So the chapter starts in Kathy's point of view but switches back to DJ. Also play the song above for some parts cause it fits so well with the moment.

Kathy's pov.

I had been looking for him all day. I knew Ryan would tell him about our conversation. I told him he could. I figured DJ would like a warning. So I knew he was probably avoiding me. I decided I would look for him after school and wait by the main door he always leaves through.

I wait for two minutes after the bell when he bursts through the doors and nearly runs into me. " DJ," I say, "there you are! I've been looking everywhere for- hey are you okay?". I notice his eyes are shining with tears and his breathing is off. He pushes past me and sprints down the sidewalk to his house. I call his name but he doesn't turn back. Teri comes around the corner with a smile which quickly goes away when she sees my concerned face.

"What's wrong Kat?" She asks. I fill her in about the talk with Ryan and then about just now. She nods then says, "Go after him.". Then walks away to her moms car. I think for a second before running towards his house.

I'm there in about five minutes. There's no car in the driveway which means Nanna isn't home. I knock on the door but there's no reply. I grab the nob and slowly open the door. It's unlocked. Weird. I walk into the kitchen looking for DJ but all I find is a note on the fridge.

Have to work a little later at the diner tonight sweetie. Be back at around 9.
Love you.
-Nanna

I put the note on the counter and walk down the hall. The bathroom light is on and DJs hoodie is on the floor right outside the open door. I can hear crying. Loud sobs. I quietly make my way over to the doorway. And what I see makes me wanna cry too.

DJ is sitting on the bathroom floor with bleeding arms and tears running down his face. "DJ" I say.

He looks back at me and all I can describe the look in his eyes as, is broken. Just shattered. Like a broken glass.

Now we're just staring at each other. Both afraid to make the first move. Say the first word.

Because honestly? What am I supposed to say?
