A/N: I know I suck guys but it's fairly difficult trying to keep up with school and band because I suck and have band. The only reason I even have that class as this point is because I'm used to it and I kind of hate the rest of the world... Oops. Anyways, this is something again to keep my mind off of more destructive ways to use my depression so there you go. Keep in mind this is complete in my head. I kind of also just bashed everyone here so sorry.

So maybe he had no one.

Maybe no one cared.

That didn't matter.

All he ever wanted was to prove them wrong.

It was only a matter of time before he gave it all up.

There was no need to try to please people who would always try to antagonize you.

There was no need to prove anything to them because they were not an important part of his life.

There was no need to keep the ties he had with them, intact.

There was no need for them.

The only person he would ever need was himself.

The fact that he realized this and left made them see all their wrong deeds.

The fact that he no longer sought their approval came as a blow.

Never would they have thought that he could leave them so easily.

Never would they have thought that they could become so insignificant.

They would have never believed that there would come a day when they would seek him out only for his approval.

They would have never thought that the person they once shunned could become so important.

They would have never thought that they would want his forgiveness.

Never would they have thought any of this... until they found out that the person they shunned was the one allowing them their opportunities... and that he would lay fighting for his life in an ICU because of an assassination attempt.

Never would they have thought... until they opened their eyes and saw the gruesome reality of the world.

Never would they have thought any of this until they realized just how pure a heart could be.

Never would they have thought this until that pure person's light dimmed and with him went their dreams and regrets.

Never would they have thought until those cobalt blue eyes lay unseeing.

Never would they have thought...

Until that person's fire grew weaker with the passage of time.

Never would they have thought...

Never...
