Talk To Me

From the first day you saw him sitting on top of the old railcar through the chain-link fence, you felt a connection, but little did you know how it would end for you both.

What he sees in your eyes the day you meet is the same look he sees reflected in his mirror- pain, isolation, depression, and something darker.

Years later, your life's path brought you two together again, and fate started to turn. There was no way out, no way but one.
~~~~~~~~~~~

You try to hide your scars with the kitchen towel. He pulls the towel away and caresses your wrists while looking into your eyes with heartache.
"Talk to me."
You reply, "There's nothing to talk about."
Both of you knew it was a lie.
Can you trust the boy you met behind the chain-link fence with your dark secret?

In the end, will love be reason enough to live?
Is Faith and Hope enough to bring these two together?
Will the joining of their hearts and bodies be what they need to survive?

Trigger warning: Depression. Mental health issues. Discussion of self-harm and childhood s/a. (Not romanticized or glorified or explicitly written.)

(Disclaimer)
I use Grammarly ONLY as an aid in proofreading. The most it does is show me where commas should be and where 'you' should be 'your' (I have a bad habit of dropping the r, lol). It also points out where there is an extra space to remove and where I forgot to add an 'and'. It tells me Tae should be The and I say NO, It does not help me write the story or write my story for me.
