"(Name)!" A young raven haired boy jumped on the (H/C) girl.
"Hehe! Hey Luffy!" She put on a fake smile.
"Are you okay?" He tilted his head.
"What do you mean?" 'He can tell...'
"(Name). We've been friends for years. I can tell when your feeling your worst." Luffy's hat shadowed his eyes.
A few tears fell down her face.
She was leaving her only friend.
"Luffy...I-I'm...m-m-moving to (IslandName)." She fell to the floor.
"That's funny (Name)!" He laughed.
"I'm not joking..." Her tears grew heavier.
"Alright, alright! I totally believe you." Luffy giggled.
*SLAP*
"I'M NOT JOKING LUFFY!" She yelled.
"DON'T LEAVE ME PLEASE!" He didn't want to accept it.
"I'M SORRY BUT I HAVE TOO!" She hugged him.
"I want you to remember something," She kissed him," I love you and always will."
She ran off.
That was the last time he saw her.
He told Shanks to check out the island but they said that didn't know her.
He even looked around the islands around him, but nothing.
She was Gone.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Kaku scoffed at Luffy.
"Have you ever met a girl (Name) by any chance?"
Luffy's eyes widened at the mention of her while the crew was confused.
"What do you know about her?! What did you do to her?!" He yelled.
"She used to talk about you all the time. You were her only friend." Kaku ignored him.
"WHAT HAPPENED TO HER?!"
Kaku grabbed Luffy's collar.
"Look.
Let me tell you about a kid named Steven.
He's slowly running out of things to believe in.
Every couple of months his mom leaves him,
For no good reason his step-dad beats him.
Not too many friends, only ever had a few of them,
But recently they don't want anything to do with him.
Always eating lunch in the bathroom stall,
He just wants to feel normal and be cool again.
Always feeling like the outcast, he's been going crazy ever since his dad passed.
He needs guidance and advice but instead
He only has breakdowns and flashbacks of the car crash.
It's been getting harder everyday, if he was still around everything would be ok.
'Cause his dad was always the light at the end of the tunnel,
But now that same damn tunnel is looking dark and grey.
He keeps quiet in the back of the class,
And when the bell rings Steven hurries home fast.
Scared to death the other kids will kick his ass on the long walk home.
'Cause its happened in the past so
He's getting used to the black eyes and fat lips.
But all he's got is a fake smile and cut wrists.
Wishin' he could walk right up to them and show them the scars.
And say look you're the reason that I've done this.
Maybe they would finally understand and go back to how it was before it all began.
But he's just a little different so they taunt him and they beat him.
Yeah it's all just fun and games, they don't give a damn," Kaku's grip tightened his grip on Luffy's shirt,"
His older brother ain't around, in and out of jail, hanging with the wrong crowd.
He's been doing coke, smoking weed, getting drunk all his life he's a shame.
No, he's not too proud," Tears were coming down on Kaku's face,"
Now his habits are rubbing off on his little bro yeah, but guess what?
Little did he know that every time he did a line,
Every time he lit a joint,
Every time he took a shot he would set the mode.
So Steven's sitting in his room getting high now,
Doors locked, music up, with his lights out.
He just takes another toke til his room fills with smoke,
5-6-7 hours til he knocks out.
Now he started stealing pills from his mom.
8-9-10 at a time and now they're gone.
And maybe for a moment all his problems seem to fade,
But the high fades too after not too long.
And that's when it really sinks in and that's when it hits him.
That these god damn drugs won't fix him
Curled up on the floor, can't take it anymore.
Now he's talking to God 'cause he's the only one that gets him.
On his knees, looking up, can't stop crying
'God I know we haven't talked in a long time.
But this time I really need you. Please God help me, say something.
Just give me a sign, because now I'm falling apart and
I don't think that I can do it. Please God, give me the strength.
To pull through it. Tell me, Should I give up? I could end it all right now.
I just don't know if I'm brave enough to do it.
'Cause there's gotta be a better way than suicide.
Try to wait it out, give it time, you'll be fine.
But it's been so long and I still haven't been able to get rid
Of all the thoughts that I feel inside. So sick, so angry, so mad.
And to top it off no one even knows that."
That's when he stood up, wiped his tears, walked over to his desk.
And got a pen and a notepad," Kaku's hands were bleeding from him clutching them so hard,"
He just couldn't see it getting any better
So on a cold dark night in December, Steven knew exactly what he had to do
But first he sat down and wrote a couple letters.
One to his step-dad, one to his mother,
Couple to the kids at school, one to his brother.
Bringing them the pain that they once brought him.
Tear drops on the paper one after another.
Yeah, I hope that you all feel guilty.
'Cause I'm broken now and you can't heal me.
And now you're all an accomplice in murder.
Each and every one of you have chipped in to kill me.
So the reason that I'm writing you this evening,
Is to say goodbye and to tell you that I'm leaving.
But don't hold your breath 'cause I ain't never coming back.
Sincerely Yours, Steven."
Kaku dropped Luffy.
"Put (Name) in Steven's place. That's what happened to her."
"That's the story of my little sister, (Name)."
