Red. That's what I see. I see red on my arm. In lines. That's what I remember before Luke came in screaming trying to get my to stop. I wasn't there though. Not really.

Now I'm laying in my own bed in my room that I have to myself. Well sorda. Luke stays in here most of the time to make sure I don't try to kill myself again.

It's been weeks since I've found out about my mom. I open my eyes and stare at the white ceiling. Luke rubs his fingers along my sides.

"What are you thinking about?" He asks me in his sleepy voice. I look over at him and just smile. How did this even happen. I've been so happy with Luke.

Yes I know our relationship kinda happened fast but he's the only person I can actually feel something with. I don't feel numb around him.

"Ronnie."

"You." I say. He scrunches his eyebrows.

"Why?"

"Because you're the best thing to ever happen to me." I look back at the ceiling. "I was so stupid to try and to kill myself last week."

"Ronnie-"

"If I had actually succeeded I wouldn't have you anymore and I can't have that."

"Ronnie-"

"I mean I just can't imagined what would have happened if I hadn't sat at your table that day..."

"Ronnie-"

"Or if you weren't at this treatment facility and somewhere else."

"Ronnie!" he says repeating himself for the fourth time.

"What?" I ask finally stopping my rambling.

"I'm in love with you." I feel my breath hitch in my throat. I look at him.

"What?"

"I am completely 100% in love with you. Nothing and no one is ever going to change that. You are the literal light to my life. I was bad before you got here. You helped. And I love you. Yes you're fucked up. But I am too. Hell everyone in here is that's the reason we're here. But you're the best kind of fucked up. You're mine and I want it to be like that forever." I stare at him for a minute. I place my hands on the sides of his face. I pull his face in and kiss him.

This kiss was different from the rest. It was soft and gentle. It was filled with love. A feeling I've never had with anyone before Luke. He is my everything.

I break the kiss and rest my head on him. "I love you Luke." He smiles and pulls me back in again.
