I haven't seen Aiden but I sure as hell have heard him. It started a few nights ago. I was in my room, these walls are thin and I heard Danny start yelling at Aiden. He didn't sound happy at all. But I didn't hear Aiden replying so he must have not been too upset. Then two nights later I heard it again only this time I heard Aiden's deep voice match the pitch and anger of his dad's. And this time I heard it all. It went something like this:

Aiden: I just want to leave.  

Danny: Then go. There's nothing and no one stopping you from walking out that door. 

Aiden: You know thats not what I mean.

 I feel like I understand what Aiden was saying and I really hope he doesn't do what I think he's thinking of. He can't. He's so young, too young. And then two or three nights after that, I heard Aiden's voice for the last time. I just heard him saying something a being sorry and not meaning anything about something. He sounded sincere but his parents didnt seem to buy it by the sound of their voices. I guess they would know him better than me. Those fake sorrys could fool me. They sounded so real and desperate coming from that husky voice. His voice was shaky now as he began pleading for something, maybe forgiveness? I heard him say one last 'I'm sorry, I really am.' then it went silent. And it's been silent since. The last time I saw him was weeks ago. I hope I see him  soon. But a big part of me feels that I won't be seeing him ever again and it kills me.
