Intro

You and Lars had been friends since you were both born, you knew he had a hard time with his parents, when his mother died at child birth and his father never really cared about him, but that didn't stop you from being their for him every second.

You never once left his side, even when he got a fake doll and named her Bianca, his doctor told him it might help with the struggles in his life. It was a little weird at first, but you knew he needed something to help him, so you slowly got used to it.

As you were at his place, he started having a small episode with his Disorders, you sat quietly on the couch, letting him get it out. You'd step in if anything escalated, and slowly it started to. He started to twitch more, blink more frequently and didn't look at you once.

You slowly walk over to where he was sitting and kneeled in front of him, making sure not to touch him

"Hey, whats going on?"

He sat quietly, eyes blinking rapidly as he tried to scoot the chair back, but he was already against the wall.

Lars

Lars twitched slightly, scared you'd touch him.

"I'm.. I'm fine, I'm okay.." he mumbled, but you knew he wasn't, he never was.

You were scared of course, your friend is struggling and you can't really do anything. You try to talk to him, but he isn't listening, just zoning out, eyes blinking in that rhythm that it always does.
