"NICOLE WAKE UP OR YOULL BE LATE!" My mother screams from the bottom floor,I slowly open my eyes and realize my arms and legs are covered in blood so I run a quick shower to rinse myself off while trying not to cry. I couldn't manage to find anything nice quickly that would be able to cover my scars so I put on a black hoodie aa pair of grey sweats and moccasins on my feet and ran out the door. I checked my phone but made sure my wifi was off so I wouldn't get any Facebook notifications,and I clicked on my messages and there was one from Ashton asking if I was alright......I think if I replied saying yes I'd just make things worse on myself.

Once I reached the school I went in through the back entrance and snuck into English class where I sat down beside Ashton. He gave me a concerned look and I just shoved my head into my arms.
After our teacher gave us the lesson she let us work independently for the rest of class,good thing because I wasn't planning on doing anything today anyways. Still with my head shoved into my arms I felt Ashton's hand touch the back of my head,kind of like he was petting me,which made me smile a little.
Ashton's P.O.V
As she lifted her face from between her arms my heart sunk it absolutely sunk,her eyes were puffy and she looked like Someone stole her light.
"Nicole what are all these rumours about?do you know why they started?"I asked while pushing a piece of her hair back behind her ear.
"No I honestly have no idea" she lifted booth arms to wipe the tears from her eyes,revealing deep red cuts on her wrists.

The bell rung signalling the end of first period, Nicole was walking slightly In front of me but I grabbed her arm and pulled her into the janitors closet.As she hissed.
"What are you doing Ashton?" She looked at me confused
"Lift up your sleeves Nicole"
"No,what the hell Ash" she says just before she is about to storm out,I lifted my sleeves revealing my own scars.
Her eyes opening in utter shock as she falls to the ground.
"You are so perfect though Ashton,don't you realize that?" She asks me as I kneel down in front of her
"I could ask you the same thing beautiful" I say as I pull up her sleeves and rub my thumb back and forth over her cuts,reassuring her that I'm here.
