiped his tears.

gosh, so pretty.

so kind .

" i'll get you something, "

" no, wait- " mike cut off, he felt better with her arms around him.

" little mikey still want hugs ? "

" ughh. " he groaned.

ellise returned and got him some ice cream. 

" at least you don't live with that bastard. " ellise said.

" yeah. "

" just avoid that piece of shit. "

mike chuckled as he bit into the ice cream.

" okay, one more thing. " ellise asked, turning towards him. " friends ? " ellise asked

more than that, i wish.

" sure. " mike said, as they shook hands. they chuckled, as you belong with me played in the background.

friends.

we are friends.
