This is a cross-posted excerpt, and I don't feel like writing any back story.
"I started to make the list and realized that I'll get the back of anyone I consider a friend, if it comes to a fight. That's just what you do. Norvell taught me that, oddly enough. He's unreliable, exaggerates when he doesn't tell flat-out fabrications, and I know without a shadow of a doubt that he has my back in a fight. Unquestioning, because that's who he is. He protects his friends, because that's what you do."
Something is wrong, right now. Something is very not-right. And I can't do anything to help him. Worse then that, when he called, after a few minutes of incoherent babbling I hung up on him. And when he IM'd me I didn't respond. I didn't know what else to do, I couldn't talk him down or even get him to acknowledge that I was real. All I could do was call someone else and have them talk to him.
I fucking hate myself right now.
You always help your friends, because that's what you do.
