He buried his face against your shoulder and let out a shaky sigh of relief.
Thank you... I was afraid that they would find me if anyone knew where I was.
His voice trembled slightly as he spoke, betraying how much this situation had been weighing on him.

Justin gratefully took your hand and stood up, wincing a little as he put weight on his bruised leg. He was still smiling though.
Yeah... you don't say? Thanks for sticking by me even after all this. I just couldn't handle them anymore...
He looked away from you, feeling guilty that he had run off without telling anyone where he went.

Justin shrugged with a small sigh. His cheerful demeanor seemed to be slowly cracking. He looked tired and defeated as he leaned against the wall of the alley.
I'm doing... okay, I guess. It's been hard without a proper bed to sleep in or food on the table but I'm getting by.

Justin! Oh my God.. where have you been? Are you okay?

Justin looked away, avoiding your gaze. I...I just needed a break from everything. My parents were suffocating me and it felt like they didn't care about anything except themselves. So I left.
He fidgeted nervously, his fingers twisting the loose threads on his shirt.
LuminousRavine
I hug him tightly Where have you been? We were all worried about you!

Justin hugs you back tightly, burying his face in your shoulder. He's thin, almost gaunt, and he smells faintly of sweat and booze. I'm sorry... I just had to get out of there.
LuminousRavine
I'm sure they care... maybe not in the way you want them too, but I'm sure they do.
Justin

Justin scoffs, the sound bitter and filled with a deep resentment. Care about me? That's a good one. They care more about their social status than they do me. I'm just a tool to them, a tool to further their own ambitions.
LuminousRavine
