I'm just at the door of my parents apartment that Justin is staying at. I promised him I would come back so here I am. I hope he is still here.

I open the door and I walk around the house nobody is here. He's left I think to myself.

I walk into the bedroom and Justin is lying on the bed on his back coughing I walk over to the bed and I see a needle in his arm.

"Oh my god" I rush over to him and putting him on his side and he is sick all over the floor. He nearly killed himself.

"What are you doing??!!" I ask utter shock putting my hand over my mouth in shock. Looking at the state of him the needle in his arm and the now sick all over my floor.

"I'm so sorry my mum texted me saying Seth, my mums boyfriend has been looking for me and that he is going to kill me" he says sniffing rubbing his nose. still coughing struggling to catch his breath.

"Do really you want to kill yourself??" I say getting annoyed at him. He nearly choked on his own sick. He nearly did die.

"No" he stutters rubbing his face getting annoyed at himself.

I have made such a big mistake trusting him so quickly. Tears form in my eyes. I'm such an idiot. I never wanted to regret trusting him. I should have listened to Ashley. Everyone is going to say I told you so.

"Why would you do this??" I ask him, looking deep into his eyes.

"I'm addicted to it. It's like when I use drugs it makes me forget about my shite life about everything that has happened" Justin says a tear falling from his eyes. I don't want him to have to turn to drugs when he is sad.

"You can speak to me" I say, reaching for his hand which he takes. He leads me into the living room and we both sit down on the couch.

"It all started when I was five" Justin starts looking at the ground but every so often looking up to make sure I was listening. I didn't actually think he would trust me. We have only known each other not even a day.

" my mum had this boyfriend. When she would be passed out, he would come into my room and come to my bed" Justin says but he stops and looks at me, tears in his eyes. I squeeze his hand softly.

" at first he just would put his hands on me but then he started making me put my hands on his" Justin stops himself and starts crying.

" he-" he stops looking at me.

"He put his fingers in  my mouth and start touching himself. He only was there for a couple of years and he did other stuff" he says his voice shaking.

"Seth, the one that hates me, keeps thinking i stole his money so he beats me up and every time my mum chooses him every single time. I can't believe I just told you that. " Justin cries my heart absolutely breaks into pieces hearing him tell me what he has been through just one of the things.

"I don't deserve to be loved why would somebody want to go out with a drugie like me. I'm the dangerous ones" he says looking right at me.

"Yes you do" I say bringing him into a hug.

"Everyone deserves to be loved" I whisper into his shoulder.

" I want to be there for you and I don't think your dangerous" I whisper.

"I need help. I don't want to be like my mum and I don't want to be doing drugs. I don't want to get drunk and high all the time" Justin whispers into my shoulder.

I want to help him but I don't know how. Then Ashley pops into my head. Her mum's a nurse so she might know what to do.

"Can you trust me?" I ask Justin. He looks at me and nods slowly.

"I know someone who can help you" I say with a small smile which he returns.

I grab my phone and texted Ashley to come to the apartment and that it was urgent.

I thought Ashley was going to kick of last night but I guess she understood why I did what I did. I am so thankful to have a best friend like her. I know she is still worried but I know she will fully come around eventually.

I grab my old phone from my bag.

"I want you to have this so you can contact me when you need me. It's my old phone and my number is on there and please just call me when ever you need me, please" I say begging him to. He hesitated but he takes the phone from my hands.

"Thank you so so much" Justin whisper tears still present in his eyes.

" please stop thanking me" I whisper bringing him into another hug. I just want to hold him and tell him everything will be okay.

I know that nothing is ever going to be okay it takes time but I'm ready to help this boy there is just something about him that is drawing me closer and closer to him.
