"How has your week been?" Doctor Gram gave me a hesitant look.

My eyes had been turned to look out the window since I came into his office. My arms were folded over my chest as I sat there feeling numb. I must have looked like absolute shit because I sure felt like it.

"I don't want to talk about it," I finally responded after a long excruciating silence.

"Isn't that why you came here in the first place?" He tried to joke, but it only made me angry.

"No," I glared at him, letting my emotions run free. "I'm here because a judged forced me into it!"

Doctor Gram's eyes narrowed at me and he shook his head disapprovingly. "I thought we were passed that, Calum. I thought you liked coming to these sessions."

"Yeah, because I just love talking about my feelings," I grumbled.

"Obviously not." He threw his notepad down on the table, leaning forward in his chair. "Do you want to tell me why Skyler isn't here today?"

My jaw clenched at just the sound of her name, and I could feel tears as they burned the backs of my eyes. "No."

He sat back with a sigh. "I told you to be weary of her."

"She isn't the problem!" My voice raised an octave. "It's that fucking maniac of a boyfriend she has!"

This was a place where I could share my feelings, right? So that's exactly what I was going to do. I didn't care if anyone passing by outside the office could here me yelling.

"He told her!" I stood from my seat and paced the carpeted floor. "And that fucking prick thought it was funny. He stood there and laughed, not caring that he just destroyed everything!"

Doctor Gram didn't say anything as I continued. "What am I supposed to do now, huh?"

"My father hates me and now Skyler feels exactly the same way!" I pulled at my hair angrily. "I can't believe I've lost her just like that."

"She couldn't even look at me!" I cried. "She must think I'm a monster."

"Calum," Doctor Gram spoke calmly as I wiped what tears had fallen from my cheeks. "Please take a seat."

I did as I was told, my leg bouncing up and down nervously as I stared up at him, adrenaline still pumping through my veins from my outburst.

"As much as you think Skyler hates you, I can't quite see her walking away from you just like that."

I bit at my lip anxiously as he continued. "You are the only person who has taken the time to try and actively help her. Her trust in you may have wavered slightly at the news, but I'm sure her feelings for you will over power that."

"She-" I could feel my cheeks redden at his words. "She has feelings for me?"

He shook his head as he tried to keep his face as straight as possible. "I'm not at liberty to say."

"You really know how to reassure a guy," I spoke, feeling myself start to relax for the first time since leaving Skyler's house a couple days ago.

He nodded his head once, chuckling slightly. "I do my best, Mr. Hood."
