    Summary

    Patrick’s tired.

    He’s tired of the words, the kicks, the insults, the stares, the looks…he wants it all gone. He wants someone to hold him, to tell him everything's going to be okay, that he means more then what was whispered behind his back or what's littered on the school’s bashing page. He wants his mom...he wants Pete..., he just wants it all to stop ...

    But, when the one person he believed in lashes out with alcohol tainted venom dripping from his tongue, the words ringing in his ears (“Just deal with it, Patrick”), Patrick takes matters into his own hands, and Pete is left to deal with the aftermath and the guilt.

    Whoever said "True love makes everything better" needs to get punched in the throat for that lie.
