Michi's frowned deepened. She couldn't chastise him for destructive behavior when she was just as guilty. "It's a crutch," she shrugged. "It's just... I know, we all do it, but to a certain extent. There are people who care about you and if you keep at this you could really hurt yourself. I don't know, maybe that's your goal."

"Do you know how many times I've thought the same exact thing? I wish I wasn't bi. I wish I wasn't pregnant. I wish I had a father who loved me. I wish I wasn't the way I am. But the sooner you except it... the better it gets. You don't have to hate yourself forever."

"There are a lot of people that would be better off without me around, too." He sighed, though, slouching in his chair was he stared at the wall. "Sometimes I wouldn't mind if everything just stopped. I think the world would be better off."

But then he was listening to her again, frowning as he shook his head. From his point of view, at right that moment...there wasn't any way for it to get better. "My mum won't ever speak to me again. I won't be allowed home. How's that supposed to be getting better?"

"Even if you can come off as a bit of an asshole, you make things around here a little more colorful," she gave him a grin but she felt like doing anything but grinning.

"I'm sorry, I really am. You can always keep it quiet from your family, but you've got to accept it for yourself," she shifted a little on the bed and took a deep breath. "I know. It sucks. You can't make anyone else accept it, but you can be happy with the choices you make."

"Come on," she said standing up. "Hug it out," she smacked his shoulder and held her arms open.
