Austin's POV

Okay, something is going on and nobody is telling me. Once we get back to my place we sit down on my bed. "Okay, Alan what happened with Kellin tonight?" I ask in a serious tone. Alan looks like he is contemplating on telling me.

"Well you see Kellin has an....eating disorder. Just don't tell him I told you. But I also think there is something else he is not telling us. When we where younger he also did something else that's not in my place to say." I look at Alan in disbelief. A bunch of questions start to flood into my head.

"Kellin had an eating disorder? When did this start?"

"He said about 9 months ago."

"Is he seeing someone to help him?"

"No, he said he will when it gets bad." Alan says with a sigh.

"But if it has been going on for 9 months, it's bad. He should go see someone." I say.

"I know I told him, but he won't listen. He can be stubborn when he wants to be."

"Do you think he talks to Vic about it? I mean Vic is no doctor but he can kinda help him."

"He probably does since Vic did run after him when Kellin ran into the bathroom at the restaurant." All I do is nod.

"So do you do anything that I don't know."

"You already know I really like to drink, is there anything you do that I don't know?" Alan says looking at me.

"I already told you I like to smoke in detention." I saw him give him a side ways smile.

"How about we both try to quit our addictions."

"Okay, yeah let's both try." I say with a tight smile. Alan slides down to lay down dragging me by my hands down next to him.

"This is nice, just laying here." I say.

"Yeah. I wish we can stay here and not have to go school and deal with problems or school work."

"That would be nice, but sadly that's not life. Life will throw problems at you but you can and will make it threw, slowly but surely."

"Preach." Alan says looking up at me smiling which only makes me smile back at him.

Vic's POV

I brought Kellin back to my house, well my parents house. Not only because of his parents arguing and I don't want him to have anxiety attack, but also so he doesn't hurt himself. The look on his face is clear distraught. We are sitting on my bed, my arm around Kellin. He is staring off into space meanwhile I'm staring at him. "Do you wanna talk about it?" I say to him softly. I know he ran into the bathroom because of his eating disorder. But maybe he will feel better if he talks about it.

"What's there to talk about? I'm just a shitty kid who has problems." He looks at his fingers as if they are more interesting. I gently grab him by his hips, which are very bony and scoot him over to where his is sitting in my lap.

"Okay first of all your not a shitty person, and second of all you don't have problems. You are a very unique person who have some hills to climb." He looks over at with the 'bitch please' face.

"Well those 'hills' are very high and I just want them to go away. And I do have problems. For fucks sake I have a fricking eating disorder and I self harm. I have been self harming for years now, the eating disorder has been happening for 9 months. Let's face it I'm never going to be able to climb those 'hills'. Those hills have become me, I am the hills. The hills are me. I'm always going to be the 'basket case' type of person. I'm a complete and utter mess. It's just a matter of time until those hills kill me. Those 'hills' will consume me." Kellin says with tears in his eyes. It pains me to see him like this. But that has to be the longest I ever heard him talk. Sorry that was off topic.

"Kells, baby. Those hills will never kill you. You know why?" He shakes his head no. "Because your stronger then those hills. Just give it time, the hills will go away only because you defeated them, you conquered them. Just wait it out." I tell him. He just sighs.

"That's what everyone says 'give it time.' 'Wait it out.' I'm so done with waiting, I just want it to all go away. I'm sick and tired of feeling this way. I'm just done. This is not where I belong." This time the tears just come out of him.

"Babe this is where you belong. I will miss you, Alan and Austin would miss you if you leave. You belong here. I know your tired of this pain but trust me when I say give it time. You will get passed this. There will be bumps in the road but you will get passed it. I promise. I will be here with you every step of the way." I say wiping his tears away with my thumb.

"P-promise you will be here to help m-me?"

"I promise." I give him a smile, in return he gives me a tight one. I lay back with Kellin still on my lap. Kellin lays his head in the crook of my neck and I wrap my arms around his waist.
