"gerard"

i said to gerard when i saw him outside the coffee shop

"i'm going to tell you something"

he nodded

"gerard, i'm sorry for my behavior last week"

"you don't have to —"

"i'm bipolar"

his jaw dropped but he immediately closed it

"i'm here to help you"

"gerard, i'm ashamed at myself,

why do you always have to be there when i breakdown?

i know that you're confused too about my switching behavior,

but gerard, i'm depressing,

i don't want you to get involved in my shitty mental health"

"look, y/n, i'm always here for you,

i'm always here to listen to you,

i will never let you feel miserable again,

you will never have to fake smiles anymore,

you will never feel unwanted anymore,

you can always lean on me everytime you're having a breakdown,

you will never have to be alone anymore,

you don't have to slit your skin just to make the voices stop anymore,

i'll lead you away your mind,

just trust me, y/n,

i'm always here for you,

i'll never get tired of you,

i'm here until you're okay again,

i already decided to be the part of your life since i made my way towards the swing your sitting in,

just trust me"
