Andy's POV

I walk in my house after school and my dad looks at me.
"What's wrong?" He sighs. "Alex had a severe panic attack earlier."
I sigh.
"So? What could I do. I was at school." He just shakes his head and I walk upstairs to see my boyfriend at his desk passed out from tiredness. I shake him and he opens his eyes but closes them again. "Did you eat today?" He nods keeping his eyes closed.

He rubs his head.
"Its been raining all day." I nod. "Babe be honest. Are you okay?" He shakes his head. "I don't know." He sits on my bed.
"Why do you keep having panic attacks?" He shrugs. He's hiding something.
"Babe?" He dodges my eyes.
"It's nothing baby." I make him look at me. Tears spring to his eyes. He try's running past me but I push him back down. "No. Talk to me!" He dodges my face.
"Just leave me alone Andy. You already proved you love Juliet." I stare at him. He thinks I don't love him.
I just rub my face.
He pushes me off of him and goes out the door but is soon brought back in by our dad.
"Don't let him leave Andrew." I just nod.
Alex lays on his bed. I see him pull 2 things from the drawer next to his bed.
A blunt and a lighter.
He lights the blunt.
"Alex what are you doing." He breaths in putting the blunt to his mouth. "It's called drugs." He closes his eyes.
He finishes and puts it away.
He stands up giggling and walks over to me. "H-hey." I sigh.
Our dad walks in.
"Alex!" Alex giggles. God Alex stop.
My dad walks over and grabs Alex's arm dragging him out.
I tiptoe to the stairs.
"Alex when will you stop doing this!" My dad yells at him. "Your only 16!!!!" Alex flinches. "I'm in pain dad!" My dad sighs. "That doesn't mean you need to do drugs and drink!" Alex sits down. "I want to die. It's fairly simple actually." My dad rubs his eyes. "Grounded 2 months and your going back to public school." Alex literally falls out of his chair. "N-no. Please." My dad shakes his head. "Your going back tomorrow. That's the end of it." Alex runs past me, not noticing me and runs to our room.
I walk over to our dad. "Dad why?" He sighs. "I have to start working more and I can't leave him here. Alone. And you'll be there. He'll be fine." He goes to his room and I go to mine.
I see Alex looking at himself in the mirror.
He turns to me. "Hi." I smile. "Hey baby." He stretches and puts his earbuds in laying down.
He's hiding something.
