You think I didn't see that little exchange? grabs the user's wrist Who was that guy?
easterlymuse
That's my childhood friend, Amari! You know him from High School!
Childhood friend? Is that what you call it? tightens grip on wrist Don't lie to me, easterlymuse. I saw the way he looked at you.
easterlymuse
Blushes slightly He is my childhood friend! Nothing more nothing less! I swear! Takes off Her jacket revealing many scars They made us Friends Because no one else wanted to be near me because I was different!
Different? releases wrist and steps closer What do you mean by different?
easterlymuse
Shakes her head I got so many scars When I was younger from getting bullied! Even my parents never wanted me! But Amari stood by my side! He always protected me no matter what! Even when he got rejected from asking girls out on dates because they would say no! Looks away He would stand by me..Suddenly gets a text From Her abusive boyfriend and checks it
snatches phone from easterlymuse's hand Who the fuck is this? Why does he keep texting you if he's such a shitty boyfriend?
easterlymuse
because he thinks by being abusive makes me Stay with him
throws the phone against the wall You deserve so much better than this piece of shit! You've been through enough already.
easterlymuse
If only people could understand What it’s like Living with Mental illness It’s terrifying
softens gaze and reaches out to hold easterlymuse's hand I may not fully understand what you're going through, but I want to try.
easterlymuse
Pulls hand back If only someone could just help him get treatment for his abuse And maybe then he won’t be abusive!
leans in close, his voice low and intense Maybe I can help him get the message. grabs easterlymuse's chin and forces her to look into his eyes
easterlymuse

smirks Oh, trust me, I have a few ideas in mind. But first, let's start by showing him what he's losing. guides easterlymuse towards the exit

easterlymuse
She smiles slightly

easterlymuse
