Bennet climbed onto the crowded concert bus and managed to find a seat next to his best friend and twin brother Trev. Having only briefly surveyed the bus from the outside, Bennet took the time to breathe it all in. The bright lights, the blaringly loud music, the 2 hippies sitting in the back seat smoking, and all the other Backroom Jackson fans who were waiting anxiously in their seats for the bus to start rolling its way to the concert. The atmosphere of the tour bus reminded Bennet faintly…

ever since I lost my best friend. I believed that there was something truly wrong with me. I never thought that perhaps I was the one who needed to change her personality and her mindset in order to keep a steady healthy relationship. I loathed any time I had to spend alone, so I would either spend time with the wrong people or I 'd waste my time alone. I typically spent time with the people who did not make an effort to benefit me as an individual, and honestly these friends could care less…
almost always an old family friend, priest, or father. They gain the trust of their prey, usually a young girl or boy, through gifts or saying they will babysit the kid. Then the adult starts to ask the kid to touch them in the special place, saying something along the lines of, “Don’t worry.
