-He rolled his eyes yet again and frowned, shaking his head lightly. She sounded… so much like him; it was odd, a bit disconcerting. He wished he could just take her by the shoulders, shake her, and insist that things actually do eventually get better. But, he knew better than that. He knew she wouldn’t believe him.-

Whatever, if you want to believe that bullshit.

Have you ever just… Wanted it all to stop?

-She thought about it a lot. But fear stopped her. Every time she wanted to try and end her life… she just couldn’t.-

Heh, my life story in a nutshell?

-He smirks and scoffs lightly, shifting his weight to his other leg and recrossing his arms.-

Life sucked, I got sick of it, a certain redhead saved my dumb ass, and now I’m here thinking past me was an even bigger idiot than present me.

-Her sleeves continued to lower over her hands. Did the fabric ever end? Her past flashed before her eyes. She flinched-

Wish someone was there to save me…

-He made a sort of sound, caught between a disapproving snort and a short, noiseless laugh.-

There’s someone, you just haven’t found them yet. Or they haven’t found you. But they’re there. I was pretty sure I didn’t have anyone until that day.

I doubt it…

-Used and abused, that was Asher in a nutshell. Everyone came and went. They used her for whatever they wanted her for, then threw her away like garbage. Her arms kept record.-

-He half-frowns very slightly, honestly unsure of how to react to this girl’s reactions.  He fidgets a bit as he tries to think of something to say. ‘Comforting’ was never really his thing.-

I’m not going to bite, promise. Just calm down. Believe me when I say I know the situation you’re in.

-He rolls his eyes, almost unintentionally, at the thought of his hermit-like days in the past.-

-Her eyes move to his face, though they were still hidden by her hair.-

Really?

Mhmmm.

-He shrugs a bit and sticks his hands in his pockets, suddenly feeling awkward. He’ll explain if asked, but the whole subject of who he used to be still makes him feel… weird.-

I haven’t always been this lovely ball of fucking sunshine.

-He cracks a smirk with his sarcastic comment, hoping to make the girl seem a little less nervous.-

What happened?

-Her situation wasn’t exactly ‘normal’. She never talked about it. Not when it was happening, and surely not now. She had her own ways of dealing with things, and talking just wasn’t one of those ways.-

-A confused expression crosses his face. He never really associated his eyes with anything other than ‘weird’. Too bright, too large, and too blue to be normal.-

-God, she sounded stupid. She gripped her sleeves, and her chin went to her chest.-

There’s a lot in them…

Hm.

-He looks over the girl as she acts as if she’s trying to shrink into herself. He’s definitely confused. At first she acted cold and detached from the world, and now she’s timid and shy…?-

You’re acting like you’re afraid of me or something, what’s going on?

-Her chest tightens and she flinches. This is the most talking she’s done in a while, and, aside from classes, the longest she’s been outside of her dorm. She’s starting to get anxious, can already feel the tightness in her stomach. Her hands tremble slightly.-

Not good with people, I guess…
