Fic: Torn

( All Patrick can see is Pete’s tiny frame, the slope of his shoulders and the curve of his spine. He can see every inhale, heartbeat, blood pulse beneath skin and muscle and Pete could do anything right now and Patrick isn‘t sure he‘d care so long as he keeps breathing. )

He didn’t want to die and it wasn’t a suicide attempt. He was just sick of living.
Whenever people write that last line in a fic regarding Pete's 'not-a-suicide-attempt' it always makes my heart twist and ache. Your story is no exception, though everything you write makes my heart hurt. But that line, it just...it hits me hard, you know?
I love you so hard for this.

Everything about Pete's suicide attempt makes my heart clench, seriously. It's just, he's in such a complicated position with the band and fame and stuff and to be as emotionally unstable as he clearly is is actually really scary. I hope something fierce he doesn't self-destruct, at least not so bad that someone can't put him back together.
I love you too, o'course. ^^ *hugs*

This aches like it should, and I'm sad I've only just found it. (I don't know if you filter it this way (or what), but your entries never show up on f-list.) You've basically summed up the way I view their lives at that moment in them. The line about not wanting to kill himself? Amazing, and it rings so, so true.
