Chapter Seven

⚠️ TW: TALK ABOUT SELF HARM SKIP TO A/N IF YOU ARE TRIGGERED BY THIS⚠️

Sapnap POV

George, Clay, and I all just finished eating and the other two said they would clean up the dinner mess so I decided I wanted to take a shower.

I knocked on the bathroom door multiple times just to get no response. I stood there for a few minutes until all of a sudden I hear a drawer slam shut in the bathroom and seconds later Karl is running passed me holding his arms in a weird manner.

Seeing that kind of worried me but I just brushed it off and walked into the bathroom and hopped in the shower.

After I finished showering, I walk over to the bathroom counter with a towel wrapped around my waist and I look into the mirror at my reflection for a couple seconds before opening the drawer to grab my comb- only to see something I didn't expect nor want to see.

Karl POV

I shut my bedroom door and sit down sliding against it, moments later I hear the shower turn on, maybe that's why Sap needed to go into the bathroom.

Roughly 20 minutes later I heard the bathroom door open and footsteps slowly walking towards my room. All of a sudden there are knocks on my door and before I could let the person outside my bedroom door in they opened the door quickly and very loud which made me flinch.

It was just about pitch black in my room so I could see who it was but I could only assume it was George or Sap because of the obnoxious entrance. Then the light in my room turns on and I see Sapnap holding my bloody razor from earlier, and tears on his face.

"Karl Jacobs, is this your razor?" Sapnap questioned very, very seriously.

"i- uh-yeah it is," I mumble praying he didn't hear me, but he did.

Sapnap walks over to me slowly and grabs my arms, then gesturing as if he is asking for consent to look.

I nod and he rolls up my sleeve to see my arm littered in fresh cuts littered all over my arm. Sapnap stared at my cut up arm for a minute before he looks up into my eyes, his eyes being red from crying.

"Don't cry-" I start before he cuts me off, "Why would you do this Karl??"

I am kind of taken aback by his sudden tone but it makes sense, someone you like a lot hurting themself, god knows why, and finding out because you saw their bloody razor they didn't bother trying to clean nor hide.

"I don't want to talk about it tonight, can we talk tomorrow?" I ask because I wasn't mentally prepared for any of this.

"Sure, take your time but please talk to me Karl I- I care about you a lot." he sounds even calmer then he did when we were talking before about what our relationship was.

Sapnap POV

I don't understand why Karl did this but I know of one thing that makes us both feel better, arson. Tonight I am going to make sure he forgets about all of this and has the most fun he has had in a long time.
