Let's fall in love again

I sat in the room, still the first one again. Damn, was I always going to be the first one here!? However it was different this time because Mr. Way wasn't here before me. Other kids started filing in and taking seats, also a bit confused where Mr Way was. People started mumbling quietly to one another, probably curious where the group leader was. Mikey came in, looking gorgeous as usual, and as usual, sat next to me. After he gave me a ride home that one day, we've gotten to know each other a little. " Hi.. " he said, rubbing his eyes. " Hey.. " I mumbled quietly, my cheeks flushing. " Wheres Mr. Way? " Mikey asked, his eyes bloodshot. He didn't look so good.. His skin was fair, his hair was matted, and the circles under his eyes were extremely baggy. " I don't know " I say, tucking a piece of hair behind my ear. Suddenly a figure barges through the door. It's Mr Way. He doesn't look so good himself. His hands are filled with papers, and a cup of coffee, spilling everywhere. His eyes are red as well, looking like he's been crying. He also had a horrendous bruise under his eye and cut across his cheek. No one said a word. He dropped the coffee, spilling it everywhere. " Fuck.. " he mumbled picking up the scattered papers and trying his best to clean up the coffee. Silence fills the room. He runs his fingers through his sweaty hair, and buttons the last button on his shirt. " Sorry I'm late everybody, I fell on the way here.. " he says, taking a seat. " It's okay " I blurt out. Everyone stares at me, including Mr. Way. He smiles.

We continue out through the session. It was a pretty easy going day, no one had broken down into an emotional state. It was all going great. " Angel, I forgot to ask.. how are you parents? " Mr. Way says, smiling cheekily. God damn it why did he have to say that!? Memories of my parents came flooding back to me. Birthday parties, reading bed time stories as a kid, the accident. Tears started streaming down my face, everyone looking at me in confusion. I glance over at Mikey and he looks worried. " I-- excuse me " I say sniffling, getting up and barging out of the room. I cry, covering my face in my palms. Suddenly someone comes out and slides down on the wall next to me. It's Mr. Way. " Are you okay sweetie? Should I know something? " he asks. I didn't know him that well but he looked like someone I could open up to. " My parents died " I say. " Then why did you say your mom sent you here on the first day? " he asked. " Wanna hear a confession? I did it so people would laugh. So I would get noticed " I say, sniffling. He takes the hair out of my face and tucks it behind my ear. " Wanna hear my confession? I didn't trip and get these bad boys- " he says pointing to his bruises " It was from my wife " he says, placing his hand on mine.
