"Give me ten days, and I can give you ten reasons not to die." Evan paused. "And if I can't change your mind by then, you can go jump off that cliff."

This is a story based on the song "Terrible Things," by Mayday Parade. Derek Sanders is the main character and he is the lead singer of Mayday Parade, and this is just my interpretation of the song from his point of view.

'Let's switch roles. This time I'll be the one to hurt you, to make sure I lose connections with you and have you cry at night. I won't be the one in pain, I won't be the one losing sleep, and ultimately I won't be the one to get hurt anymore. Let's see how much of this you can take because when you did it to me, I took so much of it. You don't realize how much it hurts until you experience it.' Niall Horan is the shy, quiet kid who walks past you in the hall- the one no one talks to. He's ignored and forgotten, chosen last in gym for the team, doesn't play sports- he's invisible. At least, to everyone except the school bad boys, Harry Styles and Zayn Malik. When Harry and Niall are paired together in AP Psychology for a project they're forced to see sides of each other that they didn't know existed. The two begin to open their eyes to just how alike they really are- and the troubled past the two share begins to catch up with them.
