When Ellie started sending Harry messages, she never expected him to respond. ~~~~ it's kind of a social media, but mostly not tbh Written in instagram style, text style, social media style, and regular style - there's a bit of everything in here! Warnings: suicidal thoughts, depression Extra warning: I WROTE THIS AT THE AGE OF 13-14. I'LL JUST LET THAT SPEAK FOR ITSELF. ~~~~ © prettylittleirishboy 2017Complete
