Chapter 6

Hi Tay,
I so totally understand what U mean about music being a release. My release is in drawing. I luv drawing and painting too. Hee hee, sometimes I get lost in it, do you know what I mean? You probably do.
*snickers* guess what? I gave Dazza the best black eye you ever saw the other day. That'll teach him to try and cheat on his gf!

Taylor smiled for a moment, then...

~FLASH~

"I, I'm sorry Olivia. I didn't mean anything by it. I won't do it again."

"Oh sure, you didn't mean anything by it. That's what they all say."

"Please, I, I, honest to goodness! I truly didn't mean anything by it. I love you. No one could ever take your place."

"So why don't I believe you?"

~FLASH~

He put his hand to his face and tried to stifle the memory. He did not want to remember.

Anti-depressants? Suicide? U? To be honest I'm surprised U said that. U always seem to be so cheerful and happy and stuff...
Look, I'm not going to pressure U into telling me anything. But feel free to tell me anything, if only to get them off UR chest. I will always be here to listen. And if U want me to do anything for U, just ask.
~+~+ Moira +~+~

He felt a tear pricking at his eye as he remembered...

~FLASH~

"Tay? Where'd you get the black eye?"

Taylor shrugged.

"Oh just an accident with a bed post."

Isaac wagged a finger at him.

"If I were you I'd say something else when Mom and Dad ask you about that. They aren't going to like the words 'bed post'. Because they surely know it didn't happen here."

Taylor gave him a small smile.

"Yeah..."

~FLASH~

Taylor whimpered softly to himself and turned away from the e-mail. Tomorrow. He'd reply to it tomorrow.
