He sat next to me with a smile "you're happy" he nodded

"Very"

"Why?"

"Because" that's new

He's been trying really hard to not push me away

And he's getting better

When he's sad he holds my hand when he's angry he makes me sit across from him when he's happy he tells me

"Well I'm glad you're happy" he chuckled.

The day went by and he disappeared, I didn't see him all day until that morning.

I walked by his locker and the smoke pit
No Michael.

My sister didn't know and James hadn't cared

Until I walked to my house at the end of the day

He say there head in his hands sobbing in my porch steps "MICHAEL!?" I shouted he didn't move

So I ran over to him pulling him for a hug as he cried "tell me?" He shook his head

"I-i can't it's to bad"

"Tell me" he shook

And cried

Body shaking

"I'm a monster" he shouted "no no no you're not" was he? That I couldn't answer

"Yes I am"

"Why? Would you think that?"

"Please tell me!" I begged

"You would never look at me the same way"

"Michael...."

He shook his head

He grabbed my hands harder

His face lined with hurt and fear. Tears rolled down his face and his eyes blotchy

"Let's go inside" I pulled him up

He didn't let go of my hands as we walked to my room.

"Okay" I sighed as we sat down "tell me please" he looked away ".....I've done some bad things in my past..." He began "Michael...I kno-" he cut me off
"No you fucking don't know nobody does they all think something bad! but I've done worse!!!"

His grip tightened on my hands

"I've killed people" he whispered no! No please no

"Michael...." I became sacred but I promised him I wouldn't give up

"I would never hurt you" he looked straight into my eyes and then forgot about what was happening. I just continues to stare into those green eyes I love so much. I didn't mean that? Did I?

"I know" truth is I didn't.

He smiled "Michael your past might be scary but I don't care about you were i care about who you are and what you're willing to become" he smiled hugging me

"I'm sorry you have to put up with my bullshit" he huffed "that's fine but as long as you'll put up with mine we're even" he chucked

And in that moment I didn't see Michael Clifford the boy everyone feared, I didn't see the dangerous leader of ANARCH. Instead I saw Michael Clifford the boy who just wants a friend.
