Drew's POV

I was very worried about Danny. I've never seen him break down like this. I'm usually the one who gets emotional. I raced to the kitchen and swiped my phone from the counter to text Amanda "Danny's going through a rough patch. Can you stay with your parents for a few more days?"

I shoved my phone into my back pocket and I ran to the little closet outside the bathroom where we kept bandages, creams, and stuff like that. I rummaged and managed to find some Hydrogen Peroxide, Triple Antibiotic Cream, and some Gauze Wraps. I felt my phone vibrate. I figured it was Amanda. I didn't care to read what she said I needed to help Danny. I walked back into the bathroom and Danny's eyes immediately shot open. He stood up and came over the sink next to me. "Can I see your arm?"

He said nothing and stretched it out in front of the sink. Then I untwisted the cap to the Hydrogen Peroxide. "Please don't hate me too much for this." I began pouring it over his cuts "oww!" Danny winced In pain

I quickly tilted the bottle up to stop pouring more, "Do you need me to stop?"

"No... just do It quickly!"

"Okay Okay." I quickly finished pouring the Peroxide on each cut then I rinsed his arm with water. I put some Antibiotic cream on each gash then wrapped his arm with gauze.

 "Thank you, Drew."

"No problem, let's go to the living room and talk."

Danny pulled down his sleeve and almost ran to the couch. I pulled my phone out of my pocket and checked to see if it was Amanda. It was. She said, "Yeah of course, Is he okay?"

I replied, "He is just a bit emotionally unstable right now, I don't want to embarrass him. He didn't want to tell me what was going on."

"Okay, just let me know if anything happens. love you."

"I love you too."

I went to the living room to see Danny sitting on the couch staring at the ground.

Danny's POV

"Drew, before you give me a lecture about not cutting myself. Please don't shame me for it, I wasn't thinking clearly when I was cutting. I want you to know that I'm not going to do it again I promise."

"I wasn't going to shame you. But I think you need to tell Laura. I won't force you but she needs to know."

"Yeah I know, but how am I supposed to tell her... Could you?"

"Sure."

I watched as Drew pulled out his phone and called Laura. I could only hear Drew's side of the conversation but I knew Laura would cry.
