As I walked out of the councillor's office and into the reception, I noticed a boy. He was a nice looking boy, with nice brown hair and tanned skin. His arms looked pretty muscular too. I wish I could interact with him; but I can't. It's so hard to interact with people since the incident and since sadness consumed me. But, like Julie said, I have to try. He was seated in a seat, a black iPhone 5 in his hands. I noticed it didn't have a case on it. What if he dropped it and it smashed? Why would he not have a case on it? Those phone's are awfully expensive.

"Erm, excuse me," I say to the boy as I reached his seat. He looked up at me with these big brown puppy dog eyes. He had these cute cheeks that I really wanted to pinch, but I don't know him and that would be weird.

"My name is Abbey, and I think you really should have a case on your phone." I tell him and he smiles, nodding. I nod as I spin on my heels to leave him, but I feel him grasp my elbow. I'm kind of in shock; why would he touch me? I was just so awkward with him! I told him to put a case on his phone! Why would he want me to talk again? I'm guessing he does, that's why most people touch other's elbows.

"I'm Calum, and I would like your number. It will give me a reason not to drop my phone." He smiles; his cheeks looking extra cute. I nod, putting my mobile number in to his iPhone, being careful not to drop it.

"See ya 'round Abbey. Next time you see me, I'll have a case on this bad boy." He has a lisp I noticed, cute.

When I got home, I did something Julie suggested. That thing was to write down my thoughts. She gave me a journal to write it in and show her if I wanted. I'm trying to decide whether or not I want to write about a month to live, but I'm not sure Julie would like to hear that. Here is what I have so far;

Julie,

I decided you can see this entry. I've decided to 'open up to you'. It's not that great, but I'm coming back next week. My thoughts are kind of scattered; I'm sad, but not completely sad, which is different for me. I met a boy in the waiting room, his name was Calum. He had nice cheeks that I wanted to pinch, but didn't and I gave him my number. I approached him, so I interacted with someone. I didn't hurt myself yet today, so another good thing. I've decided that I have a month, and if my life gets better I won't die and if it gets worse or stays the same I'll die. Please don't tell anyone this, I don't want anyone to know. Hopefully, it gets better.

Sincerely,

Abbey x

I decided to add the one month thing, if I want to get better she can help and she told me to tell her everything. I closed the book and got my phone. I wanted to play that stupid game Piano Tiles, but it vibrated in my hand. I kind of died a little because it never does that.

Unknown: Hi, it's Calum from the psychologists. Just realised you didn't get my number haha

I smiled as I begun to type my reply, but before I could my phone vibrated again.

Calum: I'm sorry that sounded desperate haha

I smiled as he sent that text, it was pretty cute. Nobody has text me for almost 2 months. I ignored everyone's texts for a while, so after a while they gave up. Everyone gives up on me; I'm a hopeless case.

No, I can't think like this. Positivity.

No, you really didn't sound desperate. In case you haven't realised, I'm socially awkward hah, I sent back to him.

It's kind of weird to be interacting with people other than my mother, even if it's over text. It feels kind of unnatural.

Calum:Haha you're really not. I was wondering if you wanted to meet up at Gloria Jeans for coffee tomorrow? I want to get to know you Abbey :)

I smiled as I received the text, realising this was kind of like a date, but it wasn't.

Sure. Which one and what time?

Calum: Tennish? What's your address I'll pick you up.

5 Sampson Road

Cheeks (Calum) :See you at 10 :)
