Abby's P.O.V
I made three cuts. I cried each time I did one. I can't I'm cutting again....
The Next Day:
I made sure that I wasn't wearing any short sleeves. I can't let Jack see that I am cutting again.
"Hey," Jack said.
"Hi," I said.
"Do you want to do anything today?" I asked.
"No thanks. I rather just stay here and watch tv," I said.
"Come on you need to go out," he said
"No thanks," I said.
"Are you sure?" he asked.
"Yeah," I said. He sighed.
"Well I'm going to hang out with Beth today, see you later."
He walked out. I don't understand why he is so mad. I mean is it that bad if I don't want to go out. I sat and watch TV. I looked at my phone a few times, no texts.
1 hour later:
Jack still wasn't home. I was so bored. I didn't know what to do. A few minutes later I got a call. Jack.
~Phone Call~
"Hi," I said.
"Hey, I'm going to be late home is that okay?" he asked.
"Yeah, no problem."
"Okay. See you later. Love you."
"Love you too."
~End of the Phone Call~
What is there to do? I went to the bathroom. I opened the draw that hide my blade. I picked up my blade and stared at it. I put the blade to my skin. What was I doing?
I didn't know what I was doing...all I know is that I started cutting.
Jack's P.O.V
"Why isn't Abby here?" Beth asked.
"I don't know. I guess she's not in the mood to go out. I don't know it's like ever since her dad left she's been acting very strange," I said.
"Oh," she said.
"Yeah. I just wish she can tell me what's wrong," I said.
"I think that we should go back to your house and check on her," she said.
"Yeah, okay."
Abby's P.O.V
I sat on my phone. All of sudden I see Jack and Beth coming through the door.
"Hey!" Beth said.
"Hi?"
"We just wanted to come here and check on you," Beth said.
"I'm good," I said.
"Yeah...but we don't want to leave you here all alone," she said.
"Thanks," I said.
"No problem," she said.
"Well I'm just going to go to the bathroom, be right back."
I went into the bathroom. Why are they here? Was this Jack's or Beth's idea? Oh who am I kidding, of course it was Beth. Jack didn't even look like he wanted to be here.
I grabbed my blade.
Beth's P.O.V
"I will be right back Jack," I said.
"Where are you going?" he asked.
"I'm just going to check on Abby," I said.
"Okay," he said.
I walk to the bathroom. I heard Abby crying. I opened the door.
"What the hell!"
Abby's P.O.V
I looked to see Beth.
"Beth!"
"What are you doing?!" she asked.
"Nothin-Nothing!"
She closed the door.
"What is this?" she asked. She picked up my blade.
"Okay....I've been cutting," I said.
"Why?"
I really didn't know how to answer that.
I just shrugged.
"I have to tell Jack about this," she said.
"Wait! No, no, no, no, you can't do that!"
"And why shouldn't I?" she asked.
"Beth please," I said.
"I can't let you just keep self-harming yourself," she said.
"Since when did you start caring about me?" I asked.
"Ever since I've been with Marcus. He's been teaching me how to be nicer to people," she said.
"And if you want to become a lot nicer to me than you would not tell Jack about this," I said.
"I don't know..."
"Please," I begged.
"Fine."
This was a decision I will soon later regret. Keeping this secret ,from Jack might be the stupidest thing I will ever do, but I just can't tell him...
