.::Let Me Help You::.

Cass stares sadly at her computer screen. Her friend is having a really bad day, but he won't let her help him. It saddens her really, but try as she might she knows she'll never be able to get him to open up to her, even after all these years that they've known each other.
[01:20 A.M.]{Cass}: I wish I could help you, Jake.. I really do. But I can't help you if you don't let me help you.
[01:21 A.M.]{Jake}: I know, but it isn't that easy. Look, I'm going to bed. I'll be okay in the morning, honest.
[01:21 A.M.]{Jake} is now offline.
Cass sighs, and closes her laptop. "Dammit... Why can't I do anything to help him?" she mutters to herself, resting her head in her hands.

The next morning, Cass gets online to see if there are any new messages from her friend. Of course, there were none. She sighs a bit, and pulls up her game. She can't really concentrate on the game though, and the next thing she knows her character is dead. She closes the game going to message Jake.
[11:30 A.M.]{Cass}: Hey, Jake. I know you aren't online, but I want you to know that I'm, here for you. I always have been, even if sometimes it didn't seem like it. You were always here for me, so please, let me be here for you okay? I love you, you're like family to me..
