Claire's P.O.V
I walked out of my room, with mum by my side and went down to the kitchen to see McDonalds on the table. Just like in my dream, oh my god is this gonna be like when I dream about something happening and then it happens!

I ran upstairs and put a tighter sweater I so my sleeve wouldn't slide down and then went back down.

"Are you okay?" Taylor asks. "Yeah, I'm fine." I say. "Okay." She says sitting back down. I smile knowing that I just got away, with lying to my mother.

I sit down and starting eating my chicken nuggets. "I got you a lemonade, if that's okay." Mom says. I look at her and nod my head. "Are you okay Claire?" Mom asks. "Yeah, I'm fine." I lie. "Claire, I'm not stupid, I know that you are not fine. What's wrong?" She says. "Nothing." I say. I really don't want to tell my mother, about what's been going on with me. I just do not have the guts to tell her. I've had depression since my parents died, I guess your parents dying messes you up pretty well.

I finish eating, throw my garbage in the trash bin, and sit back down on the couch pulling out my phone and play temple run. When mum finishes her food she goes upstairs and I can hear her on the phone but don't bother to go question her about it. After about 10 minutes mom comes downstairs and tells me that the boys are coming over, I just nod my head and go back to my phone.

I loss track of time playing my game but I lift my eyes up when I hear the door open and the boys all trump into the house, they all say hello to me and I greet them all back with a smile. They all start talking to Taylor, until Liam leans towards me and whispers in my ear, "Can I talk you in your room?" I nod and start walking up the stairs with Liam on my heels.

I sit on my bed and look at him waiting for him to start talking when he says, "Claire depression is a serious disease but very easy to spot."
