" They could have acted as if they wanted to save me, they could at least try to save me" 

A Teen boy who lives in an average neighbourhood sees that his ex-best friend 
 Lilly, across the street, is slowly starting to change,  Her smile slowly starts to fade,  her t-shirts become long sleeve shirts. He can hear the yelling start around 2  in the morning, almost every day on the dot. Her bright personality has changed and now she has become someone no one ever thought she would be. But people ignore it, they act as if she is okay...Is he the only one who can see it? 

a Teen girl walks in an empty shell of a body, day in and day out. wake up and pray that she is home alone, hoping she can sneak in a smoke before school,  walking through the house seeing the marks on the walls where items were supposed to hit her and instead missed, the marks on her when they didn't miss. going to school, just to get away from home, when really all she ever did was walked from class to class not paying attention to the world around her, thinking that she is fooling everyone. that no one will no. walking home, she starts to realize that people don't notice, or more that they do, but they don't care.  Except for one.  Owen. of all people Owen seems to notice.  she had tried so hard, how could he possibly know? was it the yelling? had he heard?  or was it the marks? but... but she had worn long sleeves......and what if she  doesn't want him to?   she could only guess what would happen if he did know... And what could she do about it? Nothing... but soon... she knows she needs help. if she ever wants to breathe again. she needs help...but does she go to Owen?
