Help me, it feels like the walls are caving in. Sometimes I feel like giving up, but I just can't, it isn't in my blood.

"God Henry! You let criminals escape! Do you know how much this cost us!"

I let them escape. Me. I was too tired to chase them. We had been up all night. We were finally closing in on the last members of the Bilsky Bandits, some of the worst criminals in town, and I let five escape.

Laying on the bathroom floor, feeling nothing. I'm overwhelmed and insecure, give me something I could take to ease my mind slowly.

I walk into the bathroom and lock the door. I climb into the bathtub, after grabbing the bottle of sleeping pills.

Just have a drink and you'll feel better, just take her home and you'll feel better. Keep telling me that it gets better, does it ever?

When I looked to Charlotte for help, she looked down. She agreed. I'm a failure.

Help me, it feels like walls are caving in. Sometimes I feel like giving up, no medicine is strong enough.

I uncap the bottle and pop a pill in my mouth.

Someone help me, I'm crawling in my skin. Sometimes I feel like giving up, but I just can't, it isn't in my blood. It isn't in my blood.

I think for a second before swallowing. Is this right?

"Henry, if you had just done your job right, we would have had the Bilsky Bandits!" Rai yelled.

"I'm sorry Rai." I mumble.

"Sorry's not going to fix your failure Henry!" Rai roared.

No. This was right. Rai didn't care about me anymore. He admitted it. I'm a failure. Tears rolled down my cheeks.

I'm looking through my phone again, feeling anxious. Afraid to be alone again, I hate this. I'm trying to find a way to chill, can't breathe.

I pick up my phone to see if Rai texted me, apologizing or if Charlotte or Jasper cared enough to check up on me.

Nothing.

Is there somebody who can help me? It's like the walls are caving in. Sometimes I feel like giving up, no medicine is strong enough.

I swallow a hand full more sleeping pills. The world was starting to grow fuzzy now.

Someone help me, I'm crawling in my skin. Sometimes I feel like giving up, but I just can't, it isn't in my blood. It isn't in my blood.

I lay back into the bathtub. I was so tired.

I pour the rest into my mouth and swallow hard.

I need somebody now.

I hear a banging at the door.

"Henry! Open up please! I'm so sorry!" Charlotte yells.

I need somebody now.

"Kid! Please! I'm so sorry! You're not a failure. You're amazing!" Rai yelled.

Someone to help me out.

"Henry! Open up, we're so sorry!" Jasper yelled.

I need somebody now.

Tears poured down my eyes.

They didn't mean that.

Help me. It feels like the walls are caving in. Sometimes I feel like giving up, but I just can't, it isn't in my blood.

"Henry! Please! Open up! Please!" I heard Charlotte beg.

If they cared, they would have stuck up for me.

It isn't in my blood.

My eyes began to grown heavier.

It isn't in my blood.

My friends voices grew quieter.

I need somebody now.

I silently wished someone was there to hold my hand.

It isn't in my blood.

But of course, the only people I'd want with me, betrayed me.

I need somebody now.

I heard Rai, trying to bust open the door.

It isn't in my blood.

As my eyes slipped close, I hear Rai finally break through. He screams my name as he rushes over. He grabs my hand.

I got my wish.

Oof that was sad. I know it was short, but I talked to the requester and they wanted short but sad instead of long with a happy ending. I hope you guys liked it. This was for @mintyjazz
