I TRY TO LAUGH ABOUT IT
the whole school recently found out about my dad and his problems. they all make jokes. everyone except y/n. i laugh at the jokes but they hurt.
COVER IT ALL UP WITH LIES
"yeah that was so funny" i say fake laughing. i saw y/n not laughing just looking at me shaking her head.
I TRY TO LAUGH ABOUT IT
i laugh until everyone is done. robin looks at me worried until someone cracks another joke and i have to fake laugh again.
HIDING THE TEARS IN MY EYES
that joke hurt bad. i get up and look at the floor with tears in my eyes. i quickly walk to the bathroom. i hide in the stall trying to calm myself down.
CAUSE BOYS DONT CRY
i can't cry. i was always taught boys don't cry. i zone out until i hear the door open. "finney?" y/n called out. i sniffled and opened the door.
BOYS DONT CRY.
"finney.." y/n mumbled and hugged me. that broke me i started sobbing. i cried for atleast 15 minutes. "i'm sorry y/n." "for what?" she asked. "crying." i mumbled. "why are you sorry" she asked. "cause BOYS DONT CRY." i say lowly. "finney boys can cry you can't keep it all in. it's okay finn" she said and hugged me again.
