The next day.

POV Corbyn

I woke up and Ashley was already out of bed. I went to my wardrobe and choose an outfit.

I went to the bathroom and did my hair and brushed my teeth

I went to the bathroom and did my hair and brushed my teeth. I went downstairs and saw my mom sitting on the couch. "Ashley and Jordan are already at school. They needed to go earlier. Today you don't have art you have that tomorrow today you have history," she said to me. "Okay," I said. I was about to get breakfast when I heard a door being opened.

I turned around and saw my dad standing there. "CORBYN MATTHEW BESSON! You're coming with me now!" he said and grabbed my wrist. He brought me to his office. "I'm going to beat you up so badly in the hope you'll die," he said and started kicking and slapping me very badly. After a while, he said: "I'm done," and walked away. I got up but couldn't walk properly anymore.

I went to the living room and my mom got up immediately. "Oh honey, you are not going to school today. Come I will help you get upstairs," she said and helped me getting upstairs. When we were upstairs I sat down on my bad. "I will be downstairs if you need something," she said and walked out of my room.

Skip to the afternoon.

I made a few drawings, one about Daniel, one of Jonah but then in colour and a few about happiness. I grabbed my phone and saw texts from Daniel, Zach, Jonah, Jack and Ashely. I didn't answer any text because I didn't feel like it.

I grabbed my guitar and some paper and a pen. I played some melodies on my guitar and started writing my song. After a while, I finished it and started to sing it.

We used to walk in the night watch the city lights changing
Now I look in your eyes and feel like a stranger
And I don't know why everything changing

You always took hold off me
So give me a smile and now I know your okay
These words on my mind I'm playing on them always
It don't feel right walking into old ways
And watching you fall down on me

'Cause I know in my mind there was something
And I know in my heart there was you

I see that look in your eyes fixed on another
Watch your fingers intertwine wrapped round your knuckles
Watch you laugh watch you cry
And know my words will never do
My dear I know we're alright so call me in the morning
Take a look in my eyes see a fire dawning
Take a match set alight to everything we ever knew
I'm holding onto something like you

Is it the look in your eyes that tells me all I knew
And I took on a fight I knew I'd always lose
Did I misread the signs your fingers slipping through?
I'll hold on tight just to let go of you
