The Boy Next Door

I Won't Leave

Sorry I haven't been active in so long but I'm back:)))

I opened the door and saw him laying there, I felt a tear rush down my cheek. I never meant any of this to happen, he might of made some mistakes but he was still my best friend. I walked over to his bed and placed my hand in his, it was cold. I saw cuts running up and down both of his arms, he has been hurting for a very long time and I hadn't even noticed. I was a terrible friend. "Y-you came." Ollie spoke bearly above a whisper. "Of course I came Ollie." I said while whiping away some of the tears that had stained my cheeks. Before he could say anything else I hugged him, I missed him so much. It was hard not having someone to talk to. "I missed you so much." I said still hugging him. "I did too, Sam. But I'm here now, and I won't leave again." he spoke. I pulled away from him and grabbed his hand , "I won't leave, I'm here now and I'll always be. You mean the world to me and I was stupid to ever think that you were the blame in both of our families." I said squeezing his hands a bit.

*10 minutes later*

Ollie was now asleep which was good since he needed the rest. I checked my phone it was now 1:00am, good thing it was a Saturday. I heard the door click open and I looked up and saw my mom. She walked quickly over to Ollie's bed and put a hand over her mouth. Ollie was like a son to her, everyday after school he would come over and we would play in my backyard. I missed those days, but it won't be long till we can both relive them. "I know" I said, "It's bad". She looked over at me tears now running down her face. "Doctors are saying he tried killing himself." she spoke looking between Ollie and I. "He's been through hell, and I've signed all the paper work so he can stay with us." she said a small smile on her face. "Wait you mean he can live with us?" I asked now surprised and extremely happy. "Yup, all we need to do is get his stuff from his house and we're good to go." she said before pulling me into a hug. "I love you sweet heart, don't you ever forget that." she said before pulling apart both hands on my shoulders. I nodded, I wouldn't be able to forget.
