I had a reason to live.

I had always been a loner at this school. Nobody seemed to care about who I was and what I liked.

Now I had someone.

Well, some people.

But the thoughts were still there.

They whispered horrifying things into my mind, telling me that I am worthless and that I dont deserve to exist.

They won't go away.

And as I made marks on my skin, I tried to fight, fight the feeling that controlled me for so long.

But I couldn't.

My thoughts would never let go of me.

As I walked to school, I caught up with TJ. "Hey Cy," he said and I tried to smile. He noticed.

He always noticed that I couldn't smile.

And now I couldn't back away from the question that was lingering on his lips.

"Cyrus, are you okay?"

It's been too long, too long since someone actually fucking cared about how I feel.

And the tears came.

I tried to hold back how I felt, but with TJ around, I couldn't hold back.

He held me in the middle of the sidewalk as I cried and babbled.

Once the tears went away, I told him.

"I'm depressed."
