The Friend He Needs
A one shot nobody asked for, but oh well.
Justin felt empty on the inside. He sat on his bed, wondering of all the things his father won't ever be able to see him do: blow up on any social media platform, become internet-famous, go onto the Eileen DeSelfish show, join the misfits. The thoughts cluttered around his mind slowly transitioned into tears as Justin moves his knees closer to his chest. He placed his head gently onto his knees and began to quietly sob. But this wasn't the only reason why he was crying.

The gentle sobs on his knees turned into hysterical sobbing. Justin grabbed the necklace his father gave him, felt for the note, and gently placed it between his face. I'm so sorry, father! He thought. I'm so sorry I failed to be your perfect little son!

He told himself. It should've been obvious. However, Colin won't leave this room until Justin feels better.
After a few seconds of no response, Colin gently placed a hand in Justin's shoulder. "Justin.. do you need a hug?"
And just like that, Justin quickly threw his head onto Colin's chest, his arms wrapped around his back. Colin was taken back for a moment, before he placed one hand on the back of Justin's head and the other on his back, gently holding his bestie and muttering "it's okay" quietly.
