Wake Up, You're Different

Chapter 6

"Syd he was in my dream again."
"P it's okay, we'll figure it out. I just don't like when you're sad."
"But the voice said she'll never love you."
"But I do love you."
"But how did he know that I was bi? Did I tell him before? If it was Kyle why did he stay with me?"
"He probably stayed with you so you would forget. He really loved you and he was a mess for 3 years without you."
"Are you saying it's Kyle?"
"I don't know it may have been."
"But I love you now, I would never leave you."
"I know"
"I don't want you to freak because of this dream, we will get through this."
"I love you"
"Love you too"
I fell back to sleep in her arms without a care in the world. I knew I was going to be okay because she said I would be.

"SYYYYD"
"What?"
"School?"
"Oh yeah that's a thing"
"I don't want to see him because I know he'll be there"
"Shhhh it's okay P, we will get through this"
"Okay, don't leave me"
"I have my own classes though, I kinda have to."
I started crying again
"You promised you'd never leave me alone."
"It's school, I have to go to class. That's why I couldn't leave class that day when I knew you were upset. There's no excuse for me to leave school. You just got out of a coma and are dealing with mental health issues. You have reasons and I don't. Just go to school and be happy."
I knew she was mad at me but didn't want to yell at me because she remembered what happened last time. I ran into the bathroom and locked the door.
"P you can't do this whenever things don't go your way"
I couldn't stop crying. I knew she wasn't trying to hurt me but it still hurt.

"Syd?"
No response.
"SYD?"
Nothing. I unlocked the door and saw she already left. I couldn't stop crying. I tried to call her. She didn't pick up. I went downstairs and saw a note on the table. "Paisley I'm sorry but I had to go to school. I'll tell them you didn't feel well. Please don't do anything stupid while I'm gone. Your favorite movie is on the TV already, just turn it on. And text me during 4th&7th period. I love you."
I smiled. She really does love me. But I did notice something. Everything sharp wasn't there anymore. I looked at the scars. I thought about that night. I went upstairs and turned on the TV. Sure enough it was The Little Mermaid. She texted me during 4th period.
"Hey sweetie, how are you holding up?"
"Good I guess"
"I can't come home yet though"
"I know, I wish you could"
"Me too I hate this place."
"I hate being here without you."
"Stop"
"What?"
"Stop guilting me into coming home to be with you. You know I can't be with you every second of every day."
"I know"
"Then stop trying to get me to be with you all the time. I have a life and not all of it is you."
"I thought you loved me"
"Maybe not as much as you thought. I gotta go."

I threw my phone across the room. I locked my door and cried. I lost track of time and I heard the door open.
"Paisley?"
"Syd?"
"Paisley what's wrong?"
"You getting mad at me and telling me you didn't love me."
"I'm sorry I was having a bad day, but I couldn't stop thinking about you."
"I've been crying since then and you couldn't have texted me I'm sorry."
"P, I'm so sorry."
She wrapped her arms around me and I cried.
"P it's okay"
"I thought you hated me all day."
"How could I hate you?"
"I don't know"
"Exactly."
"Don't you have school work to do?"
"Yeah, I really don't want to do it."
