*Alex's Pov*

"Can I go to the bathroom?" I ask my social studies teacher.

"Sure," he says handing me a hall pass.

I leave the room and I head to the bathroom. I walk in and I hear someone crying in the stall. I walk over and knock on the door.

"Hello are you okay?" I ask I get no reply but the stall door opens revealing Faith, "What's wrong?"

"I'm so sorry," she cries.

"Faith what's wrong, are you okay?" I ask crouching down beside her.

"I'm so sorry Alex for everything I put you through, I found out my grandma got cancer the day before school started and I just got so angry that this was happening to me and nothing bad ever happens to you so I took it out on you," she cries.

"It's okay I'm here," I say pulling her into a hug, "And my life isn't perfect, my parents have been going through a messy divorce since the summer I broke up with Conor, I hadn't seen my dad in a year until I came home to see my mon's tongue down his throat."

"Oh my god, I'm so sorry," Faith says wiping her tears away, "My mom just rang to say my grandma probably won't make it to the end of the week."

"Oh Faith," I say hugging her really tight.

"Why are you being really nice to me when I have been a bitch to you all year?" Faith asks.

"We have been friends since we were in nappies, I will always be there for you, and I know how bad news can make you do some shitty things," I say standing up.

At lunch we sit together catching each other up on everything. I keep some things to my self like my dream. It feels like old times when we would sit in our rooms and talk to each other on skype.

I think it's time, time to let go of the truth.
