My Bestfriend Saved Me

Chapter 2

I went back into his room. He asked, "Why'd you take so long, Katy? Is everything alright?" "Yeah, I'm alright." I replied. "Be honest." "Hayes, I'm sorry. I'm not alright. I haven't told you everything that has happened since I moved. After I moved, I got really depressed. I didn't know what was wrong. So I went to my school counselor. He advised that I see a therapist, so I had Cameron drive me. I didn't want Nash to know because I was scared that he would tell you. My therapist diagnosed me with Severe Depression and she told my parents about me self-harming. I became extremely suicidal and I attempted suicide three times. I felt like I had nobody, even though I knew that I had you. I just felt like you would get mad at-"

Hayes interrupted me with a kiss. "Sorry. I just hate to see you upset. I've been waiting for you to come back to North Carolina to visit so I could do that." I started crying because I was overwhelmed with emotions. Happiness. Sadness. Joy. Distress. I felt every possible emotion and it was so confusing.

"Why are you crying, angel?" I managed to say through the tears "I've had a crush on you since I could realize those feelings. I just didn't know you felt the same. I've wanted to tell you all of this and I left it all bottled up inside and having let it all out, I feel lighter. Like a weight is gone." "Katy, you just let out so much emotional weight, and I'm so proud of you. I have something to tell you." "Oh geez. What is it Hayes?" I said. "Would you be my girlfriend?" Hayes asked. "Are you serious?? Yes, oh gosh a million times yes!" I yelled. "Great." Then Hayes got a text on his phone.
