I quickly stood up from my bed and clamped a hand over my mouth to drown out the horrific scream that erupted from my mouth,
"Oh god!" I cried out as my friends ran over to me,
"What do we do?!" Allison asked panicked, but before anyone could actually DO anything the cuts vanished... healed up in a second. my mouth dropped in shock,
"What the hell?!" I practically screamed, what was that? everyone looked around at one another in worry and suddenly a name I hadn't spoken, bubbled up past my lips in shock.
"Derek." I whispered, immediately knowing something was wrong.

*Dereks POV*
Every day.
It would happen every damn day.
Every time she would cut herself the wound would form on me. Bleeding out rapidly until the cuts would heal minuets later.
I've never heard if this happening before to mates... But I guess there's a first for everything.
So today I decided to show Marcey what was going on, I knew If I would have called her to tell her what was going on it would just go to voicemail... like it has every other time.
I inwardly sighed as I turned off the water and wrapped a towel around my waist and tiredly rubbed my eyes, I have been mentally and physically drained sense Marcey left. I can't stand it.
I closed the bathroom door and entered mine and Marcey's... or I guess just mine... room.
I immediately became aware of another person beside me being in my room, I switched on the light switch and had to hold back an eye roll as I saw Cora sitting on the edge of my bed.
"What Cora?" I asked, my voice edgy and scratchy from silently crying for these past 5 days.
I heard her sigh,
"Isaac, Jessica and I are tired of pretending that we don't smell the blood every time you take a shower Derek. what's going on?" Marcey always took her showers at the same time every day; so I planned it so I did too. that way blood won't get everywhere. I shot Cora a glare,
"I'm not cutting, if that's what you're thinking." It wasn't necessarily a lie, "what would be the point in that? I'm a guy. I don't need that shit... and you should go out with Isaac and Jessica; go stay at a hotel tonight and stay up playing at the arcade. be teenagers. I have... things to do..." I hesitantly said the last part; not wanting my sister to catch on. but by the look on her face she did,
She sighed as she looked up to me with worried eyes.
"You're just going to go screw some girl? Der, that's not healthy." I cringed slightly at the name Marcey would always call me, but never less; I pulled on my leather jacket and gave her a curt nod,
"I'll be back late, but not too late... so be out by then unless you wanna hear it all." I walked out of the room and outside to the elevator; yes it hurt me to do this... But I have to move on in the mean time. I have to.

I have been doing shots all night, trying to drink away my worries. and so far I have been doing a pretty good job of it. some girl bumped into me and I turned around and grabbed her by the waist, she looked surprised at first but her shocked face turned up to one of pleasure quickly.
"Hey baby doll." I purred to her, she grinned at me. "wanna come back to my place?" I asked, deciding to cut right to the chase. she nodded,
"I'd love to. and you're name?" I have her a sloppy grin,
"Derek. yours sexy?" she let out a laugh,
"Jennifer."

*Marceys POV*

I buried my head in my hands as I explained everything to my three best friends in the whole world. not being able to hold it in any longer.
There was a knock at my door and my dad walked in,
"Hey baby...." he saw I was crying an his eyes widened in surprise, "oh uh... there's a friend for you at the door... do you want me to send her up?" I slowly lifted my head and looked at my dad with a weird expression,
"Her?" my dad nodded, "oh uh... yeah. send her up." I quickly ran my fingers under my eyes to dry my tears, I heard footsteps coming up the stairs and I felt shock take over my body as she stepped into my bedroom,
"What are you doing here?" I asked, surprised she knew where I lived.
"I need answers." she demanded, I let out a dry laugh,
"Don't we all?" she gave me an 'I'm not kidding' look, so I just raised my eyebrows,
"What do you want to know?" I asked, all the humor leaving my voice,
"I need to know everything that was going on between you and Derek." Cora said.
