Jahnnie Drabbles☆

☆Depression☆

It was late at night, Johnnie is currently seated on the couch. He hasn't really moved around, or even left the house today. He glances out the window. it is night. He sighs at the realization. Then sees Jake's Tesla pull into the driveway.

Jake gets out of his car and walks to the front door. He knocks on the door, looking a little tired.

Johnnie realized that Jake forgot his key. He gets up and walks over and opens the front door. His eyes looked drained.

Jake walks in and looks at Johnnie. "hey johnnie... you alright? You look tired"

Johnnie just rolls his eyes at the question. He moved out of the way so his roommate/best friend can come inside.

Jake comes in and walks to the kitchen. He opens the fridge and grabs a beer before walking over to the couch and sitting down. "what have you been doing today?"

Johnnie kinda shrugs at the question. He sits back on the couch, fidgeting with one of his rings. His face looked drained and emotionally exhausted.

The punk takes a sip of his beer and looks over at Johnnie. "are you sure you're alright? You don't seem like yourself..."

"I'm fine!" Johnnie suddenly lashes out before covering his face with his hands. He didn't mean to lash out, but it just happened.

Jake is taken aback by Johnnie's sudden outburst. "woah, johnnie... calm down... you don't seem fine. What's going on?"he asks towards the emo male.

Jake watches as Johnnie gets up and he starts to get concerned. "are you sure you don't want to talk about it? I'm your friend, you can talk to me."

Johnnie felt his heart ache from his depression. He just looks at Jake for a moment, his eyes have started to get bloodshot and watery, since he's holding his tears back.

Jake could see the tears in Johnnie's eyes and he could tell that Johnnie was about to cry. He stands up and walks over to Johnnie. "hey... come here"

Johnnie sniffles, as he stays still. He didn't budge or anything, just stayed still. His breathing is getting shaky.

Jake gently pulls johnnie into a hug. "come on... let it out. You're safe here..."

Johnnie hides his face into Jake's shoulder, sniffling as soft sobs left his trembling lips. He bit his lip rings to try to give his mind something else to focus on.

"Just been a rough day..." Johnnie mumbled as he lifted his head. His makeup looks a bit smudgey from the tears that slipped out of his eyes.

Jake wipes the tears from johnnie's face. "it's okay... I'm here for you. You don't have to talk about it if you don't want to... but if you do, I'm here to listen. You know that, right?"

Johnnie looks down as he gives a little nod. Looking at his hand tats as he had a blank look on his face.

Jake pulls johnnie back into a hug. "come on... you need to get some rest. You're clearly exhausted. You can tell me what's bothering you in the morning, okay?"

Johnnie shakes his head. "it's just been with all the shit online.. it's just that small percentage...plus with my depression getting to me recently, I just have been in a slump. I was sick last week so that didn't help either." he briefly vents.

Jake nods."I know it's hard, but you can't let those people get to you. They're just trolls who don't have a life. You're so much more than what they say about you. And your depression will get better... I'll make sure of it. I'll be here for you every step of the way. You're my best friend, and I don't want to see you like this."
