○○Elijah POV○○

I decided to go to his room.I could hear him from the hallway unpacking and loud music.I walked in and closed the doot behind me,and handed him the granola bar.

"We needa talk." I say as he looks at me weird.

"Nigga why you giving me sweets.Am I a kid to you?" Jahseh makes a weird face.

"Just eat it nigga." I say and sit down on his new bed. "I already said we needa talk,so stop tryna be funny and shit."

"Nah,I'm just speaking fax." He opens the loud wraper and takes a bite.

"Why the fuck are you here first of all?" I ask him with frustration overtaking me.

"Calm down,I didnt wanna come,but I had to." He takes the last bite.

"Ion wanna be rude,why the fuck did you come here then?Like you didn't wanna,which is a lie,since you tapped my sister." I furrow my eyebrows.

"I had nowhere to go.My mama got arrested." Jahseh looks down.

"Quit the bullshit little boy" I start yelling "You came here because you wanted to.Just tell the fucking truth."

"Nah,I didnt.And stop fucking yelling at me,I dont gotta tell you nothing." Jahseh starts unpacking again.

I hear the door open and close.When I turned around,I saw Aspen with blood red eyes.I turned away and ran through the door after opening it.I knew she wanted to be alone with him,which hurts.Fuck I tried to guide her,but she didnt listen.

I feel a tear slide down my cheek as flashbacks play through my head.

○○Aspen POV○○

I couldnt deal with the noises coming from our guest bedroom,which I can now call Jahseh's room.This will become a hell sooner or later.

"Why the fuck are you here." I ask him as he looks at me with watery eyes.

"Your mama told you." He flattens out.

"Listen." I come next to him and place my hand on his shoulder. "What happend,happend.I can't let you take this alone."

He looked at me,not sure what to say.He put his arms around my waist and burried his face in my chest.I wrapped my arms around his neck and whispered things like 'it's gonna be okay' , 'I'm here for you'.

"If you dont wanna talk about it,you don't have to.We can sit in silence and deal with this together." I say.

He stays silent for a while after letting me out of the long hug.I grab his hand and make him look up at me.

"My advice right now,is to not keep your feelings burried in." I smile at him.

"Okay..." He sits me down. "My mom,doesn't work anywhere,and you know my dad left us when I was a small kid..."

I carress his arm as he continues to speak.

"Well,she earned money by pleasing other men." He sighs.

"It's okay.." His eyes start to fill with tears and I get out my phone.I play the song he played me at the party.

The light melody danced into our ears as I see a smirk appear on his face.

"You like this song?" He asks me trying to hide the little sobs.

"It gives me peace." I respond.

"What my mama did,wasnt enough to keep us living,so I started a career." He looks me in my eyes.

"Are you about to tell me-" I get cut off.

"Yea,this my song." He looks down "It is unbelieveable but it's true.I call myself XXXTentacion.Sorry for not tellin you earlier."

"Wow- I didnt expect this." I say rather shocked.

"This has been keeping us alive..." He sighs again.

I go in for a hug allowing him to cry in my chest.Jesus.Is he serious?I know its not the time to joke,but what the actual fuck?My 'friend' is a famous rapper?

"Listen,you will get through this,and you arent alone." I hold him.This is the first time any boy showed their emotions in front of me besides Elijah. "Now you live here,and I'm right next door to this room.In case you want to talk,we always can.I'm here for you.I will forget the past if you do too."

He looks up at me and I see his dark eyes.Dissapointment was shown and regret,and he put his head back down.

"Aight." He quickly spills.

"I'll bring you some water.Want any else from the kitchen?" I ask as I let him go and stand up.

"No,I'm not thirsty.I can handle myself." He lays down on his bed.

"If you need anythi-" I get cut off.

"You are next door,ya you already told me." He rolls his eyes.

He is acting so biploar.I exit the room and go into my bed.I bury my face into my pillow and realize that I am trying to support my rapist.
