Chapter 1: The start

Hunter's POV:

"Hunter," Aries called. "Hunter. Come on we're gonna be late."

Aries has been my best friend since we were like 7. Yeah, a long time I know. Tonight was the biggest night of our high school careers. It was prom and neither of us had girls to go with so we were going together (with the boys.) Anyway, let's backtrack to the beginning of this year.

A new high school. A new start. Great, I hate it here already. I open the door and thank the uber. Some girls giggle as I walk by.

Yeah so I'm tall and have black hair, plus blue eyes but I'm not really all that. This is gonna be a rough year. Huh, here we go. I had to go to the school where my mom worked. Not fun.

I push open the doors and a group of girls surrounds me. I hate all this attention I'm getting. I don't want it. River high never treated us like this.

Girls start yelling "Dibs," and," no he's mine." I rolled my eyes and pushed my way through the crowd. A couple of guys were eyeing me but not in a good way. What the actual fuck did they want? I just want to get this over with.

I quickly find my way to the office.

"Hey, mom."

"Hey, sweetheart hoe was your first day?"

"It was good, online school just isn't the same though."

"Hey, it's too late to change your mind now. How's dad? Is he good?"

"He's fine."

"Alright Give me a minute. I'll be a minute."

"All right."

I flopped down in the other reception chair. I just started online school.

It was boring. I wanted to go back to regular school. Honestly, I just wanna see Aries. I don't give a fuck about anyone else. Aries has been there for me you know. My lifeline, my best friend, the person I trust most in this world. He's my everything but sometimes...

God, I just wanna die. Why does the world have to be so unfair? Wanna know why I had to transfer to online school. Bullying. That's it. I would come home every night with bruises and scrapes. I'd tell my mom it was just from practice but she didn't believe me. I slowly started becoming a shell of my older self. Nobody really noticed accept Aries. He really helped me through all this.

I think I caught feeling because he was the only person who showed me kindness in such I long time I mistook it. I caught feeling because of that.

Honestly, if I didn't have such helicopter parents I probably would have committed. It's fine. I put a smile on my face each morning and tell my mom I'm fine.

Aries is the only person who cheeks up on me. Every hour he texts me. It warms my heart a bit to know someone cares. My "therapist" is a dick headed ass bitch who only thinks about how much money she can make off of families like mine. I need anti-depressants and anxiety medications but I don't get them because she doesn't think I need them. I've begged and pleaded with my mom to send me to a new one but she refuses. Her excuse is," A therapist is a therapist."

Which isn't true but okay. I honestly think ending it all wouldn't be so bad. I might hurt some people in the proses but they'll get over it, right?

"Hunter," my mom pulled me out of my thoughts. "Honey I've been calling you."

"Sorry."

I stood and stretched. We headed to the car. My mom asked the basic mom questions the whole way home. I really didn't want to talk to her right now but I didn't really have a choice.

Now at our "new home." I got out of the car.

I did all my studying at our old house. Dad had been here at the "new one" telling the movers where to put stuff all day. I walked into the house and searched for my room.

I found it. It's on the third, practically the attic. I love it. It's a whole two floors away from my parent's score. I opened the window. There was a small deck. I slid out of my window on to it. There was a beautiful view. I could already imagine myself sitting out here painting for hours.

A small wind blew past. I let myself relax. I looked out at the beautiful pond. It was covered by some trees but there was a small opening almost a pathway. I squinted trying to see. I stood and slid back through my window shutting it.

I walked downstairs to find my mom. She was sitting on the couch playing some dumb game on her phone. I looked at her. Do I really wanna talk to her right now?

"Mom."

"Yes?"

"Can I take a walk?"

"A walk where?"

"I don't know just a walk."

"Fine be back in an hour so you can unpack a little."

"Alright."

I set a timer and left.

I quickly turned on some Shiloh mix. It was a good relaxer for me. I walked down to the pond. It had the most gorgeous, clear, the water I'd seen in my life. I took a couple steps closer. The water moved slowly, I reached my hand down to touch it. It was ice cold.

I let it practically ingulf my hand before realizing I was gonna fall in. I pulled my hand out of the water and started to follow what looked like a trail.

I didn't know cherry blossoms grew here. A petal fell. I reached for it but it blew past my hand. Maybe moving here wasn't the worst idea. I rested against a stump and felt myself drifting.

About half an hour later:

I jumped my alarm scared the shit out of me.

I turned it off and started walking. I felt so much better going home now. I was generally excited. I walked past the pond once more and slowly made it back up the hill to my house. I unplugged my headphones and was about to open the back door when I heard arguing. Not just arguing straight-up fighting.

My mom was screaming at my dad for something. I couldn't quite make out the words but I knew it was getting ugly. I knocked on the door and then pointed at the knob pretending it was locked. My mom put on a fake smile. I could see right through her and she knew it.

"Sorry honey."

"It's fine. I'm gonna start unpacking."

I made an attempt to leave but my mom gripped my wrist.

"Hunter I love you."

"I love you too mom."

My voice sounded hollow and dry. Of course, my mom had my unconditional love but I didn't express it words. Well, most of the time.

She let go of my wrist letting me leave. I felt her eyes follow me down the hall. She was waiting for me to get to my room.

I closed the doot extra lowed so she could hear. I put my headphones back on and started my music. I made it extra low.

I opened a box. My band posters! I wish I could meet so many of these people. A ding from my phone interrupted my thoughts.

It was Aries.

(Hunter italics, Aries bold)

I miss you!!

I miss you too. Hows school?

How it normally anyway do you wanna hang out?

When?

Tonight?

What time?

like 10:30 ish?

alright. where are we meeting?

I kinda wanna see your new room so your place?

ok. don't come to the front door. I'll let you in through the back.

Yess.

I rolled my eyes and smiled at Aries's childlike wonder. I finished unpacking my stuff. Well, most of it. Everything but my painting, and art stuff.

"Hunter time for dinner."

"Coming."

I threw my phone quickly on my double bed. I made a dash for the door. Food.

After dinner:

After one of the most awkward, quiet dinners ever I headed back up to my room with some ice cream.

I plopped down onto my bed. I looked up at the ceiling. Uhh.

This is boring.

I dramatically rolled out of bed and open the window but before I could go out I heard scratching and a whine coming from my door.

"Hera!"

I ran and opened my door. My husky jumped on to me licking my face. My mom must have kept her in her room all day so she wouldn't attack the workmen.

Hera excitedly looked around and started sniffing. I giggled and called her. She turned her head and wagged her tail. I went out my window onto my little deck thing. The guard rails were hight enough for her to not fall. She hesitantly followed and sat in between my legs. I rested my head against her soft fur and petted her slowly. She turned her head and licked my face.

"Awe Hera gross," I laughed out.

What time is it? I checked my phone.

10:00

Aries will be here soon. I looked at Hera.

"Hera. Hera. Guess who's gonna be here soon," I said, in a baby voice.

She wagged her tail in response.

"Aries. Who wants to see Aries. You wanna see Aries?" I still had that stupid sounding baby voice on.

Hera wagged her tail and put her head in my lap with her belly exposed. She wiggled in anticipation. I softly chuckled and rubbed her belly.

Hera eventually got tiered of belly rubs and decided to continue sniffing the small deck space. I checked my phone again.

10:20

I pushed the window opened and called Hera to come in. She knew where we were going. She hopped in and I closed the window behind her. She ran downstairs. I slowly shuffled behind her.

As I reached the back door I saw a boy with blond hair and fair skin. He had a black hoodie on but nothing could cover up that hair. It was so blond it was almost white.

He walked up the steps. He had a black mask covering his face and all I could see were his violet eyes glistening in the dark along with his hair. I slowly pulled the door open and he entered. I signaled him to stay quiet and we made our way to my room. Hera was first to enter she was pacing back and forth waiting for me to shut the door. I shut it softly and she jumped onto him.

"Come on Hera let me at least get my sweatshirt off," his voice was sweet and kind.

Aries pulled off his hoodie and put his mask under his chin. He took a quick look around the room and then looked at me. He smiled and then sprung up from the floor, Hera knocked him down.

"Woah. It's nice. It's really nice I like it. I think it suits you."

"Thanks."

He looked at me. Suspicion grew in his eyes as he looked into mine.

"What happened?" His face got really serious like it always did when I had news.

"My parents..." I trailed off, avoiding eye contact.

Aries put a hand on my arm. I looked up into his violet eyes, which were looking bluer from the way the light was hitting them. He opened up and I took his hug.

"Do you wanna talk about it?"

"Not right now."

"Ok. Do you wanna sit?"

"We can sit on the deck," I said pointing toward the window.

Aries pulled out of our hug and grabbed a blanket.

"Let's go."

I opened the window and he slid out. I followed and so did Hera. Aries wrapped the blanket around himself and then invited me to like half cuddle with him. I put my head on his chest and he slowly rubbed my arm. I could hear his heart beating. I was worried when his heart rate suddenly speeds up.

"Aries. Aries? Are you alright?"

He started shaking. Like full on shaking and rocking back and forth. This wasn't unusual for me to see but it doesn't usually happen so suddenly. I quickly flip-flopped our position so I was the one who was cradling him. I put my arms under his and stopped him from shaking. He was breathing heavy still.

I started singing the only song that I knew would calm him down.

Don't fall asleep

I can't breath

break my heart in to

don't tell me, please

I need you

and you need me

so please don't leave

Aries breathing slowed and he relaxed in my arms. I rested my head on his shoulder.

"I thought I lost you for a second."

"You'll never lose me, but sometimes I lose myself."
