Hatred.

Another emotion that people don't want to experience and if so, run away from it and as far as possible. It only caused you more unnecessary aggression and sadness.

There was this strong passion, almost feeling like a burning fire inside of you for something or someone that could play with your feelings and easily hit your strongest yet weakest points whenever they wanted to.

It wasn't always for some reason. Sometimes it was unknown or just part of who you were. And sometimes it was intentionally, because that something or someone hurt you and reminded you of the bad memories that you tried so hard to push away, to never find it back ever again.

Or maybe it was because of a fight, rumor or they hurt someone else you deeply cared about. Because wouldn't you hurt those that hurt the people that you deeply cared about, if so even loved them?

Just remember, there's a very thin line between hatred and love.

So when Justin seemed to be distant again, Matthew knew that something was up and he wanted, no needed, to find out whatever the hell it was.

They were actually making progress together. Sure, they weren't friends yet. But they were at least acting normal and caring towards each other instead of calling each other some weird names, threatening and laughing at each other to nothing but embarrass the other one.

I sighed the moment I heard the bell ring which made me snap out of the day dream I was currently having and started to get up from my seat.

Lately I somehow couldn't and haven't been paying attention in class. Sure my grades were still okay, yet I couldn't take it anymore.

It started to annoy me that I was being tortured by my own thoughts lately, making me not want to eat anymore and stay awake at night. It was unfair, because I knew that I could never escape from my thoughts and I still hadn't really control over them, over my feelings.

I made my way towards the cafeteria, but I'm being stopped from walking by my old friend Alex which made me frown curiously.

"Hey, I wanted to invite you at my party tonight. I know you haven't been feeling okay lately so I think you really need this. It's at my home around 8" Alex told me, waiting for an answer.

"No sorry, I can't" I lied straight to him and bit my lip, hoping he wouldn't notice what kind of bad liar I was.

"Oh.. That's okay. If anything changes, you're still invited" He said and walked away from me probably to his friends, the gang where I used to go and hang out with.

I honestly don't know what exactly changed between us. Or well, I do. It was him. He made me realize that they weren't exactly the best friends that I had and they didn't exactly had a good influence on me either. I haven't gone to a party in ages.

I made my way towards the cafeteria, searching for my friends until I ran into someone instead, while feeling this slight familiar shock that I haven't been able to feel for months. I look up to see Justin standing right there in front of me.
