"When you feel my heat look into my eyes, it's where my demons hide. Don't get too close, it's dark inside, it's where my demons hide" - Imagine Dragons - Demons

Michael was sat in the bathroom crying in a stall. He didn't usually come here, but it was crowded outside since it was sunnier than it had been in weeks. Winter was coming, that felt good to michael because he would finally be alone outside.

He sniffled more and more until he heard the bathroom door open and someone walk in. He gasped quietly as he tried to stop making any sounds.

He heard the click of a lighter and soon the smell of smoke drifted through the room.

Michael felt his heart stop when a loud hiccup escaped his lips.

"Hello?" A voice called.

Michael held his breath, mini hiccups still racking through his body.

There was a knock at the door.
"Are you alright?" He asked.

Michael bit his tongue.

Luke sighed and walked out the room throwing his cigarette in the sink.
Michael didn't leave the room for another 20 minutes to make sure the boy was gone. When the bell went he discreetly exited the bathroom and threw his lunch away.

Luke watched him leave.

When he got home he was greeted by his mum.
"Mikey! Enjoy your lunch today?"

"Yeah thanks mum." He smiled.
"Here's the clothes I ordered for you, they came today," she said handing him the bags. "You're still so skinny I don't understand."

"Just born that way I guess," he shrugged and laughed.
He said goodbye and walked to his room.

When the door was closed he immediately collapsed into fits of tears.
