The Woods {Kaylor}

Story.

Karlie's pov:

She scurries off to the bathroom and I follow quickly. She catches a glimpse of her new, smooth skinned back "B-but I-how did this happen?" She asks confusedly now staring at me

"I..I don't know" I reach out to touch her back but it burns me "Shit!" I pull my hand back

"What?!" She looks at me worriedly

"Your back is hot!" I rush to turn on the sink

She narrows her eyes "Karlie that's not funny"

"What? Taylor no! I mean it's literally hot! It burned my hand" I now run it under cold water

She gives me a weird look before touching her own back "I don't feel anything..except like throwing up" she mutters

"Are you cold anymore?" I ask

She shakes her head, still staring at her back in the mirror

"Do you know why you're like this suddenly?" I ask. I don't know whether to be scared or not. I mean it's obviously not normal. But I know for a fact that she's scared out of her mind right now, and it wouldn't help if I was too. But maybe I am a little frightened.

"No" she shakes her head

"I know you want to figure this out.."

She nods

"So I have an idea..but you won't like it."

-

She sits on the bathroom counter as I stand in front of her

We're both now fully dressed

A knife is held in my hand "Ready?"

She nods

I kiss her forehead hoping to comfort her. It seems to work as she smiles softly

I then grip her arm gently and move it over the sink

Her eyes squeeze shut, waiting for the pain to happen. I look down at her arm in my now tight grip. This is hard. My knife barely touches her skin when she whimpers "On the count of three. 1-" I Drag my blade across her arm quickly

"Ah!" She screams in pain and surprise. I tried not to make it too deep but at least deep enough to really test what ever is going on "Dammit Karlie" she stares at me angrily "You said on three!"

I pull my knife away to see blood pouring out of her arm and into the sink "You would've pulled away if I had done three"

"Did you really have to do it so deep?" She looks up at me with tears in her eyes

"Again, I know you want to figure this out as much as I do. I made the scar just as deep as the ones that are on your back. Were on your back I mean. Anyways, don't worry did you forget you brought the first aid kit?" I ask with a slight chuckle. She's always prepared

She glances at the small case next to her left hip

"How long do you think we're supposed to wait?" I ask

"My back took months I'm not sure why it chose now to heal" she states

I stare at her arm that I still hold over the sink

"But I'm not going to bleed out right?" She asks after a few seconds of silence

I look down at her "Of course not Tay don't be ridiculous. Lets just wait a few minutes" I stare at her scar intensely as I feel her eyes on me

She continues to stare

"What?" I ask

"Can you tell me a story?" She asks childishly
