Song Of The Day: Happy Little Pill- Troye Sivan! Quite Ironic Really!

*Jerome's POV*

'So Slap That Button With Your Forehead and G'Night Everyone!' I said trying to sound happy.

To be honest, I'm Not in the best of places at the moment. I'm in love with my best friend and to make matters worse, he has a girlfriend. She a total number of things which I probably shouldn't say.

'Hey, Jerome? Are You Feeling Okay?' Said Pete so I guess he noticed that I was faking things.

'Yes, I'm Fine! Why?!'

'Jerome Listen Buddy. I have had depression and I know the signs. You're Not Yourself and You can sort of tell that you are faking.' Pete said really seriously.

'Peeeeettttteeeeee, I'm Fine! My Life Is So Busy and Team Crafted didn't work as we were always fighting. I'm Just So Tired' I said Lying completely through my teeth. Well What could I said? Pete, I'm in love with Mitch who has a girlfriend. If he had feelings for me, he wouldn't be dating Donna!

'Jerome, It's Okay! I know Mitch thinks more of you than you actually believe!' Pete said out the blue. Then I realized that I said that out loud.

I just looked down at my red arms which were full of scars. People say that cutting is really bad but if it's a way out, I will do anything. If their was a pill for stopping you falling in love with your best friend, I would be the first to try it.

'Jerome, Tell Him How You Feel! You would be surprised.' Will whispered hoping that I would listen to him. Of Course I Didn't..

'Do You Think it's that EASY! Telling everyone you're gay and that you love your BEST FRIEND! I just want to be alone at this moment in time! IS IT THAT HARD?!' I might have over reacted, I mean I love Pete (Not Like That) But he is my punching bag at this moment! 

'Okay, I'm Going To Go Now,' Pete Said Quietly, Great I have lost another friend 'Don't do anything stupid, Jerome'

I didn't even reply, I just ended the skype call. It's Time, I'm Not Wanted Anymore!
