Landon | Hope
[ ... ] That's fair. But I do know you've been through shitty things, Landon. I know you've suffered. I didn't leave because I didn't think you'd understand, I left because it hurt so badly that the only way I knew how to get rid of it was to inflict pain on something else. I thought I needed to work that out on my own so no one else got hurt—which is why I didn't tell anyone, not even my friends who wouldn't even be my friends without you—but I ended up hurting people in a completely different way.
