Clay pov
After a few minutes, I left the bathroom and saw drista opening the door. She quietly ran over to me and pulled me into a huge hug. I was blinking really hard trying not to cry. She took my arm and looked at the deep marks I caused.
"I'm sorry Drista. I'm so so so so sorry."
"Clay, why did u do this?" she questioned.
"I could not cope any more. I have hurt the one I love and I hurt his best friend. I deserve to die." I cried.
"No Clay. Your OK. It is going to be ok. Is that him over there?"
"Yes. He is most kind, innocent, sweet, handsome boy ever."
" it's OK. It's OK. You will be OK. Just promise you won't do this again clay."
"I promise Drista. Thank you for coming here at stupid am."
"Anything for you bro."

I fell asleep with my sister sat next to me. I don't know what I would do without her here with me.

Georges pov
I screamed loudly as I looked around rapidly. Through the tears I saw a girl walking towards me. I backed up and started screaming.
" LEAVE ME ALONE! LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE!" my lungs hurt from my screaming.

Karl came towards me and I accidentally scratched him trying to push him away. I stood up and ran towards the bathroom. I locked the door and cried and screamed.

Images of my farther kicking, punching and injuring me and my sister ran through my head. I started screaming about it out loud and my vision went black.

"GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM ME. DON'T HURT HER. HURT ME AND NOT HER. LEAVE GEORGIA ALONE. PLEASE. PLEASE. PLEASE. PLEASE." I couldn't help it any more. I just screamed ignoring the banging sound coming from the other side of the door. After my vision cleared, I slowly but surely opened the door. I could not talk but Karl ran to me and hugged me. I flinched and went to my sleeping bag where I fell almost instantly to sleep with Karl humming to me.

Karl pov
Once george was asleep, I went back to clay, Sap and the girl who I later found out was drista, clays sister. They all seemed worried sick about george. I decided it was time to explain the whole story and prepared myself for what was to come.

"George has had a very traumatic past and PTSD. He, his mother, sister and father had a perfect relationship. One day his father came home drunk and beat george and his sister up and locked them in a dark room. This became a common occurrence and george ended up self harming to relieve the stress. His mother called the police on his father and he is in jail for 20 years because of child abuse. He has so many nightmares and this caused the Nyctophobia. He still crys a lot because of it and the bullying has not helped with this. If anything, it added additional stress onto my poor friend. He never admitted it to you because he didn't want you to get angry and hurt him more. "I was crying by the end of the story. I could not cope to see my best friend like this.

He always tried to put a smile on his face to cheer you up. Even when he was sad, he tried to help.

Clays pov
I was speach less. I couldn't say anything. I just started to cry whilst hugging drista.
How could anyone hurt my Georgie so much.
"I will not bully him again. All of us will be able to help him get through this." Sap said. I agreed but didn't say anything. I was speach less.

All I did was walk towards George and I sat next to him, messing with his hair. He looked so peaceful sleeping and I can't believe I ever bullied him.

Soon after, my sister left and Sap went to the bathroom to shower. Nows my time to talk to Karl.

" Hey em Karl. Can I please talk to you about something but don't tell the others."i asked.
" OK. What's up clay? "
" Well first off I am gay and I like George. And well I wanted to ask you if he likes me? And does George like stargazing?" I questioned. I felt awkward talking about it.
"Omg. I knew it! Don't tell George I said this but he does. He talks about you all the time. Me and George went star gazing once. He really enjoyed it but make sure if u go, you bring really strong flashlights so it is not too dark for him."
"Thank you karl."
"No problem. Make sure you take care of him."

George's pov
I woke up a few hours later and I felt a bit better. The nightmares were getting worse and I can't help but worry about my sister.
I decided to call her because I was worrying.
Ring ring ring
" Hello Gogy. How are you? "
" Not good Georgia. I had a nightmare and you got hurt and he was back and.."
"Gogy, I need you to take a deep breath for me. You're ok. I'm OK. He is not here."
"thank you. I just had to make sure you were ok"
"Gogy, you need to go and find Karl and let him help you calm down. OK? Goodbye."
"OK. Thank you sis. Bye"

I hung up and found Karl talking to clay. I started crying whilst hugging him and explaining why I called my sister and he hummed heatwaves to calm me down.

I slowly closed my eyes and I felt myself getting lightly pushed to the right. I laid my head on their chest and they laid down.

I felt really relaxed (for a change) and it didn't take me long to fall asleep on their chest. The last thing I heared was clay whispering "sleep well Georgie"
