He started Everything

Chapter 15|| I like him

I sat down on the same soft couch, right in front of Megan.

She looks at me. Waiting. I looked at her" What?" I asked annoyed. I shouldn't be towards her.

" Nothing, something on your mind?" She asks leaning back. I laid down" I don't know" I huffed.

" Don't know what?" She says deeply. I looked at her" I don't know where to begin" I looked at her softly.

I curled up and pulled the thick pressure blanket over me. She keeps it for anxiety. Under the couch. I feel a little better.

" Where do you want to start, remember, sessions are 3 hours now" she reminds me. I nod" Start with the bridge" I whispered.

I told her about me and the bridge... and reed. Told her I showed him the scars. She was very proud of me to tell him.

I told her about him more and what the people do at school. I hate them. So much.

" Why do they hate you?" She asks. I sniffed" I don't know Megan!" I whispered harahly.

" Do you osuh them? Push them to hate you?"

" No, I don't do anything but be there" I stared up at the ceiling.

" how do you feel about it?"

" I want to die sometimes, I want to cut, but cut where?" I shrugged.

" Cut into my horrid ugly skin again?" I started" Make more ugly scars on myself" I croaked.

" You know what you should start doing?" She asks.

I looked at her" What? Be more fun?" I asked vaguely.

She shakes her head" No, this is a goal for next time, ok?" She says. Im scared.

" Wear short sleeved t shirts until I see you again, keep your long sleeves rolled up, show off a little skin" she smiles softly.

My worst nightmare " I-I can't" I whispered hugging the pillow.

" Yes you can, just believe in yourself Dahlia, Just block out what people say, if they judge you, they judge you, they can't hurt you if you let them" She states.

I huffed" Fine" I looked annoyed. She looks at me" Dahlia, it's ok to be afraid" she comforts me.

I sat up" I am very afraid, no one will ever want any of this!" I held out my covered arms.

She nods" But in time, everyone has a soulmate, just a matter of ti—"

" Before I decide to change myself for them?" I questioned her.

" No, I was just saying matter of time before that right person finds you"

I walked into my house. Empty? Quiet? I —

" Your home, finally" Someone says behind me. I
Jolt and throat punch the person behind me.

A person collapsed on the floor of my porch and gags. I realized it was Reed.

I gasped " Reed, shit, I-I m sorry" I awkwardly pat his back.

He groans" Trying to kill me?" He winces sitting up. That was kinda funny.

I chuckled " You snuck up on me, that was your fault" I smiled down at him groaning. Such a stupid kid.

He huffs" I have learned my lesson" he starts getting up.

I stepped back" Why are you here?" I hugged myself. The rain pitter patters on the ground.

He turns around" I was waiting for you to be home" he rubs his throat. I kinda feel bad.
